TORONTO (miningweekly.com) –
Strong operating margins from higher realised gold prices and low cash costs contributed to Canadian miner Alamos Gold reporting record cash and earnings from higher production and sales in the fourth quarter of 2012.
The company on Thursday said quarterly earnings rose by 78% year-on-year to $37.9-million, or 31c a share, as a result of more ounces sold and a lower effective tax rate.
Alamos sold 62 516 oz of gold for record quarterly revenues of $106.9-million.
Earnings rose by 78% year-on-year to $37.9-million or $0.31 a share during the quarter ended December 31.
The company reported record cash from operating activities before changes in noncash working capital of $53.5-million or 44c a share and after changes in noncash working capital of $69.2-million or 57c a share.
For the quarter, the company produced a record 67 800 oz of gold at a cash operating cost of $377/oz of gold sold, excluding royalties.
For the full year, Alamos sold 197 516 oz of gold at an average realised price of $1 668/oz, for revenues of $329.4-million.
Full-year earnings were $118-million or 98c a share, compared with earnings of $60.1-million or 51c a share in 2011.
“In 2012, Alamos achieved the best performance for any year in its history and, in the final three months, posted record results for any quarter. We established a new benchmark by producing 200 000 oz of gold in 2012 (including 67 800 oz in the fourth quarter) at a cash operating cost of $355/oz, which is at industry-leading low levels,” president and CEO John McCluskey said in a statement.
Alamos said it remained on track with the permitting of its late-stage development projects in Turkey. “We anticipate responses from the Turkish Government on our environmental impact assessment submissions for Kirazli and Ağı Dağı by the end of the first and second quarters respectively, and we expect our outstanding cash flow and balance sheet will enable us to self-finance the construction of these mines” he added.
The company, which started trading on the NYSE last week, expects to produce between 180 000 oz and 200 000 oz at a cash operating cost of $415/oz to $435/oz sold, excluding a 5% royalty.
Meanwhile, on January 14, the company announced an offer to acquire Aurizon Mines for about C$780-million in cash and shares. Last week, Alamos and Aurizon consented to an order by the British Columbia Securities Commission to cease trade the Aurizon shareholder rights plan on March 4, which prompted Alamos to extend the offer to 17:00 on March 5.
The company’s stock traded at C$13.68 apiece on the TSX on Thursday at noon.

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2012 Financial Results
Strong operating margins from higher realized gold prices and continued low cash costs contributed to the Company generating record cash provided by operating activities and earnings in the fourth quarter of 2012. Cash from operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital in the fourth quarter of 2012 of $53.5 million ($0.44 per basic share) increased 68% relative to the same period of 2011.
Earnings before income taxes in the fourth quarter of 2012 were $51.9 million or $0.43 per basic share, compared to $37.1 million or $0.31 per basic share in the fourth quarter of 2011. On an after-tax basis, earnings in the fourth quarter of 2012 of $37.9 million or $0.31 per basic share increased 78% over the comparable period of 2011 as a result of a higher number of ounces sold and a lower effective tax rate.
On a year-to-date basis, cash flows from operations and earnings increased substantially in 2012 relative to 2011. For the year ended December 31, 2012, cash from operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital of $178.5 million ($1.49 per basic share) increased 68% compared to $106.5 million ($0.91 per basic share) in 2011. Earnings of $118.0 million ($0.98 per basic share) increased 96% compared to $60.1 million ($0.51 per basic share) in 2011.
Capital expenditures for 2012 totalled $57.4 million. Operating capital spending in Mexico in 2012 included sustaining and expansion capital of $20.8 million, consisting of $1.4 million for construction primarily related to achieving cyanide code certification, $4.9 million related to completing the gravity mill and crushing circuit in the first quarter, $5.7 million for component changes, $2.0 million for the addition of interlift liners on the leach pad and $6.8 million of other capital.
In addition, the Company invested $17.4 million in development activities in Mexico, focused on completing Escondida stripping activities and capitalized exploration expenditures, as well as $18.9 million on development projects in Turkey.
Key financial highlights for the fourth quarter and full year 2012 compared to the fourth quarter and full year 2011 are presented at the end of this release in Table 1. The unaudited consolidated statements of financial position, comprehensive income, and cash flows for the three months and years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 are presented at the end of this release in Table 2.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2012 Operating Results
In the fourth quarter of 2012, production reached a record of 67,800 ounces of gold, 46% higher than production of 46,500 ounces in the fourth quarter of 2011, and 41% higher than the previous quarterly production record of 48,200 ounces. Gold production in the fourth quarter benefited from higher than budgeted throughput and grade from the gravity mill, which is processing ore from the Escondida high-grade zone.
Total crusher throughput in the fourth quarter of 2012 averaged a record 17,900 tpd, above the annual budgeted rate of 17,500 tpd and 12% higher than 16,000 tpd in the same period last year. Higher crusher throughput was achieved through a reduction in downtime resulting from improved maintenance practices. Mill production from the Escondida high-grade zone continued to improve in the fourth quarter of 2012, with daily average throughput of 630 tonnes exceeding budgeted levels.
The grade of the crushed ore stacked on the leach pad in the fourth quarter of 2012 of 1.20 g/t Au was higher than the full year budgeted grade of 1.00 g/t Au, but below the grade in the fourth quarter of 2011 of 1.33 g/t Au. Applying higher gold price assumptions to the mine model has resulted in material previously classified as waste becoming economic to mine and therefore classified as low grade ore. This has the effect of lowering the average grade mined.
The grade of the Escondida high-grade zone mined and milled rose to 14.12 g/t Au in the fourth quarter, an increase from the grade milled in the third quarter of 13.25 g/t Au.
The ratio of ounces produced to contained ounces stacked or milled ("recovery ratio") was 78% in the fourth quarter of 2012. The recovery ratio in the fourth quarter benefited from gold production deferred from the third quarter as a result of dilution on the heap leach pad during the rainy season.
Higher gold production for the full year 2012 relative to the same period of 2011 was primarily attributable to production from the gravity mill, which started operation in early 2012. Gold production in 2012 also benefited from a 13% increase in crushed ore stacked in relation to the same period of 2011, partially offset by a 9% decrease in the grade stacked on the leach pad.
Cash operating costs in 2012 were $355 per ounce of gold sold, below the Company's revised full year guidance range of $360 per ounce. Cash operating costs per ounce in 2012 were 4% less than in the same period last year due to lower cost ounces produced from the gravity mill in 2012, as well as the weakening Mexican peso, partially offset by higher input costs.
Crusher throughput in 2012 averaged 16,000 tpd, 13% higher than 14,100 tpd in the same period of last year. Crusher throughput increased steadily throughout 2012, reaching 17,900 tpd in the fourth quarter. The Company anticipates crusher throughput in 2013 will average 17,500 tpd.
The grade of the crushed ore stacked on the leach pad in 2012 of 1.19 g/t Au was 19% higher than the full year budgeted grade of 1.00 g/t Au. The reconciliation of mined blocks to the block model for the Global Mulatos Pit, including Escondida, for the year ended December 31, 2012 was +7%, +6% and +14% for tonnes, grade and ounces respectively. Since the start of mining activities in 2005, the reconciliation is +2%, +7%, +10% for tonnes, grade and ounces, respectively. Positive variances indicate that the Company is mining more gold than was indicated in the reserve model.
Improvements in ore control practices throughout the year have been reflected in the grade mined and milled as well as the block model reconciliation results. The grade milled in 2012 was 12.49 g/t Au, and improved every quarter since the start-up of the gravity mill in the first quarter. To date, the Company has mined and milled a total of 176,000 tonnes from the Escondida high-grade zone, representing approximately 41% of the pit-contained high-grade mineral reserve tonnes.
The recovery ratio in 2012 was 70%, below the Company's budgeted average recovery ratio for the year of 77%. This lower recovery ratio was the result of the deferral of gold production from the gravity mill as a result of lower than budgeted mill recoveries.
Key operational metrics and production statistics for the fourth quarter and full year 2012 compared to the same periods of 2011 are presented in Table 3 at the end of this press release.
Turkey Developments
The Company has submitted the final environmental impact assessment ("EIA") report for Kirazli, and expects a response from the Turkish Government in the first quarter of 2013. The final Agi Dagi EIA report is expected to be submitted in the first quarter of 2013, with a response expected in the second quarter. Permitting and construction activities are expected to take up to 18 months once the EIAs are approved. The Company is also committed to aggressively drilling the Camyurt project to bring inferred mineral resource ounces into the measured and indicated categories, which is the next step in fast-tracking Camyurt toward production.
Fourth Quarter 2012 Exploration Update
Total exploration expenditures in 2012 were $18.0 million. In Mexico, total exploration spending was $8.9 million. This included $5.9 million of drilling costs at East Estrella, San Carlos and El Victor, which were capitalized, and $3.0 million of early-stage exploration and administration costs, which were expensed. Total exploration spending in Turkey was $9.1 million, of which $3.5 million related to drilling at Firetower and Rock Pile was expensed, while $5.6 million related to development work at Camyurt, Agi Dagi and Kirazli was capitalized.
Mexico
Exploration expenditures in Mexico in 2012 totalled $8.9 million. The Company completed 48,822 metres ("m") of reverse circulation ("RC") drilling in 453 holes and 7,174 m of core drilling in 40 holes in 2012. Exploration activities in the fourth quarter were primarily focused on completing infill and step-out drilling programs at El Victor and East Estrella to upgrade mineral resources to the measured and indicated categories, and continued deep directional drilling at San Carlos. Three drill rigs were active during the fourth quarter, with two rigs allocated to drilling at San Carlos.
El Victor North
The El Victor North area contains gold-bearing silica and advanced argillic alteration contiguous with the El Victor deposit. El Victor North has the potential to expand mineral resources and reserves along the northern boundary of the Gap to El Victor trend. The results of the drill program are expected to extend the El Victor pit design north and west of the current pit design outline.
Total exploration spending at El Victor North was $2.8 million with a total of 3,124 m in four RC holes, for a total of 2,300 m in 13 core holes and 18,145 m in 120 RC holes drilled in 2012. Ore-grade mineralization has been extended up to 300 m to the north over a strike length of 550 m contiguous with the El Victor mineral reserve. Wide intervals of low-grade mineralization with local high-grade intercepts have been encountered. The majority of thick low-grade intercepts are hosted by advanced argillic alteration, with local high-grade gold in vuggy silica zones. The Company completed the infill and step-out drilling program to upgrade the resource to the measured and indicated category. New drill holes at the extreme north edge of the deposit extend the deposit an additional 80 m north of previous intercepts to a distance 420 m north of the main El Victor deposit axis.
Recent highlighted intercepts from drilling include:
2.040 g/t Au over 76.22 m (12EV242)
1.735 g/t Au over 50.80 m (12EV248)
1.304 g/t Au over 27.44 m and 1.725 g/t Au over 30.49 m (12EV289)
Drilling was completed prior to year end, with results to be included in the 2012 mineral reserve and resource update. Relevant assay results from the recent drilling at El Victor North are presented in Table 4 at the end of this press release. Locations of the drill collars of the highlighted drill intercepts at El Victor North are presented in Figure 1.
East Estrella
Exploration drilling directly east of the Mulatos pit southeast wall continued through the quarter. Condemnation drilling completed to investigate a proposed waste dump site east of the Estrella Pit by previous operators encountered a number of near-surface gold intercepts along with localized high-grade silver mineralization. Drilling earlier in the year confirmed widespread gold-silver-copper mineralization in the area, and the program expanded significantly to develop measured and indicated resources. Mineralization in the northern part of the project area is gold-dominant, near-surface, and stratiform, and structurally controlled with higher contents of silver and copper to the south. An additional 3,386 m of drilling was completed in 26 RC holes during the quarter, for a total of 13,165 m in 93 RC and 920 m in seven core holes.
Recent highlighted intercepts from drilling conducted to date include:
1.798 g/t Au over 25.55 m (12SX064)
4.396 g/t Au over 51.65 m, including 9.983 g/t Au over 5.45 m and 7.371
g/t Au over 6.5 m (12SX081)
2.600 g/t Au over 24.60 m (12SX089)
Highlighted silver intercepts from recent drilling include:
386.2 g/t Ag over 13.10 m (12SX069)
1078.4 g/t Ag over 5.70 m (12SX070)
403.2 g/t Ag over 9.30 m (12SX077)
121.1 g/t Ag over 17.80m (12SX081)
Relevant assay results from the recent drilling at East Estrella are presented in Tables 5 and 6 at the end of this press release. Locations of the drill collars of the highlighted drill intercepts at East Estrella are presented in Figure 2.
San Carlos
Drilling resumed at San Carlos during the fourth quarter, targeted at deep high-grade gold mineralization extending to the east of the San Carlos resource and reserve. High-grade intercepts have been encountered up to 500 m from the existing pit boundary. An infill and step-out directional drilling program is currently in progress to define the mineralization extents and develop the resource. Drill progress has been relatively slow at San Carlos due to the directional drilling complexity and deep, deviating drill holes that have to be steered to the target. During the fourth quarter, nine directional holes were completed by RC pilot holes with core tails, for a total of 3,096 m of drilling. In 2012, a total of 9,386 m of drilling was completed in 25 RC holes, and 1,319 m in three core holes.
In 2011, the Company obtained positive results from metallurgical testing conducted on high-grade ore at San Carlos. The results indicated that the high-grade ore at San Carlos is amenable to gravity separation and capable of providing an additional source of feed for the gravity mill. Ultimate recovery rates (gravity separation followed by leaching the tailings with cyanide) were 78% and 70% for the two large samples processed. The Company has high-grade proven and probable mineral reserves at San Carlos of 649,000 tonnes grading 7.670 g/t Au for approximately 160,000 contained ounces. The Company continues to evaluate the potential to mine a portion of the San Carlos deposit through underground mining methods.
Highlighted intercepts from recently conducted drilling include:
7.729 g/t Au over 4.65 m (12SC177)
3.839 g/t Au over 17.55 m, including 10.517 g/t Au over 4.15 m (12SC178)
5.154 g/t Au over 17.3 m (12SC178B)
12.850 g/t Au over 6.09m, including 24.325 g/t Au over 3.04m (12SC183)
Relevant assay results from the recent drilling at San Carlos are presented in Table 7 at the end of this press release. Locations of the drill collars of the highlighted drill intercepts at San Carlos are presented in Figure 3.
El Realito
Drill hole data from the 2004 to 2006 El Realito drilling programs has been re-evaluated in light of current gold prices and developed into a new geologic model that will be subject to a preliminary resource estimation. Oxide gold mineralization with local high-grade intervals was delineated during the previous exploration programs, and mineralization remains open. A 60-hole infill and step-out drilling program is planned for the first half of 2013 to further develop the resource.

