La firma con sede en Vancouver ha comenzado el proceso de venta formal de la mina Los Filos, dijo el presidente de la firma, David Garofalo, en una entrevista, y está estudiando opciones para su mina Alumbrera en Argentina y la operación Marlin en Guatemala.
“Los Filos, Marlin and Alumbrera are smaller scale mines. They don’t have the economies of scale that our existing five camps offer us” or that a newly acquired gold project, Coffee, “potentially offers us once it’s built out,” Garofalo said.

Azures Managing Director, Mr Tony Rovira commented: I am delighted with the progress we have made at the Alacrán and Promontorio Projects over the last quarter. Delivering the maiden resource at Mesa de Plata was a particular highlight, which allows us to progress toward assessing our various development strategies, and the results from our active drilling programs continue to demonstrate the huge potential of both projects.
Pete Dougherty, President & CEO stated: We are pleased with the outcome of the ruling, which confirms our belief that the local zoning plan should not have impeded the permitting of the San Antonio project. This ruling does not mean that our permits are granted but does provide the basis of understanding for all involved in the permitting process. We will continue to engage and work closely with all stakeholders to advance the San Antonio project. We believe that San Antonio provides an opportunity for a model mine with the use of clean technologies that also provides near and long-term benefits to the region.
The net proceeds of the Offering will be used to fund the exploration and development of the Company’s La Cigarra project in Mexico and for general working capital purposes.
“While lower production was expected in the second quarter, the decision to accelerate a significant organizational restructuring had a short-term, negative impact on gold production. With the decentralization of our business well underway and new mine management installed at the majority of our operations to reflect the new business model,Goldcorp is poised to deliver better gold production and cost performance,” said David Garofalo, Goldcorp President and CEO. “We continued to advance our robust project pipeline with the decision to proceed to construction with high rate of return expansions at our Peñasquito and Musselwhite mines.”
“The second quarter saw continued strong operating results from all of our mines coupled with record safety performance”, said Sean Boyd, Agnico Eagle’s Chief Executive Officer. “Given these strong results and a more robust gold price environment, we have significantly improved our financial position, while continuing to make important investments in several of our growth projects. In addition, we have raised our dividend signaling our confidence in our business and growth plan”, added Mr. Boyd.
The loan funding strategy being adopted in this significant financing avoids further equity dilution to Telsons current shareholders, seeking to give greater value to investors. states Antonio Berlanga, CEO and Director of the Company, Furthermore, the funds available to the Company in the LOC Agreement will allow us to make significant advancement towards the Companys goal of reaching commercial production at Tahuehueto and the LOC Agreement has the flexibility of full repayment without penalty, allowing the Company to potentially access new loans and/or future equity capital under more favorable market conditions.
