Eldorado Gold Reports 2017 Second Quarter Results

 

VANCOUVER, BC – Eldorado Gold Corporation, (“Eldorado” or “the Company”) today reported the Company’s financial and operational results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2017.

 

Second Quarter Financial and Operational Highlights

  •  
Profit of $11.2 million ($0.02 per share), compared to a loss of $329.9 million ($0.46 per share) in the second quarter of 2016 (which included $339.0 million loss on re-measurement of Chinese assets). Adjusted net earnings of $6.3 million ($0.01 per share) compared to an adjusted net earnings of $11.7 million ($0.01 per share) in the second quarter of 2016.
  •  
Gold production of 63,692 ounces, (including pre-commercial production).
  •  
Gold revenues of $72.2 million on sales of 57,206 ounces of gold at an average realized gold price of $1,262 per ounce.
  •  
All-in sustaining cash costs averaged $846 per ounce.
  •  
Cash operating costs averaged $484 per ounce; compared to 2017 guidance of $485-535 per ounce.
  •  
Total liquidity of approximately $1.0 billion, including $752.1 million in cash, cash equivalents and term deposits, and $250 million in undrawn lines of credit at quarter end. Cash, cash equivalents and term deposits after payment for the acquisition of Integra was $609.3 million.
  •  
Olympias Phase II commissioning continued and commercial production is now expected by the end of 2017.
  •  
Announced the definitive agreement with Integra Gold Corp. to acquire all of issued and outstanding common shares, not already owned by the Company, by way of a plan of arrangement; transaction closed post-quarter end.
  •  
Construction at Skouries continued, with production now targeted for 2020.
  •  
George Burns assumed the role of President & Chief Executive Officer on April 28, 2017.

 

“It was an eventful second quarter with site tours to Greece to demonstrate our continued progression of development and news of the Integra acquisition,” said George Burns, Eldorado’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Commissioning at Olympias continues, although we now expect to declare commercial production by the end of 2017. Skouries development is progressing as we continue to endeavour to work with the Greek government to advance this key project. News of ounce recovery deferral at Kisladag was unexpected, however the operations and engineering groups have implemented corrections to solution chemistry that are expected to achieve normal recovery rates.”

 

“I am pleased that the Integra acquisition has closed. We proudly welcomed our new employees in Quebec to our team earlier this month and we look forward to expanding our production base within this highly prospective region going forward.”

Review of Quarterly Financial Results

Profit attributable to shareholders of the Company for the second quarter of 2017 was $11.2 million, ($0.02 per share), compared to a loss of $329.9 million, ($0.46 per share) in the second quarter of 2016 (which included $339.0 million loss on re-measurement of Chinese assets). Adjusted net earnings for the quarter were $6.3 million ($0.01 per share) as compared to an adjusted net earnings of $11.7 million ($0.01 per share) for the second quarter of 2016. The main difference between profit and adjusted net earnings in the second quarter of 2017 was the fluctuation on foreign exchange translation of deferred income tax balances in Turkey, Greece and Brazil.

Gold sales of 57,206 ounces and gross profit from continuing operations were lower year over year due to lower production and sales at Kisladag and shipping delays at Efemcukuru. General and administrative expenses increased $0.8 million year over year due to reorganization costs in Vancouver and Greece. Exploration expense increased $3.8 million including $1.6 million related to exploration activities at Stratoni. Mine standby costs of $1.3 million were recorded in the second quarter of 2017 related to Vila Nova, Perama Hill and Skouries underground development.

Second Quarter Review and 2017 Outlook

 

TURKEY

 

Kisladag

Kisladag reported gold production of 38,456 ounces for the quarter, down 23% year over year. Reduced solution grades resulted from continued slow leaching of higher pad stack heights and increased cyanide requirements.

 

During the quarter, the placement of estimated recoverable gold on the leach pad proceeded as planned, however, gold solution grade and consequently gold recovery from the leach pad lagged internal expectations throughout the quarter. Recent laboratory results, where solution chemistry was adjusted, have indicated normal recovery rates can still be expected. More time is now required to adjust the overall pad solution chemistry and allow solution to flow through the leach pad. With the current stack height being approximately 80 metres at the highest point, vertical flow rates are approximately one metre per day.