Exploration expenditures in Turkey totalled $9.1 million in 2012. Up to eight drill rigs were active throughout the fourth quarter, drilling a total of 30,478 m in 165 holes in 2012. Drilling included 22 holes across the project, for engineering purposes.
Camyurt
Resource infill and expansion drilling continued through the fourth quarter and is ongoing, with 8,302 m completed in 47 core holes in 2012. The Company published an initial pit-constrained inferred mineral resource estimate of 24.6 million tonnes grading 0.810 g/t Au and 4.7 g/t Ag for 640,000 ounces of gold and 3.8 million ounces of silver at Camyurt, applying a 0.2 g/t Au cut-off. The Camyurt project is located approximately three km southeast of the Company's development-stage Agi Dagi project. Drilling at Camyurt has defined a mineralized zone that is continuous for at least 1,200 m along strike, with additional potential to extend mineralization to the northeast and at depth.
Gold mineralization is hosted within a tabular, steeply-dipping oxidized zone starting at surface and with a cross-strike width up to 150 m. The average drill spacing is approximately 55 m along strike, and 59 drill holes were used in the estimate. The new inferred mineral resource estimate for Camyurt represents a significant addition to the Company's mineral resource base in Turkey. In addition, the average grade of the mineral resource is substantially higher than at the Agi Dagi and Kirazli projects. The Company intends to continue expanding mineral resources at Camyurt in 2013.
Recent highlighted intercept from drilling conducted to date include:
1.718 g/t Au over 55.1 m (12CYD64)
2.708 g/t Au over 17.0 m (12CYD68)
1.243 g/t Au over 126.2 m (12CYD70)
1.035 g/t Au over 96.7 m (12CYD71)
2.900 g/t Au over 23.6 m (12CYD72)
Relevant assay results from the recent drilling at Camyurt are presented in Table 8 at the end of this press release. Locations of the drill collars of the highlighted drill intercepts at Camyurt are presented in Figure 4.
Agi Dagi
The Agi Dagi project is comprised of the two principle resource areas at Baba and Deli, connected by the Firetower zone of advanced argillic and silic alteration. The Baba-Firetower-Deli zone of mineralization extends at least 4.3 kilometers ("km") along a northeast-southwest trend. During 2012, 42 drill holes were completed at Baba and Firetower, for 10,990 m of drilling.
A portion of the Firetower mineral resource area was included in the Company's year-end 2011 mineral reserve and resource statement as inferred mineral resources. However, these were not incorporated into the June 2012 preliminary feasibility study as it included only measured and indicated resources. Upgrading these mineral resources to measured and indicated is expected to improve the economics of the Agi Dagi project.
Two parallel trends of advanced argillic and silicic alteration occur to the northwest of the Baba-Deli trend. The Ayi Tepe-Firetower North zone is approximately two km long, defined by relatively wide spaced drilling. Similar alteration occurs along the discontinuous Tavasan-Ihlamur zone, approximately 4.5 km long. Both zones have not been fully defined by drilling. The Ayi Tepe-Firetower North and Tavasan-Ihlamur zones occur approximately 300 m and one km northwest of the Baba-Deli trend, respectively. Fifteen exploration drill holes were completed in these areas in 2012, for 3,836 m of drilling.
Highlighted intercepts from drilling include:
2.180 g/t Au over 50.3 m, including 7.23 g/t Au over 7.1 m (11AD546)
1.372 g/t Au over 42.5 m (12AD609)
Relevant assay results from the recent drilling at Agi Dagi are presented in Table 9 at the end of this press release.
Kirazli
The 2012 drill program at Kirazli was completed in the previous quarter, with 19 infill and expansion holes drilled at the Kirazli main zone, and 14 completed at Rockpile.
Recent highlighted intercept from drilling include:
5.948 g/t Au over 10.3 m (12KD200)
1.620 g/t Au over 32.6 m (12KD205)
2.211 g/t Au over 22.6 m (12KD208)
Relevant assay results from the recent drilling at Kirazli are presented in Table 10 at the end of this press release.
Outlook
The Company anticipates producing between 180,000 and 200,000 ounces of gold in 2013 at a cash operating cost of $415 to $435 per ounce of gold sold, excluding a 5% royalty. If the 5% royalty is included, and assuming a $1,700 gold price, total cash costs are expected to be between $500 and $520 per ounce of gold sold.
The 2013 Mulatos capital and development budget is $40.7 million. Operating and expansion capital spending is forecasted to be approximately $21.4 million in 2013, consistent with 2012. Development spending in 2013 is budgeted to be $19.3 million and will be focused on underground development of the San Carlos and Escondida North areas, in order to access high-grade ore to provide additional gravity mill feed. In addition, the Company expects to commence construction of an access ramp from the Estrella portion of the Mulatos Pit to the El Victor and San Carlos deposit areas.
The Company's mineral reserve and resource update is expected to be released at the end of the first quarter of 2013. The current focus of exploration at Mulatos is on continuing to delineate high-grade mineral reserves to provide mill feed beyond the life of the Escondida high-grade deposit.
In Turkey, the Company published an NI 43-101 compliant preliminary feasibility study summary of the Agi Dagi and Kirazli projects in June 2012, which demonstrated robust economics and supported the Company's decision to proceed with permitting and development activities. Total development spending related to the Turkish projects in 2013 is expected to be approximately $69.3 million.
In the first quarter of 2013, the Company expects to receive a response from the Turkish government with respect to EIA approval for the Kirazli project. The final EIA for the Agi Dagi project will be submitted in the first quarter of 2013 with approval expected in the second quarter of the year. The Company is also committed to aggressively drilling the Camyurt project, which is the next step in fast-tracking the project toward production.
The Company continues to strengthen its financial position, generating over $131 million in free cash flow from the Mulatos Mine in 2012. The Company's development capital and exploration spending in 2013 is all expected to be financed from cash flow.
If the acquisition of Aurizon is successful, the combined Company will have geographic and operational diversity, with producing assets in Canada and Mexico and a strong growth development pipeline in Turkey. Furthermore, after payment of the CAD$305 million cash portion of the acquisition cost, it is expected that the combined Company would have in excess of $250 million in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, providing a strong financial platform for future organic growth or acquisitions.
Update on Aurizon Offer
On January 14, 2013, the Company announced that it has commenced an offer to acquire Aurizon Mines Ltd. ("Aurizon") for approximately CAD$780 million in cash and shares (the "Offer"). On February 18, 2013, Alamos and Aurizon consented to an order by the British Columbia Securities Commission to cease trade the Aurizon Shareholder Rights Plan on March 4, 2013. Accordingly, the Company announced that it was extending the Offer to 5:00 p.m. (local time) on March 5, 2013, unless further extended or withdrawn.
Under the terms of the Offer, Alamos proposes to acquire all of the issued and outstanding Aurizon Shares ("Aurizon Shares") for consideration of, at the election of each Aurizon shareholder, either (i) 0.2801 common shares of the Company ("Alamos Shares"), or (ii) CAD$4.65 in cash, in each case, subject to pro-ration based on a maximum cash consideration of CAD$305 million and a maximum number of Alamos Shares issued of 23,500,000.
Prior to January 14, 2013, Alamos acquired, for the same consideration available to Aurizon shareholders under the Offer, 23,507,283 Aurizon Shares pursuant to share purchase agreements entered into between Alamos and certain shareholders of Aurizon. After giving effect to the transactions referred to above, Alamos owns or controls 26,507,283 Aurizon Shares, representing over 16% of the issued and outstanding Aurizon Shares.
The Offer is conditional upon Alamos acquiring that number of Aurizon shares, which, together with the Aurizon shares already owned by Alamos, represent not less than 66 2/3 percent of the outstanding Aurizon Shares calculated on a fully-diluted basis, as well as receipt of all necessary governmental or regulatory approvals and other customary unsolicited offer conditions.

