ANACONDA MINING Intersects 59.39 G/t Gold Over 7.0 Metres And 6.17 G/t Over 8.0 Metres at Argyle; Provides Infill Drilling and Development Update

TORONTO , March 1, 2019 /CNW/ – Anaconda Mining Inc. (“Anaconda” or the “Company”) – (ANX.TO) is pleased to provide an update on the exploration and development activities at the Argyle Deposit (“Argyle”), located approximately 4.5 kilometres from the Company’s operating Pine Cove Mill and tailings facility at the Point Rousse Project in Newfoundland (See Exhibit A). Since announcing the Argyle Mineral Resource Estimate on January 8, 2018 , Anaconda has completed an internal project evaluation and engineering that has led to development of an optimized pit shell and a cash flow positive mining plan. It has also initiated the permitting process, conducted infill drilling and successfully identified high-grade, wide intersections of mineralization immediately adjacent to the known Mineral Resource. In addition, the Company has discovered another area of very high-grade mineralization associated with visible gold approximately 800 metres from the main Argyle Deposit. Anaconda expects Argyle to contribute to the production profile at Point Rousse in the third quarter 2019 and anticipates expanding the known Mineral Resources in the area.

“We are progressing toward production at Argyle and expect the deposit to be incorporated into our mine plans in Q3 of 2019.  Preliminary permits have been received and we will finalize mine planning following a resource update in May, which will include the additional drilling completed since the last Mineral Resource Estimate as well as our current infill drilling. As we move Argyle into production this year we will also follow up on the high-grade visible gold encountered in hole AE-18-83 which is one of the best intersections of gold within the Point Rousse Project to date.”
~ Dustin Angelo , President and CEO

In addition, to better align the long-term incentive plans of directors, officers, and employees with Anaconda’s shareholders, the Company’s Board of Directors has approved the adoption of a Share Unit Plan, subject to approval of the shareholders of the Company at the upcoming Annual General and Special Meeting and made certain grants under the Plan as part of year-end performance reviews and director compensation. Please see below for further details.

Argyle Exploration Program

The Company has completed an exploration program consisting of 2,810 metres of diamond drilling in 22 holes approximately 250 metres to 1,250 metres northeast of the Argyle Deposit (“Argyle Exploration Program”). The Argyle Exploration Program targeted an area that exhibited anomalous ground IP and soil geochemical characteristics as well as surface alteration and favourable geology similar to the Argyle Deposit area. Drill hole AE-18-83 intersected two occurrences of visible gold coincident with composited assays of 59.39 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold over 7.0 metres (32.0 to 39.0 metres) including 413.90 g/t over 1 metre and 6.21 g/t gold over 2.0 metres (96.0 to 98.0 metres) (Exhibit A). These intersections are associated with an alteration system similar in character to the Argyle and Stog’er Tight Deposits. The alteration system extends for 250 metres as identified in core by eight drill holes completed during the Argyle Exploration Program; however, Hole AE-18-83 was the only one to return significant mineralization. To better understand the controlling structures associated with the two high-grade gold occurrences, Anaconda is planning a trenching program and further drilling during the spring of 2019.

No significant gold mineralization was encountered in the remainder of the alteration system northeast of Argyle. A portion of the anomalies encountered were associated with an iron stone formation as well as a certain stratigraphy that is typically not mineralized.

Argyle Deposit Infill Drilling

The Company is conducting an infill drill program at Argyle (“Argyle Infill Program”) to better define portions of the deposit planned for development in 2019. The initial results from the western portion of the Argyle Deposit comprise 12 holes totaling 525 metres of diamond drilling, which intersected mineralization as outlined in the existing Mineral Resource. Mineralization intersected in holes AE-18-98 to AE-19-109 is approximately the same thickness of previous drilling in this area but with grades approximately 25% greater than previous drilling in this area of the deposit. Highlights from the western portion of the Argyle Infill Program include:

  • 6.17 g/t gold over 8 .0 metres (3.0 to 11.0 metres) in hole AE-19-107;
  • 2.32 g/t gold over 7.0 metres (8.0 to 15.0 metres) in hole AE-18-98; and
  • 1.15 g/t gold over 8.0 metres (3.0 to 11.0 metres) in hole AE-18-100.

