Bin seit 2004 dabei - eher als Leser, nach 2008 in 10000 Schritten nachgekauft - es wird werden, wobei ich zugebe - dass ich zwischenzeitlich mit meiner Geduld am Ende war. Herzlichen Dank für deine vielen Ausführungen - über die Jahre.

[supideti]

Für die folgenden Jahren stellen sich wohl folgende Fragen:

- Ausbau der Unzenförderung ohne grosse Verwässerung und Fixkostenerhöhung
- Exploration weiterer Gebiete mit hoffentlich höheren Graden

evt. von einem höheren Goldpreis begleitet

Anaconda signs def deal to acquire Orex Exploration

2017-03-03 07:24 ET - News Release

Also News Release (C-OX) Orex Exploration Inc

Mr. Dustin Angelo of Anaconda reports

ANACONDA MINING AND OREX EXPLORATION EXECUTE ARRANGEMENT AGREEMENT

Anaconda Mining Inc. and Orex Exploration Inc. have entered into a definitive arrangement agreement, pursuant to which Anaconda has agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Orex, by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement. Pursuant to the agreement, the consideration to be received by the shareholders of Orex consists of 0.85 of a common share of Anaconda for each common share of Orex held. Outstanding options of Orex that have not been duly exercised prior to the effective date on the arrangement, will be exchanged for a fully vested option of Anaconda to purchase from Anaconda the number of Anaconda shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to: (i) the exchange ratio, being 0.85, multiplied by (ii) the number of Orex shares subject to such Orex option immediately prior to the effective date of the arrangement. Outstanding warrants of Orex that do not already contain adjustment provisions triggered by the arrangement, will be amended to include such an adjustment feature, such that upon completion of the arrangement, the holders of Orex warrants will be entitled to receive, upon exercise of their securities, the number of Anaconda shares which the holders would have been entitled to receive as a result of the arrangement, if immediately prior to the effective date the holders had exercised their securities.

Following completion of the arrangement, Orex will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Anaconda. Existing Anaconda and Orex shareholders will own approximately 54.9 per cent and 45.1 per cent of the combined company, respectively, on a non-diluted basis.

Arrangement benefits

The arrangement is intended to provide significant benefits for securityholders of both companies, including:

Acceleration of development of Orex's Goldboro project by combining Orex's mineral resources with Anaconda's proven operating infrastructure at the Point Rousse project and experienced management team;
Potential for substantial capital cost reductions at the Goldboro project through leveraging Anaconda's existing port, mill and tailings facilities;
Potential for gold-producing operations in two mining-friendly jurisdictions in Atlantic Canada -- Newfoundland and Labrador and Nova Scotia;
Establishment of a strong position from which to participate in any future consolidation in the mining industry in Atlantic Canada;
Greater market presence, enhanced liquidity and a broader capital markets profile.

Anaconda's Point Rousse project has been producing gold for nearly seven years and, in that time, Anaconda has incrementally improved its operating infrastructure, which includes a 1,300-tonne-per-day mill, tailings capacity for approximately 15 years (based on the current mill throughput rate) and a port facility. Both the Point Rousse project and Goldboro project are located on tidewater. With favourable logistics and existing infrastructure in place, Anaconda expects it will be able to accelerate the development of the Goldboro project at a lower capital cost than if it were a stand-alone project.

Combining the two companies will create a single enterprise with expanded mineral resources, most of which are high grade. On a pro forma basis, the mineral resource portfolio will include 457,400 measured and indicated ounces of gold and 372,900 inferred ounces at the Goldboro project in Nova Scotia (see Orex's news release dated March 1, 2017); 107,230 indicated ounces of gold and 37,030 inferred ounces at the Point Rousse project; and 83,000 indicated ounces of gold and 31,000 inferred ounces at the Viking project in Newfoundland and Labrador.

Dustin Angelo, president and chief executive officer of Anaconda, said: "We believe that the arrangement with Orex is a great opportunity for our shareholders and we are acquiring mineral resources at an attractive price. Over the last nearly seven years, we have built a scalable platform for growth with an ever-improving mill facility, plenty of tailings capacity and a new port facility. We have a track record of success, developing and operating gold mining projects. The Goldboro project provides the mineral resources to extend the longevity of Anaconda and potentially increase annual production to much higher levels. We are excited to leverage our people, talents and Point Rousse infrastructure to meet our goal of bringing the Goldboro project into production as soon as reasonably possible."