Cautionary non-GAAP Measures and Additional GAAP Measures
Note that for purposes of this section, GAAP refers to IFRS. The Company believes that investors use certain non-GAAP and additional GAAP measures as indicators to assess gold mining companies. They are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared with GAAP.
Additional GAAP measures that are presented on the face of the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income include "Mine operating costs", "Earnings from mine operations" and "Earnings from operations". These measures are intended to provide an indication of the Company's mine and operating performance. "Cash flow from operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital" is a non-GAAP performance measure that could provide an indication of the Company's ability to generate cash flows from operations, and is calculated by adding back the change in non-cash working capital to "Cash provided by (used in) operating activities" as presented on the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows. "Mining cost per tonne of ore" and "Cost per tonne of ore" are non-GAAP performance measures that could provide an indication of the mining and processing efficiency and effectiveness of the mine. These measures are calculated by dividing the relevant mining and processing costs and total costs by the tonnes of ore processed in the period. "Cost per tonne of ore" is usually affected by operating efficiencies and waste-to-ore ratios in the period. "Cash operating costs per ounce" and "total cash costs per ounce" as used in this analysis are non-GAAP terms typically used by gold mining companies to assess the level of gross margin available to the Company by subtracting these costs from the unit price realized during the period. These non-GAAP terms are also used to assess the ability of a mining company to generate cash flow from operations. There may be some variation in the method of computation of "cash operating costs per ounce" as determined by the Company compared with other mining companies. In this context, "cash operating costs per ounce" reflects the cash operating costs allocated from in-process and dore inventory associated with ounces of gold sold in the period. "Cash operating costs per ounce" may vary from one period to another due to operating efficiencies, waste-to-ore ratios, grade of ore processed and gold recovery rates in the period. "Total cash costs per ounce" includes "cash operating costs per ounce" plus applicable royalties. Cash operating costs per ounce and total cash costs per ounce are exclusive of exploration costs. Non-GAAP and additional GAAP measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
Cautionary Note
No stock exchange, securities commission or other regulatory authority has approved or disapproved the information contained herein. This News Release includes certain "forward-looking statements". All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this release, including without limitation statements regarding forecast gold production, gold grades, recoveries, waste-to-ore ratios, total cash costs, potential mineralization and reserves, exploration results, and future plans and objectives of Alamos, are forward-looking statements that involve various risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to mining and processing of mined ore, achieving projected recovery rates, anticipated production rates and mine life, operating efficiencies, costs and expenditures, changes in mineral resources and conversion of mineral resources to proven and probable reserves, and other information that is based on forecasts of future operational or financial results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and assumptions of management.
Exploration results that include geophysics, sampling, and drill results on wide spacings may not be indicative of the occurrence of a mineral deposit. Such results do not provide assurance that further work will establish sufficient grade, continuity, metallurgical characteristics and economic potential to be classed as a category of mineral resource. A mineral resource that is classified as "inferred" or "indicated" has a great amount of uncertainty as to its existence and economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that any or part of an "indicated mineral resource" or "inferred mineral resource" will ever be upgraded to a higher category of resource. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into proven and probable reserves.
Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate", "plans", "estimates" or "intends", or stating that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved) are not statements of historical fact and may be "forward-looking statements." Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events or results to differ from those reflected in the forward-looking statements.
There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from Alamos' expectations include, among others, risks related to international operations, the actual results of current exploration activities, conclusions of economic evaluations and changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined as well as future prices of gold and silver, as well as those factors discussed in the section entitled "Risk Factors" in Alamos' Annual Information Form. Although Alamos has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
Note to U.S. Investors
Alamos prepares its disclosure in accordance with the requirements of securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of U.S. securities laws. Terms relating to mineral resources in this presentation are defined in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects under the guidelines set out in the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy, and Petroleum Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves. The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") permits mining companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only those mineral deposits that a company can economically and legally extract or produce. Alamos may use certain terms, such as "measured mineral resources", "indicated mineral resources", "inferred mineral resources" and "probable mineral reserves" that the SEC does not recognize (these terms may be used in this presentation and are included in the public filings of Alamos, which have been filed with the SEC and the securities commissions or similar authorities in Canada).

Alamos Gold Reports Fourth Quarter and Year-end 2012 Results / Best Quarter and Year in the Company's History Continued Exploration Success at San Carlos and Camyurt
TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 02/21/13 -- Alamos Gold Inc. (TSX: AGI)(NYSE: AGI) ("Alamos" or the "Company") today reported its financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2012 and reviewed its operating, exploration and development activities. All amounts are expressed in United States dollars unless otherwise specified.
"In 2012, Alamos achieved the best performance for any year in its history and, in the final three months, posted record results for any quarter. We established a new benchmark by producing 200,000 ounces of gold in 2012 (including 67,800 ounces in the fourth quarter) at a cash operating cost of $355 per ounce, which is at industry-leading low levels. On a quarterly and annual basis, we set records in terms of earnings, earnings per share, operating cash flow, and other key metrics. Moreover, the Company's performance reflects our ongoing success in achieving outstanding organic growth," said John A. McCluskey, President and Chief Executive Officer.
"In Turkey, we remain on schedule with respect to the permitting of our late-stage development projects. We anticipate responses from the Turkish Government on our Environmental Impact Assessment submissions for Kirazli and Agi Dagi by the end of the first and second quarters of 2013, respectively, and we expect our outstanding cash flow and balance sheet will enable us to self-finance the construction of these mines," Mr. McCluskey commented.

