International Wayside Gold Mines Ltd.: Court Approves Cross Lake Plan of Arrangement Including Proposed QR Mine & Mill (900 tpd) Acquisition
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, May 28, 2009 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- International Wayside Gold Mines Ltd. ("Wayside") (TSX VENTURE: WYG)(FRANKFURT: IWUB) is pleased to announce further to News Release 09-09 dated May 19, 2009, that as previously stated, the creditors of Cross Lake Minerals Ltd.("Cross Lake") approved an amended and restated plan of compromise and arrangement (the "Plan"), which amended, in a number of technical respects, the plan of compromise and arrangement filed on April 7, 2009 pursuant to the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act and B.C. Business Corporations Act.
On May 25, 2009, the British Columbia Supreme Court issued the final order to approve the Plan, which among other things, allows for a subsidiary of Cross Lake to hold all of Cross Lake's interest in the QR Mine and Mill (the "QR Subco"). Wayside intends to proceed to enter into an agreement ("the Agreement") first announced on February 04, 2009 and updated April 9, 2009 whereby Wayside will purchase the QR Subco. Completion of the Agreement is subject to the satisfaction of a number of conditions including, but not limited to, completion of due diligence and obtaining the necessary shareholder, regulatory and Court approvals.
The 900 tonne per day QR Mill, which was fully operational until February 2009 (now on care and maintenance), is a CIP mill designed for an output of 70,000 ounces of gold per annum for that location. The mill is located 110 km by road from Wayside's Cariboo Gold Project and proposed Bonanza Ledge Mine. Following a positive feasibility study in 1994, Kinross Gold Corp. constructed the QR Mill with capital costs estimated at over $40 million.
Cross Lake commenced operations at the QR Mine in 2007 -
- after spending over $34 million in the preceding 24 months
- on project acquisition ($4.3 million),
- exploration & development ($20 million)
- and refurbishing the mill facilities ($10.3).
- Cross Lake expended an additional $3 million on asset
retirement obligations, including having BC Hydro
bring three phase power to the project.
It is Wayside's objective to process material from its proposed Bonanza Ledge Mine at the QR Mill, in addition to recommencing operations at the QR Mine.
The Company initiated operations in the Cariboo District in 1994 and since that time has focused on the exploration and development of its gold properties. Mineral tenures in the Historic Cariboo Goldfields encompass approximately 1,065 square km (106,484 hectares) over a 60 km long by 20 km wide belt. In the Barkerville Gold Camp, 101 creeks have reported placer gold production. Recorded gold production from the area totals more than 3.8 million ounces, including an estimated 2.64 million ounces from placer mining and 1.23 million ounces from lode mining.

Wayside Drills 51.5m (170 Feet) of 7.17 g/t Gold Including 20.2m (66.4 Feet) of 14.6 g/t Gold
Mon Oct 5, 2:42 AM
http://ca.news.finance.yahoo.com/s/05102009/28/link-f-ccnmatthews-wayside-drills-51-5m-170-feet-7-17.html
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Oct. 5, 2009) - International Wayside Gold Mines Ltd. ("Wayside", the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: WYG.V)(FRANKFURT: IWUB.F) reports today that it has received more results from its infill diamond drill program in the Bonanza Ledge Zone on Barkerville Mountain and from one of the three diamond drill holes testing the mine grid west extension of the BC Vein on Cow Mountain (Table 1).
The proposed 17 infill diamond drill program in the Bonanza Ledge Zone will upgrade its existing NI 43-101 resource from an inferred to indicated category. To date, 16 of 17 drill holes have been completed with BC09-01 through BC09-05, BC09-07 (please see September 17, 2009 News Release) through BC09-09, and BC09-11 returning promising intercepts containing gold mineralization.
- Drill hole BC09-08 intercepted:
- 18.3 meters (60.0 feet) of 1.15 g/T gold,
- including 0.43m (1.4 feet) of 21.8 g/T gold
- 24.4 meters (80.0 feet) of 1.14 g/T gold
- Drill hole BC09-09 intercepted:
- 24.4 meters (80.0 feet) of 5.39 g/T gold,
- including 0.85 meters (2.8 feet) of 102 g/T gold
- Drill hole BC09-11 intercepted:
- 51.5 meters (170.0 feet) of 7.17 g/T gold,
- including 20.2 meters (66.4 feet) of 14.6 g/T gold
Results from the remaining holes in the infill program are forthcoming.
