Tulla has taken over the running of its mine in Western Australia and will lend A$10 million (£6.8 million) to the gold group.  Tulla will be issued A$10 million of convertible loan notes with a coupon of 10 per cent and that convert at 6p per share.

The miner had also said it was raising a further A$3 million (£2 million) through a placing of 50 million shares at 6 cents apiece.

The group told investors today it has lodged a secondary trading prospectus with the Australian Securities Exchange which is required to allow the trading of the shares to be issued.

Norseman has also sent a notice to shareholders convening a special meeting for March 30, where it will seek approval for the fundraising and the agreement with Tulla.

Norseman said in December it was in talks with a potential partner.

Tulla is an Australian resources company and the family vehicle of the Maloney family, which previously ran MAC Services, a supplier of mining accommodation facilities that was sold to Oil States International for A$650 million.

Tulla has investments in TSX listed THEMAC Resources, which owns 100 per cent of the Copper Flat project, a porphyry copper-molybdenum-gold-silver project in south-central New Mexico; ASX listed Altona Mining, a copper miner in Finland and ASX listed Queensland Mining.

Norseman Gold‘s (LON:NGL, ASX:NGL) new partner Tulla Resources has already assumed operational control of the Norseman mine in Australia and has started to re-organise its operations. 

The restructuring process is aimed at lowering operating costs and returning Norseman Gold to a consistent 100,000 ounce producer within two years.

Tulla’s plan is also to increase the current resource of 3.4 million ounces of gold at an average grade of 4.7 g/t through mine and regional exploration.

Norseman produced 22,289 ounces of gold in the six months to December, which generated a loss after tax of A$41.8 million after an A$18 million write-down for the mine. 

Interim revenues rose 8 per cent to A$32.4 million. The average gold price achieved during the six months period was A$1,607 per ounce.

Under the agreement with Tulla, which is the vehicle of Australian mining entrepreneur Kevin Maloney, it will subscribe for A$10 million of convertible loan notes in Norseman Gold.

Norseman, which raised A$3 million (£2 million) for working capital through a placing at 6c, will keep control of the mine and equipment.

Tulla Resources is to carry out a more detailed review of all aspects of the operations at Norseman, which is Australia’s oldest producing gold mine, including all four mines as part of a comprehensive forward 3 year mine plan and a growth strategy.

Bullen and OK Decline, two of the four operations at the Norseman mine have already been placed on care and maintenance.

Back in December, the group revealed that it was in negotiations with a potential strategic partner, which was looking to take an active role in the development of the group.

This potential partner has experience in operating at Norseman, particularly the Harlequin and Bullen mines, and understands the ore bodies and their potential.

Norseman’s main project is the Norseman mine in Western Australia. At the end of 2011, the company reported that it had reached the targeted hard rock ore at the North Royal open pit, enabling more ore to be added to the overall treatment plant feed.

This should result in an increase in the ounces produced as more tonnes will be able to be treated.

With a direct focus on cost, the company has decided to suspend mining at the OK Decline to reduce expenditure and focus on the areas of the mine that are performing and/or producing profitable ounces.

A detailed review of both the Bullen and Harlequin underground mines and how production and profitability at these mines can be improved is also ongoing with an update expected this year.

The progress report on the Bullen and Harlequin review will also include guidance on gold production for the full year.

At the end of January, the company requested and was granted a trading halt and later voluntary suspension on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX), pending an update on its operations and corporate restructuring.

Following the trading halt announcement on January 30, shares in Norseman rallied from around 5.5 pence to Friday’s close of 7.08 pence. This morning, Norseman tacked on a further 4.5 percent to trade at 7.4 pence, valuing the group at £26.5 million.