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2012 Financial Results
Strong operating margins from higher realized gold prices and continued low cash costs contributed to the Company generating record cash provided by operating activities and earnings in the fourth quarter of 2012. Cash from operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital in the fourth quarter of 2012 of $53.5 million ($0.44 per basic share) increased 68% relative to the same period of 2011.
Earnings before income taxes in the fourth quarter of 2012 were $51.9 million or $0.43 per basic share, compared to $37.1 million or $0.31 per basic share in the fourth quarter of 2011. On an after-tax basis, earnings in the fourth quarter of 2012 of $37.9 million or $0.31 per basic share increased 78% over the comparable period of 2011 as a result of a higher number of ounces sold and a lower effective tax rate.
On a year-to-date basis, cash flows from operations and earnings increased substantially in 2012 relative to 2011. For the year ended December 31, 2012, cash from operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital of $178.5 million ($1.49 per basic share) increased 68% compared to $106.5 million ($0.91 per basic share) in 2011. Earnings of $118.0 million ($0.98 per basic share) increased 96% compared to $60.1 million ($0.51 per basic share) in 2011.
Capital expenditures for 2012 totalled $57.4 million. Operating capital spending in Mexico in 2012 included sustaining and expansion capital of $20.8 million, consisting of $1.4 million for construction primarily related to achieving cyanide code certification, $4.9 million related to completing the gravity mill and crushing circuit in the first quarter, $5.7 million for component changes, $2.0 million for the addition of interlift liners on the leach pad and $6.8 million of other capital.
In addition, the Company invested $17.4 million in development activities in Mexico, focused on completing Escondida stripping activities and capitalized exploration expenditures, as well as $18.9 million on development projects in Turkey.
Key financial highlights for the fourth quarter and full year 2012 compared to the fourth quarter and full year 2011 are presented at the end of this release in Table 1. The unaudited consolidated statements of financial position, comprehensive income, and cash flows for the three months and years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 are presented at the end of this release in Table 2.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2012 Operating Results
In the fourth quarter of 2012, production reached a record of 67,800 ounces of gold, 46% higher than production of 46,500 ounces in the fourth quarter of 2011, and 41% higher than the previous quarterly production record of 48,200 ounces. Gold production in the fourth quarter benefited from higher than budgeted throughput and grade from the gravity mill, which is processing ore from the Escondida high-grade zone.
Total crusher throughput in the fourth quarter of 2012 averaged a record 17,900 tpd, above the annual budgeted rate of 17,500 tpd and 12% higher than 16,000 tpd in the same period last year. Higher crusher throughput was achieved through a reduction in downtime resulting from improved maintenance practices. Mill production from the Escondida high-grade zone continued to improve in the fourth quarter of 2012, with daily average throughput of 630 tonnes exceeding budgeted levels.
The grade of the crushed ore stacked on the leach pad in the fourth quarter of 2012 of 1.20 g/t Au was higher than the full year budgeted grade of 1.00 g/t Au, but below the grade in the fourth quarter of 2011 of 1.33 g/t Au. Applying higher gold price assumptions to the mine model has resulted in material previously classified as waste becoming economic to mine and therefore classified as low grade ore. This has the effect of lowering the average grade mined.
The grade of the Escondida high-grade zone mined and milled rose to 14.12 g/t Au in the fourth quarter, an increase from the grade milled in the third quarter of 13.25 g/t Au.
The ratio of ounces produced to contained ounces stacked or milled ("recovery ratio") was 78% in the fourth quarter of 2012. The recovery ratio in the fourth quarter benefited from gold production deferred from the third quarter as a result of dilution on the heap leach pad during the rainy season.
Higher gold production for the full year 2012 relative to the same period of 2011 was primarily attributable to production from the gravity mill, which started operation in early 2012. Gold production in 2012 also benefited from a 13% increase in crushed ore stacked in relation to the same period of 2011, partially offset by a 9% decrease in the grade stacked on the leach pad.
Cash operating costs in 2012 were $355 per ounce of gold sold, below the Company's revised full year guidance range of $360 per ounce. Cash operating costs per ounce in 2012 were 4% less than in the same period last year due to lower cost ounces produced from the gravity mill in 2012, as well as the weakening Mexican peso, partially offset by higher input costs.
Crusher throughput in 2012 averaged 16,000 tpd, 13% higher than 14,100 tpd in the same period of last year. Crusher throughput increased steadily throughout 2012, reaching 17,900 tpd in the fourth quarter. The Company anticipates crusher throughput in 2013 will average 17,500 tpd.
The grade of the crushed ore stacked on the leach pad in 2012 of 1.19 g/t Au was 19% higher than the full year budgeted grade of 1.00 g/t Au. The reconciliation of mined blocks to the block model for the Global Mulatos Pit, including Escondida, for the year ended December 31, 2012 was +7%, +6% and +14% for tonnes, grade and ounces respectively. Since the start of mining activities in 2005, the reconciliation is +2%, +7%, +10% for tonnes, grade and ounces, respectively. Positive variances indicate that the Company is mining more gold than was indicated in the reserve model.
Improvements in ore control practices throughout the year have been reflected in the grade mined and milled as well as the block model reconciliation results. The grade milled in 2012 was 12.49 g/t Au, and improved every quarter since the start-up of the gravity mill in the first quarter. To date, the Company has mined and milled a total of 176,000 tonnes from the Escondida high-grade zone, representing approximately 41% of the pit-contained high-grade mineral reserve tonnes.
The recovery ratio in 2012 was 70%, below the Company's budgeted average recovery ratio for the year of 77%. This lower recovery ratio was the result of the deferral of gold production from the gravity mill as a result of lower than budgeted mill recoveries.
Key operational metrics and production statistics for the fourth quarter and full year 2012 compared to the same periods of 2011 are presented in Table 3 at the end of this press release.
Turkey Developments
The Company has submitted the final environmental impact assessment ("EIA") report for Kirazli, and expects a response from the Turkish Government in the first quarter of 2013. The final Agi Dagi EIA report is expected to be submitted in the first quarter of 2013, with a response expected in the second quarter. Permitting and construction activities are expected to take up to 18 months once the EIAs are approved. The Company is also committed to aggressively drilling the Camyurt project to bring inferred mineral resource ounces into the measured and indicated categories, which is the next step in fast-tracking Camyurt toward production.
Fourth Quarter 2012 Exploration Update
Total exploration expenditures in 2012 were $18.0 million. In Mexico, total exploration spending was $8.9 million. This included $5.9 million of drilling costs at East Estrella, San Carlos and El Victor, which were capitalized, and $3.0 million of early-stage exploration and administration costs, which were expensed. Total exploration spending in Turkey was $9.1 million, of which $3.5 million related to drilling at Firetower and Rock Pile was expensed, while $5.6 million related to development work at Camyurt, Agi Dagi and Kirazli was capitalized.
Mexico
Exploration expenditures in Mexico in 2012 totalled $8.9 million. The Company completed 48,822 metres ("m") of reverse circulation ("RC") drilling in 453 holes and 7,174 m of core drilling in 40 holes in 2012. Exploration activities in the fourth quarter were primarily focused on completing infill and step-out drilling programs at El Victor and East Estrella to upgrade mineral resources to the measured and indicated categories, and continued deep directional drilling at San Carlos. Three drill rigs were active during the fourth quarter, with two rigs allocated to drilling at San Carlos.
El Victor North
The El Victor North area contains gold-bearing silica and advanced argillic alteration contiguous with the El Victor deposit. El Victor North has the potential to expand mineral resources and reserves along the northern boundary of the Gap to El Victor trend. The results of the drill program are expected to extend the El Victor pit design north and west of the current pit design outline.
Total exploration spending at El Victor North was $2.8 million with a total of 3,124 m in four RC holes, for a total of 2,300 m in 13 core holes and 18,145 m in 120 RC holes drilled in 2012. Ore-grade mineralization has been extended up to 300 m to the north over a strike length of 550 m contiguous with the El Victor mineral reserve. Wide intervals of low-grade mineralization with local high-grade intercepts have been encountered. The majority of thick low-grade intercepts are hosted by advanced argillic alteration, with local high-grade gold in vuggy silica zones. The Company completed the infill and step-out drilling program to upgrade the resource to the measured and indicated category. New drill holes at the extreme north edge of the deposit extend the deposit an additional 80 m north of previous intercepts to a distance 420 m north of the main El Victor deposit axis.
Recent highlighted intercepts from drilling include:
2.040 g/t Au over 76.22 m (12EV242)
1.735 g/t Au over 50.80 m (12EV248)
1.304 g/t Au over 27.44 m and 1.725 g/t Au over 30.49 m (12EV289)
Drilling was completed prior to year end, with results to be included in the 2012 mineral reserve and resource update. Relevant assay results from the recent drilling at El Victor North are presented in Table 4 at the end of this press release. Locations of the drill collars of the highlighted drill intercepts at El Victor North are presented in Figure 1.
East Estrella
Exploration drilling directly east of the Mulatos pit southeast wall continued through the quarter. Condemnation drilling completed to investigate a proposed waste dump site east of the Estrella Pit by previous operators encountered a number of near-surface gold intercepts along with localized high-grade silver mineralization. Drilling earlier in the year confirmed widespread gold-silver-copper mineralization in the area, and the program expanded significantly to develop measured and indicated resources. Mineralization in the northern part of the project area is gold-dominant, near-surface, and stratiform, and structurally controlled with higher contents of silver and copper to the south. An additional 3,386 m of drilling was completed in 26 RC holes during the quarter, for a total of 13,165 m in 93 RC and 920 m in seven core holes.
Recent highlighted intercepts from drilling conducted to date include:
1.798 g/t Au over 25.55 m (12SX064)
4.396 g/t Au over 51.65 m, including 9.983 g/t Au over 5.45 m and 7.371
g/t Au over 6.5 m (12SX081)
2.600 g/t Au over 24.60 m (12SX089)
Highlighted silver intercepts from recent drilling include:
386.2 g/t Ag over 13.10 m (12SX069)
1078.4 g/t Ag over 5.70 m (12SX070)
403.2 g/t Ag over 9.30 m (12SX077)
121.1 g/t Ag over 17.80m (12SX081)
Relevant assay results from the recent drilling at East Estrella are presented in Tables 5 and 6 at the end of this press release. Locations of the drill collars of the highlighted drill intercepts at East Estrella are presented in Figure 2.
San Carlos
Drilling resumed at San Carlos during the fourth quarter, targeted at deep high-grade gold mineralization extending to the east of the San Carlos resource and reserve. High-grade intercepts have been encountered up to 500 m from the existing pit boundary. An infill and step-out directional drilling program is currently in progress to define the mineralization extents and develop the resource. Drill progress has been relatively slow at San Carlos due to the directional drilling complexity and deep, deviating drill holes that have to be steered to the target. During the fourth quarter, nine directional holes were completed by RC pilot holes with core tails, for a total of 3,096 m of drilling. In 2012, a total of 9,386 m of drilling was completed in 25 RC holes, and 1,319 m in three core holes.
In 2011, the Company obtained positive results from metallurgical testing conducted on high-grade ore at San Carlos. The results indicated that the high-grade ore at San Carlos is amenable to gravity separation and capable of providing an additional source of feed for the gravity mill. Ultimate recovery rates (gravity separation followed by leaching the tailings with cyanide) were 78% and 70% for the two large samples processed. The Company has high-grade proven and probable mineral reserves at San Carlos of 649,000 tonnes grading 7.670 g/t Au for approximately 160,000 contained ounces. The Company continues to evaluate the potential to mine a portion of the San Carlos deposit through underground mining methods.
Highlighted intercepts from recently conducted drilling include:
7.729 g/t Au over 4.65 m (12SC177)
3.839 g/t Au over 17.55 m, including 10.517 g/t Au over 4.15 m (12SC178)
5.154 g/t Au over 17.3 m (12SC178B)
12.850 g/t Au over 6.09m, including 24.325 g/t Au over 3.04m (12SC183)
Relevant assay results from the recent drilling at San Carlos are presented in Table 7 at the end of this press release. Locations of the drill collars of the highlighted drill intercepts at San Carlos are presented in Figure 3.
El Realito
Drill hole data from the 2004 to 2006 El Realito drilling programs has been re-evaluated in light of current gold prices and developed into a new geologic model that will be subject to a preliminary resource estimation. Oxide gold mineralization with local high-grade intervals was delineated during the previous exploration programs, and mineralization remains open. A 60-hole infill and step-out drilling program is planned for the first half of 2013 to further develop the resource.
Turkey
Exploration expenditures in Turkey totalled $9.1 million in 2012. Up to eight drill rigs were active throughout the fourth quarter, drilling a total of 30,478 m in 165 holes in 2012. Drilling included 22 holes across the project, for engineering purposes.
Camyurt
Resource infill and expansion drilling continued through the fourth quarter and is ongoing, with 8,302 m completed in 47 core holes in 2012. The Company published an initial pit-constrained inferred mineral resource estimate of 24.6 million tonnes grading 0.810 g/t Au and 4.7 g/t Ag for 640,000 ounces of gold and 3.8 million ounces of silver at Camyurt, applying a 0.2 g/t Au cut-off. The Camyurt project is located approximately three km southeast of the Company's development-stage Agi Dagi project. Drilling at Camyurt has defined a mineralized zone that is continuous for at least 1,200 m along strike, with additional potential to extend mineralization to the northeast and at depth.
Gold mineralization is hosted within a tabular, steeply-dipping oxidized zone starting at surface and with a cross-strike width up to 150 m. The average drill spacing is approximately 55 m along strike, and 59 drill holes were used in the estimate. The new inferred mineral resource estimate for Camyurt represents a significant addition to the Company's mineral resource base in Turkey. In addition, the average grade of the mineral resource is substantially higher than at the Agi Dagi and Kirazli projects. The Company intends to continue expanding mineral resources at Camyurt in 2013.
Recent highlighted intercept from drilling conducted to date include:
1.718 g/t Au over 55.1 m (12CYD64)
2.708 g/t Au over 17.0 m (12CYD68)
1.243 g/t Au over 126.2 m (12CYD70)
1.035 g/t Au over 96.7 m (12CYD71)
2.900 g/t Au over 23.6 m (12CYD72)
Relevant assay results from the recent drilling at Camyurt are presented in Table 8 at the end of this press release. Locations of the drill collars of the highlighted drill intercepts at Camyurt are presented in Figure 4.
Agi Dagi
The Agi Dagi project is comprised of the two principle resource areas at Baba and Deli, connected by the Firetower zone of advanced argillic and silic alteration. The Baba-Firetower-Deli zone of mineralization extends at least 4.3 kilometers ("km") along a northeast-southwest trend. During 2012, 42 drill holes were completed at Baba and Firetower, for 10,990 m of drilling.
A portion of the Firetower mineral resource area was included in the Company's year-end 2011 mineral reserve and resource statement as inferred mineral resources. However, these were not incorporated into the June 2012 preliminary feasibility study as it included only measured and indicated resources. Upgrading these mineral resources to measured and indicated is expected to improve the economics of the Agi Dagi project.
Two parallel trends of advanced argillic and silicic alteration occur to the northwest of the Baba-Deli trend. The Ayi Tepe-Firetower North zone is approximately two km long, defined by relatively wide spaced drilling. Similar alteration occurs along the discontinuous Tavasan-Ihlamur zone, approximately 4.5 km long. Both zones have not been fully defined by drilling. The Ayi Tepe-Firetower North and Tavasan-Ihlamur zones occur approximately 300 m and one km northwest of the Baba-Deli trend, respectively. Fifteen exploration drill holes were completed in these areas in 2012, for 3,836 m of drilling.
Highlighted intercepts from drilling include:
2.180 g/t Au over 50.3 m, including 7.23 g/t Au over 7.1 m (11AD546)
1.372 g/t Au over 42.5 m (12AD609)
Relevant assay results from the recent drilling at Agi Dagi are presented in Table 9 at the end of this press release.
Kirazli
The 2012 drill program at Kirazli was completed in the previous quarter, with 19 infill and expansion holes drilled at the Kirazli main zone, and 14 completed at Rockpile.
Recent highlighted intercept from drilling include:
5.948 g/t Au over 10.3 m (12KD200)
1.620 g/t Au over 32.6 m (12KD205)
2.211 g/t Au over 22.6 m (12KD208)
Relevant assay results from the recent drilling at Kirazli are presented in Table 10 at the end of this press release.
Outlook
The Company anticipates producing between 180,000 and 200,000 ounces of gold in 2013 at a cash operating cost of $415 to $435 per ounce of gold sold, excluding a 5% royalty. If the 5% royalty is included, and assuming a $1,700 gold price, total cash costs are expected to be between $500 and $520 per ounce of gold sold.
The 2013 Mulatos capital and development budget is $40.7 million. Operating and expansion capital spending is forecasted to be approximately $21.4 million in 2013, consistent with 2012. Development spending in 2013 is budgeted to be $19.3 million and will be focused on underground development of the San Carlos and Escondida North areas, in order to access high-grade ore to provide additional gravity mill feed. In addition, the Company expects to commence construction of an access ramp from the Estrella portion of the Mulatos Pit to the El Victor and San Carlos deposit areas.
The Company's mineral reserve and resource update is expected to be released at the end of the first quarter of 2013. The current focus of exploration at Mulatos is on continuing to delineate high-grade mineral reserves to provide mill feed beyond the life of the Escondida high-grade deposit.
In Turkey, the Company published an NI 43-101 compliant preliminary feasibility study summary of the Agi Dagi and Kirazli projects in June 2012, which demonstrated robust economics and supported the Company's decision to proceed with permitting and development activities. Total development spending related to the Turkish projects in 2013 is expected to be approximately $69.3 million.
In the first quarter of 2013, the Company expects to receive a response from the Turkish government with respect to EIA approval for the Kirazli project. The final EIA for the Agi Dagi project will be submitted in the first quarter of 2013 with approval expected in the second quarter of the year. The Company is also committed to aggressively drilling the Camyurt project, which is the next step in fast-tracking the project toward production.
The Company continues to strengthen its financial position, generating over $131 million in free cash flow from the Mulatos Mine in 2012. The Company's development capital and exploration spending in 2013 is all expected to be financed from cash flow.
If the acquisition of Aurizon is successful, the combined Company will have geographic and operational diversity, with producing assets in Canada and Mexico and a strong growth development pipeline in Turkey. Furthermore, after payment of the CAD$305 million cash portion of the acquisition cost, it is expected that the combined Company would have in excess of $250 million in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, providing a strong financial platform for future organic growth or acquisitions.

