Caldas Gold to raise $90m for expansion
TSX-V-listed Caldas Gold is looking to raise up to $90-million to fund the expansion of its mining operations in the Marmato Deeps Zone (MDZ) in Colombia.
The company on Monday announced a proposed issuance and sale of up to 90 000 subscription receipts at $1 000 each, on a fully-marketed private placement.
The terms of the offering were negotiated with Scotiabank and Canaccord Genuity, as co-lead agents on behalf of a syndicate of agents including Stifel Nicolaus Canada and Red Cloud Securities.
Closing of the offering is expected to occur on August 26.
In June, Caldas entered into a $110-million precious metals purchase agreement with Wheaton as the first step in securing financing for the expansion in the MDZ.
A prefeasibility study (PFS), published in July, confirmed the economic viability of an underground expansion at Marmato.
Over the 14-year mine life based on mineral reserves in the PFS, production is estimated to total 1.9-million recoverable ounces of gold and 1.6-million recoverable ounces of silver from the existing Upper Mine and the expansion of the second operation into the MDZ.
Gold production will average about 165 400 oz/y from 2024 through 2033 once the MDZ is in full production with LoM total cash cost of $772/oz of gold and an average LoM all-in sustaining cost of $872/oz of gold.
Stock in Caldas rose 7.3% to C$2.50 a share.
