NWM Announces Further Debt Extension to December 31, 2014; Provides Financing and Financial Update
The September 31, 2014 financial statements and Management Discussion and Analysis have been filed on SEDAR. Net loss for the third quarter was $1,239,921 as compared to a net loss of $1,684,385 before tax in the comparative quarter in the prior year. Excluding non-cash items overall NWM corporate operations for the quarter were a loss of $306,012. At the mine level operations produced a gross profit (excluding non-cash items) of $1,064,257. During the third quarter 607,710 tonnes of ore were mined containing approximately 7,565 ounces of gold. The mine produced 4,743 gold ounces in the quarter.
Gold production in the current quarter has been negatively impacted by the historic rainfall received in the Pacific northwest area during the fall of 2014. The mine site received in excess of 400mm of rainfall which exceeds levels normally achieved over a full calendar year. The impact of the rains included the significant dilution of gold leach solutions which limited the amount of gold that could be recovered in the Lluvia de Oro processing facility. As a result of the rainfall, some of the Company's primary sources of gold mineralization were and remain inaccessible for mining operations. The Company's operating team has performed exceptionally to try and minimize the impact to the project.
About NWM Mining Corporation
NWM is in commercial gold production at its wholly owned Lluvia-Jojoba gold mine. The mine is an open pit heap leach operation in Sonora State, Mexico. Management believes the property is significantly under-explored and hosts potential to provide further gold discoveries and resource and reserve upgrades. While management has focused in the past on developing the mine and supporting cash flows, this has now shifted to increasing mining rates and drilling to expand geological resources and reserves.
