TNR GOLD REPORTS ON MARIANA LITHIUM ROYALTY HOLDING


Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 12, 2018) -  TNR Gold Corp. (TSXV: TNR) (“TNR” or the “Company”) advises that International Lithium Corp. (TSXV: ILC) ("ILC") has issued a news release dated December 6, 2018 announcing results of a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) on the Mariana Lithium project in Salta Province, Argentina. TNR holds a 1.8% Net Smelter Returns (“NSR”) Royalty on the Mariana project.
The Mariana Lithium project is owned 82.754% by Ganfeng Lithium and 17.246% by ILC. “The PEA technical report assesses the potential economic viability of developing the 14 exploration licences (Minas), that cover the Salar de Llullaillaco (the Salar) and surrounding area (23,560 hectares), for the purpose of extraction of lithium brine resources and processing of two products – Lithium Carbonate Equivalent and Sulphate of Potash.” 
Highlighted results of the PEA: 
  • 25-year mine life producing 10,000 tonnes per year (“TPY”) Lithium Carbonate Equivalent (“LCE”) plus 84,000 TPY Sulphate of Potash (“SOP”).
  • The estimated CAPEX and OPEX are for a conventional brine extraction facility, solar evaporation ponds and SOP processing with a level of accuracy of -30/+50%.
  • CAPEX estimated at US $243 million for 25-year mine life.
  • NPV = US $192 million after-tax at 10% discount rate, IRR = 20% post-tax.
  • Project results remain positive, even with important negative variations on the driver variables, indicating project strength and resilience; thus, the PEA study indicates Mariana’s proposed 10,000 TPY LCE concentrated brine and 84,000 TPY SOP fertilizer operation has the potential to generate strong economic returns.
The Canadian National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) technical report containing the results of the PEA, with the effective date of November 15, 2018, is expected to be published by January 20, 2019. All information in this announcement is based on ILC’s news release. 
“The Mariana Lithium PEA study for ILC is the first preliminary economic study that provides a potential value for the total NSR Royalty from the project’s life of mine cash flow. TNR’s 1.8% NSR Royalty is an important part of TNR’s portfolio,” stated Kirill Klip, Executive Chairman of TNR. "The essence of our business model is to have industry leaders like Ganfeng Lithium as operators on the projects that will potentially generate royalty cash flows to contribute significant value for our shareholders.”



ILC’s press releases and website material state that they have been prepared by Qualified Persons and the procedures, methodology and key assumptions disclosed therein are those adopted and consistently applied in the mining industry, but no Qualified Person engaged by TNR Gold Corp. has done sufficient work to analyze, interpret, classify or verify ILC’s information to determine the current mineral resource or other information referred to in their press releases. Accordingly, the reader is cautioned in placing any reliance on the disclosures therein. 
Cautionary Note: 
The preliminary economic assessment (PEA) is preliminary in nature, and it includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be realized. The PEA includes the results of an economic analysis of mineral resources, and mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. 
Details regarding the manner in which the PEA was calculated will be available under the profile of International Lithium Corp. on SEDAR at http://www.sedar.com

Red Metal Goes Green In The Tesla Energy rEVolution: Visual Capitalist - How Much Copper Is In An Electric Vehicle?




Red metal goes green in the Tesla Energy rEVolution. Goldman Sachs now estimates that copper will be in structural "severe deficits" starting from 2023. And it is happening even before The Switch - the real mass-scale transition to renewable energy generation and when electric cars will affect millions of households all over the world. Despite stormy markets, the smart money was buying all the best copper projects last year. Only new copper giants like Los Azules Copper project under operation by the legendary McEwen Mining can bridge the coming very soon huge supply gap. 





Visual Capitalist presents a brilliant illustration of copper place in the energy rEVolution and particularly in electric vehicles. Smart Grids connecting renewables like Solar and Wind with the grid and charging infrastructure for electric cars will bring another drive for copper demand for very many years to come. Green Energy Metals Royalty Company TNR Gold holds 0.36% NSR Royalty on the entire Los Azules Copper project in Argentina and you can find more information about it in our presentation below.

