Orosur Mining CFO Ignacio Salazar ups shareholding
Orosur Mining’s (LON:OMI, TSX-V:OMI) chief financial officer Ignacio Salazar has bought 50,000 shares in the company for C$0.395 each.
Salazar now has an interest in 80,000 shares, which represents 0.12% of the company.
So far September has been a strong month for Orosur, with the company achieving significant development milestones.
Last week, the company revealed its feasibility study for its Arenal Deeps gold-silver project in Uruguay, which supported a six year mine life with an IRR (internal rate of return) of 32.3%.
The price assumption for the study was US$1,000/oz, which is 20% less than the current spot price of US$1,250/oz.
Total cash costs have been estimated at US$545/oz, while total life of mine capital and operating costs were put at US$24.7 million and US$73.4 million respectively. Net present value (NPV) with a 7% discount amounted to US$16.4 million.
Payable gold has been estimated at 135,000 oz.
“This feasibility study for Arenal Deeps is an important step for the company in our objective to extend the San Gregorio mine life in Uruguay while maintaining production levels at approximately 50-60,000 ounces of gold per annum," said chief executive David Fowler.
“The initial investment in capital and skills will also allow additional underground reserves to be targeted at San Gregorio to further extend mine life.”
Previously, on 1 September, Orosur reported a 1.04 million ounce (Moz) maiden NI43-101 gold resource for the Pantanillo Norte deposit in Chile.
In the Measured and Indicated category, Pantanillo Norte has 1,049,071 ounces, with 47,093,000 tonnes grading 0.69 grams per tonne (g/t). There is also 5,166 ounces in the Inferred category, with 304,000 tonnes at 0.53g/t gold.