Cautionary non-GAAP Measures and Additional GAAP Measures
Note that for purposes of this section, GAAP refers to IFRS. The Company believes that investors use certain non-GAAP and additional GAAP measures as indicators to assess gold mining companies. They are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared with GAAP.
Additional GAAP measures that are presented on the face of the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income include "Mine operating costs", "Earnings from mine operations" and "Earnings from operations". These measures are intended to provide an indication of the Company's mine and operating performance. "Cash flow from operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital" is a non-GAAP performance measure that could provide an indication of the Company's ability to generate cash flows from operations, and is calculated by adding back the change in non-cash working capital to "Cash provided by (used in) operating activities" as presented on the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows. "Mining cost per tonne of ore" and "Cost per tonne of ore" are non-GAAP performance measures that could provide an indication of the mining and processing efficiency and effectiveness of the mine. These measures are calculated by dividing the relevant mining and processing costs and total costs by the tonnes of ore processed in the period. "Cost per tonne of ore" is usually affected by operating efficiencies and waste-to-ore ratios in the period. "Cash operating costs per ounce" and "total cash costs per ounce" as used in this analysis are non-GAAP terms typically used by gold mining companies to assess the level of gross margin available to the Company by subtracting these costs from the unit price realized during the period. These non-GAAP terms are also used to assess the ability of a mining company to generate cash flow from operations. There may be some variation in the method of computation of "cash operating costs per ounce" as determined by the Company compared with other mining companies. In this context, "cash operating costs per ounce" reflects the cash operating costs allocated from in-process and dore inventory associated with ounces of gold sold in the period. "Cash operating costs per ounce" may vary from one period to another due to operating efficiencies, waste-to-ore ratios, grade of ore processed and gold recovery rates in the period. "Total cash costs per ounce" includes "cash operating costs per ounce" plus applicable royalties. Cash operating costs per ounce and total cash costs per ounce are exclusive of exploration costs. Non-GAAP and additional GAAP measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.