Why More Gold M&A Is Coming: GEM Royalty TNR Gold Presentation - Gold In Alaskan Elephant Country.



We will discuss with you details of the recent mega-mergers in the Gold mining sector between Barrick Gold and Randgold which was followed this week by $10B merger between Newmont Mining and Goldcorp in my next blog article. Today I would like to share with you a few main thoughts about the recent stage of the Gold market. 




Now the best exploration for Gold is on the stock exchanges: all mining companies are greatly undervalued and junior miners are priced for their bankruptcy and office furniture liquidation value.  Major M&A is signalling that Golden Cross, which Frank Holmes is brilliantly illustrating above, is for real and industry insiders are shopping when the value is still really depressed, but this situation will not stay for long anymore. "Stealth Gold Bull Market" - Rob McEwen was talking about has grown up and is going to break a lot of "China in the monetary shop". 




Newmont Mining CEO Gary Goldberg was talking today on Bloomberg about falling Gold production in the years to come. The industry needs new resources and new giant projects in the pipeline just to keep the decline in production from a total crash. We have reached Peak Gold, great projects are coming few and far between. 




Barrick Gold is developing together with NovaGold 40MOZ giant Donlin Gold in Alaska - "arguably the most important Gold project in the world." So where will you be looking for the elephants? Maybe in the Alaskan Elephant Country.

Gold In Alaskan Elephant Country: TNR Gold Shotgun Gold Presentation December 2018.



"The third major component in TNR’s portfolio is the Shotgun gold project, located close to NovaGold and Barrick Gold’s Donlin project in Alaska. Early resource numbers suggest the project holds 20.7 million tons of ore with an average gold grade of 1.06 grams a ton, with a 0.5 g/t cut-off grade. Barrick and NovaGold’s project obtained a key environmental approval from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in April, indicating the government of Donald Trump is more amenable to mining in Alaska. Once again, external factors are moving in TNR Gold’s favor. 
Klip’s next step with Shotgun is to find an exploration partner of the same caliber as McEwen. One of TNR’s board members, Greg Johnson, founded NovaGold and was instrumental in the discovery of Donlin. He is entrusted with the task of finding that partner, Klip said. Don’t bet against TNR repeating the success it has had so far in ILC and Los Azules." InvestorIntel.

TNR Gold's Shotgun Project: Mining M&A - NovaGold’s Laser-focused Strategy Of Unlocking The Value Of Donlin Gold In Alaska After Newmont Buys Out Share Of Galore Creek.




This is why I am calling TNR Gold's Shotgun Gold project location in Alaska "Gold in Alaskan Elephant Country":

“This transaction is a win-win for all parties,” said Thomas Kaplan, NovaGold’s chairman. “For NovaGold’s shareholders, it is the continuation of a laser-focused strategy of unlocking the value of its assets and transforming the company into a pure play on Donlin gold, which we believe is the most important gold development story in the industry.”





Now Nova Gold has more capital to advance Donlin Gold and Alaska is getting back into mining business with the new wave of M&A activity in mining. The driving force for the next wave of consolidation in mining will be the lack of available exploration capital for the mining juniors due to the down cycle in the Gold market and smaller and smaller returns on the invested capital with the exploration in the green fields. 





To put it simply: it is harder and harder to find the promising projects with the initial confirmed resource, blue sky exploration potential, and stable mining jurisdiction to capitalize on the major gold discovery. I believe, that TNR Gold's Shotgun project is well placed in this part of the cycle in order to attract the major strategic partner for its development.

Alaska is coming back in play as the best jurisdiction for the elephant style Gold deposits on the American soil. Barrick and Nova Gold are moving forward the giant Donlin Gold deposit and now the whole region play will bring the reevaluation for all players involved.
