“If you buy one gold (Anmerkung: & silver) stock this year… make it this one”
SNIFFING OUT SOME FAVORED GOLD AND SILVER MINERS FROM A DIGGERS AND DRILLERS TEASER, Posted on November 10, 2011 by Travis Johnson, Stock Gumshoe
...
And there was one other stock teased — let’s see if we can identify that … and if it’s tradeable outside of Australia.
Here are Cowie’s clues:
“Few mainstream analysts realise this silver start-up is already producing
“I’m very bullish on silver right now, and this Brisbane outfit is the first Aussie stock to start producing silver.
“But none of this is reflected in this little stock’s share price… yet.
“A few months ago it started pouring giant silver bars. In fact, I was at the mine recently watching them do just that.
“But there’s some urgency in this opportunity too.
“You see, before the end of this year they will be in full flow, producing 1.5 million ounces of silver a year.
“I actually saw them pouring molten silver into giant moulds. This one could be a real winner!
“If you think silver is going up, this could be a great way to accelerate those silver profits.”
So … Thinkolator sez, this is: Alcyone Resources (AYN in Australia, ALCYF on the pink sheets). And yes, it is technically possible to buy the stock on the pinks, but be careful — it doesn’t necessarily trade every day, and even when it does trade it’s sometimes only $1,000 or so worth of shares in a given day. It’s a small company, market cap in the neighborhood of $100 million, but it does trade reasonably well in Australia.
And yes, it is a silver producer — but it’s more of a “restart” than a “start-up” … this is the rebirth of a company, Macmin Silver, that effectively went bankrupt building a silver mine that had operational problems at the same time that the global financial crisis hit three years ago. They were recapitalized as Alcyone The mine is the Twin Hills silver mine near Texas, Australia (in Queensland), and it is only about 150 miles from Brisbane and they are “on their way” to an annual production rate of at least 1.5 million ounces of silver with a fairly recent startup of operations. They’re also exploring pretty actively in the area of the Twin Hills mine, hoping to boost the mine life to at least a decade with additional resources, and they seem to have quite a few targets in the Texas area for additional exploration. The stock has been trading up and down in line with silver as that metal has bounced around a bit, and
Oh, and the picture of pouring molten silver that Cowie used in his ad is also exactly the same pic that Alcyone uses in one of its presentations … just in case you need a little more confirmation. There’s a quick article about the recommissioning of the mine here from the West Australian, sounds like they still have some work to do to create a sustainable mining operation but they are producing nicely from the tailings stockpiles and they do have a plan. And no debt, thanks to the recapitalization, so hopefully they can fund their ongoing operations from cash flow from this point. Beyond that, I don’t know much about them.
So there you have it — a couple gold and silver stocks that Alex Cowie is excited about, and they do sound like they’ve got some good production and solid financial positions assuming that gold and silver prices remain lofty, but I’ve only just learned of both of them. What do you think, is either of these worth your hard-earned cash? Let us know with a comment below.
And don’t worry, next time I write it will be about stocks that are traded while most of us here in the US are awake ...