All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this release, including without limitation statements regarding forecast gold production, gold grades, recoveries, waste-to-ore ratios, total cash costs, potential mineralization and reserves, exploration results, and future plans and objectives of Alamos, are forward-looking statements that involve various risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to mining and processing of mined ore, achieving projected recovery rates, anticipated production rates and mine life, operating efficiencies, costs and expenditures, changes in mineral resources and conversion of mineral resources to proven and probable reserves, and other information that is based on forecasts of future operational or financial results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and assumptions of management.
Exploration results that include geophysics, sampling, and drill results on wide spacings may not be indicative of the occurrence of a mineral deposit. Such results do not provide assurance that further work will establish sufficient grade, continuity, metallurgical characteristics and economic potential to be classed as a category of mineral resource. A mineral resource that is classified as "inferred" or "indicated" has a great amount of uncertainty as to its existence and economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that any or part of an "indicated mineral resource" or "inferred mineral resource" will ever be upgraded to a higher category of resource. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into proven and probable reserves.
Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate", "plans", "estimates" or "intends", or stating that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved) are not statements of historical fact and may be "forward-looking statements." Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events or results to differ from those reflected in the forward-looking statements.
There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from Alamos' expectations include, among others, risks related to international operations, the actual results of current exploration activities, conclusions of economic evaluations and changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined as well as future prices of gold and silver, as well as those factors discussed in the section entitled "Risk Factors" in Alamos' Annual Information Form. Although Alamos has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
Note to U.S. Investors
Alamos prepares its disclosure in accordance with the requirements of securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of U.S. securities laws. Terms relating to mineral resources in this presentation are defined in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects under the guidelines set out in the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy, and Petroleum Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves. The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") permits mining companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only those mineral deposits that a company can economically and legally extract or produce. Alamos may use certain terms, such as "measured mineral resources", "indicated mineral resources", "inferred mineral resources" and "probable mineral reserves" that the SEC does not recognize (these terms may be used in this presentation and are included in the public filings of Alamos, which have been filed with the SEC and the securities commissions or similar authorities in Canada).

ALAMOS GOLD INC.
2012 FINANCIAL REPORT
December 31, 2012 and 2011
(Based on International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and stated in thousands of United States
dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
"The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting
Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and reflect
management’s best estimates and judgments based on information currently available. In the opinion of
management, the accounting practices utilized are appropriate in the circumstances and the consolidated
financial statements fairly reflect the financial position and results of operations of the Company within
reasonable limits of materiality.
Management has developed and maintains a system of internal controls to obtain reasonable assurance that
the Company’s assets are safeguarded, transactions are authorized, and financial information is reliable. All
internal control systems have inherent limitations, including the possibility of circumvention and overriding of
controls, and therefore, can provide only reasonable assurance as to financial statement reliability and the
safeguarding of assets.
The Board of Directors is responsible for ensuring management fulfills its responsibilities. The Audit
Committee meets with the Company’s management and external auditors to discuss the results of the audits
and to review the consolidated financial statements prior to the Audit Committee’s submission to the Board
of Directors for approval. The Audit Committee also reviews the quarterly financial statements and
recommends them for approval to the Board of Directors, reviews with management the Company’s systems
of internal control, and approves the scope of the external auditors’ audit and non‐audit work. The Audit
Committee is composed entirely of directors not involved in the daily operations of the Company who are
thus considered to be free from any relationship that could interfere with their exercise of independent
judgment as a Committee member.
The consolidated financial statements have been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, Chartered Accountants and
their report outlines the scope of their examination and gives their opinion on the consolidated financial
statements."

Ein Auszug aus dem Bericht:
Rohstofffonds in Schieflage?
"Bei der aktuell immer noch angespannten Lage an den Finanzmärkten, würde auch schon die Schieflage eines deutlich kleineren Fonds ausreichen, wieder Unruhe in den Markt zu bringen. Zumal die Fed heute nicht mehr, wie damals bei der Schieflage des LTCMs, die Zinsen senken könnte.
Die Reaktion auf dieses Gerücht war dann auch deutlich bei der Entwicklung des Goldpreises zu erkennen. Dieser sackte weiter nach unten durch und hat nun fast das untere Ende der großen Seitwärtsbewegung erreicht.
## Da der Abverkauf beim Gold bereits sehr dynamisch verläuft und fast schon eine Art Ausverkauf darstellt, könnte es tatsächlich sein, dass es an der unteren Begrenzung zu einem Stabilisierungsversuch kommt".##
Quelle und ganzer Bericht: [urlhttp://www.wallstreet-online.de/nachricht/5101255-vorsichtig][/url]
Hierzu ein Chart Gold Futures von mir. IMHO sehe ich persönlich auch die Möglichkeit, das die Korrektur des Goldpreise nun seinen Tiefpunkt erreicht haben könnte und ein den nächsten Wochen - Monaten wiedder Richtung Norden dreht.
Keine Kaufempfehlung (WPHG) oder Beratung, lediglich meine persönliche Meinung!!

Tote Hose hier? AGI wird Esperanza übernehmen und das ist sogar gut für den Kurs, trotz der damit verbundenen Kosten. AGI ist mMn eine der unauffällisten, effektivesten und damit interessantesten Juniors, bzw. Midcaps, wo auch immer man sie reinstecken möchte.

Hallo ,werde mal versuchen eine kleine Bestand bei 12$Dollar aufzubauen.
Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 45.440.705 von larsuwe am 13.09.13 04:27:20Ich bin mit 11,13 € rein am 12.09.13, heute steht der Kurs bei 12,62 €.
Von den 13,45 % Kursgewinn innerhalb einer Woche kann ich gut leben, d.h., ich werde kurzfristig wohl wieder aussteigen.

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 46.244.523 von combatiente am 16.01.14 22:54:27Ich habe das hier vom Chef gelesen:
"We had yet another strong year at Mulatos, achieving the mid-range of our production guidance, with costs expected to come in at the low end of our guidance. We produced 190,000 ounces of gold in 2014 and sold a record 198,200 ounces at a total cash cost per ounce of approximately $500. Despite realizing lower than expected grades from the Escondida high-grade deposit as production from that zone winds down, our open-pit heap leach production, the driver of our Mulatos mine, continued to perform extremely well. Two thousand thirteen was a challenging year with the sharp decrease in the gold price, yet with our low cost structure we continued to generate strong cash flow. With approximately $410-million in cash, no debt and a peer-leading, fully funded growth profile, we remain exceptionally well positioned in the industry," said John A. McCluskey, president and chief executive officer.
In the fourth quarter of 2013, the Mulatos mine produced 39,000 ounces of gold, bringing full-year production to 190,000 ounces, the midpoint of the company's guidance. Total cash costs for full year 2013 have not been finalized, but are expected to be at the low end of guidance at approximately $500 per ounce of gold sold.
Total crusher throughput in the fourth quarter of 2013 averaged near-record levels of 17,900 tonnes per day (tpd), above the annual budgeted rate of 17,500 tpd. For 2013, crusher throughput averaged 17,900 tpd, up 12 per cent from 16,000 tpd in 2012. During the fourth quarter of 2013, mill throughput exceeded budgeted levels at 550 tpd.
The grade of the crushed ore stacked on the leach pad in the fourth quarter of 2013 was 0.96 gram per tonne of gold (g/t Au). For the full year 2013, the grade of crushed ore stacked on the leach pad was 1.07 g/t Au, above the full-year budgeted grade of 0.98 g/t Au. The grade of the Escondida high-grade zone mined and milled in the fourth quarter of 2013 was 3.46 g/t Au, below the company's full-year budgeted average grade of 11 g/t Au. For the 2013 year, the grade mined and milled from the Escondida high-grade zone was approximately 6.84 g/t Au.
Wie auch immer, ich glaube der Ausblick ist das grössere Problem. Andererseits hat die Aktie auch Potenzial nach oben. Kosten sind immer noch günstigst. Die angesprochene "Transition" ist natürlich eine Spassbremse.

Alamos hat doch noch ein aussichtsreiches Projekt Portfolio.
Heute noch einmal wenig Minus mit Volumen. Ich denke, wenn dass der Selloff war und Gold jetzt dreht, hat man hier eine schöne Langfristchance.
Hier mal die neusten zahlen leider geht der Gewinn zurück aber bei dem Goldpreis kein Wunder aber ansonsten echt solide.

Hoffnung auf ein starkes zweites Halbjahr
Alamos Gold - Produktion und Gewinn brechen im ersten Quartal ein
Die kanadische Alamos Gold (WKN 257506) hat ein schwaches erstes Quartal 2014 hinter sich. Der Gewinn brach von 26 Mio. Dollar oder 21 Cent pro Aktie in den ersten drei Monaten des Vorjahres auf jetzt nur noch 2,7 Mio. Dollar oder 2 Cent pro Aktie ein. Das lag neben dem gesunkenen Goldpreis auch an einem Produktionsrückgang von 33% auf Grund eines niedrigeren Metallgehalts sowie eines gesunkenen Durchsatzes und einer geringeren Gewinnungsrate.
Alamos produzierte so von Januar bis Ende März nur 37.000 Unzen Gold nach 55.000 Unzen im gleichen Zeitraum des Vorjahres. Das allerdings hatte das Unternehmen bereits im Vorfeld erwartet. Die Cashkosten sowie die all-in sustaining costs (AISC) pro Unze lagen mit 617 bzw. 908 USD pro Unze hingegen unter der Prognose des Unternehmens wie John A. McCluskey, CEO von Alamos, erklärte. Er wies darauf hin, dass das Unternehmen im ersten Quartal 2014 einen operativen Cashflow von 15,9 Mio. Dollar erzielt habe.
Den Absatz des Quartals gab Alamos mit 32.161 Unzen Gold an, wobei ein durchschnittlicher Verkaufspreis von 1.291 USD pro Unze erzielt wurde, was zum einem Quartalsumsatz von 41,5 Mio. Dollar führte. Das Unternehmen legte zudem eine Halbjahresdividende von 10 Cent pro Stammaktie fest.
McCluskey erklärte darüber hinaus, dass die Entwicklung des Untertageabbaus auf San Carlos wie geplant verlaufe. Man rechne so bei Alamos mit einer besseren zweiten Jahreshälfte, da die Produktion hochgradigeren Erzes zunehmen dürfte, so der Alamos CEO. Alamos hält an seiner Produktionsprognose von 150.000 bis 170.000 Unzen Gold im laufenden Jahr fest. Der Großteil davon soll in der zweiten Jahreshälfte anfallen.

