Legend Pierre Lassonde Has Been Aggressively Buying This Mining Stock, His Top Pick For 2021
Legend Pierre Lassonde has been aggressively buying this mining stock, his top pick for 2021. Lassonde is arguably the greatest company builder in the history of the mining sector. He is past President of Newmont Mining, former Chairman of the World Gold Council and former Chairman of Franco Nevada. Lassonde is one of the wealthiest, most respected individuals in the gold world, and as always King World News would like to thank him for sharing his wisdom with our global readers during this critical period in these markets.
Great Value In Mining Stocks
Eric King: “Pierre, some of these large cap mining stocks have become value plays. And there is even more value as you start to go down the line, particularly into some of the smaller stocks. We invest alongside each other and we have been buying a company called America’s Gold & Silver. I invested 7 figures into that (stock), Pierre, and I know you own 5% of the company.”
America’s Gold & Silver: All Of The Upside For Free
Pierre Lassonde: “In the mid-cap (mining stock space) there are a number of stocks that I really like. And I like stocks that have a lot of optionally values. Meaning that you are buying the existing asset but then you are getting all of the upside for free.
The Discovery Of A New Silver Zone
And America’s Gold & Silver (symbol USAS in the United States and USA in Canada) is one of those where if you look at the results that they’ve been putting out on their Galena property, the intercepts that they are seeing, and the discovery of the new silver zone in the hundreds of grams per tonne (800-900 grams per tonne silver), I mean it is fascinating, it is really interesting. Plus there is like 2%-5% copper on top of that. And so in terms of equivalent, you are looking at 40+ ounces of gold equivalent per tonne. Well that’s like $1,000+ per tonne material, like something the ‘old timers’ would see. Plus they are finally getting good results at Relief Canyon — their gold project.
Unlocking Value
And it looks like they are finally going to get started back in Mexico. They are getting agreements done with all of the various parties. They are finally getting that sorted out with the help of the federal government. So things are finally coming together and the stock is selling for less than .4 NAV (Net Asset Value). Well, I love buying a thing for 40 cents on the dollar and then being able to sell them at full (plus rising) NAV. And that’s why I’ve been saying to you that it’s a great deal and why I’ve been picking up stock in the market. And yes, I do own about 5% of the company.”

