prnews
VANCOUVER, Aug. 15, 2011 /PRNewswire/ - Yukon-Nevada Gold Corp. (TSX: YNG) (Frankfurt Xetra Exchange: NG6) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has closed the Forward
Gold Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") with Deutsche Bank AG, London
Branch ("Deutsche Bank") as announced on August 3, 2011. Deutsche Bank
has funded a US$120 million prepaid gold forward facility (the "Gold
Facility") to Queenstake Resources USA, Inc. ("Queenstake"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
The Company has received the required shareholder approvals in
accordance with Section 604(d) of the TSX Company Manual and
Multilateral Instrument 61-101, and has satisfied all of the closing
conditions and internal approval requirements.
The facility is a forward contract structured to deliver 173,880 ounces
of gold over a 48 month term (the "Transaction"). The schedule of gold
payments is set forth as follows: during the first six (6) months of
the term, 1,000 ounces per month; for the next six (6) months of the
term, 2,000 ounces per month; for the final 36 months of the term,
4,330 ounces per month. The 173,880 ounces of gold that have been
committed under this gold facility represent approximately 24.3% of the
gold reserves or 5.1% of the total gold resources at Queenstake's
wholly-owned Jerritt Canyon property in Nevada, USA.
The gold pricing valuation has been finalized and subsequent to the
receipt of the US$120 million prepayment, the remainder of the purchase
price for the gold will be paid to Queenstake upon completion of the
monthly gold deliveries to Deutsche Bank and will be equal to the
amount that the gold price exceeds US$850 up to a maximum gold price of
US$1,950 (an increase from US$1,700 as previously disclosed).
Use of proceeds from the Gold Facility include repayment of senior
secured notes issued to note holders led by Sprott Asset Management LP
in August 2010 and the remainder of the proceeds are to be used for the
capital expenditures at the Jerritt Canyon property, including the
winterization of the processing facility, construction of the tailings
storage facility and development of the existing underground and open
pit mines in addition to further improvements to the gold production
processes to enhance throughput at the mill.
Yukon-Nevada Gold Corp. is a North American gold producer in the
business of discovering, developing and operating gold deposits. The
Company holds a diverse portfolio of gold, silver, zinc and copper
properties in the Yukon Territory and British Columbia in Canada and in
Nevada in the United States. The Company's focus has been on the
acquisition and development of late stage development and operating
properties with gold as the primary target. Continued growth will occur
by increasing or initiating production from the Company's existing
properties.
