   BARRICK Gold has ruled out a takeover bid for Lihir Gold that would trump a $9.7 billion scrip and cash offer from Newcrest Mining.
   
   Lihir chief executive Graeme Hunt said last week it was possible another suitor could emerge for the Papua New Guinea-focused goldminer, with speculation centring on North American giants Newmont Mining and Canada's Barrick Gold.
   
   But at the annual Diggers & Dealers mining conference in the goldmining town of Kalgoorlie yesterday, Barrick Gold Asia Pacific president Gary Halverson said the world's biggest goldminer's board had ruled out a rival bid for Lihir.
   
   "We look at all kinds of opportunities all the time, but it obviously made more sense to them (Newcrest) at this point than to us," Mr Halverson said. "I'm assuming that deal is pretty well done."

   Lihir Gold shareholders support Newcrest Mining takeover
   
   LIHIR investors today backed a takeover by Newcrest, leaving the two one step from becoming the world's fifth-largest gold miner.
   
   Shares in both firms were placed in trading halts today, as the companies awaited the results of the vote on the merger at a meeting held in Port Moresby.
   
   Newcrest last traded at $35.78, while Lihir finished Friday's session at $4.43.
   
   Lihir general manager of corporate affairs Joe Dowling told AAP that the preliminary voting results showed 99 per cent of the target's investors were in favour of the $10 billion transaction.
   
   Mr Dowling said about 1.7bn proxy votes backed the merger, while only 2.6 million proxy votes were against the deal. The vast majority of votes were proxies, he said.
   
   The final hurdle is court approval in Papua New Guinea, which is due this Friday.
   xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
   
   Lihir says the combined company will have annual gold production of about 2.8m ounces (Moz), based on Newcrest and Lihir's 2008-09 production results, which would rank it the world's fifth-largest producer of the precious metal.

   LIHIR Gold shareholders have voted almost unanimously to accept Newcrest Mining's $10.6 billion scrip-and-cash takeover offer.
   
   At the meeting, 99.86 per cent of all votes cast were in favour of the deal, which will see Lihir shareholders receive 0.12 Newcrest shares and 22.5c for every Lihir share they own.

   Newmont trims gold production forecasts
   
   January 24, 2011
   GOLD miner Newmont has dropped its long-term production estimates for the Boddington mine in Western Australia by up to 100,000 ounces a year, representing up to $140m in lost annual revenue, as the nation's largest gold mine struggles with lower-than-expected grades.
   
   The slump in expected production could mean a fall of up to 2 million ounces in the estimated reserves of the project when the US company issues its results next month, barring new finds.
   
   Boddington, about 100km southeast of Perth, started production in 2009.
   
   It was supposed to produce more than 1 million ounces a year of gold for its first five years and an average 850,000 ounces a year over its full 25-year life.
   
   But late last week, Newmont chief financial officer Russell Ball revealed to a Whistler mining conference that lower-than-expected grades had substantially reduced the company's long-term expectations. "It's not delivering what we had hoped, but we think it can deliver still somewhere in the 750 to 800,000 (ounces-a-year range) . . . for 25 years," Mr Ball said.

   3rd February 2011
   
   PERTH (miningweekly.com) - ASX-listed Republic Gold has appointed Bolivia’s largest securitisation specialist to raise up to $100-million in the local capital market for the construction and commissioning of the Amayapampa gold project.
   
   The Amayapampa project was said to have the potential to be the largest producing gold mine in Bolivia.
   
   BDP Sociedad de Titularizacion SA has been appointed to structure and arrange a bond issue of up to $100-million to provide project debt financing.
   
   Republic Gold said on Thursday that the proceeds from this bond issue would provide funding for around 60% of the total funding requirements to develop the project.
   
   While the structuring, arranging and regulatory approvals process in Bolivia for the financing is expected to take around six months, funding is expected by early in the third quarter.
   
   “BDP is the market leader in the local capital markets in Bolivia,” said Republic chairperson Peter Wicks.
   
   “With their structuring and arranging expertise and Amayapampa’s strong fundamentals, we look forward with confidence to securing a substantial portion of the project’s total funding needs on attractive terms for Republic shareholders.”
   
   The Amayapampa project would likely produce around 82 600 oz/y of gold over an eight year life-of-mine period, at an average cash cost of A$444/oz.
   
   The project was expected to cost around $136-million to develop.

   NEWCREST Mining, the world's third-largest gold miner by market value, has reported a 63 per cent rise in net profit for the year to June 30 to $908 million, as production jumped on its acquisition of Lihir Gold and the price of gold soared.
   
   A surging gold price, which averaged $1409 per troy ounce in the company's fourth quarter and has since hit successive records of more than $US1800 helped lift earnings at the Melbourne-based company from $556.9m the previous year.
   
   By late morning, Newcrest shares were down 1.77 per cent at $40.01 in a positive broader market.
   
   Newcrest also increased production by 43 per cent to 2.5 million oz of gold in the year ended June 30 owing to its merger with Lihir in September last year and higher output from its mines.
   
