25/1/2010 09:50 | US$6.5 million boost for local Gold Mines Expansion ... Capital boost for mines RELATED STORIES CENTRAL Africa Gold (CAG), the London-listed gold mining and exploration company says it has raised more than US$6 million to recapitalise its Zimbabwe operations which include Dalny and Venice mines near Kadoma as well as Golden Quarry located just outside Gweru. CAG which is quoted on the small-cap Alternative Investment Market (AIM) says the majority of the funds were raised from the disposal of its interests in the West African country of Mali. The company, which was formed in 2003 after acquisition of the local assets of Falgold and Olympus Mining it is shifting focus to Zimbabwe in a clear boost to the country's fledgling economy. Mining has since resumed at the group's local assets after being scaled-down to care and maintenance at the height of the economic challenges that buffeted the local economy and confidence has also been boosted by the monetary policy measures announced by the central bank in February. Meanwhile, disposal of CAG's Mali operations raised about US$5 million while another US$1.2 million was secured from a consortium of financial institutions that include Investec Asset Management, Emerging Capital Partners and HBD Zim Investments. Acting Chairman, Roy Pitchford said management has worked hard to ensure that adequate funding is available for the Zimbabwean operations adding the capital injection represents a significant step forward in securing this objective. "The funds raised by the sale of CAG's Malian assets, together with the new funds injected into the business by Investec Asset Management, Emerging Capital Partners and HBD Zim Investments, and the deferral of our obligations under the existing convertible loan agreements gives the Company the opportunity to develop its remaining assets and generate shareholder value. Meanwhile CAG faces expulsion from Alternative Investment Market after failing to publish is 2008 financials. However Picthford, a former Chief Executive of Zimplats said the company expects to publish its annual report and accounts for 2008 as well as interim results for the first half of this year before the cut-off date for mandatory de-listing under the AIM rules. Pitchford took over as Acting Chairman following the resignation of Roy Lander, another executive with vast experience of the Zimbabwe market having being Chairman and Chief Executive of Anglo American Corporation's local operations. | buystock | |

25/1/2010 05:21 | Central African Gold to "take advantage of new monetary policies" in Zimbabwe Roy Pitchford, Chief Executive Officer of mining company Central African Gold, outlined the company's strategy for its Zimbabwean operations. Pitchford said that the company will "restart mining operations to take advantage of new monetary policies being introduced to stimulate the Zimbabwe economy." It will "restructure and optimise mining operations and complete scoping/prefeasibili In a slide titled 'Why Zimbabwe', Pitchford explained that the Falgold Gold Zimbabwe team, in which the company has an 84.7% stake, has experience of mining and exploration in Zimbabwe. This has ensured the company make the most of its gold projects in the country. He also pointed to the good infrastructure, skills and easy access that the country has, as well as it being in close proximity to South Africa. These reasons, along with the fact that modern exploration methods have yet to be applied to many deposits in Zimbabwe, has given the company confidence to continue work on its gold projects there. The company will optimise capital expenditure in line with the economic/political developments going on in the country. It will also continue to actively engage with the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe, the Ministry of Mines and the Zimbabwe Stock Exchange in order to keep up with developments. Zimbabwe is one of the largest historical producers of gold and to date has mined 74.2 Moz. The country has 6,000 known gold deposits. Falgold and Olympus Gold Mines (100% owned by Central African Gold) control the rights to extensive claim areas located throughout Zimbabwe, with exploration properties and five mining operations centred on the Kadoma, Shurugwe and Bulawayo regions. | buystock | |
25/1/2010 05:08 | 7 years on gold multiples of 2003 price our ZIMBABWE asset Falgold booming but..... Although it made a profit of $739 million in the six months to March, gold producer Falcon Gold Zimbabwe (Falgold) says it might cease operations before the end of its financial year. It says the profit is likely to be wiped off by escalating costs which had gone up by 13 percent by the end of March. Since then, electricity had gone up by 1300 percent with the company's energy bill shooting up from $15 million a month to $169 million a month. The price of fuel had also gone up by 1000 percent. Besides, the company was dogged by electricity cuts which could cost it 10 kgs of gold each month. To add to its woes, the company had not been paid $559.3 million of its profit by the central bank, and at the time of reporting in mid-May, it was owed a further US$446 000, being the 50 percent foreign currency for the 82.6kgs it had produced since April 1. The company had made a dramatic turnaround from a net loss of $5.8 million during the first half of last year to a net profit of $502 million. It produced 63.42 kgs of gold a month in the six months. Dalny Mine produced 32.26 kgs a month with 18.73 kgs coming from the dump treatment and 13.52 kgs from underground mining. This was a slight decline from 25.9 kgs a month from dump treatment and 13.88 kgs from underground mining. Golden Quarry produced 15.69 kgs a month an increase from 13.23 kgs but production at Camperdown dropped from 19.05 kgs a month to 15.47 kgs. Venice Mine was non productive but was kept on a care and maintenance basis. Revenue for the mine shot up from $339.7 million to $2 billion more than the $1.4 billion the company realised for the year ending September. Its net profit for the year ending September was $27.4 million. But despite the news that the mine might close down, its share was the most popular on the Zimbabwe Stock Exchange and has risen by over 3700 percent since the beginning of the year.

