Grants Creek
The Grants Creek Project is located approximately 60 km north of Halls Creek and includes a number of advanced prospects with the first mining recorded during the 1880s. Grants Creek has a large amount of historical drilling recorded, and Pantoro believes that there is strong potential to rapidly define a JORC-compliant Mineral Resource.

Nicholsons Regional Projects
Pantoro has a portfolio of regional exploration targets located near the Nicolsons Project, approximately 45 km southwest of Halls Creek in Western Australia.

TREATMENT
The Phoenix gold processing plant utilises conventional milling and carbon-in-leach (”CIL") technology for the recovery of gold. The plant is at present closed.
PERTH (miningweekly.com) – Gold developer Pantoro has narrowed down a processing plant option for the Norseman gold project, in Western Australia.
“The outcome of this study provides Pantoro with a clear way forward for the reconstruction of the Norseman processing facility.
▪ Old plant was demolished and a contract with GR Engineering Services to construct a new 1Mtpa carbon in leach processing plant (with the flexibility to be increased up to 1.5Mtpa)
▪ Crushing circuit sized to enable increased throughput without modification
▪ Designed to treat multiple ore sources, and additional ore sources from subsequent phases of development
A large amount of existing infrastructure at the site provides a major reduction in capital costs for the project and the review confirms our pre-acquisition cost assumptions,

Bit of bullish price action in both PNR and TUL. I don't know the state of the merger between the two.
Would require some research before buying.

ASX:pNR Discounted Cash Flow as at Feb 2025


 
A few things I don't like about it:
The appalling rate of dilution to 4.5 Billion shares over eight years. If you reduced this company to 100m shares at the present market cap of $871m the share price would be $8.71
It's been taking on debt while running at a loss.
Revival of old mines has a high casualty rate in my perception and this includes Norseman, which destroyed my investment in Croesus Mining many moons ago. From googling:

"Croesus Mining bought the Norseman gold mine in Western Australia in 2002, but went into administration in 2006.

Croesus Mining and the Norseman mine
  • Croesus Mining NL was based in Kalgoorlie.

  • The company announced a rights issue to raise funds for exploration and mine development at the Norseman gold operations.

  • Croesus Mining devised a short-term plan to return the Norseman gold mine to profitability.

  • The company collapsed in June 2006. "

Mining tech and exploration have come a long way since 2006 though, they can re-run old tailings these days and scavenge minerals.

Then you have to look at the price of gold in the current market and it's still rising, makes a lot of the smaller outfits more profitable.

Agree with those comments on the differences btw now and the past.

It's a plus that they have a mining engineer in charge although I just checked and he's been there for 14 years! Through all the dilution and loss making. Also his thumbnail bio on CommSec is extremely vague. Come to think of it, I don't like him as a snapshot.

I'll look further into what they're actually doing that's new at some time. My comments are just historically based.

I maintain my criticism of the extent of dilution. That practice just sacrifices early investors while the business and management plow forward undamaged. It's like Putin's use of his troops. Managements typically buffer themselves with more free options, or worse, performance shares.
