General Moly, Inc. Provides Finance Update

15.05.2013  |  Business Wire
LAKEWOOD, Colo. -- (BUSINESS WIRE) -- General Moly, Inc. (the "Company") (NYSE MKT and TSX: GMO), a U.S.-based molybdenum mineral development, exploration and mining company, provided an update on finance activities.

On May 14, 2013, General Moly and Hanlong (USA) Mining (“Hanlong”) mutually agreed to terminate a $125 million subordinated loan agreement intended to supplement a $665 million Chinese sourced term loan for the financing of the Mt. Hope Project. The subordinated loan agreement, which would have become available upon receipt of the Chinese sourced term loan, was terminated to provide General Moly with greater flexibility in securing an additional Chinese strategic partner. The termination of the subordinated loan agreement also cancels the arrangement fee of $6.25 million payable upon closing of a Chinese sourced term loan. Further, the warrant with a 2.5 year maturity to purchase ten million shares of General Moly common stock at a strike price of $4.23 per share was terminated.

Bruce D. Hansen, Chief Executive Officer of General Moly, said, “Hanlong’s cooperation and assistance is appreciated as we move forward to secure another Chinese strategic partner capable of advancing the full financing of the Mt. Hope Project and reinvigorating advanced stage loan negotiations with China Development Bank.”

Mr. Hansen added, “Our efforts to secure such a strategic partner are incrementally enhanced by the elimination of these warrants which reduces the potential for future dilution. We are actively marketing the Mt. Hope Project as a fully permitted, construction-ready, high grade / lower cost molybdenum deposit supported by our joint venture partner POS-Minerals, and recently attracted a number of parties in China who are beginning to engage in due diligence.”

Mr. Hansen concluded, “We are also in discussions to negotiate an equipment lease agreement on the mobile mining fleet to replace all or part of the subordinated loan agreement component of our Mt. Hope Project finance plan.”

In a previous project financing update, the Company reported that on March 20, 2013, the Company was notified that China Development Bank had provided instructions to its legal counsel to suspend work on the $665 million term loan. This suspension relates to reports that Mr. Liu Han, Founder of Sichuan Hanlong Group has been detained by Chinese authorities.


General Moly is a U.S.-based molybdenum mineral development, exploration and mining company listed on the NYSE MKT (formerly the NYSE AMEX) and the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol GMO. Our primary asset, our interest in the Mt. Hope Project located in central Nevada, is considered one of the world's largest and highest grade molybdenum deposits. Combined with our second molybdenum property, the Liberty Project that is also located in central Nevada, our goal is to become the largest pure play primary molybdenum producer in the world.
