Summary
Moly Mines is searching for a new mining project to supplement the Spinifex Ridge Iron Ore Mine and to replace the Spinifex Ridge Molybdenum / Copper Project (Moly Project). The decision to defer the Moly Project was made in December 2011.
With approximately $72 million of net current assets on balance sheet at quarter end, which will be enhanced by the forecast production and cashflow performance from the Spinifex Ridge Iron Ore Mine, Moly Mines considers it has the financial standing to grow its asset base in a challenging equity markets environment.
Moly Mines hopes to identify and acquire mining projects including those that can be financed through the Chinese commercial banking process, drawing upon the relationship with the Hanlong Group and the Strategic Alliance between Moly Mines and China Development Bank (CDB). Hanlong have agreed to assist Moly Mines arrange new debt facilities and provide credit support to enhance the finance packages and minimize funding costs.
Moly Mines is currently assessing a number of significant opportunities in a variety of commodities and geographical locations.