Americas Gold and Silver Announces Strategic Joint Venture With Mr. Eric Sprott at the Galena Complex
T.USA |
Americas Gold and Silver Corporation (TSX: USA) (NYSE American: USAS) (“Americas” or the “Company”), a growing North American precious metals producer, today announces a strategic joint venture agreement (the “Agreement”) with Mr. Eric Sprott to recapitalize the mining operations at the Galena Complex, located in the Silver Valley of Northwest Idaho.
The strategic joint venture – expected to be 60/40 Americas/Sprott respectively – will allow Americas to increase development, modernize infrastructure, purchase new mining equipment, and target exploration below current operating areas with the goal of positioning the Galena Complex to significantly increase resources, production, and reduce operating costs at the mine over the next two years.
Effective October 1, 2019, Mr. Sprott through 2176423 Ontario Ltd., a corporation which is beneficially owned by him, will initially commit up to US$20 million to fund capital improvements and operations for the first year to earn a 40 percent interest in the Company’s Galena Complex. Americas will invest an additional US$5 million to fund further capital improvements in 2020.
After the first year of operations under the Agreement, the parties will revert to their percentage ownership interests to fund capital projects and operations as required in proportion to those interests.
Oversight of the joint venture will consist of 2 nominees from Americas and 1 nominee by Mr. Sprott. Americas will continue to manage the day-to-day operations so long as it retains an interest in the joint venture.
“We are thrilled to partner with Eric Sprott on this joint venture. He is already the single largest shareholder in Americas; with this new venture, we are further solidifying our relationship with him”, said Darren Blasutti, President and CEO of Americas Gold and Silver. “We look forward to putting his significant investment into developing the Galena Complex to benefit all our stakeholders in the coming months and transforming the Galena Complex into a leading US-based, profitable silver producer.”
Due to low silver prices and limited capital available from the capital markets for silver operational improvements since 2012, Americas has spent minimal funds at the Galena Complex to replace worn equipment, update aging infrastructure, stope development, and exploration. Americas is currently allocating all its available capital to re-start the Relief Canyon mine in Nevada, which is scheduled to begin producing gold in late Q4, 2019. The Relief Canyon mine is targeted to increase the Company’s precious metal production by approximately 500% by 2021. In 2017 and 2018, the Company focused available capital on developing the San Rafael mine in Mexico which this year became a significant free-cash flow generating asset.
The Galena Complex possesses significant operational optionality and leverage to silver prices. The mine has between 1,250 and 1,500 tons of daily milling capacity though it is currently processing only 500 tons per day, five days a week. It produces between 0.8 M to 1.0 M silver ounces annually at high costs as a result of lower throughput, reduced operational flexibility and old equipment. The current proven and probable silver reserve includes 12.4 million ounces, a further measured and indicated silver resource of 27.4 million ounces and an inferred silver resource of approximately 39.0 million ounces (exclusive of lead and copper resources). Though this operational base is a strong starting point for comparable silver mines, a capital redevelopment of the asset is required to best exploit the existing resources, improve operational performance, and capitalize on expected higher silver prices. Further, Americas and Mr. Sprott believe there are substantially more silver resources to be discovered at better grades along extensions of existing veins and at depth.
Americas believes that the significant investment and joint venture announced today with Mr. Sprott will allow the parties to develop the Galena Complex into a long-term, profitable mine, including to take full advantage of the recent move in silver price. The Company needed an outside partner who not only shared the same vision for the current upside and leverage embedded at the Galena Complex but was willing to commit capital to systematically explore for deeper level, high-grade targets that may transform the mine into an important silver producer in the medium to long-term. Further, with the only operating mine in the Silver Valley, the joint venture will be well-positioned to take advantage of any consolidation opportunities which may evolve in the District.
Other material provisions of the Agreement include (i) standard dilution if a party does not contribute its proportionate share of costs; (ii) penalty dilution if a party defaults in contributing its share of costs; (iii) a party’s interest in the joint venture is converted to a 5% net proceeds interest if that party’s percentage interest falls below 10%; and (iv) each party has a pre-emptive right to acquire the other party’s interest should that party desire to sell its interest in the joint venture.
Medalist Capital Ltd acted as financial advisor to both parties with respect to the transaction.

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors:
The terms “proven and probable silver reserve”, “silver resource”, “measured silver resource”, “indicated silver resource”, and “inferred silver resource” used in the press release are mining terms used in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects under the guidelines set out in the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Standards. Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
While the terms “mineral resource”, “measured mineral resource”, “indicated mineral resource”, and “inferred mineral resource” are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, they are not defined terms under standards in the United States and normally are not permitted to be used in reports and registration statements filed with the Securities & Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Moreover, the definitions of proven and probable reserves used in NI 43-101 differ from the definitions in the United States Securities and Exchange Commission's Industry Guide 7. As such, information contained in the Company's disclosure concerning descriptions of mineralization, reserves and resources under Canadian standards may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S companies in SEC filings. With respect to “inferred mineral resource” there is a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and a great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an “inferred mineral resource” will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into reserves.

