2010-11-29 11:00 ET - News Release
Mr. Craig Nelsen reports
AVANTI RECEIVES SECTION 11 ORDER FROM THE BRITISH COLUMBIA ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT OFFICE
The British Columbia (BC) Environmental Assessment Office has issued a Section 11 order, under the B.C. Environmental Assessment Act, to Avanti Kitsault Mine Ltd., the wholly owned subsidiary of Avanti Mining Inc., for the Kitsault mine project. The Section 11 order defines the scope of the project that is required to be assessed in the environmental assessment (EA) application and includes potential effects to be considered in the EA application.
In addition, the Section 11 order sets out the consultation requirements and the native communities to be consulted for the project. With the Section 11 order, Avanti can move to finalize the application information requirements following a 30-day public comment period tentatively set to begin early in 2011. See Avanti news release in Stockwatch dated Nov. 10, 2010, for more information on the application information requirements.
Craig J.

Growth in the Molybdenum Market
Wed, Oct 20, 2010 Feature Articles, Moly Articles
By Michael Montgomery—Exclusive to Moly Investing News
Share Molybdenum prices have fallen slightly since the $18 highs of April down to approximately $15 per pound; however, demand for the metal remains strong. The future price for the metal will be affected by the mining quota in China for 2011. The Asian nation mines about 35 percent of the metal, and consumes a large portion of moly in the production of steel alloys. In the second quarter of 2010, China became a net exporter of the metal after being a net importer for 2009. The robust buying of moly on China’s part help the metal rebound after the $8 lows of 2008.
“Between 2009 and 2012, consumption of molybdenum, an ingredient in making steel, is set to grow by 9.2 percent… Re-stocking of steel could lead to mine re-starts, with Chinese production rising over 11 percent this year,” stated Catherine Virga, director of research at CPM Group, at a London Metal Exchange conference.
The level of growth in the steel market is in line with the projections for the growth of Chinese GDP as a whole. This may be due to large scale construction projects and the heavy use of steel in the rapid urbanization of the Chinese society as a whole.
The amount of investment in overseas moly mining operations on the part of Chinese investment firms foreshadows the bullish nature of the Chinese for future steel demand, and consequently demand for moly. After the stockpiling of moly in 2009, Chinese firms have backed off in 2010, slowly working down the stockpiles. Analysts see the demand for moly starting to grow in the second quarter of 2011.
Molybdenum, unlike some other base metals trades on supply and demand fundamentals, as investors have yet to be drawn to it as a speculation play. However, with the addition of moly to the LME in 2010, investors are making up a smaller portion of the market, adding a new dimension to the market.
“The contract is still gaining traction and at this point of very low levels of liquidity I do think we’ll have investors still be a bit stand offish from the LME contract in the near term. Over time the molybdenum contract is one that could potentially be more liquid than the tin market and opening it up to much greater levels of investment demand,” stated Catherine Virga, in an interview with Geoff Candy, of MineWeb.
While the LME contracts may take time to significantly affect the moly market as a whole, in the long run it remains a positive addition to the demand for the metal, without the concerns of rampant speculation that cloud other metal markets.
Moly Company News
Ivanhoe Australia (ASX:IVA) is looking for a listing on the Toronto Stock Exchange in an attempt to broaden its investment universe. The Australian firm’s parent company Ivanhoe Mines Ltd. (TSE:IVN)(NYSE:IVN) is already listed on the Toronto exchange.
“For molybdenum producers we just don’t have many comparables in Australia and the big institutions holding our shares have said we should get an improved valuation in North America because there’s a more active capital market,” stated Ivanhoe Austraila’s Chief, Peter Reeve.
The company hopes that the gained exposure in the North American market will help boost capital and accelerate the mining operation in Australia. The company plans to keep its headquarters in Australia as well as their list on the Australian exchange.
Avanti Mining Inc. (CVE:AVT) which is developing it Kitsault mine in British Columbia has recently signed an off-take agreement. The company “entered into an off-take agreement with an Asian steel producer for the sale of three million pounds of moly annually for four years if Kitsault is re-opened,” reported J. McKay for Business in Vancouver.
The Kisault mine is expected to cost $600 million to build, and the company has not secured any of it until this recent announcement. The name of the partner has yet to be announced until the letter of intent is signed. The final feasibility study is to be released Jan. 31, 2011.

