Bear Creek announces robust Corani prefeasibility study; over 250 million ounces of silver converted to reserves
9/14/2009 8:30 AM - Canada NewsWire

VANCOUVER, Sep. 14, 2009 (Canada NewsWire via COMTEX News Network) --

Bear Creek Mining Corporation (TSX Venture: BCM) ("Bear Creek" or the "Company") is very pleased to announce the results of a positive Prefeasibility Study ("PFS"),) as defined by NI-43-101 for its 100% owned Corani silver-lead-zinc deposit located in southern Peru. Highlights of this study include (all figures in US dollars):


   <<
   -   The net present value is $348 million at a 5% discount rate and the
       after tax internal rate of return for the project is 25%
   -   Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves containing 258 million ounces of
       silver, plus 2.9 billion pounds of lead and 1.4 billion pounds of
       zinc, respectively
   -   Average annual saleable silver production of 10M ounces per year for
       first 6 years, 6.4M opy LOM. On a silver equivalent ounce basis,
       17.1M opy for the first six years and 12M opy for the life of the
       project
   -   Project produces two highly-marketable concentrates
   -   Cash cost of $1.06 per ounce silver for the first 10 years, LOM cash
       costs of $2.81 per ounce (net of base metal credits)
   -   Metals price assumptions; $13/oz Ag, $0.70 Pb, and $0.65 Zn
   -   Capital costs of $339 million with Capital Payback in less than three

       years
   -   Life of Mine 27 years
   -   Mill capacity 15,000 tonne per day
   -   Stripping ratio of 1.56:1 (Waste:Ore)
   -   Feasibility Study to be initiated
   >>

Project summary - The project has an after-tax internal rate of return (IRR) of 25%, net present value of $348 million at a 5% discount rate and a EBITDA of $1.8 billion based upon metals prices of $13 per ounce silver, and $0.70 and $0.65 per pound of lead and zinc, respectively.

Recovered silver production in the first six years averages 10 million ounces/year and the project will produce an average of 6.4 million payable ounces of silver, 73 million pounds of lead and 32 million pounds of zinc annually over a 27 year mine-life. Life of mine cash cost per ounce of silver is $2.81, net of base metals credits and $1.06 per ounce silver for the first 10 years. Pre-production capital investment in the project is estimated to be $339M and sustaining capital expenditures are estimated at an average $13.1 million per year over the 27-year life of the mine. Based upon the aforementioned metals prices, the project achieves payback of capital in 2.9 years. The Prefeasibility Study has been prepared using cost bids and estimates and production forecasts provided by qualified engineering consulting groups and the economic analysis was done in conjunction with Bear Creek's financial advisor.

Andrew Swarthout, President and CEO, states, "We are very pleased that the prefeasibility study establishes Corani as a large, robust silver and base metals deposit now advancing to full feasibility. Using current spot metals prices ($16.85/oz silver, $0.86/lb zinc, $0.97/lb lead), Corani has an NPV of approximately $757M at a 5% discount rate and a 41% IRR after tax showing that the project is highly leveraged to rising metals prices. The study describes the project as imminently buildable using conventional mining and processing technology. We are particularly pleased that the Prefeasibility Study meets our expectations for maximizing the value of the project: namely, creating a higher grade mine, dramatically lowering capital costs, and balancing metal recoveries into two highly marketable and separate lead and zinc concentrates. In addition to the leverage to conservative metals prices used in the study, our engineering consultants have identified several additional opportunities such as increased throughput and contract mining alternatives to further enhance value during the Feasibility Study."

<< PREFEASIBILITY STUDY >>

The reserve and resource estimates were updated for the PFS by Independent Mining Consultants (IMC), Tucson, AZ. Samuel Engineering, Denver, Colorado and Vector Engineering, Lima, Peru co-lead the study with support from Resource Development Inc. (RDI) (Metallurgy), and SGS Vancouver (Metallurgical Testing). All are independent preeminent engineering and metallurgical testing firms with recent mine development and operating experience in Peru.

The PFS, which is dated effective Monday September 14th, 2009, is based upon mining assumptions derived from mine planning sequences completed by IMC and metallurgical test work performed by SGS Laboratories and G&T Metallurgical. The mining sequence primarily derives ore from the higher-grade starter pits in the early years and moves to lower-grade areas in the later years of production. Operations are to be 27 years based on current reserves. Only measured and indicated resources were used when defining the operations plan when converting resource to reserves. Note that in the mine sequence, only 258 million ounces contained within 139.6M tonnes have been used as reserve in this plan. An additional 110.4M additional tonnes of measured and indicated resource (containing 71.8 million ounces of silver) and 34.2 million tonnes of inferred resource (containing 35.6 million ounces of silver) remain that could be included in later plans of operations should metals prices and/or operating parameters (recoveries) improve.

The PFS is based upon an updated resource estimation and mine sequencing performed in August 2009 by IMC based upon 93,577 meters of drilling and sampling in 544 diamond drill holes and trenches completed through August 2009. The Company employs a Net Smelter Return (NSR) method to determine the break between ore and waste, with the cutoff NSR being $9.10 per tonne. Measured and Indicated Resources contained within the pre-feasibility study design pit were used to determine final pit limits and thus converted respectively into Proven and Probable Reserves. Importantly, 71% of the previously reported ounces of silver in resources were converted to reserves in this study. The additional resource material is mostly measured and indicated resource that occurs outside of the pre-feasibility study pit but which meets the CIM definition of mineral resource.