Drill holes CM09-01 through CM09-03 were completed beside the Lowhee Creek on Cow Mountain and confirm the mine grid west extension of the BC Vein. The results verify that strike quartz veins including BC Vein exist on Cow Mountain, though more drilling needs to be conducted to confirm the total length and depth along strike. Gold values returned from the strike vein are up to 22.7 g/T (see September 17, 2009 News Release).
Drill hole CM09-03 intercepted a fine-grained pyrite replacement body in a fault zone, which contains up to 60% fine-grained pyrite and returns up to 22.7 g/T gold (Table 1).

Upcoming Drill Programs and Resource Development
Bonanza Ledge -
Management received a positive Pre-Feasibility Study ("PFS") on the proposed Bonanza Ledge open pit gold mine (see News Release 09-22, Sept. 10, 2009) and is taking the necessary steps to advance the project to production. In addition, drilling to improve the resources is in progress.
With a $950 per ounce gold price, project economics in the PFS outline pre-tax cash flow during the 4 year mine life at $20.5 million, a pre-tax internal rate of return of 111.8% and a net present value (5% discount) of $16.3 million. The net present value figure applies only to the proposed Bonanza Ledge open pit gold mine and does not represent value relating to the Company's other NI 43-101 compliant resources.
Cariboo Gold Quartz -
A Notice of Work has been submitted to begin drilling 202 holes below the 1200' Level to develop additional ounces underneath the current NI43-101 compliant resource. Historic mining records suggest the grade is continuous with the area having a similar tonnage potential as that above the 1200' Level.
Wayside President J. Frank Callaghan states, "A Notice of Work will also be submitted to twin historic drill holes above the 1200' Level at Cariboo Gold Quartz, with the objective to bring the current 43-101 back to its pre-43-101 resource of 1 million ounces, indicated by two resource estimates".
BC Vein -
In March 2000, the Bonanza Ledge Zone was discovered in the footwall of the BC Vein on Barkerville Mountain. The BC Vein has now been traced as much as 1600 meters beyond the Bonanza Ledge Zone. Additional drilling on Cow Mountain to delineate the BC Vein's strike extension offset by the Lowhee Fault is in progress.
The current BC Vein NI 43-101 resource estimate will be updated to include an additional 106 drill holes (15,273 meters) drilled by the Company to date that have cut into the BC Vein and have not yet been added to the resource model.

International Wayside Gold Mines Ltd.: NI 43-101 Report Filed on Recently Acquired Cariboo Land Package
Wed Jun 24, 10:05 AM
http://ca.news.finance.yahoo.com/s/24062009/28/link-f-ccnmatthews-international-wayside-gold-mines-ltd-ni-43-101.html
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - June 24, 2009) - International Wayside Gold Mines Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: WYG.V)(FRANKFURT: IWUB.F) ("Wayside") is pleased to announce it has filed a National Instrument NI 43-101 Technical Report ("the Report") prepared by Jarrod Brown, M. Sc., P. Geo. and Jim Yin, Ph.D., P.Geo., on Wayside's 276.7 sq. km land package recently acquired from Golden Cariboo Resources, at the Cariboo Gold Project near Wells, British Columbia. The full report is available for download on the company's website at www.wayside-gold.com.
The 2000-2008 exploration programs discussed in the Report confirmed the wide spread presence of quartz vein and pyrite replacement styles of gold mineralization on the land package. The numerous anomalies and occasional high grade values encountered in the exploration programs verify the conviction that the land package has potential to host well-mineralized gold ore bodies, possibly of economic grade.
The Report recommends a 2009 exploration program on G Property consisting of 1,829 meters (6,000 feet) of diamond drilling with a proposed budget of $420,250.00. A two phase exploration program in 2009 is recommended for the Warspite Property on Mt. Proserpine. Phase I consists of a SP survey within the previously selected prospect area in 2006. Phase II consists of trenching and 1,524 meters (5,000 feet) of diamond drilling to test the SP anomalies of Phase I. The total budget for the 2009 exploration programs on the Warspite Property is $373,500.00. The grand total proposed budget for the 2009 exploration programs on both G and Warspite Properties on the land package is $793,750.00.