 

Sustaining capital expenditures of $4.9 million included a $1.5 million reimbursement for the handing over of the completed 154kV power transmission line to local authorities as part of the original development agreement.

 

Efemcukuru

Gold production of 23,184 ounces for the quarter was in-line year over year. Total gold ounces sold of 18,754 were lower due to a religious holiday in Turkey. Cash operating costs of $525 per ounce were higher year over year due to lower mined grades. Capital expenditures of $5.6 million included underground development, mine equipment overhauls and process and waste rock/tailings facilities construction projects.

 

GREECE

 

Stratoni

Concentrate production of 10,157 tonnes for the second quarter was lower year over year due to a reduction in ore tonnes processed and slightly lower mined grades (6.1% Pb, 9.4% Zn, 159 g/t Ag). The expected reduced grade and tonnage performance reflects the continuing depletion of the current mineable ore reserves remaining at the Mavres Petres mine.

 

Olympias

Olympias Phase II was substantially completed during the quarter. Wet commissioning of the plant began in early May. The plant operated under commissioning control through the remainder of the month and under operations control for trial production in June. Gold production of 2,052 ounces for the quarter is considered pre-commercial. Commissioning is progressing well, with lead/silver, zinc and gold concentrates being moved into market, however a bottleneck in the tailings filtration stage is limiting capacity to approximately 60% of design throughput. An engineering solution is being advanced and is expected to be implemented during the third quarter. Commercial production is now expected by the end of the year.

  3
   

 

Capital spending for the quarter at Olympias was $27.1 million, with the majority deployed for continued underground development and rehabilitation in the Olympias underground, construction of the Phase II plant and construction works in the Kokkinolakkas tailings management facility.

 

Due to this slower than expected start-up, 2017 guidance at Olympias has been reduced from 40,000 to 50,000 ounces to 20,000 to 30,000 ounces.

 

Skouries

Work continued in the second quarter with the onset of better weather conditions. Building erection work commenced with key covered storage in place by quarter end. Tree clearing in the tailings dam area began along with continued construction of the access road through the base of the dam, as well as enabling works that are key for the start of the tailings embankment construction. Earthworks also continued on the tailings thickener foundations and the stockpile dome embankments, with both close to final grade by quarter end.  

 

Total capital expenditure for the quarter was $18.6 million. Capital expenditure continues to lag behind expectations and it is now estimated that $80-$90 million will be spent in 2017 compared to the originally estimated $170-$200 million. Delays in capital expenditure are attributable to the slower start to the year in combination with ongoing delays in the granting of required permits by the Greek government to enable ramp-up in construction activities. Production is now targeted for 2020.

 

Perama Hill

The project remains on care and maintenance pending receipt of the Environmental Impact Study permit.

 

BRAZIL

 

Tocantinzinho

The installation licence for the site was issued by the Para State Government during the quarter, however the road and power line licence applications are still under review. Basic engineering is largely complete for the process plant and detailed infrastructure engineering was completed during the second quarter. Work continued on the detailed design required for tailings and solution pond permit applications and all permit approvals are expected during the first quarter of 2018.

 

A total of $2.5 million was spent during the quarter.

 

ROMANIA

 

Certej

Engineering and design work continued in order to support the permitting of the oxidative process, tailings and waste management facilities.  Optimization studies were completed on the metallurgical process. Tailings and waste management studies continued with a selection of an optimum tailings pond and waste dump location from a short list of suitable locations. Permitting level designs will be completed based on the selected option.  Engineering and permitting for offsite infrastructure continued with work progressing on the main power line, mine access road, water tanks and water supply pipeline. 

 

A total of $4.2 million was spent during the quarter.