Metallurgical testing - The Company has completed metallurgical optimization tests on two master composites in order to define recoveries for the purposes of the PFS reserve calculation. The composites were designed using a blend of the Mixed Sulfide and the Transitional ores which constitute 82% and 18% of the ore deposit, respectively. The composites therefore approximate the expected life of mine concentrator feed material (see also "Mining and Milling"). The master composite test work establishes that when the two materials are blended in accordance with the mine sequence that the recoveries and resulting concentrate grades are as outlined in the table below. Additionally the Company has completed a re-logging of all drill core to identify the different metallurgical material types. The re-logging data was then utilized to define each block in the resource model with a metallurgical rock type and assigning every block a specific recovery and concentrate grade for the purposes of determining its NSR value and reserve classification. The specific grade and recovery parameters used for the flotation ores, the life-of-mine overall recoveries and concentrate grades are tabulated below.

                            MINING AND MILLING
   >>

Mining will be performed using conventional open pit methods using 90t trucks and 12m(3) wheel loaders mining on 8 meter high benches. The mine requires minimal pre-production waste stripping of 10.8 million tonnes.

Processing of the ore will be by conventional flotation recovery methods. The ore will be crushed close to the mine and the material conveyed to the processing plant where it will be ground to 80% passing 106 microns in a SAG/Ball mill circuit. The material will then be floated with the rougher concentrates being reground to 80% passing 35 microns prior to cleaning to produce high-value separate lead-silver and zinc concentrates. Concentrates will be trucked to the Port of Maturani for ocean shipment to smelters.

<< CAPITAL COSTS >>

The project capital cost estimate has been prepared by three independent engineering companies. The mining costs were prepared by Independent Mining Consultants of Tucson, Arizona, the Process and part of the infrastructure capital cost has been prepared by Samuel Engineering of Denver, Colorado and the Tailings and remaining infrastructure costs have been prepared by Vector Peru. The initial startup capital is estimated to be $339 million and the total life of mine capital cost is estimated to be $693 million. The capital costs include detailed long-term plans for tailing dam expansions as well ongoing capital and mine closure.

<< OPERATING COSTS >>

Mining costs were prepared on a year by year basis with costs varying mostly due to changing haulage distances. The life-of-mine average mining costs will be $1.50 per tonne of the total material moved. The process costs are estimated to be $7.30 per tonne of process ore and the G&A is estimated to be $1.20 per process tonne or $6.3 million per year.

<< INFRASTRUCTURE >>

The project has favorable infrastructure. Access will be via a new 63 km road to be built over flat topography resulting in low construction costs. The new road will connect to the Interoceanic Highway; a two-lane, paved highway connecting to the port of Matarani. The mine is 30 km from a new high-voltage power line with abundant capacity to meet the project needs. The project has an excellent site for tailings storage resulting in a very low capital and operating cost as the plant will be located immediately adjacent to the tailings pond. The site is also located in the upper part of the Atlantic drainage and as such there are several surface and underground water source alternatives.

<< ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL >>

The project has been designed to meet international standards of environmental compliance. The tailing storage facility has been designed to the highest standards of containment and stability. The waste rock storage facilities are designed to capture and manage any flows that may originate from the waste rock. Finally an initial closure plan has been developed that will provide covers for both the tailing storage and waste rock facilities that will result in safe and environmentally compliant closure of the mine. The Company has maintained very good working relationships with the local communities.


   <<
                               OPPORTUNITIES

   The study has identified areas of opportunities that will be analyzed in
later engineering studies and test work:

   -   Increase throughput while maintaining much of the same low start-up
       cost infrastructure.
   -   Investigate the use of contract mining to reduce the start-up and
       sustaining capital
   -   As the sensitivity analysis shows, the project is very sensitive to
       metallurgical recoveries. The Company and its consultants believe
       continued metallurgical optimization test work may further improve
       the metal recoveries and concentrate grades.

   The PFS will be filed and available for viewing on SEDAR (www.sedar.com)
within 45 days following the date of this news release.

All of Bear Creek's exploration programs and pertinent disclosure of a technical or scientific nature are prepared by or prepared under the direct supervision of Marc Leduc, P. Eng., Senior Vice President of Engineering and Development and the President and CEO, Andrew Swarthout, P.Geo., who serve as the Qualified Persons under the definitions of NI 43-101. The block model estimate, mine design and schedules were prepared by Independent Mining Consultants of Tucson Arizona. John Marek P.E. acted as the independent qualified person as defined by Canada's National Instrument 43-101. Additionally the methods used in determining and reporting the mineral reserves and resources are consistent with the CIM Best Practices Guidelines. The method used in the resource calculation is equivalent to the method used in the resource calculation shown in our August 23, 2006 Press Release. For this resource estimate we have used metal prices based on a 3-year backward average and a 2-year forward price based on the metal markets in July 2009.

Assumptions used in the mineral reserve and PFS model by IMC are: Silver Price=$13.00/oz; Zinc Price=$0.65/lb; Lead Price=$0.70/lb; Mixed Sulfide Material Silver Recovery=62% to lead con and 16% to the zinc con, Zinc Recovery=75% to zinc con and Lead Recovery=76% to lead con; Transitional Material Silver Recovery= 56% to lead con and 5% to the zinc con, Zinc Recovery= 20% to zinc con and Lead Recovery= 52% to lead con. Average smelter charges against saleable metal: Silver= $0.68 per ounce; Zinc= $0.348 per pound; Lead= $0.286 per pound; Mining Costs per tonne= $1.25; Process cost per tonne= $7.00; G&A per processed tonne= $0.85; Pit Slopes= 42 degrees in mineralized tuff and 46 degrees in post-mineralized tuff. The resulting mineral reserve cutoff is $9.10/tonne ore NSR. The mineral reserves are contained within a practical mining plan that utilized the 'floating-cone" method as an initial guide for design.