Sumitomo buying stake in Molycorp
Reuters
9:57 AM, E.T. | December 10, 2010
Energy & Resources AA Follow this Japanese trading house Sumitomo Corp. agreed to invest $130 million US in U.S. rare-earth producer Molycorp Inc. (MCP-N 34.19 2.91 9.3%) in exchange for a guaranteed seven-year supply of the minerals, which are used in products ranging from wind turbines to MP3 players.
Molycorp said Sumitomo agreed to buy $100 million of its common stock and provide $30 million in debt financing, to help fund its redevelopment of its Mountain Pass, California, mine and processing facility.
Molycorp has a $2.55 billion market capitalization.
Molycorp, which went public in July at $14 per share, has seen its shares more than double in value since China slashed its export quotas on rare-earth elements.
"This financing will help to ensure that Molycorp will deploy its entire mine-to-magnets manufacturing supply chain on time and on budget," said Mark Smith, Molycorp Chief Executive Officer. The company expects to spend about $500 million updating its mine, which was closed in 2002, at a time when rare earth prices were falling.
Japanese companies have been moving in recent months to secure reliable supplies of rare earths. Last month, Sojitz Corp. reached a procurement deal with Australian miner Lynas Corp.

Avanti's Kitsault at 298.8 mt of 0.07% Mo M+I
2010-12-16 19:44 ET - News Release
Mr. Craig Nelsen reports
AVANTI MINING RECEIVES POSITIVE FEASIBILITY STUDY CONFIRMING ROBUST ECONOMICS FOR RESTART OF KITSAULT MOLYBDENUM MINE
Avanti Mining Inc. has released the results of the NI 43-101 feasibility study prepared by AMEC on its 100-per-cent-owned Kitsault molybdenum property in northwest British Columbia, Canada. The complete report will be filed on SEDAR and posted on Avanti's website within 45 days of the issue of this press release. All figures are in U.S. dollars and were derived assuming 100-per-cent equity financing.
Highlights
An increased resource estimate contains measured and indicated mineral resources totalling 298.8 million tonnes grading 0.072 per cent molybdenum and 4.20 grams per tonne silver containing 472.5 million pounds of Mo and 40.3 million ounces of Ag. This represents a 9.7-per-cent increase of contained molybdenum and an 18-per-cent increase of contained silver over the company's prior estimate for measured plus indicated mineral resources. In addition, the inferred category totals 157.1 million tonnes grading 0.050 per cent Mo and 3.65 g/t Ag containing 172.2 million pounds of molybdenum and 18.4 million ounces of silver, an increase of 330 per cent of contained molybdenum and 360 per cent of contained silver over the company's previous resource estimate for inferred mineral resources.
The mine plan calls for a total of 232.5 million tonnes of proven and probable reserves grading 0.081 per cent molybdenum to be mined over a 16-year mine life, producing 373.9 million pounds of molybdenum. The first five years of production averages 0.101 per cent Mo.
A long-term exchange rate of 0.92 has been used to convert Canadian dollars to U.S. dollars.
Initial capital costs are estimated at $770-million (plus/minus-15-per-cent accuracy estimated in Canadian dollars at $837-million).
Cash operating costs (mine gate) are estimated to be $4.76 per pound of molybdenum.
The average annual price of molybdenum for the base case scenario over the mine life as forecast by the CPM Group ranges from $13.75 per pound to $18.25 per pound based upon its June, 2010, molybdenum market outlook. The average over the Kitsault mine life is $16.76 per pound of molybdenum. Forecasts were also prepared for a low- and a high-price scenario.
The base case after-tax net present value (8 per cent) is $798-million, with an internal rate of return of 26.8 per cent.
Projected undiscounted net cash flow (after tax) is $2.0-billion.
Annual metal production for the mine life averages 23.4 million pounds of molybdenum with the first five years averaging 29.6 million pounds per year.
There is a life-of-mine roasting agreement in place with Molymet that assures roasting capacity for the project.
The mine has certain infrastructure in place with road and ocean freight access to the mine site and will be serviced by the existing B.C. Hydro transmission grid.
The reopening of the mine is projected to create over 350 high-paying local jobs during its 16-year life and, at the peak of construction, over 650 jobs. The construction period is estimated at 25 months.
The project is progressing through an environmental assessment process under the B.C. and federal legislation, as well as the Nisga'a final agreement, and the company expects to submit its application in April, 2011.
"We are delighted with the plan developed in this feasibility study by AMEC and other contributors," stated Craig J. Nelsen, Avanti's president and chief executive officer. "We are pleased with the project's robust economics and plan to utilize this study as the basis for negotiating strategic partnerships to assist with the financing plan for Kitsault. Our schedule anticipates receipt of permits toward the end of 2011 and construction to follow in early 2012 with initial production in 2014."
Project description
The Kitsault property is located about 140 kilometres north of Prince Rupert, B.C., and south of the head of Alice Arm, an inlet of the Pacific Ocean. The property includes three known molybdenum deposits: Kitsault, Bell Moly and Roundy Creek. The Kitsault mine was a producer of molybdenum between 1967 and 1972 and from 1981 to 1982 with total production on the property during both periods being approximately 31 million pounds of molybdenum.
Kitsault has road access to the mine site, which is approximately 12 kilometres from ocean transport routes and which is serviced by the B.C. Hydro transmission grid. The feasibility study estimates that the Kitsault mine would operate at an annual resource throughput rate of 14.6 million tonnes, or 40,000 tonnes per day, with a strip ratio of 0.77 to 1 during a mine life of 16 years. The ore mined will be crushed in a gyratory primary crusher then grounded using a SAG-ball mill configuration. Conventional flotation and five stages of cleaning will produce molybdenum concentrate that will be dried and packaged into bags for shipment. The life-of-mine molybdenum production is estimated at 373.9 million pounds of molybdenum contained in 326,150 tonnes of molybdenum concentrate produced from the processing of 233.7 million tonnes of reserves plus planned dilution grading 0.081 per cent Mo. Total molybdenum recovery varies depending on mill head grade but is estimated to average 89.9 per cent.
Mineral resource/reserves statement
The mineral resources are reported in accordance with Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum definition standards for mineral resources mineral reserves and its guidelines and are compliant with National Instrument 43-101. The resource estimate was prepared under the supervision of Greg Kulla, PGeo, an independent qualified person, as this term is defined in NI 43-101. The mineral resource statement for the Kitsault molybdenum project is presented in the attached Kitsault mineral resources table.