  4
   


Integra Acquisition

During the quarter, the Company announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement with Integra Gold Corp. to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares that the Company did not already own by way of a plan of arrangement. (“Arrangement”). Pursuant to the Arrangement, Integra shareholders collectively received, for all the issued common shares of Integra that Eldorado did not already own, approximately CAD$129 million cash and 77 million common shares of Eldorado (representing approximately 10% of the total issued common shares of Eldorado, post-completion of the Arrangement). Total consideration was approximately $360 million, inclusive of Integra shares held by Eldorado. The Arrangement was successfully completed on July 10, 2017.

 

Project Overview

The principal asset is the Lamaque project near Val-d’Or, Quebec. A Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) was completed in February 2017 that envisioned a high-grade underground operation producing 123,000 ounces of gold per year for over 10 years at all-in sustaining costs of US$634 per ounce.  Lamaque hosts a NI 43-101 Indicated Resource of 5.1 million tonnes at a grade of 9.13 grams per tonne gold and an Inferred Resource of 3.5 million tonnes at a grade of 7.94 grams per tonne gold (at a 5.0 gram per tonne gold cut-off).  The Company is currently in the process of advancing underground ramp development to facilitate underground exploration and collection of a bulk sample by year end. To date, the underground ramp has progressed over 1,135 metres and the bulk sample has been initiated with over 5,107 tonnes collected to date.

 

Exploration

The Company will continue to expand exploration of the Lamaque project area, building on the experience and knowledge of the Quebec team gained from the discovery and exploration of the Triangle deposit.  Drilling planned for the second half of 2017 includes testing of new exploration targets in the project area, step-out drilling on recent high-grade drill intercepts not yet correlated with known mineralized structures, and additional drilling at the Triangle deposit on extensions of the C5 and C7 mineralized zones.  Additional project upside is being outlined through ongoing property-scale targeting studies that integrates the extensive historical exploration and mining data for the project area with new geophysical survey data and our enhanced understanding of controls on gold mineralization.

 

Updated Technical Study & Resource

The current PEA, based on the Triangle Resource from November 2016, does not incorporate the latest Triangle Resource (March 2017) or the 110,000 plus metres of additional drilling that supported the March 2017 resource model. This and ongoing drilling has shown increased overall confidence in the Triangle Resource and a positive trend of better grades and thicknesses, particularly in the shallower portions of the deposit. A technical study is currently underway which will include not only the data supporting the March 2017 model but also information from a further 60,000 metres of drilling. The study will optimize the PEA for capital and operating costs to a pre-feasibility level of confidence and is expected to confirm maiden reserves for Triangle deposit in the first quarter of 2018.

Exploration Review

During the second quarter the Company completed 21,650 metres of exploration drilling at the Company’s exploration projects and mines. Exploration expenditures for the quarter totaled $8.6 million.

 

Turkey

At Efemcukuru, the 2017 program includes delineation drilling on the Kestane Beleni vein, drill-testing exploration targets within the central parts of the Kokarpinar vein system and identifying and testing new targets outside of these two main vein systems. Delineation drilling of 5,564 metres was completed during the second quarter at Kestane Beleni on Inferred Resource zones in the south and middle ore shoots and Kestane Beleni northwest areas, for a 2017 drilling total of 8,173 metres. The results are positive, with numerous intercepts yielding higher gold grades than previously modelled.

 

At Kokarpinar, the first three drillholes of the 2017 program were completed. All intersected thick vein intervals at shallow levels with textural and mineralogical characteristics similar to high-grade veins at Kestane Beleni and from other parts of the Kokarpinar vein. Assay results are pending.

 

Exploration elsewhere in Turkey included reconnaissance programs in the western part of the country, evaluating the potential for epithermal and porphyry systems associated with Tertiary volcanic centers.

 

Romania

In the Certej district, exploration during the quarter focused on the Bolcana and Sacaramb projects. At Bolcana, 9,295 metres were drilled in six drillholes, bringing the 2017 drilling total to 13,394 metres. Many of these holes were collared on the margins of the porphyry system and oriented such that they tested the porphyry system at depth. Initial results confirm that strong mineralization in the system continues to depth and that the deposit footprint extends further to the west than was previously assumed.