The Company initiated operations in the Cariboo District in 1994 and since that time has focused on the exploration and development of its gold properties. Mineral tenures in the Historic Cariboo Goldfields encompass approximately 1,065 square km (106,484 hectares) over a 60 km long by 20 km wide belt. In the Barkerville Gold Camp, 101 creeks have reported placer gold production. Recorded gold production from the area totals more than 3.8 million ounces, including an estimated 2.64 million ounces from placer mining and 1.23 million ounces from lode mining.
Wayside is in the process of acquiring the QR Mine and 900 tonne per day QR Mill, which was fully operational until February 2009 (now on care and maintenance). The QR Mill is a CIP mill designed for an output of 70,000 ounces of gold per annum for that location. The mill is 110 km by road from Wayside's Cariboo Gold Project and proposed Bonanza Ledge Mine.
The technical information in this News Release has been reviewed and approved by chief geologist Jim Yin, PhD, P.Geo, a qualified person as defined in National Instrument 43-101.

("Wayside") (TSX VENTURE: WYG)(FRANKFURT: IWUB) is pleased
to announce on June 1, 2009, Cross Lake Minerals Ltd.
("Cross Lake") completed the closing conditions of the plan
of compromise and arrangement (the "Plan"), including
obtaining final BC Supreme Court approval, thus allowing
Wayside to proceed to enter into an agreement
("the Agreement") first announced on February 04, 2009 and
updated April 9, 2009 whereby Wayside will purchase
the QR Mine and Mill.
Completion of the Agreement is subject to the satisfaction
of a number of conditions including, but not limited to,
completion of due diligence and obtaining the necessary
shareholder, regulatory and Court approvals.
The 900 tonne per day QR Mill, which was fully operational
until February 2009 (now on care and maintenance),
is a CIP mill designed for an output of 70,000 ounces of gold
per annum for that location.
The mill is located 110 km by road from Wayside's Cariboo
Gold Project and proposed Bonanza Ledge Mine.
Following a positive feasibility study in 1994,
Kinross Gold Corp. constructed the QR Mill with capital costs
estimated at over $40 million.
Cross Lake commenced operations at the QR Mine in 2007 after
spending over $34 million in the preceding 24 months on
project acquisition ($4.3 million),
exploration & development ($20 million)
and refurbishing the mill facilities ($10.3 million).
Cross Lake expended an additional $3 million
on asset retirement obligations,
including having BC Hydro bring three phase power
to the project.
It is Wayside's objective to process material from its
proposed Bonanza Ledge Mine
(subject to receipt of all necessary permits) at
the QR Mill, in addition to recommencing operations
at the QR Mine.
The Company initiated operations in the Cariboo District
in 1994 and since that time has focused on
the exploration and development of its gold properties.
Mineral tenures in the Historic Cariboo Goldfields encompass
approximately 1,065 square km (106,484 hectares) over a
60 km long by 20 km wide belt.
In the Barkerville Gold Camp, 101 creeks have reported
placer gold production.
Recorded gold production from the area totals more than
3.8 million ounces, including an
estimated 2.64 million ounces from placer mining
and 1.23 million ounces from lode mining.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, May 28, 2009 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- International Wayside Gold Mines Ltd. ("Wayside") (TSX VENTURE: WYG)(FRANKFURT: IWUB) is pleased to announce further to News Release 09-09 dated May 19, 2009, that as previously stated, the creditors of Cross Lake Minerals Ltd.("Cross Lake") approved an amended and restated plan of compromise and arrangement (the "Plan"), which amended, in a number of technical respects, the plan of compromise and arrangement filed on April 7, 2009 pursuant to the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act and B.C.

On May 25, 2009, the British Columbia Supreme Court issued the final order to approve the Plan, which among other things, allows for a subsidiary of Cross Lake to hold all of Cross Lake's interest in the QR Mine and Mill (the "QR Subco").

International Wayside Gold Mines Ltd.: Update on QR Mine and Mill Proposed Acquisition -
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/International-Wayside-Gold-ccn-15215252.html?.v=1
Tuesday May 12, 2009, 10:01 am EDT
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - May 12, 2009) -
International Wayside Gold Mines Ltd. -
(the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:WYG - News; FRANKFURT:IWUA - News) is pleased to announce further to news release NR09-05, dated April 9, 2009, that the creditors of Cross Lake Minerals Ltd. approved an amended and restated plan of compromise and arrangement (the "Plan"), which amended, in a number of technical respects, the plan of compromise and arrangement filed on April 7, 2009 pursuant to Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act and the British Columbia Business Corporations Act.