The mineral resource portion of the project is contained in a larger pit than the PFS design pit, which was a floating cone using the following input assumptions: Silver Price=$13.85/oz; Zinc Price=$0.693/lb; Lead Price=$0.746lb; Mixed Sulfide Material Silver Recovery=68% to lead con and 17% to the zinc con, all other recoveries remained the same. The Mineral Resource cut-off was $7.85/tonne which represents the internal process cutoff. All metallurgical material types were included in the resource.

All diamond drilling has been performed using HQ diameter core with recoveries averaging greater than 95%. Core is logged and split on site under the supervision of Bear Creek geologists. Sampling is done on two-meter intervals and samples are transported by Company staff to Juliaca, Peru for direct shipping to ALS Chemex, Laboratories in Lima, Peru. ALS Chemex is an ISO 9001:2000-registered laboratory and is preparing for ISO 17025 certification. Silver, lead, and zinc assays utilize a multi-acid digestion with atomic absorption ("ore-grade assay method"). The QC/QA program includes the insertion every 20th sample of known standards prepared by SGS Laboratories, Lima. A section in Bear Creek's website is dedicated to sampling, assay and quality control procedures.

The PFS was prepared by a team of independent engineering consultants. The mining and block model portion was prepared by Independent Mining Consultants of Tucson Arizona, John Marek, PE acting as QP. The process plant design was prepared by Samuel Engineering, Kathy Altman, PE acting as QP. Metallurgy and Process design criteria developed by Resource Development Inc. Deepak Malhotra, Ph.D acting as QP. And geotechnical, environmental, infrastructure, waste stockpile and tailings designs were prepared by Vector Peru, Scott Elfen, PE acting as the QP. Each of these individuals has read and approves the respective scientific and technical disclosure contained in this news release. Silver Equivalency calculation represents the contained equivalent silver ounces sent to concentrate and is based on the resource metal prices assumptions of $13.00/oz Ag, 0.70/lb Pb and 0.65/lb Zn and recoveries to concentrate of 74.5% for silver and 71.7% for lead and 71.3% for zinc. The calculation does not take into account the net smelter payment terms for the different metals in the two separate concentrates. The resulting equivalency is 1 oz Ag = 19.3 lb Pb and 1 oz Ag = 20.9 lb Zn.

Bear Creek announces infill results at its Santa Ana silver deposit; mineralization remains open to north and at depth
6/17/2010 10:07 AM - Canada NewsWire

VANCOUVER, Jun 17, 2010 (Canada NewsWire via COMTEX News Network) --

Bear Creek Mining (TSX Venture: BCM) ("Bear Creek" or the "Company") is pleased to announce results for 43 additional diamond drill holes (4,567.8 meters) that will be incorporated into an updated resource/reserve estimation in the next month. Drilling at Santa Ana, a pure silver, heap leachable deposit capable of producing close to 5 million ounces per year (see news release dated 20 April 2009), now totals 64,761 meters in 393 drill holes including 45 holes engineering holes totaling of 4,303 meters. Santa Ana is located 200 kilometers south of the Company's world-class Corani silver-base metal deposit in southeastern Peru. Both projects are in the feasibility study stages. Highlights of this press release include:


   <<
   -   Feasibility Study on-track for September 2010.

   -   Infill holes are returning similar silver values to previous
       drilling; therefore, good conversion from inferred to M+I resources
       and mineable reserves is expected.

   -   Drill hole SA-227 intersects 34m @ 81.2 g/t Ag including 10m @
       140.4 g/t Ag.

   -   Drill hole SA-230 intersects 24m @ 64.6 g/t Ag, including 6m @

bear Creek announces updated Santa Ana leachable silver resource; M&I increased 39%
7/12/2010 7:00 AM - Canada NewsWire

VANCOUVER, Jul 12, 2010 (Canada NewsWire via COMTEX News Network) --

Bear Creek Mining Corporation (TSX Venture: BCM) ("Bear Creek" or the "Company") is very pleased to announce results from the fourth resource estimate at the Company's 100% owned Santa Ana leachable silver deposit. This resource estimation will be used to derive the mineable reserves and mine planning for the Santa Ana Feasibility Study expected to be completed in September 2010. Santa Ana is located in southeastern Peru, 200 kilometers south of the Company's Corani silver-base metal deposit which is also undergoing a final Feasibility Study. Highlights of this press release include:

RESOURCE ESTIMATION


   <<
   -   Current Silver resources are:

          -  Measured and Indicated 101.8M tonnes grading 41.5 g/t Ag
             containing 136M ounces silver

          -  Inferred 21.6M tonnes grading 40.6 g/t Ag containing
             28.2M ounces silver

          -  Deposit still open in 4 directions

   -   39% increase to 136M ounces silver in M&I from the previous estimate
       of 98M ounces

   -   Mineralization remains open to the north, south and west plus at
       depth
   >>



Andrew Swarthout, President and CEO of Bear Creek, states "We are very encouraged with the fourth resource estimation completed on the Santa Ana leachable silver deposit. Measured and Indicated resources again increased significantly demonstrating the strong continuity of the mineralization and allowing for the continued conversions of what was previously categorized as waste to mineralized material and Inferred resource to Measured and Indicated resources. The Feasibility Study will now focus on optimal mining cut-off grades for conversion to mineable Proven and Probable reserves. The resource estimation confirms the robust project described by the Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") with potentially a 50% longer mine life than previously envisioned."