"The Orex board of directors is committed to building a profitable junior gold production company and has assessed a variety of financial and strategic options. The board believes the proposed business combination with Anaconda represents the best option. We have undertaken a thorough due-diligence review of Anaconda's Pine Cove mine and mill facilities and exploration properties in Newfoundland and, equally importantly, we have had the opportunity to engage directly with Anaconda's management and operations team. We believe the combined business will (i) be capital efficient; (ii) reduce the time required to bring the Goldboro project into production; (iii) be supported by an experienced operations team and (iv) redefine and revalue our business in the capital markets. The Orex board of directors unanimously recommends the proposed business combination and believes that this bold strategic undertaking is in the best long-term interest of our valued shareholders," said Jonathan Fitzgerald, chief executive officer of Orex.

Board recommendations

The Anaconda and Orex board of directors have determined that the arrangement is in the best interest of their respective shareholders and securityholders, as applicable, taking into account advice from their financial advisers, and have unanimously approved the arrangement. The Anaconda and Orex board of directors recommend that their respective shareholders and securityholders, as applicable, vote in favour of the transactions.

Red Cloud Klondike Strike Inc. has provided a verbal fairness opinion to the board of directors of Anaconda to the effect that, as of the date of the fairness opinion and based upon and subject to the limitations and qualifications therein, the consideration payable by Anaconda pursuant to the arrangement for the Orex shares is fair, from a financial point of view, to Anaconda.

M Partners Inc. has provided a verbal fairness opinion to the special committee of the board of directors and to the board of directors of Orex to the effect that, as of the date of the fairness opinion and based upon and subject to the limitation and qualifications therein, the arrangement is fair, from a financial point of view, to Orex.

Transaction summary

Immediately prior to the arrangement, Orex will be continued from the province of Quebec into the province of Ontario. The arrangement will be carried out by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement pursuant to the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) and must be approved by the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the votes cast by Orex shareholders and certain warrantholders at a special meeting that is expected to be held in May, 2017. Pursuant to the agreement, the consideration to be received by the shareholders of Orex consists of 0.85 of an Anaconda share for each Orex share held. Following completion of the arrangement, Orex will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Anaconda.

Outstanding Orex options that have not been duly exercised prior to the effective date on the arrangement will be exchanged for a fully vested option of Anaconda to purchase from Anaconda the number of Anaconda shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to: (i) the exchange ratio, being 0.85, multiplied by (ii) the number of Orex shares subject to such Orex option immediately prior to the effective date of the arrangement. Outstanding Orex warrants that do not already contain adjustment provisions triggered by the arrangement, will be amended to include such an adjustment feature, such that upon completion of the arrangement, the holders of Orex warrants will be entitled to receive, upon exercise of their securities, the number of Anaconda shares which the holders would have been entitled to receive as a result of the arrangement, if immediately prior to the effective date the holders had exercised their securities.

In addition to applicable securityholder and court approvals, the arrangement is subject to applicable regulatory approvals including Toronto Stock Exchange and TSX Venture Exchange approval and the satisfaction of certain other customary closing conditions customary in transactions of this nature.

The arrangement is expected to be completed in May, 2017. Following completion of the arrangement, the number of directors on Anaconda's board will be seven and comprise five current members of the Anaconda board of directors and two directors who are current members of the Orex board of directors. In addition, Anaconda may consolidate the Anaconda shares on terms to be determined by Anaconda. The arrangement is not conditional on the consolidation.

For Orex, the arrangement and continuance will require approval by two-thirds of the votes cast by its shareholders and, in respect of the arrangement, certain warrantholders at a special securityholders meeting. The issuance of the Anaconda shares will require the approval of a simple majority of the shareholders of Anaconda at a special shareholders meeting. The consolidation will require approval by two-thirds of the votes cast by Anaconda shareholders.

Anaconda sells 3,597 oz Au in fiscal Q3

2017-03-16 07:52 ET - News Release

Mr. Dustin Angelo reports

ANACONDA MINING SELLS NEARLY 3,600 OUNCES OF GOLD AND GENERATES OVER $5.6M IN GOLD SALES REVENUE IN Q3 FY2017

Anaconda Mining Inc. has released certain financial and operating results from the three- and nine-month periods ended Feb. 28, 2017. During the third quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company sold 3,597 ounces of gold and generated $5,643,410 in gold sales revenue at an average sales price of $1,569 per ounce. Anaconda also earned approximately $430,000 in revenue from the sale of its Pine Cove Pit waste rock for the aggregates project announced in October 2016. The Company expects to file its full financial statements by April 14, 2017. All dollar amounts are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.

