11.11.2011  |  Marketwired
VANCOUVER -- 11/10/11 -- Oracle Mining Corporation ('Oracle Mining' or the 'Corporation') (TSX VENTURE: OMN) (OTCQX: OMCCF) (PINK SHEETS: OMCCF) announces that the Corporation has filed its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2011. This media release should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and notes thereto for the quarter ended September 30, 2011, and the management's discussion & analysis ('MD&A') for the quarter ended September 30, 2011, both available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

All financial information for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 is prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRS') and reported in United States dollars unless otherwise noted, including this media release. Please refer to Note 2 and Note 16 of the September 30, 2011 unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for information.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2011, there were several significant advancements made at the Oracle Ridge Copper Mine project, where the Corporation is simultaneously drilling, permitting and designing a processing plant and tailings impoundment to return the mine into production.

During the quarter, the Corporation completed a name change from Gold Hawk Resources Inc. to Oracle Mining Corp. and commenced trading on the OTCQX trading platform in the United States. In addition, Oracle Mining issued additional assay results from the drilling program underway ('Oracle Mining intercepts more high-grade copper at Oracle Ridge', October 19, 2011) that included extensions to existing mineralization zones and discovery of new mineralization zones. Offset drilling to further delineate mineralization continued with a validation drilling program during the quarter. More detail on the progress made on these programs during the third quarter is available in the MD&A.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2011, the Corporation had a net loss of $3.2 million compared to net income of $1.7 million in the 2010 comparative period. Net income in the comparative period was primarily driven by gains of $2.6 million arising from the sale of investments. Net loss in the current period is primarily due to exploration and evaluation expenditures at the Oracle Ridge copper project. The current loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 consisted of general and administrative expenses of $1.3 million (2010 - $0.6 million) and $2.3 million in exploration and evaluation expenditures (2010 - $Nil).

As at September 30, 2011, total assets were $35.8 million compared to $46.5 million as at December 31, 2010. The difference resulted from increased expenditures relating to the ongoing development of the Oracle Ridge copper project, including the exploration program, technical studies and permitting activities.

As at September 30, 2011, total liabilities were $4.8 million compared to $5.6 million as at December 31, 2010. They primarily consist of liabilities assumed on the acquisition of the Oracle Ridge copper project, which includes promissory notes payable of approximately $3.3 million. In January 2011, the Corporation settled the total liability outstanding for the purchase of land adjacent to the Oracle Ridge copper property for $0.6 million. Subsequent to the quarter end, in October 2011 the Corporation settled $0.5 million owing on its promissory notes payable.

At September 30, 2011, the Corporation had cash and cash equivalents of $13.1 million, working capital of $11.9 million, and long-term debt of $2.6 million.