Mineral resources are inclusive of mineral reserves.
Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have
demonstrated economic viability.
Mineral resources are defined with a Lerchs-Grossmann pit shell and
reported at a 0.021-per-cent-molybdenum-cut-off grade.
Mineral resources are reported using a commodity price of
$15.62 (Canadian) per pound Mo, an average process recovery of 89
per cent, a process cost of $5.84 (Canadian) per tonne
and selling cost of $1.24 per pound of Mo sold. No revenue was
assumed for Ag.
Tonnages are rounded to the nearest 1,000 tonnes, grades are rounded to
three decimal places for Mo and two decimals for Ag.
Rounding as required by reporting guidelines may result in apparent
summation differences between tonnes, grade and contained-metal content.
Tonnage and grade measurements are in metric units; contained molybdenum
is in imperial pounds.
There is potential for a 30- to 50-per-cent recovery of the silver reporting to a saleable concentrate. As of Dec. 1, 2010, the metallurgical work in support of this is indicative only, suggesting that, although there may be a reasonable prospect to extract this silver resource, there is insufficient work to define the level of benefit that would support inclusion of silver in a reserve estimate. No dedicated silver recovery circuit has been included in the process design, but there are reasonable expectations that this can be added in the future.
The mineral resources are reported at a cut-off grade to reflect the reasonable prospects for economic extraction. This estimate of the Kitsault molybdenum deposit is based on open pit extraction, and Avanti and AMEC have not considered underground mining methods for deeper portions of the deposit. Although silver has been reported in the mineral resource, it has not been included in the economic analysis or the reserve statement. There is sufficient metallurgical testwork to suggest it could be an economic contributor, but this work has not yet reached the feasibility level of confidence. The recovery of silver remains a potential-project upside contributor, as well as the opportunity of conversion of inferred to higher confidence categories through additional drilling. Additional drilling will continue through the 2011 field season in parallel with basic and advanced engineering studies.
The attached molybdenum-cut-off table reflects the sensitivity of the resource estimate to various cut-off grades.

AMEC conducted a complete re-evaluation of all old historical and recent drilling information and recalculated the mineral resources from first principals. Ten holes from the previous database were not used in the calculation because of an inability to verify core quality (recoveries) and assay methods.
The Kitsault mine mineral reserves have been prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 standards and CIM definition standard (2010). This statement has been prepared by Ryan W. Ulansky (PEng) of AMEC, a qualified person as defined in NI 43-101. These reserves are sufficient for 16 years of operation at an annual production rate of 40,000 tonnes per day. Mineral reserves are summarized by category in the attached Kitsault mineral reserves table. The notes accompanying the table are an integral part of the mineral reserves and should be read in conjunction with the mineral reserve statement.

