13th Aug 2009 07:00
Uruguay Mineral Exploration Inc. (UME), a South American focused gold production and exploration company, today reported results for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2009.
Highlights:
Production of 70,147 ounces at a cash cost of $US 705 per ounce compared to 90,668 ounces at a cash cost of $US 413 per ounce in the prior financial year. Loss after tax of $US 14.4 million for the year including a $US 2.7 million write down of exploration expenses. Base case mine plan has been updated to include 5.3 million tonnes of open pit ore processed over four years to deliver a total of 195,000 recovered ounces at an average cash cost per ounce of $US 700. Fiscal 2010 production is expected to be 60,000 recovered ounces. Initial resource for Arenal Deeps of 3,164,000 tonnes at 2.21 g/t for 224,000 ounces at a 1.5 g/t cut was independently estimated by Golder Associates S.A. ("Golder") in April 2009. Independent prefeasibility study prepared by Golder defines a reserve of 1,716,000 tonnes at 1.94 g/t for 107,206 contained ounces of gold. At a gold price of $US 740, and using a 10% discount rate, Arenal Deeps generates an internal rate of return of 41% and has a NPV of $US 7.7 million. Capital expenditures have been estimated at $US 5.8 million. The Arenal Deeps study does not consider higher grade drill results, from holes completed since the infill and extension drilling commenced in May 2009, which are likely to considerably improve project economics. Cash on hand of $US 9.5 million with a net working capital balance of $US 22.8 million and no debt.David Fowler, Chief Executive Officer commented: "Fiscal 2009 has been a challenging year, where we have had to work hard to adjust our mine plan as a result of a shortfall in high grade ore from the Arenal pit. Despite these efforts which accounted for over 50% of the deficit, we fell well short of our original production target of 80,000 ounces delivering 70,147 ounces during the year. Although this shortfall in production resulted in a $US11.6 million loss before exploration write downs, we closed the year with a cash position of $US9.5 million - at the higher end of our $US8 to $US10 million target range, with no debt and in excess of $US22 million in net working capital. We look forward to achieving or exceeding our 2010 production target of 60,000 ounces."
"The Arenal Deeps prefeasibility study concludes that UME will be able to generate high returns from underground mining at Arenal at a long tern average gold price of $US 740 per ounce. The prefeasibility study does not consider higher grade drill results from holes completed since the infill and extension drilling commenced in May 2009, which are likely to considerably improve project economics. With underground ore expected to make a contribution to production within two years, we expect to extend mine life and maintain production levels at 60,000 ounces per annum. These results also reinforce the potential for additional underground resource discoveries within the San Gregorio district", closed Mr. Fowler.

Production and Costs
Gold production for the fiscal year was 70,147 ounces, 12.3% lower than UME's original target of 80,000 ounces and its revised target range of 72,000 to 75,000 ounces. This was the result of a 22,190 ounce shortfall of high grade ore from the Arenal open pit that affected production in all quarters. This was due to a negative reconciliation to the geological model in the western portion of the pit where significant and unexpected variability of mineralization was encountered. The shortfall was partially offset by production of 12,178 ounces from alternative sources at Veta Sur and Zapucay that were not included in the original mine plan and were rapidly developed and mined to compensate for the decline at Arenal. Over the course of the year all ore sources other than Arenal produced in accordance with or above plan. The San Gregorio pit had a shortfall in production in the fourth quarter which affected final production for the full year, but performed to expectations over the fiscal year with higher production in earlier quarters.
The average cash cost for the year was $US 705, compared to $US 413 in fiscal 2008, reflecting lower production levels and increases in consumable costs. Cash costs for the final quarter were above expectations due to lower production than planned for the quarter. To compensate for the lower production and higher consumable prices, in the second half of the year UME implemented a company-wide cost reduction program, including a 20% reduction in the workforce, elimination of discretionary expenses and re-negotiation of supplier contracts. UME remains committed to continue adjusting its overall structure to current and future levels of production and is implementing additional reductions in Q1 of 2010. Additional information on cost increases is provided in the Company's MD&A dated August 11, 2009.

Financial Performance
UME reported a net loss after tax for the financial year ended May 31, 2009 of $US 14.4 million or a basic loss of $US 0.29 per share. This result included a write down of $US 2.7 million on exploration expenditure. The loss for the year is explained by the shortfall in production at the Arenal open pit, which resulted in a significant loss of revenue without any cost reduction.