 

Six drill rigs are currently active at the project, testing the continuity of these zones at shallower levels of the system. A total of 22,000 metres of drilling is planned for the Bolcana project in 2017.

 

Serbia

Exploration during the quarter focused on the KMC project, where 7,393 metres of diamond drilling were completed at the Shanac, Copper Canyon, and Gradina prospects. At Shanac, seven drillholes tested the extent of the gold-rich magnetite skarn defined in the 2016 drilling program, intersecting similar grades and thicknesses to those previously encountered. Drilling is now testing extensions to high-grade zones at Copper Canyon and Gradina, as well as new targets on the property.

 

Greece

At the Stratoni mine, nine underground drillholes were completed during the second quarter testing the lower portion of the Mavres Petres orebody. These drillholes include both delineation holes designed to convert existing Inferred Resources and down-dip stepouts designed to identify new resources. Most delineation drillholes have intersected ore thicknesses greater than those predicted by the resource model, while the stepout holes have demonstrated downdip continuity of the orebody.

 

The first two drillholes of the 2017 program at the early-stage Tsikara porphyry prospect were completed, testing soil geochemical and geophysical anomalies associated with breccia and intrusive contact zones. Only weakly mineralized zones have been intersected and an additional four drillholes on other nearby targets remain in the planned program.

2017 Outlook

In 2017 Eldorado expects to produce 290,000 – 340,000 ounces of gold, including pre-commercial ounces from Olympias Phase II. Cash costs are forecasted at $500 per ounce, with all-in sustaining cash costs expected to be approximately $900 per ounce.

In early June, the Greek Ministry of Environment and Energy (“the Ministry”) issued a press release indicating it had requested the Greek Council of State to take preparatory steps to initiate arbitration proceedings with the Company, however provided no specific or additional details. The Company has not yet received arbitration notice, but if initiated the arbitration process could take a minimum of four months. Meanwhile, permits applied for remain unissued and the 2017 guidance on Skouries capital spending and start-up has been revised accordingly. The Company continues to evaluate all capital spending and development timelines at its projects in Greece.

As at June 30, 2017, the Company’s balance sheet remains strong, with $752 million in cash, cash equivalents and term deposits and $250 million in undrawn credit lines. Cash, cash equivalents and term deposits after payment for the acquisition of Integra was $609.3 million. Sustaining capital for gold mining operations in 2017 is estimated to be approximately $70 million. Based on current plans, expenditures for project development are being revised downwards to $225 million. Exploration expenditure guidance for 2017 remains at $35 million, with a balanced focus on resource delineation and brownfield drilling at existing operations, advancing early-stage projects and project generation.

 

Corporate

After the Annual General Meeting on April 27, 2017. Mr. George Burns succeeded Mr. Paul Wright as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Burns also joined Eldorado’s Board of Directors.

 

Dividend

In line with terms and Conditions of the Company’s Dividend Policy, where no dividend is paid on a realized gold price under $1,250 for gold sold in the prior six months, the Company will suspend the cash payment of its semi-annual dividend effective the third quarter of 2017. The realized price by the Company on gold sold during the first half of 2017 was $1,240.

These definitions differ from the definitions in the United States Securities & Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Industry Guide 7. In the United States, a mineral reserve is defined as a part of a mineral deposit which could be economically and legally extracted or produced at the time the mineral reserve determination is made.

While the terms “mineral resource”, “measured mineral resource,” “indicated mineral resource”, and “inferred mineral resource” are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, they are not defined terms under standards in the United States and normally are not permitted to be used in reports and registration statements filed with the SEC. As such, information contained herein concerning descriptions of mineralization and resources under Canadian standards may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies in SEC filings.

Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. With respect to “indicated mineral resource” and “inferred mineral resource”, there is a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and a great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of a “measured mineral resource”, “indicated mineral resource” or “inferred mineral resource” will ever be upgraded to a higher category.

Accordingly, information herein containing descriptions of our mineral deposits may not be comparable to similar information made public by US companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements under US federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.