Mineral reserves are defined within a mine plan, with pit phase designs
guided by Lerchs-Grossmann pit shells and reported at a 0.026-per-cent-
molybdenum-cut-off grade, after dilution and mining loss adjustments. The
LG shell generation was performed on measured and indicated materials only,
using a molybdenum price of $13.58 (Canadian) per pound, an average mining
cost of $1.94 (Canadian) per tonne mined, a combined ore based cost of
$5.84 (Canadian) per tonne milled and a selling cost of $1.24 per pound of
Mo sold.
Dilution and mining loss have been accounted for based on a waste
neighbour analysis. An amount of 1.5 million tonnes of measured and
indicated material above cut-off was routed as waste. An amount of 1.9
million tonnes of measured and indicated material below cut-off has been
included as dilution material. An additional 200,000 tonnes of inferred
dilution material with grades set to zero are included in the mine plan
as mill feed.
Tonnages are rounded to the nearest 1,000 tonnes, grades are rounded to
three decimal places for Mo.
Rounding as required by reporting guidelines may result in apparent
summation differences between tonnes, grade and contained-metal content.
Tonnage and grade measurements are in metric units; contained molybdenum
is in imperial pounds.
The life of mine strip ratio is 0.77.
Mining
The single ultimate pit will be mined in six phases, with elevated cut-offs in the early years and low-grade stockpiling. A bulk-mining approach has been selected, mining on 10-metre benches. The selected mining fleet features one 26-cubic-metre rope shovel, one 28-cubic-metre electric hydraulic shovel, one 18-cubic-metre front-end loader and up to 10 218-tonne haul trucks with related support equipment. Benches will be drilled with eight-metre-by-eight-metre production drill patterns and wall control patterns as required. The holes will be loaded and shot with a 70-per-cent emulsion/30-per-cent ANFO-blend blasting agent. Ore control will be based on blasthole samples assayed for molybdenum.
Waste rock will be stored in an expansion to the existing Patsy waste management facility. Low-grade ore will be stockpiled throughout the mine life on the top of the existing Clary waste management facility. This ore stockpile will be reclaimed and processed during the last two years of the operation.
The mining production schedule is presented in the attached summarized production table.

As part of the dilution/mining loss adjustments, an additional 202,000 t of inferred
dilution material with grades set to zero are routed to the mill.
Processing
The proposed concentrator in this study is based on an annual resource throughput rate of 14.6 million tonnes, or 40,000 tonnes per day at 92-per-cent plant availability, for the production of a molybdenum concentrate. The processing plant is expected to operate 24 hours/day, 365 days/year. Over the life of mine, the processing plant will produce an estimated 326,150 t of molybdenite concentrate grading 52 per cent Mo. The molybdenum recovery is variable with the average estimated at 89.9 per cent.
The proposed process design is based on historical testwork results, the results from a recent (2009 and 2010) test program and utilizing plant data from the previous Kitsault concentrator operations. Plant design, principally the crushing-grinding circuit, has been revised to reflect current technologies using a primary crusher-SAG-ball mill configuration. The process design is composed of the following unit processes:
Primary crushing using a gyratory crusher;
Grinding using a SAG-ball mill-pebble crusher configuration with cyclones for flotation feed size classification;
Rougher and scavenger flotation;
Five stages of cleaner flotation with three stages of regrinding;
Final molybdenum concentrate thickening, leaching for the removal of contaminants, and the filtering, drying and packaging of the final concentrate;
Flotation to produce desulphidized tailings, which will have a portion cycloned for dam construction, and the rest will be deposited by gravity into an on-site tailings management facility. Pyritic tailings will be deposited in a separate submerged cell in the TMF to prevent oxidation.
Capital costs
Initial capital costs are estimated at $770-million, which includes $50-million for mobile mining equipment. Preproduction stripping costs of $13-million are reflected in the initial operating costs. Life of mine sustaining mine capital was estimated to be $50-million, which is composed mainly of mobile equipment and TMF embankment continuing construction. All capital costs are plus/minus 15 per cent in this estimate.
The capital costs for the mine, plant and TMF are given in the attached capital cost table.

