GLOBEX MINING ENTERPRISES INC. (GMX – Toronto Stock
Exchange, G1MN – Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Berlin, Munich,
Tradegate, Lang & Schwarz, LS Exchange, TTMzero,
Düsseldorf and Quotrix Düsseldorf Stock
Exchanges and GLBXF – OTCQX
International in the US). Further to Globex’s note in
our December 27, 2024, press release, Lincoln Gold Mining Inc.
(LMG-TSXV) have announced that they have closed the previously
announced acquisition of the Bell Mountain Project in Churchill
County, Nevada from Eros Resources Corp. Lincoln have also stated
that they are in discussions with various financial institutions
for the capital required to take Bell Mountain to complete
construction (click to see Lincoln’s press release here).
Globex holds a scaling royalty based on Gold Price in US$ as
follows:
Gold Price (US$) |
Globex Gross Metal Royalty on all Mineral Products in %
Payable |
0 to $500 |
1% |
> $500 but <$1,200 |
2% |
>$1,200 |
3% |
|
|
Globex also receives annual advance royalty
payments of $20,000. Lincoln expects it will take approximately 8
to 10 months to complete construction once funding has been
arranged and then expects to move into the initial gold/silver
mineralization placement and leaching process.
Filing PEA on Bell Mountain
Project
The Company also reports on the filing of an
independent technical report in accordance with National Instrument
43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI
43-101”) on the Project. The Technical Report, titled “NI
43-101 Technical Report on the Bell Mountain Project, Updated
Preliminary Economic Assessment, Churchill County, Nevada, USA”
dated January 6, 2025 (effective date of July 23, 2024) (the
“PEA”) was completed by John D. Welsh, PE; Douglas
W. Willis, CPG; Randall K. Martin, SME-RM; and Carl C. Nesbitt,
SME-RM, and is available on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca) under
Lincoln’s issuer profile.
The PEA describes how the process works and how
gold is produced in a heap leach operation. The economic base case
is considered realistic and shows a robust cash flow. A gold price
of $2,200/oz and a silver price of $24.00/oz were chosen for the
base case economic evaluation. Up to date capital and operating
costs were used.
The following table has been taken from the
PEA:

NPV @ 5% Discount Rate (US$M) |

- Internal Rate of Return ("IRR") is a metric used in
financial analysis to estimate the profitability of potential
investments. IRR is a discount rate that makes the net present
value ("NPV") of all cash flows equal to zero in a discounted cash
flow analysis. IRR calculations rely on the same formula as NPV
does. IRR is not the actual dollar value of the project; it is the
annual return that makes the NPV equal to zero. Generally speaking,
the higher an internal rate of return, the more desirable an
investment is to undertake.
Paul Saxton, President and CEO stated. “This
milestone allows Lincoln to proceed to acquire the funding
necessary to complete the design details and the start of
construction at the Bell Mountain. Much of the detail design work
has been completed already. In addition, we plan on continuing the
permitting at Pine Grove and carrying on with exploration on both
properties, especially around the four defined deposits at Bell
Mountain.”
The PEA is preliminary in nature. It includes
inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative
geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them
that would enable them to be characterized as mineral reserves, and
there is no certainty that the PEA will be realized. The current
basis of project information is not sufficient to convert the
mineral resources to mineral reserves. Mineral resources that are
not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic
viability.
A technical economic model has been developed on
an annual basis to assess the economic potential of the Project.
The basis for the PEA is to demonstrate the economic potential of
the Project. The PEA results are intended as a review of the
potential Project economics based on preliminary information.