Anaconda is currently drilling additional infill holes on the eastern portion of the Argyle Deposit. These results will be released at a later date.

Upon completion of the Argyle Infill Program, the Company will create an updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the Argyle Deposit to confirm pit extents and begin mining. This resource will also include drill holes reported on March 22, 2018 (the “2018 Holes”) which intersected mineralization outside of the current Mineral Resource and expanded the deposit. Highlights from the 2018 Holes include:

  • 7.87 g/t gold over 7.0 metres (44.0 – 51.0 metres) in hole AE-18-74; and
  • 12.47 g/t gold over 5.0 metres (54.5 – 59.5 metres) in hole AE-17-58.

A table of selected intersections from both exploration and infill drilling programs are shown in the table below.

Argyle Development

The Argyle project was released from environmental assessment in November of 2018. The Company has submitted a Development Plan and is finalizing a Rehabilitation and Closure plan to be submitted to the Ministry of Natural Resources by the end of Q1 2019. Once Anaconda receives approval of the Development, Rehabilitation and Closure plans, it will be ready to begin mine development and site construction, which is expected to be by the summer 2019 with ore production commencing in the third quarter.

CHRIS MARCUS Tesla – The Next Enron?

 

Tesla – The Next Enron?
As the Austrian economists have long pointed out, one of the things that commonly happens during periods of credit expansion is that the easy money leads to malinvestment. Which is usually revealed later on when the credit is removed and the excesses are exposed.
Of which there is growing evidence that Tesla may turn out to fit this profile. To the degree that some analysts are suggesting it might even be the next Enron.
Certainly one of the challenges in today’s financial markets (and perhaps this has always been the case) is not just in analyzing the numbers. But also in evaluating the integrity of the numbers. Because remember that the Enron numbers looked great. Except that they were never real.
And now as Tesla approaches a key financial event where its $920 million dollar bond payment is coming due, not only is there uncertainty as to how CEO Elon Musk is going to make that payment, but also increasing concerns around his actions and the veracity of the financial data the company provides.
In an interview with Tesla analyst Dave Kranzler of Investment Research Dynamics, Kranzler pointed out how not only did Musk break the law in sending his “420 secured” tweet, but that “Tesla’s Q3 GAAP “Net Income” numbers are highly misleading, if not outright fraudulent”.
Aside from concerns about the quality of the financial statements, Mark Tepper, president and CEO of Strategic Wealth Partners mentions how “there are stories of people not getting their vehicles, and then not getting their refunds for months.” While another concern being echoed among Tesla bears is in regards to the company’s growing reputation for being unable to deliver on the promises Musk makes.
“He hasn’t hit on any target or deliverable with any sort of reliability for years now. Why should I believe him now? Remember in 2016 when he said they’d be profitable and didn’t need any more money? Or when they said that in 2017? He’ll probably be saying the same thing at the bankruptcy hearing.”
-Harris Kupperman of Praetorian Capital
In addition to the red flags surrounding management is the latest news that January sales are down significantly, as the tax incentives have begun phasing out.

(chart courtesy of @teslashcarts)
Which makes it even more interesting to see what will happen in the next few days as the bond payment comes due. Especially with Musk creating a new round of suspense on Wednesday with a tweet that “some Tesla news” will be delivered on Thursday.
So if Musk is going to convince investors that the company is on solid footing, under good management, and that the data is accurate, he has some work to do. Because simply based on the events of the past year, as well as growing skepticism in the investment community, the possibility that Tesla will be exposed as an Enron is becoming a more real view in the marketplace.
To date the company has been able to navigate these issues. Yet especially if the Fed were to ever remove the unprecedented amount of credit it has injected into the system over the past decade, if the concerns regarding Tesla are indeed accurate, it may well in time rival Enron as one of the biggest financial scandals in history.

JERICHO OIL Announces 33% 2018 Total Production Growth

Company Production Hits an All-Time Yearly Record, Reduced Operating Expenses by 30%

TULSA, Okla., Feb. 28, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Jericho Oil Corporation (“Jericho”) (TSX-V: JCO; OTC PINK: JROOF) announces that preliminary 2018 full-year partnership production totaled approximately 297,000 barrels of oil equivalent (“BOE”) up 33% from 2017 full-year partnership production of 222,000 BOE. The Company’s 2018 partnership production is an all-time yearly high.