Mr. Swarthout continues "Ongoing metallurgical testing continues to indicate that the project can employ low-cost open-pit mining and heap leaching with at least 70% silver recoveries. The engineering work indicates that the infrastructure is favorable for mine development and that capital costs will remain in-line with those presented in the PEA with further optimization opportunities being evaluated."

RESOURCE ESTIMATE

The updated resource estimation was completed in July 2010 by Independent Mining Consultants (IMC) of Tucson, Arizona, with John Marek, P.E. acting as the Independent Qualified Person under NI 43-101. The resource estimate is based upon 348 diamond drill holes totaling 60,458 meters completed through June. The estimation is presented below using two cutoff grades. The global resource assumes a $16 per ounce silver price applied to mineralized material contained within a pit determined by 70% silver recoveries under heap leaching and operating costs established in the Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") prepared by IMC in April 2009 (see news release dated 20 April 2009). Lead and zinc are not recovered in heap leaching and not considered in the resource estimation. Lead and zinc grades are reported as they are elevated and could become economically significant with additional exploration.

The stripping ratio is approximately 1.65:1. Importantly, the resource model is constrained such that only blocks with nearby drill holes are considered in the resource; therefore, additional drilling is expected to continue to convert waste blocks into resource, further reducing the stripping ratio. The estimation utilized indicator kriging to establish the limits of mineralization. Block grades were then calculated using a linear kriging method incorporating 5-meter drill hole assay composites.

The deposit can be subdivided into the lower-grade periphery and a higher-grade central part of the deposit for which the resources are tabulated below applying a 19 g/t silver cut-off grade for the estimation. This higher grade zone of the deposit contains 101.8 million ounces of silver in a pit with a waste to mineralized material ratio of 1.75:1 (M+I Resources/Waste + Inferred Resources).

Drilling has left the deposit open to the NNW and potential for expansion remains at depth, high-grade and leach grade expansions. Mineralization is typically contained within northerly and northeasterly trending, sub-vertical structural corridors within which high-grade silver mineralization is surrounded by lower-grade halos. Silver mineralization is also found along bedding planes in the thick andesite flow and in sub-vertical, dilational zones within the bedding.

Santa Ana Feasibility Study Progress

Work is continuing on the preparation of the Santa Ana Feasibility Study and Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA). The Company expects to release the results of the Feasibility Study in September 2010 and to file the ESIA before the end of the year.

Bear Creek Mining Corp.: Spekulativ kaufen mit Kursziel 7,00 CAD
 
Paradigm  Capital erhöht das Kursziel für den kanadischen Metallexplorer Bear  Creek Mining Corporation von 6,25 CAD auf 7,00 CAD, zuversichtlich, dass  Bear Creek schon bald Gold und Silber in seinen peruanischen Projekten  Santa Ana und Corani produzieren wird. Diese Projekte haben zwar die  gleichen Metalle, unterscheiden sich aber stark.

Corani, teuer in der Entwicklung aber günstig im Betrieb, könnte  jährlich 6 - 9 Mio. Silberunzen zu etwa 2 USD/oz produzieren. Santa  Ana, günstig in der Entwicklung aber teuer im Betrieb, nutzt das  günstiger zu bauende Haufenlaugungsverfahren, das sich aber nur für  Silber eignet. Für Santa Ana wird noch diesen Monat eine  Machbarkeitsstudie erwartet. Eine Abgrenzungsstudie vom April 2009  prognostizierte eine Jahressilberproduktion in Santa Ana von 4,6 Mio.  Unzen über 12 Jahre im Haufenlaugungsverfahren. Seitdem haben neue  Bohrungen höhere Schätzungen ergeben.

Die Produktion soll im ersten Quartal 2012 beginnen. Das Corani  Projekt hingegen braucht wohl noch mehr Zeit, da weitere Tests  durchgeführt werden müssen und auch der Genehmigungsprozess länger  dauern kann. Paradigm erwartet eine Produktion erst im Jahr 2014.

BEAR CREEK PROVIDES PROJECT UPDATES; KEY SURFACE RIGHTS TO BE ACQUIRED AT CORANI AND SANTA ANA SILVER DEPOSITS, PERU

 

VANCOUVER, Sept. 16  /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Bear Creek Mining Corporation (TSX Venture: BCM) ("Bear Creek" or the "Company") is very pleased to provide updates on its Corani and Santa Ana  feasibility studies. At Corani, 1,133 hectares of surface land  acquisition is scheduled for closure later this year. This land purchase  will comprise over 50% of the project infrastructure needs and  importantly, the acquired surface will cover approximately 30% of the  ore deposit and is pivotal to the acquisition of remaining surface  rights before year-end.