Bilanziell sieht es hier am besten aus. Cash reicht noch lange - daher bin ich auch mal mit 100 Stück eingestiegen. Ggf. kann ich ja noch nachlegen oder ansonsten mit 150 Trading-Gewinn aussteigen.
Divi gibt's auch noch gute 2% - also durchaus aufstockenswert.

Alamos Gold takes a step forward, with Turkish project
www.miningweekly.com/article/alamos-gold-takes-a-step-forwar…
" TORONTO (miningweekly.com) – TSX- and NYSE-listed gold producer Alamos Gold on Wednesday announced that it had received the final signatures approving the environmental-impact assessment (EIA) for its Agi Dagi gold project.
The Turkish Environment and Urbanisation Ministry responsible for reviewing the EIA, had signed and issued formal approval in the form of an EIA ‘positive decision certificate’ for Agi Dagi.
"This represents another step forward for our development projects in Turkey and reaffirms the government's commitment to the mining industry," president and CEO John McCluskey said.
Meanwhile, Alamos continued work on amending the EIA for the Kirazli project to include an assessment of the potential cumulative impacts of proposed projects in the region, while it waited for a positive resolution of the legal process.
Alamos had last August received an EIA ‘positive decision certificate’ for Kirazli, from the Turkish Environment and Urbanisation Ministry.
However, early this year, the Canakkale Administrative Court issued an injunction order to the Ministry regarding its approval of the EIA, on the basis that it failed to assess the “cumulative impacts” of the project in conjunction with other potential mining projects in the region.
Given that there had not previously been any requirement to include such an assessment in such an EIA report, the Ministry formally challenged the court's decision to temporarily revoke the EIA on this basis.
A ruling on the interim relief remedy requested by the company from the High Court was expected in the fourth quarter. The company expected to be in a position to submit the revised EIA by the end of September if it was unsuccessful in appealing the court's decision to the Turkish High Court.
Alamos expected to produce the first gold from Kirazli, the first of the company's Turkish projects, within 18 months of receiving the outstanding forestry and operating permits.
With about $390-million in cash, no debt and strong ongoing cash flow generation, Alamos expected to fund development of these projects internally.

Alamos Gold blames heavy rains for poor Q3 performance - MW, TORONTO - Oct 24, 2014

"TSX- and NYSE-listed Alamos Gold this week reported disappointing third-quarter results, citing heavy rains and lower recoveries as weighing on its flagship Mulatos operation’s performance, in Mexico.
The Toronto-based miner reported that despite stacking ore containing about 51 900 oz of gold o the leach pad in the quarter ended September 30, the total output of 28 000 oz was the result of a severe rainy season, culminating with record rainfall in September.
This resulted in dilution of the heap leach solutions and delayed the recovery of a significant portion of these ounces; however, the company said it expected to see the benefit of these stacked ounces in the fourth quarter.
For the quarter, Alamos reported a 35% year-on-year decline in ounces produced, and gold sales was down 38% at 30 000 oz, resulting in revenue of $38.52-million, down 40% from the same period a year earlier.
The company reported a net loss of $2.23-million, or $0.02 a share, compared with average analyst expectations of a profit of $0.01 a share.
Alamos reported 42% higher all-in costs of $1 148/oz, and cash operating costs were 66% higher than the $434 figure reported a year earlier.
However, CEO John McCluskey said the company still expected to hit the lower end of its production guidance at 150 000 oz.
Combined with the ramp-up of high-grade mill production from San Carlos, the company expects a significant increase in production in the fourth quarter,” he said.
Alamos reported cash in the bank of $375.2-million as at the end of the quarter and it had announced a semi-annual dividend of $0.10 per common share payable on October 31. Including this dividend, the Alamos had returned more than $102-million to shareholders in the form of dividends and share repurchases over the past four years.
Since the start of the year, Alamos’ NYSE-listed stock had lost 34.27% of its value, and on Friday closed down just over a per cent at $8.05 apiece. "

Turkish court issues EIA injunction against Alamos Gold’s Agi Dagi project, Alamos Gold on Thursday confirmed to Mining Weekly Online that an injunction was being placed on the previously approved environmental-impact assessment(EIA) for its Agi Dagi gold project, in Turkey
www.miningweekly.com/article/turkish-court-issues-eia-injunc…
"
Alamos Gold on Thursday confirmed to Mining Weekly Online that an injunction was being placed on the previously approved environmental-impact assessment (EIA) for its Agi Dagi gold project, in Turkey.
The development would impede project momentum until Alamos had assessed the “cumulative impacts” of the project in conjunction with other potential mining projects in the region.
Alamos spokesperson Scott Parsons confirmed that an injunction had been placed on the approval of the project’s EIA, relating to the lack of a cumulative impact assessment (CIA).
Toronto-based Alamos in August last year received the final environmental approval for the project from the Turkish Environment and Urbanisation Ministry responsible for reviewing the EIA, but similar to its Kirazli project, the Canakkale Administrative Court issued an injunction order to the Ministry regarding its approval of the Agi Dagi EIA.
Alamos had already started a cumulative impact assessment for Agi Dagi, which was nearly complete.
As had happened with the Kirazli EIA, the Agi Dagi EIA was also opposed by a local nongovernmental organisation and the same court filed an injunction against the Ministry.
On the basis that there had not previously been any requirement to include such an assessment in an EIA report, the Ministry formally challenged the court's decision to temporarily revoke the Kirazli EIA. This injunction was appealed in the Lower Court and was elevated to the High Court where it was currently being reviewed.
Alamos had completed a CIA for Kirazli, which was approved by the Ministry of the Environment, and this had been submitted to the High Court.
Financial services firm Desjardins Capital Markets analyst Michael Parkin in a note to clients said the development was "slightly negative" for the company.
He noted that the High Court could now either reject the injunction on Kirazli, which would put the EIA into good standing; accept the CIA that has been submitted and approved by the Ministry of the Environment and, thus, potentially allow the EIA to stand, or it might require Alamos to refile the EIA application, including the CIA, with the Ministry.
A decision on Kirazli from the High Court was expected soon, according to Alamos’ most recent guidance, which indicated that it expected a ruling in the next three to four months.
Alamos expected to produce the first gold from Kirazli, the first of the company's Turkish projects, within 18 months of receiving the outstanding forestry and operating permits. Initial production at Agi Dagi was expected about 18 months after Kirazli had started operations.
Parsons highlighted that Alamos had always planned on developing Kirazli first and, as such, did not expect the injunction to impact timelines for Agi Dagi.
Alamos acquired Agi Dagi along with Kirazli for about $90-million in 2010.
The miner expected to produce about 143 000 oz/y of gold over a seven-year mine life based on a 2012 prefeasibility study and saw significant synergies to boost economics through incorporating the nearby, higher-grade Camyurt deposit. "

Alamos Gold (AGI), AuRico Gold (AUQ) Enter $1.5B Merger
Alamos Gold Inc. (NYSE: AGI) and AuRico Gold Inc. (NYSE: AUQ) have entered into a definitive agreement to combine their respective companies by way of a plan of arrangement, creating a new, leading intermediate gold producer. The Merger combines two top-quality, highly-complementary asset portfolios, including two long-life, cash flow-generating gold mines: AuRico's Young-Davidson mine in Ontario, Canada and Alamos' Mulatos mine in Sonora, Mexico. The transaction is structured as a merger of equals with a transaction equity value of approximately US$1.5 billion.
Under the terms of the Merger, holders of Alamos shares will receive, for each share held, 1 MergeCo share and US$0.0001 in cash, and holders of AuRico shares will receive, for each share held, 0.5046 MergeCo shares. Upon completion of the Merger, former Alamos and AuRico shareholders will each own approximately 50% of MergeCo (named Alamos Gold Inc.).
In addition, a new company, to be named AuRico Metals Inc., will be created to hold AuRico's Kemess project, a 1.5% net smelter return royalty on the Young-Davidson mine, AuRico's Fosterville and Stawell royalties, and will be capitalized with US$20 million of cash. Upon completion of the Merger, MergeCo will own a 4.9% equity interest in SpinCo. The remaining shares of SpinCo will be distributed 50% each to former Alamos and AuRico shareholders.
The merger is subject to shareholder and other applicable regulatory approvals and satisfaction of other customary conditions. The merger is expected to close in the second quarter of 2015.
A joint conference call and webcast is scheduled for Monday, April 13, 2015 beginning at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time (details provided below).
Highlights of the Merger
Creation of a leading intermediate gold producer: Creates a larger, diversified portfolio of assets located in stable jurisdictions, underpinned by two top-tier producing mines, Young-Davidson and Mulatos, and a significant pipeline of high-quality development projects.
Peer-leading growth profile in safe jurisdictions: Expected to produce 375 - 425 koz of gold in 2015 in Mexico and Canada with the potential to grow organically to over 700 koz of gold annually. The development portfolio is anchored by quality, low-cost projects in Turkey as well as three projects in North America (Esperanza, Lynn Lake and Quartz Mountain).7
Strong financial position: Strong pro-forma cash position of US$427 million, net cash of US$94 million and growing cash flow generation to support further growth.
Enhanced capital markets profile: The combined market capitalization of US$1.5 billion, increased trading liquidity and expanded analyst coverage is expected to significantly enhance the combined company's capital markets profile.
Revaluation opportunity: With diversified production, superior growth profile, strong balance sheet, greater market profile and proven management and operating teams, the combined company is well positioned for a potential value re-rating.
Potential to unlock significant value through SpinCo: Shareholders of both Alamos and AuRico will also benefit from the exposure to the significant value potential of the Kemess project and stable, diversified royalty revenue via ownership in SpinCo.
John McCluskey, President and CEO of Alamos, stated: "We are very pleased to bring this transaction forward to the benefit of both sets of shareholders. Alamos has remained disciplined in its growth initiatives, building and preserving a robust balance sheet for the right opportunity. We believe the addition of the flagship, long-life Young-Davidson mine is just that opportunity.
The combination of diversified production from three mines and a pipeline of low-cost growth projects in safe jurisdictions equate to a leading gold intermediate and a significant re-rate opportunity for our collective shareholders."
Scott Perry, President and CEO of AuRico stated: "This merger with Alamos represents a logical business combination that will create a premier intermediate gold producer with a diversified asset base that includes three low-cost producing mines, a significant organic growth profile, a pipeline of high-quality development projects, all of which is underpinned by a solid balance sheet and led by an experienced and proven management team.
We are confident that our shareholders will benefit from the value creation opportunities that will be realized through an expanded and more diversified asset base and enhanced cash flow generating capabilities. Shareholders will also benefit from the creation of SpinCo as they retain ongoing exposure to significant unlocked value in the highly prospective Kemess project, and stable, diversified sources of royalty revenue."
Benefits to All Shareholders
Diversified production from three North American mines including the long-life, flagship Young-Davidson and Mulatos mines.
Extensive growth portfolio of quality assets in safe jurisdictions.
Among the strongest balance sheets within its peer group with positive net cash, as well as significant and growing cash flow generation with which to fund growth.