24/1/2010 21:38 | read there december interim report like i said, its there for all to see, like i said we all knew, the general meeting was just a formality, now stop spamming the same news everywhere, i think we all seen it by now. MALIAN ASSETS DISPOSAL As announced on 18 December, the Company has entered into a binding agreement to dispose of (i) its 80 per cent. equity interest in Mali Goldfields SARL, together with all net claims on loan account of the Company or any of its subsidiaries against Mali Goldfields SARL and (ii) its 80 per cent equity interest in Songhoï Resources SARL together with all net claims on loan account of the Company or any of its subsidiaries against Songhoï Resources SARL (together 'the Malian Assets') ('the Disposal') to Colonial Resources ('the Agreement') for a total consideration of US$5.0 million ('the Consideration'). | daytraders | |
24/1/2010 17:36 | DANGER DANGER ROBSON has missed the boat all this bull about we knew in december about asset sale is nonesense it was not confirmed untill colonial resources raised the cash THEY HAVE NOW AND ASSET IS NOW ON THE WEBSITE.THE 10M DOLLARS that can needed for zimbabwe asset is there asset sale + fundraising thats done,next is partner news as mr pritchard promised.We look forward to resolving the future of the mines in a manner that ensures their continued operation and growth and thereby providing a secure and prosperous future to all staff and management," said Mr Pitchford in a statement in December. The decision by the board to reverse the intended sale of local assets comes at a time when the group said it would probably reinvest US$5 million realised from the disposal of its mining assets in Mali into its Zimbabwean operations. CAG also secured a US$1,2 million loan to capitalise its Zimbabwean mines. Recent reforms by the Government had given the group confidence to restart gold production, exploration and development programmes. "Subject to financing, we anticipate bringing Golden Quarry and Camperdown into production during 2010, before developing various other target properties," Mr Pitchford said. The group, in its annual report, said the board's experience remains that Zimbabwe is still a challenging environment in which to operate with ongoing and anticipated electricity shortages, a limited supply of skilled labour and very rundown plant and equipment. However, it added that once the initial production levels were achieved, plans would have to be put in place not only to update the plant, but also to increase gold production to better reflect the potential of the extensive gold deposits owned by the company. "After a turbulent start to the year, we are now focused on advancing our assets in Zimbabwe, which we believe offer excellent mid to longer-term prospects. "The political situation in Zimbabwe remains challenging. However, we believe we are seeing the first green shoots of recovery," added Mr Pitchford. He said substitution of the Zimbabwean dollar with the United States dollar and other hard currencies had vanquished hyperinflation and this and the recent World Bank grant all pointed to an improvement in operational conditions. "With this in mind, our immediate aim is to move into a cash-positive position and then expand production at our Zimbabwean mines," said Mr Pitchford. The group would look at the wider portfolio of existing assets with a view to enhancing their value and take advantage of their first mover position in the country to acquire additional projects. For the half year ended June 30 2009, the group produced 9,52kg of gold from 22 963 tonnes treated, a yield of 0,41 grams per tonne. Falgold attributed the reduced production to slow build-up following the decision to place the mines on care and maintenance since December 2008. Falcon Gold posted a loss of nearly US$2 million in the year ended June 2009. The company said the loss was a result of low production in the period after closing some mines over viability. Dalny Mine treated 22 963 tonnes of ore during the period producing 9,52kg of gold while Venice Mine remains on care and maintenance with initial exploration going on. | buystock | |