An increased resource estimate contains measured and indicated mineral resources totalling 298.8 million tonnes grading 0.072 per cent molybdenum and 4.20 grams per tonne silver containing 472.5 million pounds of Mo and 40.3 million ounces of Ag. This represents a 9.7-per-cent increase of contained molybdenum and an 18-per-cent increase of contained silver over the company's prior estimate for measured plus indicated mineral resources. In addition, the inferred category totals 157.1 million tonnes grading 0.050 per cent Mo and 3.65 g/t Ag containing 172.2 million pounds of molybdenum and 18.4 million ounces of silver, an increase of 330 per cent of contained molybdenum and 360 per cent of contained silver over the company's previous resource estimate for inferred mineral resources.
The mine plan calls for a total of 232.5 million tonnes of proven and probable reserves grading 0.081 per cent molybdenum to be mined over a 16-year mine life, producing 373.9 million pounds of molybdenum. The first five years of production averages 0.101 per cent Mo.
A long-term exchange rate of 0.92 has been used to convert Canadian dollars to U.S. dollars.
Initial capital costs are estimated at $770-million (plus/minus-15-per-cent accuracy estimated in Canadian dollars at $837-million).
Cash operating costs (mine gate) are estimated to be $4.76 per pound of molybdenum.
The average annual price of molybdenum for the base case scenario over the mine life as forecast by the CPM Group ranges from $13.75 per pound to $18.25 per pound based upon its June, 2010, molybdenum market outlook. The average over the Kitsault mine life is $16.76 per pound of molybdenum. Forecasts were also prepared for a low- and a high-price scenario.
The base case after-tax net present value (8 per cent) is $798-million, with an internal rate of return of 26.8 per cent.
Projected undiscounted net cash flow (after tax) is $2.0-billion.
Annual metal production for the mine life averages 23.4 million pounds of molybdenum with the first five years averaging 29.6 million pounds per year.
There is a life-of-mine roasting agreement in place with Molymet that assures roasting capacity for the project.
The mine has certain infrastructure in place with road and ocean freight access to the mine site and will be serviced by the existing B.C. Hydro transmission grid.
The reopening of the mine is projected to create over 350 high-paying local jobs during its 16-year life and, at the peak of construction, over 650 jobs. The construction period is estimated at 25 months.
The project is progressing through an environmental assessment process under the B.C. and federal legislation, as well as the Nisga'a final agreement, and the company expects to submit its application in April, 2011.
"We are delighted with the plan developed in this feasibility study by AMEC and other contributors," stated Craig J. Nelsen, Avanti's president and chief executive officer. "We are pleased with the project's robust economics and plan to utilize this study as the basis for negotiating strategic partnerships to assist with the financing plan for Kitsault. Our schedule anticipates receipt of permits toward the end of 2011 and construction to follow in early 2012 with initial production in 2014."
Project description
The Kitsault property is located about 140 kilometres north of Prince Rupert, B.C., and south of the head of Alice Arm, an inlet of the Pacific Ocean. The property includes three known molybdenum deposits: Kitsault, Bell Moly and Roundy Creek. The Kitsault mine was a producer of molybdenum between 1967 and 1972 and from 1981 to 1982 with total production on the property during both periods being approximately 31 million pounds of molybdenum.
Kitsault has road access to the mine site, which is approximately 12 kilometres from ocean transport routes and which is serviced by the B.C. Hydro transmission grid. The feasibility study estimates that the Kitsault mine would operate at an annual resource throughput rate of 14.6 million tonnes, or 40,000 tonnes per day, with a strip ratio of 0.77 to 1 during a mine life of 16 years. The ore mined will be crushed in a gyratory primary crusher then grounded using a SAG-ball mill configuration. Conventional flotation and five stages of cleaning will produce molybdenum concentrate that will be dried and packaged into bags for shipment. The life-of-mine molybdenum production is estimated at 373.9 million pounds of molybdenum contained in 326,150 tonnes of molybdenum concentrate produced from the processing of 233.7 million tonnes of reserves plus planned dilution grading 0.081 per cent Mo. Total molybdenum recovery varies depending on mill head grade but is estimated to average 89.9 per cent.
Mineral resource/reserves statement
The mineral resources are reported in accordance with Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum definition standards for mineral resources mineral reserves and its guidelines and are compliant with National Instrument 43-101. The resource estimate was prepared under the supervision of Greg Kulla, PGeo, an independent qualified person, as this term is defined in NI 43-101. The mineral resource statement for the Kitsault molybdenum project is presented in the attached Kitsault mineral resources table.

Mineral resources are inclusive of mineral reserves.
Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have
demonstrated economic viability.
Mineral resources are defined with a Lerchs-Grossmann pit shell and
reported at a 0.021-per-cent-molybdenum-cut-off grade.
Mineral resources are reported using a commodity price of
$15.62 (Canadian) per pound Mo, an average process recovery of 89
per cent, a process cost of $5.84 (Canadian) per tonne
and selling cost of $1.24 per pound of Mo sold. No revenue was
assumed for Ag.
Tonnages are rounded to the nearest 1,000 tonnes, grades are rounded to
three decimal places for Mo and two decimals for Ag.
Rounding as required by reporting guidelines may result in apparent
summation differences between tonnes, grade and contained-metal content.
Tonnage and grade measurements are in metric units; contained molybdenum
is in imperial pounds.
There is potential for a 30- to 50-per-cent recovery of the silver reporting to a saleable concentrate. As of Dec. 1, 2010, the metallurgical work in support of this is indicative only, suggesting that, although there may be a reasonable prospect to extract this silver resource, there is insufficient work to define the level of benefit that would support inclusion of silver in a reserve estimate. No dedicated silver recovery circuit has been included in the process design, but there are reasonable expectations that this can be added in the future.
The mineral resources are reported at a cut-off grade to reflect the reasonable prospects for economic extraction. This estimate of the Kitsault molybdenum deposit is based on open pit extraction, and Avanti and AMEC have not considered underground mining methods for deeper portions of the deposit. Although silver has been reported in the mineral resource, it has not been included in the economic analysis or the reserve statement. There is sufficient metallurgical testwork to suggest it could be an economic contributor, but this work has not yet reached the feasibility level of confidence. The recovery of silver remains a potential-project upside contributor, as well as the opportunity of conversion of inferred to higher confidence categories through additional drilling. Additional drilling will continue through the 2011 field season in parallel with basic and advanced engineering studies.
The attached molybdenum-cut-off table reflects the sensitivity of the resource estimate to various cut-off grades.