The completion of the arrangement provided for in the Plan is subject to a number of conditions, including the granting of a final Court order approving the Plan. It is anticipated that Cross Lake will apply to Court for a final order approving the Plan on or about May 14, 2009. Approval of the Plan will allow a subsidiary of Cross Lake to hold all of Cross Lake's interest in the QR Mine and Mill.
Once that Plan is approved, the Company intends to proceed to enter into an agreement first announced on February 10, 2009 and updated April 9, 2009 whereby the Company will purchase a subsidiary of Cross Lake holding all of Cross Lake's interest in the QR Mine and Mill (collectively the "QR Mine & Mill").
Concurrently with the completion of the Sale Transaction, Wayside will transfer all of its properties including the Cariboo Gold Project, assets, liabilities and obligations (including the Subco Shares) which company owns the QR Mine and Mill to a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wayside ("Newco") in exchange for shares of Newco (the "Newco Shares"); distribute the Newco Shares to the shareholders of Wayside (for greater clarity, excluding Cross Lake) on the basis of one Newco Share for each share of Wayside held by such shareholders; reorganize its share capital so that the shares of Wayside held by the shareholders other than Cross Lake are retractable at a price and time to be agreed by the parties; change its name to a new name designated by Cross Lake, and delist from the Exchange (the "Spin-Off Transaction").
Newco holding all of the previous assets and liabilities, if any, of Wayside and the QR Mine and Mill (to be renamed "Barkerville Gold Mines Ltd.") will make an application to list its shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"). This transaction is subject to meeting the usual listing requirements of the TSXV which will include having the necessary funds to meet the obligations of operating the QR Mine and Mill, conduct recommended work programs on its exploration projects, satisfy the necessary general and administrative expenses and having unallocated working capital. It is contemplated that as part of the Spin-Off Transaction, Barkerville will file a prospectus in certain jurisdictions to qualify its shares for distribution. There can be no assurance that Barkerville will receive a receipt for any prospectus filed, nor any assurance that the Company will meet the listing requirements of the TSXV.
The Sale Transaction and Spin-Off Transaction (together, the "Transactions") will be structured as a plan of arrangement involving Wayside, its security holders, Cross Lake and Barkerville pursuant to the provisions of the B.C. Business Corporations Act ("BCBCA"). The final terms of the Transactions will be modified to the extent necessary to give effect to tax and legal advice to be sought by the parties.
The completion of the Transactions will be subject to the satisfaction of a number of conditions including the completion of the Restructuring Transaction, listing of the shares of Barkerville on the TSXV, completion of definitive agreements and due diligence. Completion will also be subject to obtaining the necessary shareholder, regulatory and Court approvals. Upon closing of the Transactions, Wayside will have no debts, liabilities or other obligations (absolute, contingent or otherwise), all outstanding options, warrants and other rights to acquire securities of Wayside will be exercised or cancelled, the directors and officers of Wayside will resign and be replaced by nominees of Cross Lake. Upon closing of the Transactions Barkerville will hold all of the properties, assets, liabilities and obligations of Wayside and the QR Mine and Mill as previously described. The Transactions will close at a mutually acceptable date as agreed upon by the parties.
Upon satisfactory completion of due diligence and the entering into of definitive agreements, detailed information with respect to the Transactions will be provided in the Management Information Circular to be mailed to shareholders. There is no assurance that the Transactions will proceed, or that they will proceed on the basis described herein.
The QR Mill is a 900 tonne per day CIP mill located 110 km by road from the Company's Cariboo Gold Project and proposed Bonanza Ledge Mine. Following a positive feasibility study in 1994, Kinross Gold Corp. constructed the QR mill with capital costs estimated at over $40 million. Cross Lake Minerals began operations at the QR Mine in 2007 after spending in excess of $10 million refurbishing the mill facilities. It is the Company's objective to process material from its proposed Bonanza Ledge Mine at the QR Mill, in addition to recommencing operations at the QR Mine.
The Cariboo Gold Project encompasses (from northwest to south east), the former producing Hardscrabble Tungsten Mine, Mosquito Creek Gold Mine (now on care and maintenance), Aurum Mine, Island Mountain Mine, Cariboo Gold Quartz Mine, Bonanza Ledge (proposed mine), the Cariboo Thompson Gold & Silver Mine and the Cariboo Hudson Mine.