Final bids from engineering firms for the Corani Feasibility Study  are currently being reviewed for awarding of the contract in early  October. Significant opportunities being taken into the Corani  Feasibility Study include:

-   Throughput optimization will immediately be evaluated for potential       plant capacity to increase by 50% from the prefeasibility study to       22,500 tonnes per day.    -   Subject to the feasibility study results on increased plant capacity,       silver and base metals output would increase by 50% per year to       approximately 15 million ounces per year with only an approximately       20% increase in capital required for larger mills, flotation       capacity, and increased initial tailings dam requirements.    -   Assuming that the larger plant size analysis is positive, increasing       throughput will take the mine life from 27 years to less than       20 years resulting in further improvement to IRR and NPV.

Feasibility-level metallurgical testing continues towards further  process optimization focusing on the first five years of commercial  production. Test results are in line with the Prefeasibility Study  completed in September 2009 (See news release dated 14 September 2009).  The Corani Feasibility Study is expected to be completed in the 3rd  Quarter 2011.

Santa Ana Project - Land acquisition at Santa Ana is advancing with  completion also expected by year-end 2010. Water wells have been  drilled and are currently being tested for two alternative process water  sources for the Feasibility Study. The Feasibility Study is in the  final stages with completion expected in early October, leading to the  submission of the environmental impact study before year-end 2010  followed by formal construction permit applications. Given that approval  of final permits generally takes nine months from submission, the  Company envisions construction commencing by Q4 2011. First silver  production is targeted by the second quarter 2012 with ramp-up to an  annual production rate of 5 million ounces of silver per year as  outlined in the Santa Ana Preliminary Economic Assessment to occur  within two quarters after commencement of leaching. (See news release  dated 20 April 2009).

Andrew Swarthout, President and CEO of Bear Creek states "The  acquisition of these key surface rights and steadily advancing  feasibility studies on two separate silver deposits solidly places Bear  Creek on track to becoming a 15 million to 20 million ounce per year  producer during 2014 with first production coming from Santa Ana in 2012  at a rate of 5 million ounces per year. The Santa Ana feasibility  study, due for announcement the first week of October will describe a  robust project in-line with the Preliminary Economic Assessment and  recent guidance. In addition, the Study will present detailed  alternative mine plans taking advantage of recent increases in silver  prices."

Vancouver junior Bear Creek may be a top primary silver miner by 2014

#000099; font-style: italic">With two advanced silver deposits, including a potential world-class mine, and 320 million reserve ounces, Bear Creek may be on the fast track as a future major silver miner.

Author: Dorothy Kosich
Posted:  Friday , 08 Oct 2010

RENO, NV - 

With more than 63 million ounces of proven and probable reserves and an additional 72.8 million ounces of measured and indicated resources in the Santa Ana silver deposit alone, junior explorer Bear Creek Mining could find itself one of the world's top primary silver miners by 2014.

During a conference call Thursday, Bear Creek officials said that between the Santa Ana and Corani deposits, the company could mine 15 million to 20 million ounces of Peruvian silver annually by 2014.

A 43-101 feasibility study for the Santa Ana silver deposit in southern Peru estimates a $68.8 million capex for an open-pit mining project with an average annual production of 3.6 million ounces of silver over an 11-year mine life.

"This project we just can't move fast enough," Bear Creek President Andrew T. Swarthout told analysts during a conference call Thursday.

Swarthout said first production for Santa Ana is slated for mid-2012.

Meanwhile, Bear Creek officials told analysts Corani "is a much larger project" and is being touted by the company as a "world class silver deposit," which will require more capital than Santa Ana.  The two deposits combined contain over 400 million ounces of silver in reserves and resources.

A September 2009 pre-feasibility study envisions a US$339 million project with an average annual production of 6.4 million ounces of production over a 27-year mine life, plus byproduct lead and zinc production.

The Corani feasibility study is scheduled to be completed in 2011. Mine production is expected to commence in 2014.

Both Corani and Santa Ana are located in the Department of Puno in Peru.

"At today’s silver price, Santa Ana will throw out about $100 million per year in free cash flow"


Now that Bear Creek is fully funded, financier seeks project for Troon Ventures

By Peter Kennedy

She doesn’t have a full time job, and claims to inhabit a very narrow area of expertise.

But that didn’t prevent Catherine McLeod-Seltzer from recently helping to raise $130 million for Bear Creek Mining Corp. (TSX: V.BCM, Stock Forum), a junior mining company which is focused on developing silver projects in Peru, a country she knows well from previous work in Latin America.

The Vancouver-based Bear Creek Chairman and mine financier is perhaps best known for co-founding Arequipa Resources Ltd., a company that was sold to Barrick Gold Corp. (TSX: T.ABX, Stock Forum) for $1.1 billion back in 1996.

When Stockhouse spoke to McLeod-Seltzer by phone this week, she was getting her personal life back in order after spending three of the past four weeks marketing Bear Creek’s latest financing in major cities in Canada, the U.S. and Europe.

“When you raise $130 million in cash, it is important to keep shareholders appraised about what is going on,’’ she said.

Trading at $8.45 on Friday in a 52-week range of $3.51 and $9.42, Bear Creek has a market cap of $763.8 million, based on 90.4 million shares outstanding.

With about $150 million in the treasury, the company is positioned to start construction of its Santa Ana silver project in Peru, a $70 million heap leach silver mine which is expected to produce about 5 million ounces annually, starting in 2012.  Cash costs at the site are forecast to be about US$8.50 per ounce.

Bear Creek is also looking at the feasibility of building a second Peruvian mine, the Corani, which is expected to cost about $400 million to develop and will likely produce about 15 million ounces of silver annually. Production there is expected to start in 2014.

