Edelmetalle, Miningscout 10 / 07 / 2012
Mexico und seine Edelmetalle
Mexico ist ein an Rohstoffen reiches Land und wird trotz der Schattenseiten für den Edelmetallmarkt immer wichtiger. Im Februar ist die Silberproduktion auf 375.000 Kilogramm gestiegen. Die Goldproduktion stieg um 34% und die Kupferproduktion sogar um 38%. 2011 wurden in Mexico 4.500 Tonnen Silber produziert und liegt damit vor China und Peru auf dem ersten Platz. Bei Gold sieht es etwas anders aus. Dort befindet sich Mexico mit 86 Tonnen auf dem zehnten Platz. Hier ist China der Vorreiter mit 355 Tonnen gefördertes Gold im Jahre 2011.
Mexico liegt dafür aber bei den Förderkosten ganz vorne. Diese liegen durchschnittlich bei ca. 325 Dollar pro Unze Gold. Weltweit liegt der Durchschnitt bei ca. 650 – 700 Dollar pro Unze. Damit wird auch Mexico bei den Bergbaukonzernen immer beliebter..

Der Ausstoß der (Gold- &) Silberminen in Mexiko zieht weiter kräftig an. Die jüngsten Daten vom NS Institut unterstreichen den starken Trend. Ein gutes Zeichen für den bewährten Sektor in einem der silberreichsten Länder der Welt. Der ungebrochene Aufwärtstrend wird sich positiv auf alle aktiven Silberproduzenten auswirken.
Mexico silver output up 18.6% in May
The National Statistics Institute said on Tuesday output climbed to 420,629 kg in May as strong prices continued to spur production..

Miners in Latin America are facing both growth and challenges. Heiko Ihle, senior research analyst with Euro Pacific Capital, examines the factors behind these trends. In this Gold Report interview, Ihle urges investors to evaluate mining companies based on three important features rather than on the performance of others in the region.

Financial Results (Consolidated Statement of Operations appended below)
For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company generated revenue totaling $208.1 million (2011 - $128.0 million). During the year, the Company sold 4,815,073 oz silver and 35,167 oz gold at realized prices of $30.99 and $1,674 per oz respectively as compared to sales of 2,838,784 oz silver and 17,044 oz gold at realized prices of $35.61 and $1,570 per oz respectively in 2011.
After cost of sales of $130.1 million (2011 - $59.2 million), mine operating earnings amounted to $78.0 million (2011 - $68.8 million) from mining and milling operations in Mexico.
Excluding depreciation and depletion of $29.7 million (2011 - $17.1 million), stock-based compensation of $0.5 million (2011- $0.5 million), and a write-down of inventory of $6.2 million (2011- $nil), mine operating cash flow before taxes was $114.4 million (2011 - $86.3 million) in 2012. Operating earnings were $47.5 million (2010 - $15.6 million) and the Company incurred net earnings for the year ended December 31, 2012 of $53.6 million (2011-$47.5 million).
Net earnings include a mark-to-market derivative liability loss related to share purchase warrants issued in 2009 denominated in Canadian dollars, while the Company's functional currency is the US dollar. Under IFRS, these warrants are classified and accounted for as financial liability at fair market value with adjustments recognized through net earnings. The appreciation of these warrants resulted in a derivative liability gain of $1.9 million (2011 - loss of $13.7 million). Therefore, adjusted earnings were $40.2 million ($0.42 per share) compared to $32.4 million ($0.37 per share).
Cash cost, net of gold by-product credits, increased 44% to $7.33 per oz silver produced (2011 - $5.08). The increased cash cost per ounce was largely due to the acquisition of the El Cubo mine, a low-grade, high-cost mining operation. Similar to Guanacevi and Bolanitos, Endeavour sees strong potential to turn El Cubo into a high-grade, low-cost, long life underground mine because the new reserve grades for silver and gold at El Cubo are 78% and 51% higher respectively compared to the current production grades, and because of Endeavour's experience at discovering new high-grade ore-bodies, developing new mines into production and expanding both production tonnes and ore grades at Guanacevi and Bolanitos.
In addition to the acquisition of El Cubo, the Company invested a total of $66.2 million in capital expenditures on property, plant and equipment during 2012. Approximately $19.3 million was invested at Guanacevi, including $12.6 million for 7.3 kilometres (km) of mine development, $1.3 million on processing facilities, $4.8 million on mine equipment and $0.6 million on office equipment, building upgrades and vehicles. The mine equipment capital was primarily for underground equipment, pumps, ventilation, and electrical systems.
A total of $31.3 million was invested at Bolanitos including $18.5 million for significant reserve delineation and 8.5 km of mine development in the Lucero mine area to support 1,600 tpd of mine output. Another $6.6 million was spent on the plant expansion providing capacity of 1,600 tpd, while ensuring the optionality of further plant expansions. Additionally $4.6 million was spent on mine equipment and $1.6 million on office equipment, building upgrades and light vehicles. The mine equipment expenditure was to expand the mobile equipment fleet for increased production, to purchase communications and rescue equipment and rehabilitate the Asuncion shaft. The expenditures on office equipment include software upgrades and the building expenditures include refurbishing the Asuncion head frame.
An initial $14.5 million was invested at El Cubo with $9.7 million spent on 5.4 km of mine development, $4.1 million on the El Tajo plant rehabilitation and expansion, $0.4 million on mine equipment and $0.3 million on office equipment, building upgrades and light vehicles.
Exploration Results
In January 2012, Endeavour commenced an aggressive $15.0 million surface exploration drill program to test multiple exploration targets within three of the mining districts where Endeavour is currently active in Mexico. Subsequent to the acquisition of El Cubo, the Company added an additional 11,000 metres and $2.6 million to explore El Cubo targets and follow up on the San Sebastian property's year to date results. By the end of 2012, 191 diamond drill holes totaling 74,000 metres of core were completed.
Endeavour enjoyed another strong year of reserve and resource growth thanks to the success of its acquisition, exploration and development programs. Endeavour's exploration team continued to discover new, high-grade silver-gold deposits within historic silver mining districts such as Guanacevi, Guanajuato and San Sebastian in 2012. The recently acquired El Cubo mine and Guadalupe y Calvo property were also accretive to reserves and resources.
In particular, the Company's discoveries in the Milache area at Guanacevi, the Lana vein at Bolanitos and the Terronera vein at San Sebastian all contributed significantly to the 2012 resource growth. Endeavour more than replaced the proven and probable reserves it depleted in 2012 and increased its resources in all categories as a result of its successful acquisition, exploration and development programs. Gold reserves and resources rose more than silver reserves and resources because both the newly discovered mineralized zones at Bolanitos and San Sebastian and the recently acquired El Cubo and Guadalupe y Calvo properties have more gold compared to Guanacevi.
2013 Outlook
Endeavour plans another year of organic growth in 2013. Silver production is forecast to increase 12-18% to 5.0-5.3 million oz and gold production is anticipated to increase 19-27% to 46,000-49,000 oz as shown in the table below. Silver equivalent production is expected to climb 14-22% to 7.3-7.8 million oz (at a silver:gold ratio of 50:1).