The Company commenced operations in the Cariboo District in 1994 and since that time has focused on the exploration and development of its gold properties. Mineral tenures in the Historic Cariboo Goldfields encompass approximately 1,065 square km (106,484 hectares) over a 60 km long by 20 km wide belt. In the Barkerville Gold Camp, 101 creeks have reported placer gold production. Recorded gold production from the area totals more than 3.8 million ounces, including an estimated 2.64 million ounces from placer mining and 1.23 million ounces from lode mining.

QR Mine First "New" Gold Mine to Open in BC for 10 Years -
Cross Lake Minerals Ltd. -
("Cross Lake" or the "Company") is a Vancouver based exploration and development company focused on precious metals. In 2001, in a market characterized by very low gold prices, the Company acquired the QR Mine from Kinross Gold Corporation. The QR Mine is a fully-equipped 1000 tonne per day facility that was placed on care and maintenance in 1998. Cross Lake is now poised to take advantage of the significant increase in gold prices since that time in restarting the QR Mine in 2006. The Company also acquired several complimentary exploration projects predominantly in British Columbia, with the latest being the Porcher Island Project near Prince Rupert. Porcher Island has a long history of exploration and production and Cross Lake intends to pursue the confirmation and delineation of a significant resource that was reported by previous operators.

Region Overview
The Cariboo gold belt in south-central British Columbia was a world-class producer of gold. Historic gold production in the Cariboo area was approximately 3.8 million ounces, 2 million from placer operations and 1.8 million form lode deposits. These totals are an estimate only as prior to 1874 production was not recorded. 90 percent of the placer gold was recovered from Late Pleistocene, pre-glacial and interglacial gravels in buried paleo-channels of modern stream valleys. In addition, the placer operation from the Bullion pit at Likely produced 175,000 ounces of gold and 1,800 ounces of platinum. Gold and platinum were also reported in placers in the Frank Creek area in similar proportions.
In addition to placer gold operations, four underground mines - Cariboo Gold Quartz, Island Mountain, Mosquito Creek and Cariboo-Hudson - have operated in the district. Other important gold and copper-gold deposits occur near Likely, in the southwestern part of the Cariboo district. A new open-pit copper-gold deposit on Mount Polley, located 9 km southeast of Likely, is expected to be put into production soon. Measured reserves are 49 million tonnes grading 0.38% copper and 0.54 g/t gold. Inferred reserves are 230 million tonnes grading 0.25% copper and 0.34 g/t gold.

Cross Lake Minerals - Property Summary for Porcher Island -
The Porcher Island Property is located in the Skeena Mining Division, 35 kilometres south-southwest of Prince Rupert, British Columbia. There is a long history of exploration and production from the Property which includes the Surf Point and Edye Pass mines. Porcher Island is a joint venture between Cross Lake as to 65% and Imperial Metals Corp as to 35%.
Historic records indicate that a total of 77,952 tons grading 0.29 oz/t gold was produced up to 1937 until fire destroyed the mill. From 1975 to 1988 extensive exploration by E and B Exploration and Cathedral Gold Corporation resulted in a drill outlined mining reserve of 623,095 tons grading (cut and diluted) 0.20 oz/t gold over an average mining width of 11 feet.
Within this resource there are significant high grade intercepts which contain multi ounce material over mineable widths. A deep drilling program indicated the potential for an additional 900,000 tons at similar grades to a depth of 1,000 feet below surface in the AT Zone. The exploration results and resources referred to above are historical in nature and were compiled before NI-43-101.

Vancouver's Cross Lake Minerals joined the ranks of Canadian gold producers on Tuesday with the launch of a 1,000 tonne per day mill and processing facility at its QR Mine.
PRETORIA, South Africa (ResourceInvestor.com) -- The pieces necessary to move Vancouver-based Cross Lake Minerals [TSX:CRN] into the ranks of British Columbia's gold producers came together last Tuesday, Sept. 11. Ten years after being decommissioned by then owner-operator Kinross Gold Corp. [NYSE:KGC; TSX:K], Cross Lake Minerals has completely refurbished a mill and processing facility and is now feeding 900 tonnes of ore per day through a crushing, grinding and milling circuit at its QR Mine near Quesnel, British Columbia.