“At today’s silver price, Santa Ana will throw out about $100 million per year in free cash flow,’’ said McLeod-Seltzer.

It is cash flow that could enable Bear Creek to go it alone in developing Corani and quickly make the transition from being a pure exploration play to become a fully fledged mining company.

If everything goes according to plan, McLeod-Seltzer said the company will have the production stream to rival Pan American Silver Corp. (TSX: T.PAA, Stock Forum) and (NASDAQ: PAAS, Stock Forum), a company with silver mines in Peru, Mexico and Bolivia.

“There is nobody else in this space that has that kind of growth profile, with technically low risk projects, located in a politically secure, mining friendly jurisdiction.’’

But as Bear Creek moves to establish itself as a silver producer in Peru, McLeod-Seltzer is already looking ahead to her next mining play.

She is part of well known group of mining industry officials who are on the board of Troon Ventures Ltd. (TSX: V.TVN, Stock Forum), a shell company with about $10 million in cash.

McLeod-Seltzer and her fellow board members, including former Lundin Mining Corp. (TSX: T.LUN, Stock Forum) chief executive officer Colin Benner, are focused on finding a viable project to develop.

“We are pretty picky and have all the time in the world,’’ she said. “You can bet that with this group, when we acquire a project, it will be a good one.’’

A member of a prominent Vancouver mining family, McLeod-Seltzer is clearly well connected. Aside from being Chairman of Bear Creek, she is also Chairman and director of Pacific Rim Mining Corp. (TSX: T.PMU, Stock Forum), a lead director at Stornoway Diamond Corp. (TSX: T.SWY, Stock Forum) and a director of Kinross Gold Corp. (TSX: T.K, Stock Forum).

She is also a large shareholder of Lundin Group company Lucara Diamond Corp. (TSX: V.LUC, Stock Forum).

But she credits her success to teamwork and an ability to locate and work with proven mine finders such as Arequipa co-founder David Lowell and Bear Creek President Andrew Swarthout.

“I don’t run the day to day,’’ she said. “But I’m there as a resource, on the marketing, the strategy and the money raising side of things,’’ she said.

Oktober eine Durchführbarkeitsstudie abgeschlossen werden.  Das Projekt umfasst Silberreserven in Höhe von 63,2 Mio. oz.  Vorläufig ist ab Ende 2012 eine jährliche Silberproduktion von  4,6 Mio. oz bei Nettoproduktionskosten von 9,02 $/oz über einen Zeitraum  von 11 Jahren vorgesehen. Die Investitionskosten werden auf 68,8 Mio.  A$ geschätzt.  
Fortschritte werden auch für das peruanische Corani Projekt  gemeldet, für das bereits eine Vor-Durchführbarkeitsstudie abgeschlossen  werden konnte. Das Projekt umfasst 258 Mio. oz Silber, 1,3 Mio. t Blei  und 600.000 t Zink.  
Vorläufig wird ab 2014 eine jährliche Silberproduktion von 10  Mio. oz über einen Zeitraum von 6 Jahren geplant. Nach den ersten 6  Jahren soll die Produktion auf einer niedrigeren Basis noch 27 Jahre  weitergeführt werden. Die Nettoproduktionskosten werden auf 1,06 $/oz  und die Investitionskosten auf 339 Mio. A$ geschätzt.  
Am 30.09.10 stand einem Cashbestand von 31,1 Mio. A$ eine  gesamte Kreditbelastung von 56,5 Mio. A$ gegenüber. Mit einer  Kapitalerhöhung konnten am 05.11.10 weitere 129,9 Mio. A$ aufgenommen  werden.
Bear Creek präsentiert sich als größerer Silberexplorationswert  mit der Aussicht auf eine langjährige profitable Silber- und  Basismetallproduktion. Sollte Bear Creek eine jährliche Produktion von  15 Mio. oz bei einer Gewinnspanne von 10 $/oz umsetzen können, würde das  KGV auf 5,5 zurückfallen.
Positiv sind die umfangreichen Silberreserven  und der hohe Cashbestand. ...

BEAR CREEK ANNOUNCES POSITIVE RESULTS FROM PHASE I DRILLING, TASSA SILVER-GOLD PROJECT, PERU

VANCOUVER, Dec. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Bear Creek Mining (TSX Venture: BCM / BVL: BCM) ("Bear Creek" or the "Company") is pleased to announce results for the fifteen (15) diamond drill holes (3677.4 meters) from its Phase I drill program. The positive initial results in conjunction with ongoing mapping and sampling on the property will be evaluated to determine the scope of Phase II drilling expected to start after the rainy season in Q2 2011. Tassa is located approximately 160 kilometers northwest and 230 kilometers south of the Company's Santa Ana and Corani silver deposits respectively. Santa Ana is on the permitting track following completion of a positive feasibility study and a feasibility study at Corani is expected in late 2011. Highlights of this news release are:

-- Drill hole T-4 returns 60 meters averaging 224.2 g/t Ag from 24 to 84 meters depth -- Drill hole T-2 returns 40 meters averaging 110.70 g/t Ag from 2 to 42 meters depth -- Drill hole T-6 returns 10 meters averaging 202 g/t Ag from 168 to 178 meters depth -- Drill hole T-11 returns 12 meters averaging 146.5 g/t Ag from 16 to 28 meters depth -- The wide space initial drilling only partially tests the large, mineralized diatreme breccia complex which measures 1.5 km by 800 meters -- Every drill hole to date has encountered elevated silver with occasional gold values up to 1.24 g/t over two-meters and various intervals with >0.1 g/t Au -- Numerous untested geochemical targets remain within the diatreme complex and sedimentary host rocks adjacent to the complex which are now being targeted by geologic mapping


Andrew Swarthout, President and CEO of Bear Creek, states "We are encouraged with the success rate including four drill holes containing significant silver mineralization in our first round of widely spaced drilling in this very large target area. These positive early stage results along with multi-phase nature of the volcanic diatreme complex at Tassa as well as the presence of similar host sediments to the nearby Chucapaca gold discovery of Goldfields and Buenaventura provide significant potential to discover additional higher grade silver and gold zones within the largely untested property position and highly metal-endowed geologic environment."