Den Alamos-Managern kann man zu diesem Deal nur gratulieren. Und anders herum zeigt es sich hier . . .
wie das Management von Aurico übers gehauen worden ist.Wenn ich diesen Artikel lese muß ich dem alten Haudegen >Ken Stowe<, füherer Vortänzer von Northgate, gratulieren, das es ihm gelungen ist sein Prunkstück, die Mine Young Davidson wieder unter seine Fittiche zu bekommen.
Hier sieht man wo das Potential ist, nicht bei den Jungen Spunden sondern bei den alten Hadegen.

AuRico Gold And Alamos Gold: Both Getting A Good Deal
Must Read | May. 4, 2015 7:30 AM ET | 2 comments | About: AuRico Gold (AUQ), AGI Subscribers to SA PRO had an early look at this article. Learn more about PRO »

Summary
AuRico and Alamos recently announced the companies were going to combine in a merger of equals.
There is a substantial difference in valuation for the two companies flagship assets, as Young-Davidson is by far the better mine.
The rest of the assets that each company will contribute is about even in terms of valuation.
Some are skeptical but this merger makes a lot of sense, I'm even more bullish on the combined company.
On April 13, 2015, AuRico Gold (NYSE:AUQ) and Alamos Gold (NYSE:AGI) announced the two companies were going to combine in a merger of equals, creating a new $1.5 billion gold producer. Alamos and AuRico shareholders will each own approximately 50% of the new company, which will retain the Alamos Gold name.
We have some grumblings out of Alamos' shareholders, as not everybody likes the deal. A few analysts are skeptical as well. TD Securities analyst Steven Green said:
The transaction doesn't make sense for Alamos shareholders.
Since Alamos has $358 million in cash and no debt, he noted the deal "effectively rescues" AuRico from its balance sheet issues and provides Alamos no premium in exchange.
Green pointed to the transaction's enterprise value of $392 million for Alamos, versus AuRico's EV of slightly more than $1 billion. As a result, he believes the merger undervalues Alamos and will be significantly dilutive to his net asset value estimate.
I would strongly disagree with this assessment, AuRico is bringing much more to the table, and Alamos is getting a great deal as well.
Comparing The Flagship Assets
AuRico owns the Young-Davidson mine, which is located in Canada. It's AuRico's best asset by far and in fact will be the flagship mine of the newly combined company. With 3.8 million ounces of gold in underground reserves, Young-Davidson will be in production for 20+ years. It's still in the ramp up phase and won't reach steady state production until 2016. Once it does, it will be producing 225,000 ounces of gold per year and will have a fairly low $800-$881 AISC (depending on USD/CAD exchange rates).
AuRico also has a significant amount of Canadian tax loss pools. In the current gold environment, Young-Davidson won't pay taxes until 2023 if you take into account these carry-forward tax loss pools and the payback for construction. According to AuRico's 2014 Annual Report, those carry-forward losses were $109 million as of December 31, 2014. The company also has some tax loss carry-forwards in Mexico as well.

Grüße !
Hab heute von meinem Broker ne Info bekommen , das es eine Fusion gibt. Alamos Gold wird AuRico Metals.
Nun soweit so gut .... aber ist das ne "Endeignung" oder was ? Also zu meinem Beispiel :
Ich habe 200 Alamos Shares mit einem Wert von aktuell ca. 1000 Euro. Schaut einfach auf den letzen Kurs in Frankfurt oder wo immer ihr wollt.
Nun wurden mir, bzw. sollen laut meinem Broker, 87,940 Shares von der neuen AuRico Metals eingebucht werden.
Schaue ich auf den aktuellen Kurs dieses Titles sehe ich 0,365 Euro / Share.
87,940 x 0,365 = 32,0981 Euro.
Wurden mit jetzt ca. 968 Euro einfach so "genommen". ? Verstehe ich nicht was hier los ist !
Kann einer helfen ?

Der Deal läuft wie folgt:
Du als Inhaber von 200 bisherigen ALAMOS- Aktien erhälts aus diesem zusammenschluß folgendes:
1. du bleibst Besitzer von 200 ALAMOS GOLD-Aktien (NEW)-
Der Kurs ist z. Zt bei ca. 4,40 €
2. Du erhälst als Besitzer dieser alten 200 ALAMOS-Aktien einen Anteil von 87,940 Shares von dem neuen Unternehmen AURICO Metals INC.Der Preis ist der von dir angegebene Kurs von 0,365 € = Summe 32,098 €
Beide Kurse sind z. Zt sehr tief gefallen, warum, das kann ich dir leider auch nicht sagen.
Les dich bitte durch beide Threads durch, dann wirst du wissen, das
1) Alamos Gold (New) in den nächsten Jahren bis zu 700k Goldunzen fördern will.
Ob dann dieser derzeitige Kursverfall bei der neuen ALAMOS GOLD gerecht-fertigt ist muss du halt selbst entscheiden.
2) Aurico Metals verfügt über das Asset der beiden Kemess-North und der Kemess-East Mine in British Colombia mit einem Unzengehalt von ca. 10 Millionen Gold. Allerdings liegen diese noch im Boden und müssen erst gefördert werden.
Außerdem erhält Aurico Metals Inc eine Royalty Vergütung von den Minen Young Davidson (1 1/2 %)und den beiden australischen Minen Fosterville (2 %) und Stawell (1 %).
Wenn du dies dann alles zusammen stellst wirst du feststellen, das dein Verlust nicht ganz so groß ist.

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 50.165.550 von boersentrader02 am 11.07.15 16:03:07Ich schicke vorweg: ich hatte beide schon vorher.
mir wurden erst die Alamos 257506 ausgebucht und A14WBB eingebucht 1:1
dann kam die Entflechtung für Alamos 1:0,4397 wurden Auricos neue WKN hinzugefügt.
dann (Fusion) wurden die Auricos ausgebucht und die Alamos eingebucht. Verhältnis 1:0,50xxx
dann wurden 1:2219 die A1JBWL Auricos gegen A14WBC hinzugefügt.
Vier Vorgägne, die ich gerade noch auf die Reihe bekomme. Jetzt finde ich in meiner Postbox 4x denselben Vorgang mit "Storno"!!!!
Nun habe ich 257506 Alamos im Depot. die neue WKN sehe ich nicht. Dazu habe ich noch A1JBWL Auricos 3,65808 CAD ist da der Kurs.
HIIIIILFE!!! Ich blicke da gar nicht mehr durch, kann jetzt nicht mal nachvollziehen was ich habe, hatte und ob er Wert gestiegen oder gesunken ist.
Gerne auch per BM! Danke.

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 50.167.935 von prallhans am 12.07.15 10:50:16So wie du es hier niedergeschrieben hast ist es auch bei mir im Depot aus- und eingebucht worden.
Allerdings habe ich noch keine Änderungen in Bezug auf die WPK-Nr. festgestellt. Meine eingebuchten Aktien besitzen halt immer noch die WPK-Nr. die du als erstes genannt hast.
Sollten die von dir angegebenen neuen Nr. richtig sein wird das bestimmt Morgen auch in meinem Depit passieren.
Leider sind die in der vergangenen Woche eingefahrenen Verluste schon heftig gewesen. Ich gehe aber davon aus, das sich das in einigen Wochen wieder an die alten Kurse angeglichen hat, denn das neue Unternehmen will ja in diesem Jahr ca. 360 - 380k Unzen Gold produzieren.
Im Jahr 2017 sind sogar bis zu 700k Unzen geplant. Also heißt es abwrten und bei noch weiterem Kzrsverlust die eine oder andere Aktie einfach dazu zu kaufen.

Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 50.170.842 von boersentrader02 am 12.07.15 23:05:24dann bin ich ja beruhigt. Bei mir ist Aurico auch grau dargestellt mit London Kurs. Wird sich schon regeln. Das Storno hat mich verwirrt.
Ich bin überzeugt, dass das ein guter Deal in diesen Zeiten. Und Divi immerhin auch ein bisserl.

Warten wir es ab.