24/1/2010 07:45 | Malian Assets Colonial Resources Limited has recently secured two promising gold assets in Mali, West Africa consisting of 18 prospecting authorizations and research permits spanning circa 1883km² within the Kedougou-Kenieba window, a major Lower Proterozoic Birimian outlier on the NE margin of the West African Shield. Songhoï Resources represents the joint venture vehicle between CAG (80% equity interest) and Mani SARL (20% equity interest) established in August 2006 for the exploration and development of four exploration permits covering circa 350km2 in the prospective Kéniéba and Kayes districts in West Mali. Mali Goldfields represents the joint venture vehicle between CAG (80% equity interest) and Mali Mining House SA (20% equity interest) established in February 2006 for the exploration and development of fourteen exploration permits covering circa 1,533km2 of the prospective Birimian Gold Belt in South and West Mali. While Mali is Africa's third largest gold-producer, boasting some of the lowest-cost gold mines in the world, it remains one of the most underexplored gold terrains on the continent. Exploration focus in Mali is currently centred on two main greenstone belt areas in western and southern Mali namely, the Kayes and Kéniéba Inliers in the west (on the Mauritania and Senegal borders) and the Bougouni-Sikasso area to the south and southeast of the capital city Bamako (along the borders with Guinea Conakry and the Ivory Coast). | buystock | |
24/1/2010 07:37 | CASH ON ITS WAY Colonial Resources to buy $5.5m gold prospects in West Africa Neil Dowling From: Perth PERTH-based Colonial Resources will spend $5.5 million to buy the majority share of a suite of West African gold prospects. Colonial will buy 80 per cent of Central African Gold assets Mali Goldfields and Songhoi Resources to access 18 prospective permits covering 1883sq.km in Mali in north-west Africa. The properties have a 6.4 million tonne resource with 653,000 ounces of gold grading 3.17gpt gold and have substantial exploration potential, Colonial said Exploration targets totalling 4.5 million tonnes at an average of 3.6gpt gold for 520,000 ounces have been identified and verified, the company said. Colonial aims to raise almost $8 million through a shareholders entitlement offer to fund the purchase. It intends to offer a pro-rate non-renounceable rights issue of up to 112 million shares on the basis of seven new shares for each existing share at an issue price of 7c a share with a one-for-two free option. The option is exercisable at 20c on or before December 31, 2012 to raise up to $7.84 million. "The acquisition of the Malian assets represents an opportunity to secure a significant portfolio of tenements in a world-class gold region that will add significant growth potential for Colonial as well as increasing the diversity of its project portfolio," Colonial director Alex Pismiris said. In the meantime, Colonial has ceased its planned joint venture arrangement on its Eldorado gold project to focus on the Malian assets. Mali is Africa's third-biggest gold producer and is regarded as being one of the most under-explored gold terrains in the continent. | buystock | |

Harare, Jan 22, 2010 (The Herald/All Africa Global Media via COMTEX) -- CENTRAL African Gold's board is engaged in the identification of strategic financiers and partners to further develop its Zimbabwean assets after shelving plans to dispose of them. The company's chairperson and president, Mr Roy Pitchford, said the stated strategy of the board was to focus on the development of its Zimbabwean assets. "To that end, the board continues to be actively engaged in the identification of suitable sources of finance and/or partners with which to develop further the Zimbabwe assets, to the benefit of all shareholders "And also that the company is not currently examining a disposal of the Zimbabwe assets," said Mr Pitchford. The group operates Dalny Mine, Venice Mine, Golden Quarry Mine, Camperdown Mine Quarry and Old Nic Mine. Mr Pitchford had issued a statement saying several options were being considered, including further debt financing, introduction of strategic partners, and the sale of the Falcon Group, to investors who would undertake to provide adequate funding to fully restore the mining operations of the company. He added that CAG was to advise Falcon Gold on the future plans for the company during the first quarter of 2010. "We look forward to resolving the future of the mines in a manner that ensures their continued operation and growth and thereby providing a secure and prosperous future to all staff and management," said Mr Pitchford in a statement in December. The decision by the board to reverse the intended sale of local assets comes at a time when the group said it would probably reinvest US$5 million realised from the disposal of its mining assets in Mali into its Zimbabwean operations.