The Company's 100% controlled Tassa silver-gold prospect is located approximately 16 kms north-west from Chucapaca, currently under exploration by the Goldfields - Buenaventura joint venture where ,in a very similar geologic and geochemical setting, reported resources are 83.7 MT averaging 1.9 g/t Au and 8.2 g/t Ag.. Reportedly, the higher-grade gold mineralization at Chucapaca was "blind" and drilling initially returned silver-rich intercepts before the gold deposits were discovered.

The target at Tassa is a 1.5 km by 800 meters silver/gold anomaly where 852 rock chip samples (including trenches) to date average 30.71 g/t silver. An Induced Polarization survey defined several high chargeability anomalies, which seems to be related to increased fine black sulfides which contain elevated levels of silver and gold. To date, Phase I drilling has intersected mineralization contained within multiple phases of phreatic, hydrothermal, tectonic and phreatomagmatic breccias, strongly fractured rhyolitic volcanics, and brecciated sediments.

Phase II drilling, expected to commence in Q2, 2011, will consider testing deeper in the system where favorable sedimentary formations hosting the Chucapaca mineralization are believed to exist, the borders of the diatremes in contact with sediments, and new targets generated by mapping and soil and rock geochemical sampling over the northernmost three kms of the concessions where the mineralization may be open beneath outcropping Yura quartzite.

Mineragraphic and Mineral Liberation Analysis (MLA) work establishes the main silver mineral as argentite associated with multiple mineralizing events. Seven recent bottle roll tests performed at ALS Chemex labs for cyanide extraction show Ag- Au recoveries above 70% where copper content is low; however, when copper exceeds 0.2% Cu (approximately 10% of the samples tested), recoveries tend to be lower. Earlier bottle roll tests on six samples resulted in recoveries of up to 85% silver and 95% gold (see News Release dated 7 January 2010). The high cyanide recoveries of silver and gold allow consideration of low-cost open pit mining and heap or vat leach recovery; however, the focus of the current program is to expand the higher-grade intercepts, discover higher gold to silver ratio mineralization, and develop additional targets within the district.

Other News:

In other exploration news, four drill holes totaling 694 meters were completed at the Campanario project. Although numerous intervals of anomalous gold values were encountered, the results indicate that a bulk tonnage deposit is very unlikely. The Company's option agreement is being terminated and no further work is planned.

Consistent with the Company's aggressive generative exploration philosophy, several additional prospects in the portfolio are being evaluated for future drilling or acquisition.

Insgesamt sieht die Situation sehr vielversprechend aus, neues ATH, wie Du erwähnt hast, ein perfektes Chartbild seit zwei Jahren und sehr hohe Umsätze zuletzt.

Ich dachte schon, bei ARIVA gibt es niemand mehr, der diese Aktie im Depot hat.

Silber geht durch die Decke, die Minenwerte haben da noch großen Nachholbedarf.

Danke für die Wiederbelebung des Threads.

"Stagnation": Warum?

 
02.04.11 11:32

 

Ich hatte vor 6 Monaten einige Silber-Nebenwerte (Orko, Bear-Creek  und Silver Wheaton) mit der Überlegung gekauft, dass sie gemeinsam mit  dem Silberwert ansteigen würden -

oder den Silberwert bei weiterem Anstieg sogar überdurchschnittlich "hebeln" dürften.

Nun  hüpft der Silberpreis munter von Allzeithoch zu Allzeithoch, hat die  Schwächephase Mitte Januar sogar um 50% !!! überwunden, - nur die  Silberwerte hinken je nach Fall 20 - 40% hinterher.

Wo ist der Grund?!

* Nur die Dollarschwäche allein kanns ja nicht sein.

*  Oder war der gewaltige Anstieg bis Dezember schon eine übertriebene  Reaktion der Anleger, die bereits einen Silberpreis von 40 US-$  antizipierten und ist die jetzige Stagnation eher als vernünftige  Konsolidierung zu sehen?

Ich weiß nur eins: Wenn ich jetzt  aussteige, werden die Werte nächste Woche ihre Schwäche überwunden haben  und den Silberpreis überproportional outperformen

Firmen bejubeln Perus Reformpräsidenten

Von Stefan Biskamp

Soziale Marktwirtschaft statt Sozialismus: Der neue peruanische Präsident Ollanta Humala Tasso hat in den ersten Wochen seiner Amtszeit Wirtschaft, Finanzmärkte und selbst Standard & Poors überzeugt. Für deutsche Unternehmen bahnt sich in Peru das zweite Rekordjahr in Folge an.

