New Jersey Mining Company Provides Second Quarter 2017 Update on Operations and Corporate Activities

14.08.2017  |  GlobeNewswire
COEUR D'ALENE, Aug. 14, 2017 - New Jersey Mining Company (OTCQB:NJMC) (“NJMC” or the “Company”) today provided its Second Quarter update on operations at its Golden Chest Mine and corporate activities.


Operational highlights include the following:

- During the three-month period ending June 30, 2017, approximately 7,425 dry metric tonnes (dmt) were processed at the Company’s New Jersey Mill, with average head grade of 4.78 grams per tonne (gpt) and average recoveries of 86.4 -percent.

- NJMC produced and sold 1,319 ounces of gold in the second quarter.

- Open pit mining operations progressed to the 1066 bench and mine production averaged 1,550 tonnes per day of ore and waste. The addition of a second haul truck improved productivity and reduced costs in the open pit.

- Underground work included continued preparation of the electrical system, mucking of the ramp bottom, equipment repair, and support for the open pit operation. Work on a cement slurry batch plant, necessary for the underground backfill system, is nearing completion with some piping and instrument programming tasks remaining.

- Phase one of the previously announced trenching program has successfully continued defining the boundary of the Golden Chest Ore Shoot and, as planned, is now targeting the Klondike Ore Shoot. Further details of the trenching program will be provided in an upcoming announcement upon completion of additional drilling and analysis.

NJMC CEO and President John Swallow stated, “We continue to demonstrate our ability to design, manage, and advance both open-pit and underground operations while processing ore at our own mill. We are using the resulting cash flow to rapidly pay down our debt, as evidenced by just over $725,000 in debt reduction since December 31st. At this rate we anticipate being largely debt-free in late 2018.”


Corporate highlights include the following:

- Achieved Q2 Revenue of $1,262,690, as compared to $48,312 in Q2 2016.

- Recorded net income of $206,672, which includes $84,668 of non-cash charges (Depreciation / Amortization of $32,711, Amortization of note payable of $11,756, Accretion of asset retirement obligation of $2,185, Stock option based compensation of $39,633, and mark to market of forward gold sale obligation of $1,618).

- Year-to-date reduction in total liabilities of $726,491.

- Submitted draft prospectus to the Ontario Securities Commission, updating requested technical information to reflect production activities at the Golden Chest Mine.

Mr. Swallow concluded, “Reaching profitability at this stage of our business plan is a significant accomplishment. As we transition into 2018, our first full year operating open pit and underground mines at Golden Chest, we plan to implement a market awareness program in conjunction with efforts to expand our shareholder base through listing on the Canadian Stock Exchange.”