Operational cash flows for the year were $US 7.0 million. Capital expenditures during the year included $US 10.1 million in exploration and $US 5.5 million in property, plant and equipment. Investment in exploration included $US 6.1 million in exploration activities near the mine and in the Isla Cristalina Belt, including Arenal Deeps drilling, and $US 2.3 million in other gold projects in Southern Uruguay, including the Florida, Don Feliciano and Arroyo Grande belts, and $US 1.2 million on Lascano. Investment in property, plant and equipment included a final payment of $US 2.1 million on the convertible note associated with the repurchase of the Arenal net profit interest royalty.
The Company's cash position at the end of the financial year was $US 9.5 million, in accordance with the projected range of $US 8 to 10 million. Higher gold prices, cost reductions and other initiatives implemented in the second half of the fiscal year offset the reduction in production. In addition, the Company remains practically debt-free with total debt at the end of the year of $US 37,000 compared to $US 2.3 million at the end of the prior fiscal year.
SAN GREGORIO NEAR MINE EXPLORATION
UME invested a total of $US 6.1 million in near mine exploration during fiscal 2009 with the objective of building on its production profile at the San Gregorio operation. This exploration program focused on four key target types:
Smaller open pit vein deposits: Approximately 20,000 ounces of open pit vein resources were defined at Castrillon, Polvorin and Veta Sur. Polvorin and part of Veta Sur were mined during the year, while Castrillon was added to the mine plan for future years. Recent discoveries at Picaflor and Peru have yet to be quantified, but it is anticipated that these will also convert into future vein-type reserves. Incremental improvement of existing resources: Resource definition drilling at Santa Teresa demonstrated its structural complexity and, although its reserve has reduced, the current geological model has a higher level of confidence. At Zapucay additional drilling identified a new 5,000 ounce resource to the South. Bulk open pit deposits: Three areas with strong surface geochemical anomalies within a prospective structural setting were developed over a four kilometre corridor east of Arenal. These areas were drilled in the second half of the fiscal year to test for bulk open pit targets. While a number of anomalous intercepts were reported, no new ore bodies were discovered. Additional targets are still to be tested in the Rincon area and new targets are being developed from an ongoing near mine generative programme. Underground deposits along the San Gregorio trend: Our objective was to establish an economic resource of sufficient volume to support the introduction of underground mining. During the year, UME completed an exploration drill program in Arenal Deeps, the down dip extension of the Arenal deposit. An independent measured and indicated resource of 3,164,000 tonnes at 2.21 g/t for 224,000 ounces at a 1.5 g/t cut was estimated by Golder in April 2009. Infill and extension drilling commenced in May 2009 with 10 holes completed through early August 2009. These holes have confirmed or improved the grade of the resource model with holes ALDD103 and ALDD108 containing 16.1 meters with 10.3 g/t and 26.2 meters with 13.76 g/t, respectively. A positive prefeasibility report completed by Golder in August 2009 is expected to improve considerably with the drilling completed subsequent to the April 2009 measured and indicated resource on which the prefeasibility study was based. The infill drilling program will continue through to January 2010, with resource modeling planned to begin in February 2010 and a final feasibility study expected to be completed in June 2010.Near mine exploration in 2010 will focus on further defining and expanding the Arenal Deeps resource and has a second objective of adding 20,000 ounces, from veins and improvement of existing resources to the mine plan in 2011 and beyond. Additional near mine bulk open pit targets are also expected to be defined for drilling in 2010.
The definition of an economic resource at Arenal will open up the San Gregorio district for additional underground discoveries at San Gregorio, Ombú and Nueva Australia.
SAN GREGORIO DEVELOPMENT
The Company's current mine plan processes 5.3 million tonnes of open pit ore over four years starting June 1, 2009 to deliver a total of 195,000 recovered ounces of gold. The plan assumes a gold price of $US 850 per ounce over the next two years, falling to a longer term price of $US 750. It estimates an average cash cost of production of $US 700 per ounce over the period. Bulk higher cost ounces are expected to be produced from San Gregorio and Santa Teresa, while higher grade lower cost ounces are expected from Zapucay, Ombú, Castrillón and other Veta sources.
Additional drilling and geological re-interpretation is planned for San Gregorio to investigate the potential increase grade and tonnes while reducing cash costs. Veta Sur and other vein sources are also being reviewed, following drilling over the past six months, to potentially add additional high grade ounces to the mine plan.