In addition to record production, the Company continued to drive down production operating expenses with an approximately $17.00 / BOE cost in 2018, a reduction of 30% from the last year. A combination of lower absolute expenses and efficient production growth from our STACK asset produced outstanding per unit results for Jericho shareholders further demonstrating the dedication of our team and the quality of our world-class STACK asset.

In 2019, Jericho is committed to maintaining balance sheet and capital spend flexibility (with low leverage and a prudent hedging program), allocating capital based on strategic and rate-of-return metrics, prioritizing the Company’s high-return STACK asset and potential acquisition opportunities near our concentrated position. A continued improvement in commodity prices through the remainder of Q1 2019 will see Jericho move back into a development mode and also accelerate its return to production program for shut-in wells in its existing fields.

Industry activity has focused on the low-cost, high-return Osage and Meramec formations within the STACK play of Oklahoma. Deep-pocketed public operators including ExxonMobil, Chesapeake Energy, Sandridge Energy and Chaparral Energy continue to put considerable capital resources in and around Jericho’s largely held-by-production STACK acreage position. To-date, the Company has participated in multiple successful STACK wells with many of our offset operators, gleaning valuable information that drives our confidence in the underlying value of our investment.

“These outstanding and record results confirm our 2018 strategy to successfully prove and develop our premier STACK acreage position,” stated Brian Williamson, CEO of Jericho Oil, adding, “the resulting production growth provides our shareholders confidence in the exceptional quality of our high-impact STACK resource. Looking forward to 2019, we are excited in our unique ability to drive further competitive performance through the quality of our investments and our capital and operating discipline. While we are pleased with our 2018 results, we were just starting to see our patience be rewarded as we began to drill our STACK asset, return existing shut-in wells to production and move to develop some of our other high potential assets when oil prices turned down 40% in the end of 2018. We are hopeful that oil prices will continue their upward trend and provide us the opportunity to expand upon 2018’s success.”

In addition to Jericho’s steady base of low-decline production, its STACK JV has an interest in four currently producing Osage and Meramec formation wells.

Jericho also announces that effective March 1, 2019, Brian Williamson, CEO, assumes the additional position of President and Ben Holman, CFO, assumes the additional position of Secretary. The roles of President and Secretary were previously held by Allen Wilson, Jericho’s founder, who continues with the Company as a director, consultant and shareholder.

About Jericho Oil Corporation
Jericho Oil (www.jerichooil.com) is focused on domestic, liquids-rich unconventional resource plays, located primarily in the Anadarko basin STACK Play of Oklahoma. Jericho’s primary business objective is driving long-term shareholder value through the growth of oil and gas production, cash flow and reserves. Jericho has assembled an interest in 55,000 net acres across Oklahoma, including an interest in ~16,000 net acres in the STACK Play. Jericho owns a 26.5% interest in STACK JV.
Jericho’s current operations are focused on the oil-prone Meramec and Osage formations in the STACK. The Jericho team applies advanced engineering analyses and enhanced geological techniques to under-developed resource areas.
Jericho, with operational headquarters in Tulsa, Oklahoma, trades publicly on the TSX Venture Exchange (JCO) and OTC Markets (JROOF). Jericho owns its net acre position in Oklahoma through, and participates in the STACK JV through, one or more wholly owned subsidiaries.

There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Important factors that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from Jericho’s expectations include risks related to the exploration stage of Jericho’s project; market fluctuations in prices for securities of exploration stage companies; and uncertainties about the availability of additional financing.

About Pacton Gold

Pacton Gold is a Canadian exploration company with key strategic partners focused on the exploration and development of high grade conglomerate and orogenic gold properties located in the district-scale Pilbara gold rush in Western Australia and the Red Lake District, Ontario.  Pacton’s Red Lake mineral claims are strategically located between Pure Gold’s Madsen property, including the Wedge Zone, and Great Bear Resource’s Dixie discovery. The property geology is made up of two key packages known to host significant gold mineralization in the district. The Confederation

Assemblage and the Balmer Assemblage hosts the high-grade gold mineralization at Great Bear Resources’ Dixie Project and Pure Gold’s Madsen property, respectively. A high-resolution helicopter magnetics survey is underway to identify D2 structures and folding that are proposed to have significant control on gold mineralization in the district.