Buenos Aires - Die "Weisse Stadt" Arequipa im Süden Perus ist ausgebucht, selbst die Sammellager der Jugendherbergen sind in der kommenden Woche belegt. Und das nicht von Rucksacktouristen, sondern von Herren in dunklen Anzügen: Die Bergbaumesse Extemin erwartet rund 40.000 Besucher, das wäre ein Zuwachs von 20 Prozent. Die größte Messe ihrer Art in Lateinamerika platzt aus allen Nähten; kurzfristig musste ein neuer Veranstaltungsort in Arequipa her. Die Stimmung ist gelöst, und wenn Messechef Hans Flury über das Verhältnis der Branche zur neuen Regierung spricht, pendelt es in seiner Wahrnehmung zwischen "korrekt", "angemessen" und "grossartig".

Moment - war da nicht was? Noch vor drei Monaten befürchteten Manager und konservative Intellektuelle, Ollanta Humala Tasso werde als Präsident Minenkonzerne verstaatlichen, die Verfassung ändern und die Presse an die Leine nehmen. Aus Angst vor einem linksgerichteten Staatschef stiegen die Zinsen auf Staatsanleihen, ausländische Unternehmen warnten Mitarbeiter, sie würden bei einem Sieg Humalas Fabriken dicht machen. Anfang Juni gewann er tatsächlich die Stichwahl gegen Keiko Fujimori, die Tochter des wegen Menschenrechtsvergehen verurteilten Ex-Präsidenten Alberto Fujimori - da stürzten Bergbauaktien um mehr als 10 Prozent ab, und der Börsenhandel in Lima wurde zeitweise ausgesetzt.

Seit dem 28. Juli ist Humala im Amt - und "die virtuelle Panik hat sich gelegt", sagt Jörg Zehnle, Chef der deutsch-peruanischen Handelskammer in Lima, "jetzt zählen wieder Zahlen und Fakten." Humala hat Unternehmer in sein Kabinett geholt, Staatsunternehmen sollen sich teils über die Börse finanzieren. Die Bergbauindustrie hat höhere Abgaben ohne Murren geschluckt. Kein einziges Freihandelsabkommen sei in Gefahr, "wir stehen zu unserer Unterschrift", versprach der Staatschef kürzlich ausländischen Wirtschaftsvertretern.

Denn deren Unterstützung braucht er, wenn er die schreienden sozialen Missstände des Landes durch den Aufbau eigener Wertschöpfung nach dem Motto "Produktion statt Almosen" auflösen will. "Humalas Schwerpunkt auf Sozialpolitik ist ja nur zu begrüßen", sagt Zehnle. Deutschland exportiere nun nicht nur Maschinen nach Peru, sondern auch "unser Modell der sozialen Marktwirtschaft".

Wirtschaft brummt trotz harter Währung

So punktet Humala selbst bei Rating-Agenturen. Fitch bemerkte unlängst, Peru sei in seiner Bewertungsklasse Spitzenreiter. Standard&Poors hob die Kreditwürdigkeit des Landes von "BBB-" auf "BBB" an; eine Abkehr vom marktwirtschaftlichen Kurs sei nicht zu befürchten. Die USA und Europa ächzen unter ihrer Schuldenlast, in Peru liegt die Verschuldung dagegen nur bei gut einem Fünftel des Bruttoinlandsprodukts, und die Inflation derzeit bei kaum spürbaren 0,27 Prozent.




Und die peruanische Wirtschaft brummt trotz harter Währung. Peru ist der größte Silberproduzent, der zweitgrößte Kupferlieferant und in Lateinamerika führend bei Gold, Zink und Blei. Diese Branche steht für 60 Prozent der Exporte Perus und ist die Basis des Wirtschaftswachstums von knapp 9 Prozent im vergangenen Jahr, dem in diesem Jahr voraussichtlich gut 6 Prozent folgen. Gigantische Investitionen stehen an: 51 Millarden Dollar sind für Infrastrukturprojekte, von einer Gaspipeline über Wasserkraftwerke bis zum Nahverkehr verplant. Minenkonzerne haben für die fünfjährige Amtszeit Humalas 30 Milliarden Dollar an Investitionen angekündigt.

Chancen, die sich deutsche Unternehmen nicht entgehen lassen. 35 deutsche Bergbaufirmen reisen zur Extemin an - zusätzlich zu den 20 schon in Peru vertretenen. Stahlunternehmen und Logistiker, Maschinen- und Anlagenbaür von ThyssenKrupp bis Siemens, von Herrenknecht bis Hamburg Süd bauen ihr Peru-Geschäft aus. Hochtief ist am Bau eines Wasserkraftwerks beteiligt. Drei Tage nach Humalas Amtsantritt eröffnete der Medizintechniker Dräger eine Niederlassung in Lima. Bosch und der Maschinenbauer Samson haben gerade neue Vertriebszentren aufgemacht. Faber-Castell plant für seine Buntstiftkollektionen eine weitere Nobelboutique und erweitert seine Produktion vor Ort. In Limas Touristenviertel Miraflores ist für Mitte kommenden Jahres ein ganzer Strassenzug mit neuen Flaggship-Stores von Luxusmarken wie Hugo Boss projektiert.

"2010 war uns ein Rekordjahr, und 2011 wird wieder eines", sagt Zehnle. Im ersten Halbjahr seien die Ausfuhren nach Deutschland - vor allem Rohstoffe - um 35 Prozent auf 838 Millionen Dollar gestiegen, die Einfuhren aus Deutschland um gut 26 Prozent auf mehr als eine halbe Milliarde Dollar.