The Arenal Deeps prefeasibility study prepared by Golder and announced on August 4, 2009 defines a reserve of 1,716,000 tonnes at 1.94 g/t for 107,206 contained ounces of gold. At a gold price of $US 740, Arenal Deeps generates an internal rate of return of 41%. Using a 10% discount rate, it has a NPV of $US 7.7 million. Capital expenditures have been estimated at $US 5.8 million. With infill and extension drilling improving the grade of the resource and a number of issues still to be considered during feasibility, we expect a considerable improvement in project economics.
During 2010 UME will seek opportunities to accelerate the timing of full production thus providing early ore from isolated ore bodies directly beneath the pit. By combining open pit and underground ore, the Company expects to define a five plus year mine plan with a production profile of 60,000 ounces per annum. This production profile could increase if additional underground ore sources were to be developed or other open pit discoveries are made.
As discussed in the past, the Company continues to review processing alternatives to improve production levels and extend the mine life. A change in configuration to the secondary crushing circuit from two stage to a one stage crushing, implemented towards the end of the year, has delivered a 5% increase in process plant throughput without requiring further capital expenditure. UME is also in the process of setting up a small metallurgical test facility that is expected to improve the turnaround time on test work and reduce costs on metallurgical testing for new deposits.
Historical drill results for the Mahoma property in South West Uruguay were reviewed in the fourth fiscal quarter. These historical drill holes show a number of vein sets with an average grade of 8 g/t over 1 meter wide true thickness. Access to the property is expected to be granted in the first half of fiscal 2010 and drilling is planned for later in fiscal 2010 with the objective of establishing an underground resource that could be transported to the San Gregorio mine. Drilling to-date at other projects in Southern Uruguay has not identified high grade resources that could be mined and directly transported to San Gregorio. Test work to evaluate the potential to upgrade mineralisation at Cruzera and Presidente Terra prior to being transported will be considered during fiscal 2010.
GROWTH
Exploration for a new stand alone gold deposit within Uruguay has been the major focus of growth initiatives over the past two years.
Following a year of intensive target definition in 2008, five projects were first pass drill tested in fiscal 2009. New targets were also defined at Rocha and Texas which are yet to be drill tested. Targets have also been defined in the eastern end of the Isla Cristalina Belt at Vichadero, Curtume and Vaca Muerta.
The Presidente Terra, Casupa, Paso de Lugo, Nueva Helvecia and Lascano projects were drill tested in 2009. While drilling at these projects intercepted conceptual targets and anomalous mineralisation in the majority of the holes drilled, the consistency of grade and thickness encountered was not sufficient to indicate the potential for a 500,000 ounce resource. During fiscal 2011, the Company expects to undertake additional final work on Presidente Terra, Casupa and Paso de Lugo. This will consist of step out drilling on the better intercepts and new anomalous areas that have not yet been tested.
The majority of UME's exploration investment for fiscal 2010 is expected to be focused near the San Gregorio operation. First pass drill testing of about 1,500 meters is also expected to be completed on each of the Texas and Rocha projects.
The four offset holes at Lascano continued to intersect hydrothermal alteration and very weak sulphide mineralisation. After completing these holes we decided to look for a joint venture partner. While there has been interest in Lascano, a suitable farm in arrangement has not yet been concluded. UME believes that further research is required and its funding a PHD study to further define the economic significance of the geology. Based on the results of this study consideration will then be given to funding further exploration targeting the defined deposit style.
In considering corporate transactions and acquisitions outside of Uruguay, the Company has focused on assets with near term production potential and a minimum established resource of 500,000 ounces with potential to grow. In the final analysis, it did not proceed with a number of transactions as they did not meet the established criteria, did not reflect its view of value or were overly complex.
UME is very pleased to have partnered with Olivut Resources and its strong diamond exploration team to progress the Cinco Rios Diamond project. Exploration is expected to commence in the first half of calendar 2010.
OUTLOOK
The Company's forecast production for fiscal 2010 is 60,000 ounces at an average cash cost of $US 700 per ounce. Production for the first fiscal quarter is expected to be in the range of 13,500 to 14,500 ounces.
UME expects to close the 2010 financial year with a cash balance of $US10 million assuming a $US 850 gold price. However, production and therefore cash are expected to vary from quarter to quarter reflecting the fact that operations combine several pits at different stages of stripping and grades.
In order to maintain and generate cash, and given the anticipated decrease in production volume, the Company expects to continue to reduce costs and working capital with priority for exploration expenditure given to near mine projects
