VANCOUVER, May 3, 2016 /CNW/ - Red Eagle Mining Corporation (TSX-V: RD, OTCQX: RDEMF, SSE-V: RDCL) is pleased to announce financial results for the year ending December 31, 2015 and business highlights to date, including advancements at Red Eagle Mining's San Ramon Gold Mine in Antioquia, Colombia.
Highlights include:
Development and Construction of the San Ramon Gold Mine and Mill
In March 2015, Red Eagle Mining was formally granted the environmental licence in full, which was the final permit required for the construction and mining of the San Ramon Gold Mine and Mill, located in the Department of Antioquia, Colombia.
In August 2015, the Red Eagle Mining commenced construction at its San Ramon Gold Mine and Mill. The construction of the San Ramon underground mine, processing facility and infrastructure is currently progressing on schedule, with staff, contractors and equipment on site. Production is expected to commence during the second half of 2016.
As at March 31, 2016, the project is approximately 60% complete (based on physical completion) and approximately 55% complete (based on expenditures incurred), with all engineering design completed, approximately 90% of equipment delivered to the project site, and is currently proceeding on budget and schedule.
Significant project highlights include:
EPCM
Detailed engineering, drawings, and all 3D models for all structures are complete. The quantities and scope for unit rate construction contracts have been defined and awarded. The quantities, scope and prices achieved to date are all well within budget. The EPCM contract has now shifted in focus to "CM" – construction management.
Earthworks
Bulk earthworks were largely completed by the end of 2015, allowing critical concrete foundations to be poured prior to the close of the year. All cut slopes have been hydro-seeded with natural grasses to mitigate environmental impact. As at March 31, 2016, all earthworks and grass hydro-seeding was complete, apart from the dry tailings and mine waste rock management facility; the construction of which is still proceeding.
Concrete
All critical concrete foundations were completed before the end of 2015. As at March 31, 2016, all major concrete foundations have been completed, and concrete works are approximately 90% complete.
Procurement and Logistics
By November 2015, the Red Eagle Mining had placed all process and infrastructure equipment orders necessary to complete construction of the San Ramon Gold Mine and Mill. Deliveries of equipment commenced in January 2016 and as at March 31, 2016, deliveries for the majority of all major equipment to site are complete.
Structural Steel and Field Erected Tanks
Structural steel fabrication is well advanced and field erected tanks are fabricated and delivered to site and erection is in progress. As at March 31, 2016, welding and erection of major tanks is approximately 95% complete.
Mechanical Piping, Platework, and Electrical Instrumentation
Mechanical platework fabrication is in progress. Major bins and chutes have been delivered to site. Mechanical installation is in progress with the main focus on the SAG mill and Filter presses installation. Electrical bulk procurement is progressing well. The vast majority of all instruments have been fabricated and are being shipped to site. As at March 31, 2016, the SAG mill is approximately 85% complete, and the filter presses are approximately 60% complete, with all components on site.
Underground Mine Development
The underground decline has been collared and tunneling activities are ongoing. Initial ground conditions are as predicted – weak weathered granodiorite (saprolite), requiring conventional steel support and shotcrete. As at March 31, 2016, the decline development was in line with preparation of the processing facility and infrastructure schedules to achieve production during the second half of 2016. Additionally, detailed ore production stope delineation drilling had commenced, in preparation for this schedule.
Community Relations and Corporate Social Responsibility ("CSR")
Red Eagle Mining continues to maintain positive relationships with and be involved with the local communities, keeping them informed of the advances during the construction of the mine, as well as its environmental and CSR related activities. To date, Red Eagle Mining has consistently received positive reception and support from local communities and stakeholders on the project.
Environmental Progress
Red Eagle Mining has strictly adhered to the terms of its Environmental License, and the associated Environmental Management Plan has been followed diligently – inspections and reports are all in good order.
Red Eagle Mining expects to achieve the upcoming major development and construction milestones:
Project Financing
Based upon Red Eagle Mining's projections and estimated construction progress made as at March 31, 2016, the construction of the 100% owned San Ramon Gold Mine and Mill is forecast to be funded through to full production. As at March 31, 2016, Red Eagle Mining had approximately US $22 million in cash, and US $15 million available under the credit facility with approximately US $33 million of project cost left to incur. In addition, an $11 million private placement was closed on April 21, 2016.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, Red Eagle Mining reported a net loss of $6.7 million (2014: $8.9 million). The net loss was reduced compared to the 2014 period as Red Eagle Mining commenced capitalization of direct costs associated with the development of the San Ramon Gold Mine, which also results in the increased values of Total Assets and Shareholders' Equity. The latter two were also augmented by Red Eagle Mining's acquisition of a controlling interest in CB Gold. The decrease in loss per share in 2015 is primarily due to a lower net loss and the weighted average outstanding shares in 2015 being significantly greater than in 2014. The increase in Total Liabilities primarily relates to amounts outstanding on the construction credit facility and the recognition of a reclamation provision for the San Ramon Gold Mine and Vetas Gold Project.