"This is obviously a major accomplishment for Cross Lake. I would like to acknowledge the contribution to the successful completion of the restarting of the QR Mine of Ross Hollinger, Mine Manager, Lloyd Penner Assistant Mine Manager, Tom Colbourne, Vice President of Mining and Jim Miller-Tait, Vice President of Exploration," Gordon Keevil, Cross Lake Minerals' president stated in a media release.
"We will continue to strive towards meeting our ongoing operations goals and are now in a position to move our other development project, Porcher Island Gold, forward and evaluate other projects that will complement the QR Mine."
Building a Production Base
"Ore is being stockpiled from the Northwest Zone and underground development and ore exploration is well underway on the West Zone and the as yet defined North Zone," Keevil told Resource Investor shortly before the public announcement of the mill's launch.
The potential to develop a mining operation at Porcher Island fits right in with management's strategy of increasing shareholder value by increasing the number of gold ounces owned per share. Pursuant, Cross Lake is building a production base in British Columbia around its Cariboo, Porcher Island and QR Mine holdings and the newly refurbished mill and processing facility.
On Sept. 5 management announced results of a diamond drill program at Porcher Island 35 kilometers south-southwest of Prince Rupert Island that included identification of three distinct zones of high-grade gold mineralization and intersection of ore grading 54.3 g/t gold over a 3.4 metre section (media release).
News From Porcher Island
The latest results from Porcher Island are in-line and in some instances better than historic results from extensive drilling carried out between 1975 and 1988 in the AT Zone of the property, which is located within the island's Skeena Mining Division.
"We are yet to receive all the drilling results from the assay lab. Once in, we will complete a detailed compilation and study under the direction of Jim Miller-Tait, VP Exploration and Tom Colbourne, VP Mining," Keevil reported. "The next phase of operations will certainly be further drilling and the commencement of preliminary scoping analyses."
The current drilling program is being carried out to better define and expand on historic drilling results that outlined a mining reserve of 623,095 tonnes at a cut and diluted grade of 0.20 oz/t gold over an average mining width of 11 feet.
This year's drilling has also resulted in May reporting of the discovery of the Cedar Vein Zone parallel to and north of the AT vein system. "With the discovery of the Cedar Vein all these untested vein systems must be considered significant and will now be studied in detail and tested by surface, and if available, underground exploration and drilling," management stated in a media release.
"A program of geochemical exploration using the Mobile Metal Ions (MMI) technique is being planned over the sub-crop of the Cedar Vein area to test if this type of soil sampling will work in the ground conditions that exist on the west side of Porcher Island."
QR Mining & Mill Commissioning
If mining proves feasible at Porcher Island, ore can be transported and fed into the QR Mine mill and processing facility, where more than 118,000 ounces were produced between 1995 and 1998 when it was owned and managed by the Kinross Gold Corp.
Ultimately the North Zone, which is being accessed by an underground decline for delineation drilling and mine planning, is expected to contribute to long term operations. The decline will be completed shortly, which will be followed by underground drilling," management reported in its Sept. 5 media release.
QR's current defined resource base comes in at more than 900,000 tonnes of ore at a weighted average grade of 3.1 g/t, or approximately 85,000 ounces, according to Cross Lake.
BC Hydro began delivering electrical power to the property in July, which enabled Cross Lake to finalize its plans for mill rehabilitation and the commencement of mining. Cross Lake has a 42-man camp complete with administrative and operations support facilities at the QR site.
Financial Matters
Two private placements completed earlier this year provided the capital Cross Lake needs to start up operations at QR and follow through with its plans to further explore and define a resource base at Porcher Island. Management last year completed a 1-for-5 share consolidation in conjunction with the $11 million financing.
"When we acquired the QR additional exploration was conducted to confirm, extend and evaluate the known zones and explore for new zones," Keevil explained. "We also needed better gold prices than those since 2006 in Canadian dollars to allow us to raise the funds to proceed with the two phase program and starting the mine with the existing resource as outlined in the Wardrop Report and commence underground development to allow for the delineation and mine planning of the North Zone."
"Gold prices have continue to improve so we are very pleased at this time with the timing of operations…With the current gold prices we are projected to generate excellent revenue once operations have been achieved at the QR and will make us of this revenue to maximize shareholder value through development of the existing projects and acquisitions as justified," he concluded.