24/1/2010 06:47 | we can now push these assets on and mr pritchard has hinted at a partner see previous posts Zimbabwe Printer friendly February 2007 saw the purchase of Falgold (84.7%) and Olympus (100%) gold mining companies Initial attributable reserve estimate of 0.58 million ounces within 2.17 million ounces of gold in resources Sustain production levels around 20,000 ounces in the short-term Good infrastructure, a skilled workforce and easy logistical access to South Africa Central African Gold acquired an 84.7% interest in Falcon Gold Zimbabwe Limited (Falgold) and the entire issued share capital of Olympus Gold Mines Limited (Olympus), two Zimbabwean-based gold mining companies on 1 March 2007. Falgold and Olympus (both companies will be merged as Falgold) control the rights to extensive claim areas located throughout Zimbabwe, with exploration properties and five mining operations centered on the Kadoma, Shurugwe and Bulawayo regions. In the financial year to 31 September 2006, the companies generated turnover of ZIM$1.83 billion (approximately £3.75 million) and an attributable net profit of ZIM$199.7 million (approximately £409,045) having produced 21,031 ounces of gold. (Due to hyperinflation in Zimbabwe, the conversion rates from Zimbabwe Dollars to Pounds Sterling are likely to vary materially). While Falgold and Olympus have been valued on properties and operations that have mineral assets with defined mineral resources and ore reserves, the two companies have significant additional ground holdings, covering approximately 12,300 hectares, not included in the valuation but considered to be geologically prospective. A Competent Person's Report commissioned by CAG, indicates that with the requisite work, these additional properties could add material value to both Falgold and Olympus. Falgold, listed on the Zimbabwe Stock Exchange (ZSE), and Olympus, which is an unlisted private company, share the same management and majority shareholders. It is CAG's intention to incorporate the Olympus assets into Falgold, which will remain listed. CAG believes the listing gives the people of Zimbabwe access to an exciting company and sector of their economy. CAG continues to actively engage with the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe, Ministry of Mines and Zimbabwe Stock Exchange to ensure that Falgold is able to function effectively and efficiently. | buystock | |
24/1/2010 06:31 | LOOKS very much like the plan is all falling into place after fridays sale now given the green light and a very strong push north exciting times a return 2 dizzy heights Harare - LONDON-LISTED Central African Gold intends to merge its local mining operations, Falcon Gold Zimbabwe and Olympus Gold, with a view to listing the merged entity on the Zimbabwe Stock Exchange. CAG chief executive officer Mr Roy Pitchford told international media the move to merge the two was aimed at unlocking shareholder value. Mr Pitchford said CAG the move was meant to take advantage of foreign investors' current eagerness for local mining assets. "It would make sense to combine Falcon and Olympus to take advantage of investor appetite within Zimbabwe for exposure to mining," he said. Mr Pitchford said CAG was also exploring the option of listing on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange, Africa's largestbourse. "We are looking at a number of options and the benefit of a potential listing on the JSE". He also announced that the company has resumed limited operations at its Old Nic and Dalny mines while Camperdown and Golden Quarry mines were expected to come on line early this year. He said the company was working on raising US$10 million to recapitalise the mines, which, if successful, would help ramp production to 50 000 ounces per annum. "CAG does need to raise an initial US$10 million to refurbish aged plants, buy new equipment and develop the underground greenstone ore bodies to ramp up production over the next 18 to 24 months to levels the company had some years ago of 30 000 to 50 000 ounces a year," Mr Pitchford said. CAG shareholders have reportedly provided US$1,25 million working capital for the group. Recently CAG said they were considering selling some of their Zimbabwean operations to provide adequate funding to restore mining operations. In a statement, Mr Pitchford indicated that the group was also considering the introduction of a strategic partner at group level for Falcon Gold Zimbabwe Limited to finance operations as well as debt financing. CAG operates Dalny Mine, Venice Mine, Golden Quarry Mine, Camperdown Mine Quarry and the Old Nic Mine. The group said recent reforms by the Government had provided them with confidence to restart gold production, exploration and development programmes.