AMEC conducted a complete re-evaluation of all old historical and recent drilling information and recalculated the mineral resources from first principals. Ten holes from the previous database were not used in the calculation because of an inability to verify core quality (recoveries) and assay methods.
The Kitsault mine mineral reserves have been prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 standards and CIM definition standard (2010). This statement has been prepared by Ryan W. Ulansky (PEng) of AMEC, a qualified person as defined in NI 43-101. These reserves are sufficient for 16 years of operation at an annual production rate of 40,000 tonnes per day. Mineral reserves are summarized by category in the attached Kitsault mineral reserves table. The notes accompanying the table are an integral part of the mineral reserves and should be read in conjunction with the mineral reserve statement.

Mineral reserves are defined within a mine plan, with pit phase designs
guided by Lerchs-Grossmann pit shells and reported at a 0.026-per-cent-
molybdenum-cut-off grade, after dilution and mining loss adjustments. The
LG shell generation was performed on measured and indicated materials only,
using a molybdenum price of $13.58 (Canadian) per pound, an average mining
cost of $1.94 (Canadian) per tonne mined, a combined ore based cost of
$5.84 (Canadian) per tonne milled and a selling cost of $1.24 per pound of
Mo sold.
Dilution and mining loss have been accounted for based on a waste
neighbour analysis. An amount of 1.5 million tonnes of measured and
indicated material above cut-off was routed as waste. An amount of 1.9
million tonnes of measured and indicated material below cut-off has been
included as dilution material. An additional 200,000 tonnes of inferred
dilution material with grades set to zero are included in the mine plan
as mill feed.
Tonnages are rounded to the nearest 1,000 tonnes, grades are rounded to
three decimal places for Mo.
Rounding as required by reporting guidelines may result in apparent
summation differences between tonnes, grade and contained-metal content.
Tonnage and grade measurements are in metric units; contained molybdenum
is in imperial pounds.
The life of mine strip ratio is 0.77.
Mining
The single ultimate pit will be mined in six phases, with elevated cut-offs in the early years and low-grade stockpiling. A bulk-mining approach has been selected, mining on 10-metre benches. The selected mining fleet features one 26-cubic-metre rope shovel, one 28-cubic-metre electric hydraulic shovel, one 18-cubic-metre front-end loader and up to 10 218-tonne haul trucks with related support equipment. Benches will be drilled with eight-metre-by-eight-metre production drill patterns and wall control patterns as required. The holes will be loaded and shot with a 70-per-cent emulsion/30-per-cent ANFO-blend blasting agent. Ore control will be based on blasthole samples assayed for molybdenum.
Waste rock will be stored in an expansion to the existing Patsy waste management facility. Low-grade ore will be stockpiled throughout the mine life on the top of the existing Clary waste management facility. This ore stockpile will be reclaimed and processed during the last two years of the operation.
The mining production schedule is presented in the attached summarized production table.

Processing
The proposed concentrator in this study is based on an annual resource throughput rate of 14.6 million tonnes, or 40,000 tonnes per day at 92-per-cent plant availability, for the production of a molybdenum concentrate. The processing plant is expected to operate 24 hours/day, 365 days/year. Over the life of mine, the processing plant will produce an estimated 326,150 t of molybdenite concentrate grading 52 per cent Mo. The molybdenum recovery is variable with the average estimated at 89.9 per cent.
The proposed process design is based on historical testwork results, the results from a recent (2009 and 2010) test program and utilizing plant data from the previous Kitsault concentrator operations. Plant design, principally the crushing-grinding circuit, has been revised to reflect current technologies using a primary crusher-SAG-ball mill configuration. The process design is composed of the following unit processes:
Primary crushing using a gyratory crusher;
Grinding using a SAG-ball mill-pebble crusher configuration with cyclones for flotation feed size classification;
Rougher and scavenger flotation;
Five stages of cleaner flotation with three stages of regrinding;
Final molybdenum concentrate thickening, leaching for the removal of contaminants, and the filtering, drying and packaging of the final concentrate;
Flotation to produce desulphidized tailings, which will have a portion cycloned for dam construction, and the rest will be deposited by gravity into an on-site tailings management facility. Pyritic tailings will be deposited in a separate submerged cell in the TMF to prevent oxidation.
Capital costs
Initial capital costs are estimated at $770-million, which includes $50-million for mobile mining equipment. Preproduction stripping costs of $13-million are reflected in the initial operating costs. Life of mine sustaining mine capital was estimated to be $50-million, which is composed mainly of mobile equipment and TMF embankment continuing construction. All capital costs are plus/minus 15 per cent in this estimate.
The capital costs for the mine, plant and TMF are given in the attached capital cost table.

