Investors Presentation Summary30 Nov 2017 22:33
My notes are quite rough so excuse me if anything is unclear. Here are the key things I picked up from the presentation / Q&A:
- They stated that they are making a lot of progress and there is finally real momentum with a proper plan in place. They admit things have been slow in the past, but with the funding they have (from the prior 2 placings) they have accelerated their drilling programs. They emphasised that conditions they are working in are harsh and the location is very remote and that it takes time to drill but they are progressing faster now than they ever have before.
- It was highlighted that the potential discovery at M4 could be very significant - the target falls on the same fault line as M2 so they expect it could be similar. Currently they are half way through the drill on this site. I got the impression that they think this target could add a lot of value.
- They expect full results from the current drilling program of M2, M4 and Sharktooth to be released by the end of March if all goes well. They believe we will have 3 positive updates for us by then.
- The current program is fully funded from the placings earlier this year. They expect the funding will take them beyond the drill program and will allow them to conduct further drill work. They note that their overheads are very low and the majority of the spend is on the actual drilling.
- M1 - They are keen to make some early revenues here but they do not consider this to be their key target. They are happy to let Crownpoint get on with this and get a crushing mine in place to allow them to make some revenue. The cost to build this is not deemed that significant (in the 100k's). To get this going they would have to raise further funds however the focus for now is the current drill program.
- Emphasis was put on Sharktooth and that this is going to be very significant. They expect anywhere from 60m - 600m tonnes of copper here - they are extremely keen to prove this up. They want to continue exploring this beyond the current drill program once results are in.
- They appeared confident on the economic feasibility of the company. Considering they need to prove up roughly 20m to be viable, they have already proven up 16m - with M2 expecting 40m and Sharktooth 60-600m + the potential at M4, they are more than confident about their viability.
- Once resources are sufficiently proven up, they hope to pursue a joint venture with a bigger player that can really get things going. They emphasised that they want to maximise the shareholder value and prove up as much as possible before taking this route.
Overall it was a very positive and insightful evening and I have a lot more confidence that GWMO will deliver since attending.
Hope this is was useful to you guys.
