True Gold signs $10 million equipment finance facility

Publié le 12 janvier 2016

VANCOUVER, B.C. - True Gold Mining Inc. (TSX-V: TGM) ('True Gold' or the 'Company') is pleased to announce the Company has entered into an equipment refinancing facility with Auramet International LLC ('Auramet') for $10 million (all dollar amounts in US dollars).

'Having supportive shareholders and strong finance providers like Franco-Nevada Corporation and Sandstorm Gold Ltd. has been crucial to True Gold's success. We are pleased to add Auramet as another strong partner. This financing provides an alternative to drawing all of the $20 million increase option from the stream finance providers and also provides an additional and flexible source of capital as we move to production,' stated Christian Milau, President & CEO of True Gold. 'This fixed cost equipment loan gives us flexibility to draw funds that can be used for non-project spending, including exploration. There are no costs for repaying the loan early and it provides an added start-up contingency while retaining the upside leverage to gold. We remain on schedule and budget at Karma with first gold pour anticipated in March 2016.'

Highlights of the equipment finance facility:

  • Amount: $10 million
  • Term: January 2016 to June 30, 2017, with early repayment option
  • Interest: LIBOR + 9.75%
  • Refined commitment: 200,000 gold ounces at fixed $5/ounce discount to spot gold price
  • Security: Mobile equipment and parent company guarantee

$6 million dollars are available for drawdown on closing and the remaining $4 million dollars upon announcement of commercial production of the Karma Mine. The number of ounces at the fixed $5 per ounce discount to the gold price will be prorated to the total amount of the $10 million drawn. The facility is flexible with no restrictive financial covenants or hedging requirements, no penalty on early repayment, and is repaid over 16 months, starting in March 2016. Drawdown of the facility is subject to standard closing conditions for a transaction of this nature.

Auramet is a global physical precious metals merchant that provides a full range of services to participants in the precious metals sector, including buying precious metals from mining and recycling companies, providing revenue enhancement strategies, price protection programs, prepayment and other financings, and advisory services.