Avanti Mining is developing its core asset, the Kitsault Molybdenum project, a former producing mine, with established infrastructure, located 140 km north of Prince Rupert. British Columbia.
A NI 43-101 compliant Prefeasibility Study completed by Wardrop Engineering in December, 2009 calculated Proven & Probable reserves of 215.3 million tonnes grading 0.085 % Molybdenum, with a 15-year mine life, producing 368 million pounds.

Avanti Mining's final feasibility study for Kitsault molybdenum project sees 46% NPV boost
Avanti Mining's (TSX-V: AVT) final feasibility study for its Kitsault molybdenum property in northwest British Columbia has increased the project's net present value from the pre-feasibility study by 46%, the company said Monday.
The final study, prepared by Amec, reported an after-tax net present value, at an 8% discount rate, of $798 million and an IRR of nearly 27%, assuming a base case average molybdenum price of $16.76/lb. Initial capital costs were estimated at $770 million, with an expected payback period of 2.6 years.
"We are pleased with the projects robust economics and plan to utilize this study as the basis for negotiating strategic partnerships to assist with the financing plan for Kitsault," said president and CEO Craig J. Nelsen.
"The principal reason for the approximately $250 million improvement in the NPV over our Prefeasibility study is the decrease in initial and sustaining capital of almost $200 million and a long term improved outlook for molybdenum prices."
The report assumed an average annual production of 23.4 million pounds of molybdenum for a 16 year mine life at an operating cost of $4.76/lb, with the first five years averaging 29.6 million pounds per year.
The feasibility study also indicated a boost to the project's mineral resources, now estimated to contain Measured and Indicated resources totaling 298.8 million tonnes grading 0.072%molybdenum and 4.20 g/t Ag containing 472.5 million pounds of Mo and 40.3 million ounces of Ag, at a cut-off of 0.021%.
This represents a 9.7% increase of contained molybdenum and an 18% increase of contained silver over the company's prior estimate for measured plus indicated mineral resources, Avanti said.
In addition, the Inferred category now totals 157.1 million tonnes grading 0.050% Mo and 3.65 g/t Ag containing 172.2 million pounds of molybdenum and 18.4 million ounces of silver, an increase of 330% of contained molybdenum and 360% of contained silver from the pre-feasibility study results.
The Kitsault property, which is located about 140 km north of Prince Rupert, includes three known molybdenum deposits: Kitsault, Bell Moly, and Roundy Creek.
The Kitsault mine produced molybdenum between 1967 and 1972 and from 1981 to 1982, with total production during both periods of approximately 31 million pounds of the metal.
According to the current mine plan based on open pit extraction methods, molybdenum production for the life of the mine is estimated at 373.9 million pounds with a production rate of 40,000 tonnes per day. Total molybdenum recovery is estimated to average 89.9%.
"We also expect to add by-product silver recovery after we complete additional metallurgical test that should enhance further the projects economics," added Nelsen.
The Kitsault project has road access to the mine site and is serviced by the BC Hydro transmission grid. The company anticipates receiving permits for the property toward the end of next year, with initial production expected in 2014.
Avanti was up nearly 7% on Monday morning, trading at $0.32 as of 10:11 am EST.

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES
Vancouver, British Columbia: Avanti Mining Inc. (TSX-V:AVT) ("Avanti" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it intends to form a strategic alliance with SeAH Holdings Corp. ("SeAH"), the largest specialty steel producer in Korea. The initial step toward this alliance is a private placement of 43,650,794 shares at $0.252 per share for proceeds of approximately $11,000,000 (the "Offering") which represents 10.7% of Avanti's basic shares outstanding (and 8.0% on a fully diluted basis). The use of proceeds will be to fund detailed design engineering, environmental assessment, permitting for Avanti's Kitsault molybdenum mine in British Columbia (the "Project") and for general corporate purposes.
The next step toward this alliance will be to enter into a letter of intent ("LOI") allowing SeAH to acquire up to a 30% partnership interest in the Project. The Company expects execution of the LOI early in January 2011. The value of the partnership interest will be negotiated based upon the result of the Kitsault feasibility study announced on December 16th, 2010.
"We are pleased to welcome SeAH as a shareholder and potential partner in the redevelopment of the Kitsault mine" said A J Ali, Chief Financial Officer, "attracting a partner who is a sophisticated consumer of molybdenum not only validates the technical attributes of Kitsault, it moves us closer to sourcing the necessary capital to develop the Kitsault mine. This will also augment our debt financing efforts that are underway".
About SeAH Holdings Corp. - SeAH is a public company listed on the Korean stock exchange. SeAH is the holding company of SeAH Group, established in 2001 by separating the SeAH Steel's investment sector and is based in Seoul, South Korea. SeAH has 18 domestic and 13 overseas subsidiaries/operations with business areas in special steel producing, pipe manufacturing, IT and energy. SeAH Besteel Corp., the largest subsidiary of SeAH, is known as the #1 special steel maker in Korea and the company mainly produces automotive parts and shipbuilding parts for globally renowned automakers and shipbuilders. SeAH and SeAH Besteel are currently listed in Korean stock exchange. CPM Group of New York is acting as financial advisor to SeAH in these transactions.
Avanti is also pleased to announce that it has engaged D&D Securities Inc. ("D&D") of Toronto, Ontario as its agent to raise, on a commercially reasonable efforts basis, up to 10,152,284 flow-through common shares of the Company at a price per share of $0.394 for proceeds of approximately $4,000,000 through the sale, on a private placement basis (the "FT Offering"). Each flow-through common share qualifies as a "flow-through share" for the purposes of the Income Tax Act(Canada). The Company will pay D&D a cash commission equal to 8% of the gross proceeds raised in the Offering.
The funds raised from the FT Offering will be used by Avanti for expenditures on its Kitsault molybdenum property which will constitute Canadian exploration expenditures (as defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada)) and will be renounced for the 2010 taxation year.
All securities issued pursuant to the Offering and the FT Offering are subject to a four month hold period from the date of issuance.
The Offering and the FT Offering are subject to the approval of TSX Venture Exchange and are expected to close before December 31, 2010.

