Minera Alamos is a gold development company aiming to become a producer in 2021. The Company has three high-quality Mexican assets, including the 100%-owned Santana open-pit, heap-leach development project that is currently under construction. They also have the newly acquired 100%-owned Cerro de Oro oxide gold project that has considerable past drilling and metallurgical work completed and could enter the permitting process rapidly. The La Fortuna open pit gold project (100%-owned) has an extremely robust and positive preliminary economic assessment (PEA) completed and the main Federal permits in hand. 

Minera Alamos is built around its operating team that has brought 3 mines into production in Mexico over the last 13 years. 

The Santana project is a fully-funded CAD$12m operation and started construction in June, post-Covid delays, aiming to have the heap-leach carbon plant completed by the end of March. Materials will go onto the pad in early April and first Gold production is expected by the end of Q2, ramping up during the first 6 months of production towards 2022 when they will be at formal production guidance. 

The No 2 project at Cerro de Oro has published a conservative resource estimate as a starting point for the resource which will get bigger with further expansion drilling and metallurgical work as they head towards production. The plan is to get Santana into production and then to start on the construction of Cerro de Oro, hoping to be in production there in 2022. 

Minera Alamos started the year with CAD$18m in cash with zero debt. They have enough capital to get Santana completed and into production and also to start construction at Cerro de Oro. Once Santana is producing Gold, this cash flow will be aimed at completing Cerro de Oro ready for production. There will be no need to go back to the market for additional capital fundraising.

The project at Fortuna might well be pushed back a little as Minera Alamos concentrates on Santana and then Cerro de Oro to get production up and running but work will continue there adding value to the project, aiming for production in 2024. 

The strategy for Minera Alamos is to develop very low capex, heap leach assets, all of which can be profitable even in a low Gold environment. We look forward to lots of news flow from Minera Alamos this year on Santana as it heads towards production and Cerro de Oro as the expansion of the resource continues.

Ion Energy is Mongolia’s first Lithium brine explorer and developer. Ion Energy is an early stage Lithium brine exploration company, formed in 2017 and in 2019 they were granted a 81,000 ha exploration license close to the Chinese border which is the largest land package ever given to a public or private company by the Mongolian government. 

The company went public in August and is trading on the TSX venture on the back of the renewed interest in battery metals which is mostly prompted by government spending. 

The Baavhavi Uul 80,000 ha project is highly prospective for Lithium brine with low potassium and Magnesium levels. Ion Energy started the exploration at Baahavi in October with significant levels of Lithium revealed to date. This included a geophysics programme and will move onto a microseismic shortly with the prospect of licensing looking promising.

Ion Energy has an experienced team in Mongolia which as a country is very underexplored. The company plans to acquire assets where work has already been carried out and to de-risk them further at which point they will bring in a strategic company as a JV or exit entirely rather than to bring the projects into production themselves.

Ion Energy is fully funded for their 2021 exploration programme and results will be released to the market as an early resource estimate. The company also has announcements to make regarding additional licenses for acquisition in country which could be hard rock, spodumene acquisitions.

Ion Energy will continue to de-risk the Baahavi project and aims to start conversations with strategic companies by the end of the year. As one of the younger stories in the Lithium space, Ion Energy is poised to become a significant player in the Lithium market and they are hopefully timing their entry just right.

Callinex Mines is busy advancing its portfolio of zinc rich deposits located in the Bathurst Mining District and the Flin Flon Mining District in Canada, where nearby operations are actively mining for zinc, copper, gold and silver.

The company has recently raised $8.88M of which $6M is allocated for flow-through in Manitoba where they have the rapidly emerging Rainbow discovery which has high-grade Copper, precious metals, Gold, Silver and Zinc by-products. They have recently produced some good results which show the potential size of the project there. The objective of the 30,000m drill programme is to outline a 20-30 million tonne resource and to build the Rainbow project as an anchor mine for the Flin Flon area. 

The timeline for 2021 is to continue the Rainbow drill programme with initial results out in April. In the meantime, they are also in the early stages of drilling at the Nash Street project in New Brunswick where the 2018 PEA outlined a 10 year, 3,900 tpd open-pit mining operation. They are excited to be able to extend the life of the mine beyond 10 years. The story there is Silver and it is ideally located in proximity to infrastructure, the highway, power station, rail line and the port. They are advancing the near-surface silver discoveries in New Brunswick which have the potential to be significant in size, tonnage and are near-surface discoveries.

The market has reacted to the Callinex story so far and we’ve seen their share price go from C$2.85 to C$3.70 since we last spoke to the company in December. Everyone is interested in Copper and Silver commodities at the moment which is what the company is interested in. As the drill programme continues we will watch with interest as news of those come onto the market very shortly.

Lake Resources is a Lithium developer utilising direct extraction technology (DLE) for the development of sustainable, high purity Lithium from its flagship Kachi Project, as well as three other Lithium brine projects in Argentina. The four projects cover 220,000 hectares in a prime location within the Lithium Triangle, where 40% of the world’s Lithium is produced at the lowest cost.

Lake Resources was established 5 years ago when they put the assets together in Argentina. The team had experience of working in South America and their approach was to develop one main project in a prominent location next to other well-known producers. Then 3 years ago they developed DLE at Kachi as the battery/cathode market was pushing for more consistency with low-level impurities in the product.

Buyers and manufacturers of battery quality Lithium want more sustainable products going forward. The DLE method has a smaller physical footprint than the saltwater brine technique. There is reduced energy consumption and smaller usage of water with DLE which is better environmentally. The Lithium produced is a consistent, high-quality product that meets the demands of the Tier 1 EV and battery makers. 

The last 2 years have been difficult for the company, but now, in 2021, the Lithium market has turned and the EV market has realised the need for a greater supply of battery quality materials and Lake Resources has its PFS completed, ready to go. They have recently raised $20M. The DFS will be out by Q1 of next year and by the middle of next year, all the studies will be completed with the final approvals ready for construction finance agreements. 

Lake Resources can demonstrate that they can produce a high-quality product that the market wants at scale and can do this in a sustainable and environmentally sensitive way which very few companies can do. Their projects are large and are in the process of scaling up Kachi from 25,000-50,000 tons and they are in the process of developing the next projects too. 

There will be a lot of news coming out from Lake Resources in the next 12-18 months so watch this space.