   Newcrest expects gold production in the 2012 fiscal year to total 2.775 million oz to 2.925 million oz, with capital expenditure forecast at $2 billion to $2.2bn

   PERSEUS Mining and Teranga Gold could be the next gold miners in corporate activity after the $600 million Adamus Resources deal, as juniors continue to consolidate to fill the "genuine mid-tier gap" in Australia's gold sector.
   
   After Newcrest Mining's $10 billion takeover of Lihir Gold, the gold sector has been one of the busiest for dealmaking, along with coal, as local and international miners scramble to grow through acquisition to increase production and market value amid the soaring gold price.
   
   The spot price of gold this morning touched a fresh high of $US1911.54 as continued global jitters push investors into the safety of the precious metal.
   
   After the Lihir deal, US major Goldcorp swooped on Andean Resources - at the time Australia's second-biggest goldminer - in a $C3.6 billion ($3.49bn) deal, followed by Canada's Anatolia Minerals move on Perth-based Avoca Resources, which created Alacer Gold.

    THE world's fifth-largest gold miner by output Newcrest Mining said that gold output fell 16 per cent in its first quarter to 587,296 ounces while costs rose, after shutdowns at three of its largest mines.
    
    Newcrest said cash costs rose 10 per cent to $594 an ounce from the previous quarter but the gross cash margin climbed 19 per cent to $1029 an ounce thanks to the higher selling price for gold, which averaged $1623 an ounce during the three months to the end of September.
    
    Copper production, at 19,228 tonnes, was slightly lower than the previous quarter.
    
    In early trade, Newcrest shares tumbled more than 5 per cent before recovering slightly to be down 4.14 per cent at $34.27 in a weaker broader market.
    
    The shutdowns were due to maintenance closures at Lihir in Papua New Guinea, Telfer in Western Australia and Gosowong in Indonesia, along with high rainfall at Lihir.

    NEWCREST Mining says gold production fell 20 per cent in its fiscal second quarter after mining operations were hit by heavy rain in Papua New Guinea and a groundfall at an open-pit mine in Australia.
    
    The Melbourne-based company, Australia's top gold producer by output and the world's third-largest by market value, last month trimmed its production forecast for the year through June.
    
    Newcrest reiterated that full-year output was likely to be between 2.43 million and 2.55 million ounces, and said it was sticking with its original guidance on copper output, capital expenditure and operating costs.
    
    Gold production fell to 579,073 ounces in the December quarter from 722,783 ounces a year earlier.
    
    However, copper output, mined as a byproduct, rose to 18,171 tonnes from 17,712 tonnes, Newcrest said.
    
    Cash costs in the December quarter were $606 an ounce, up 2 per cent from the September quarter, with a higher realised gold price of $1648 an ounce and 1 per cent lift in gross cash margin to $1042.
    
    Stock Resource managing director Grant Craighead said it was a tough quarter for Newcrest, but that had been flagged and the market was expecting it.
    
    Newcrest also lost production from its Cracow and Mt Rawdon mines, which were sold to Evolution Mining in a sale during the quarter.

    Australian gold miner Northern Star Resources said on Monday it will buy De Grey Mining in an all-share deal valuing the smaller miner at A$5 billion ($3.3 billion) as high gold prices spur consolidation in the sector.
    
    For Northern Star, the deal offers low-cost, medium- to longer-term growth through access to De Grey’s Hemi gold development project in Western Australia, which will ramp up toward the end of the decade.
    Sign Up for the Precious Metals Digest
    
    It comes after a rise in gold prices, and Australian-dollar gold prices in particular, which hit a record above A$4,240 a troy ounce in late October, and have rallied by about a third in the past year.
    
    “Obviously gold is expensive, but it’s a script deal so we are happy with that,” said Baden Moore of CLSA.
    
    Northern Star shares sank as much as 5% however, while shares in De Grey rallied as much as 28% before trading at A$1.93.
    
    Under the deal, De Grey shareholders will get 0.119 new Northern Star shares for each share held, implying an offer price of A$2.08 per share.
    
    The offer price represents a 36.8% premium on De Grey’s Friday share close of A$1.52.
    
    “De Grey’s Hemi development project will deliver a low-cost, long-life and large-scale gold mine in the Tier-1 jurisdiction of Western Australia, enhancing the quality of Northern Star’s asset portfolio to generate cash earnings,” Stuart Tonkin, Northern Star’s CEO, said.
    
    Hemi has forecast average gold production of 553,000 ounces per annum over the first five years.
    
    Northern Star already owns and operates three production centres, comprising its Kalgoorlie and Yandal operations in Western Australia and Pogo in Alaska.
    
    Upon completion of the deal, Northern Star shareholders will own about 80.1% of the merged company, while De Grey shareholders will own the rest.
    
    The deal presents an attractive opportunity for De Grey shareholders in terms of upfront premium along with retaining ongoing exposure to Hemi and gaining exposure to Northern Star’s portfolio, said Glenn Jardine, De Grey’s managing director.
    
    De Grey’s directors have unanimously recommended shareholders vote in favour of the deal, which is expected to close by late April or early May, the two companies said.
    
    Shares in Gold Road Resources, De Grey’s biggest shareholder with some 17% of the company according to LSEG, rose by 10%.