Avanti Mining Inc. has closed its previously announced private placement of 43,650,794 shares of the company at 25.2 cents per share for proceeds of approximately $11-million with SeAH Holdings Corp., the largest specialty steel producer in Korea. The company plans to use the proceeds from the offering to finance detailed design engineering, environmental assessment and permitting for the company's Kitsault molybdenum mine in British Columbia and for general corporate purposes.
About SeAH Holdings
SeAH is a public company listed on the Korean stock exchange. SeAH is the holding company of SeAH Group, established in 2001 by separating the SeAH Steel's investment sector and is based in Seoul, South Korea. SeAH has 18 domestic and 13 overseas subsidiaries/operations, with business areas in special steel producing, pipe manufacturing, information technology and energy. SeAH Besteel Corp., the largest subsidiary of SeAH, is known as the No. 1 special steel maker in Korea and the company mainly produces automotive parts and shipbuilding parts for globally renowned automakers and shipbuilders. SeAH and SeAH Besteel are currently listed on the Korean stock exchange. CPM Group of New York is acting as financial adviser to SeAH in these transactions.
The company has also closed its previously announced private placement of 10,152,284 flow-through common shares at a price per share of 39.4 cents, for proceeds of approximately $4-million. The FT offering was sold through D&D Securities Inc. of Toronto, Ont., on a commercially reasonable-efforts basis. The company paid D&D a cash commission equal to 8 per cent of the gross proceeds from the FT offering.
The funds raised from the FT offering will be used by the company for expenditures on its Kitsault molybdenum property, which constitutes exploration expenditures (as defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada)) and will be renounced for the 2010 taxation year.
All securities issued pursuant to the offering and the FT offering are subject to a four-month hold period that expires on May 1, 2011.
We seek Safe Harbor.

Avanti Partnership Discussions Regarding Kitsault Mine With SeAH Terminated
08/02/11
Avanti Mining announces that discussions with SeAH Holdings Corp ("SeAH") with respect to a partnership for the development of the Kitsault project have terminated as terms could not be reached. SeAH has advised that it will continue to support Avanti as a shareholder. Avanti had previously announced these discussions under press releases of January 27, April 27, May 27 and June 15, 2011.
Avanti has recommenced discussions with two other Asian companies that had previously expressed interest in a partnership and has extended the LOI with a major Asian steel producer to September 30, 2011.
"It is disappointing that we could not resolve the issue of molybdenum price support in exchange for a discount above floor price with SeAH in the off take agreement, while most other joint venture investment matters appeared to have been agreed upon and the total debt required was oversubscribed by written expressions of interest from seven financial institutions. We are confident that this strong interest from lenders demonstrates that this project can be financed," said A.J. Ali, Chief Financial Officer.

Als die Preise einbrachen, endete Kitsault 1982 als Geisterstadt. 2005 wurde der Ort als Refugium für Künstler zu neuem Leben erweckt. Sogar unverheiratete Mütter fanden vor streng religiösen Verwandten Zuflucht. Jetzt brausen auf der Hauptstraße fast pausenlos ungezählte Baufahrzeuge und Minengeräte von Avanti Mining durch, um die Molybdän-Förderung bis 2013 wieder anzuwerfen.
Komisch, der Kurs zeigt steil nach unten, 5 Mio Can$-Cash und dort brausen pausenlos Baufahrzeuge? Ohne Partner wird wohl ein benötigter 800 Mio. Can$-Betrag für die Produktionsaufnahme nicht zu stemmen sein und nach dem sieht es wohl derzeit nicht aus?