President and CEO, Dustin Angelo, stated, "The Point Rousse Project had another solid operating performance in the third quarter when we are typically challenged by inclement weather. Just as we did in the second quarter, we processed approximately 108,000 dry tonnes of ore. Over the last six months, Anaconda has sold nearly 8,000 ounces of gold as grade has increased approximately 14% since the first quarter. On the mining side, the Pine Cove pit strip ratio was reduced to 3.2 : 1 in the third quarter, which is a significant improvement over Q1 and Q2. For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, we expect the strip ratio to remain around 3 : 1 and grade to be in the 1.30 to 1.40 grams per tonne range. Consequently, we anticipate a strong finish to the fiscal year, particularly with the additional revenue from our aggregates venture."

FY Q3 2017 Operations Overview:

The Pine Cove Mill operated for 85 days during the third quarter of fiscal 2017 at an availability rate of 95%. The mill achieved an average run rate of 1,268 tonnes per operating day compared to 1,038 tonnes per operating day in the third quarter of fiscal 2016, a 22% increase. The Pine Cove Mill processed 107,762 dry tonnes of ore during the quarter compared to 91,370 dry tonnes of ore in the similar period of fiscal 2016. Overall mill recovery was 85% compared to 81% in third quarter fiscal 2016. Average feed grade during the quarter was 1.28 grams per tonne. Grade of ore to be processed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 is expected to increase by approximately 10% compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2017.

The mining operation at the Point Rousse Project operated for 50 days in the Pine Cove Pit and one day at Stog'er Tight during the third quarter of fiscal 2017. Total production was 102,531 tonnes of ore and 325,076 tonnes of waste for a strip ratio of 3.2 : 1 waste to ore. Anaconda was able to scale back total tonnes mined by 35% compared to the same period in fiscal 2016 and reduce operating days because of the low strip ratio and the fact that it drew ore feed from large stockpiles that accumulated during the first and second quarters of the fiscal year. Even with the reduction in mining activities, ore production increased from 78,196 tonnes in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 to 102,531 tonnes in the third quarter of fiscal 2017, a 31% increase. The reduced strip ratio is expected to continue throughout the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017.

In addition, Anaconda earned approximately $430,000 of revenue from 12 shipments of waste rock totaling 718,500 tonnes.

The following table summarizes the key operating statistics for the three and nine months ended February 28, 2017 and February 29, 2016:

ABOUT ANACONDA

Anaconda is a growth-oriented, gold mining and exploration company with a producing project called the Point Rousse Project and three exploration/development projects called the Viking and Great Northern Projects and the Tilt Cove Property in Newfoundland.

The Point Rousse Project is approximately 6,300 hectares of property on the Ming's Bight Peninsula located in the Baie Verte Mining District in Newfoundland, Canada. Since 2012, Anaconda has increased its property control by ten-fold on the peninsula and gold production to nearly 16,000 ounces per year. In an effort to expand production, it is currently exploring three primary, prospective gold trends, which have approximately 20 km of cumulative strike length and include five deposits and numerous prospects and showings, all within 8 km of the Pine Cove Mill. A second project called the Tilt Cove Property, consisting of 350 hectares, is located approximately 60 kilometres by road from the Pine Cove Mill but is also within the Baie Verte Mining District and underlain by similar geology to the Point Rousse Project.

Anaconda also controls the Viking and Great Northern Projects, which have approximately 6,225 and 6,375 hectares of property, respectively, in White Bay, Newfoundland, approximately 100 kilometres by water (180 kilometres via road) from the Pine Cove Mill. The Viking Project contains the Thor Deposit and other gold prospects and showings and the Great Northern Project includes numerous prospects and showings within a similar geological setting as the Viking Project. Anaconda's plan is to discover and develop more resources within these project areas and substantially increase annual production at the Pine Cove Mill from its current rate of nearly 16,000 ounces.

As the only pure play gold producer in Atlantic Canada, Anaconda Mining is turning the rock we live on into a growing and profitable resource. With a young and motivated workforce, innovative technology and the support of local suppliers, Anaconda is investing in the people of Newfoundland & Labrador and giving back to the communities in which we operate - building a better future for all our stakeholders, from the ground up.