Interview: Darren Blasutti, Americas Silver - 121 Mining Investment London 2019 -
Very good update.
Americas Silver looking to gold Relief -
Americas Silver Corporation says mobilisation of the mining contractor
at Relief Canyon in Nevada is imminent and other key works remain on
track to enable a maiden gold pour from the US$30 million heap leach
project before the end of 2019.
Progress at the former Pershing Gold site, set to become a significant
producer next year, is a plus for the company that saw AISC for its
mainstay silver business blow out to US$16.15/oz in the June quarter.
Americas Silver looking to gold Relief
Relief Canyon gold mine near Lovelock in Nevada, USA
https://www.mining-journal.com/gold-and-silver-news/news/1368522/americas-silver-looking-to-gold-relief
Relief Canyon, added to Americas Silver's portfolio when it acquired
Pershing earlier this year, is forecast to produce more than
90,000oz a year for 5.5 years at AISC of about US$800/oz, making what
CEO Darren Blasutti has been indicating will be a material difference
to the company's cash flow and market standing.
"The high-return Relief Canyon project is … expected to catalyse a
rerating of the share price and increase the liquidity of the company's
shares as a larger, precious metal-focused company with operations
focused in North America" he has said.
Americas Silver said this week construction of the Relief Canyon leach
pad was 80% done and progressing as expected, the mining contractor was
due to mobilise early in August, and all crusher and conveyor
fabrication work was on track to meet scheduled delivery in the third
quarter.
Upgrading of an existing processing plant was underway.
Ore placement is scheduled to run at more than six million tons a year.
Previous mining at Relief Canyon meant Pershing, and now
Americas Silver, inherited significant infrastructure that probably
carved 50-70% off the pre-production capex for a comparable, new
operation.
The mine is near Lovelock and about 100 miles north-east of Reno.
Sandstorm Gold will receive about 32,000oz of Relief Canyon gold over
5.5 years under its US$42.5 million mine financing deal.
Americas Silver produced 345,695oz of silver and about 1.7 million
ounces silver-equivalent (including zinc and lead) in the 2019 June
quarter, up 15% year-on-year but with AISC up 200% yoy and compared
with the first quarter this year due to "lower realized prices for zinc
and lead and lower production at the Galena Complex [in Idaho]".
Silver output in the first half of 2019 was 740,000oz/3.4Moz silver-
equivalent at AISC of $10.50/oz and Americas Silver has maintained
full-year guidance at 1.6-2Moz/6.6-7Moz silver-equivalent at $10-12/oz
AISC.
The company's second quarter financials are due out by August 14.
"The company remains on target to achieve its full year production and
cost guidance despite the expected lower production from
the Galena Complex and lower realized metal prices in the quarter,"
Blasutti said.
"The second half of 2019 will be a very exciting period for our company
as we expect not only higher silver production, but most importantly,
first gold pour from the Relief Canyon mine."
Americas Silver's (TSX: USA) share price is up by more than two-thirds
since the start of this year, capitalising the company at more than
C$300 million.

“The Company had strong cash flow growth during San Rafael’s ramp-up to full production in 2018 despite the significant decrease in metal prices in the second half of the year,” said Darren Blasutti, President & CEO of Americas Silver. “With the Pershing Gold shareholder votes behind us, we are looking forward to closing the Transaction immediately after CFIUS approval. We expect a concurrent Board construction approval and announcement of fully-funded financing for the Relief Canyon project. The combined company will be focused on increasing silver production and bringing Relief Canyon to first pour before the end of the 2019.”
Pershing Gold Acquisition Update
Respective shareholders of Americas Silver and Pershing Gold provided the requisite approvals for the previously announced Transaction between the two companies on January 9, 2019. The Transaction is currently awaiting regulatory approval from CFIUS. The Company views discussions with CFIUS as progressing well and expects that the necessary approvals before the end of the first quarter.

Eric Sprott
On May 20, 2016 Americas Silver Corp (OTCQX:USAPF) announced a private placement with Eric Sprott and other strategic shareholders. The gross proceeds are estimated at around C$20 million.
This small silver / base metals miner emerged in late 2014 from a merger between Scorpio Mining and U.S. Silver and Gold Inc. In 2015 the company produced 2.7 million ounces of silver, large amounts of zinc and lead and small amount of copper:

15 Facts About The Imploding U.S. Economy The Media Doesn't Want You To See
The following are 15 facts about the imploding U.S. economy that the mainstream media doesn't want you to see...
1. Industrial production has now declined for nine months in a row. We have never seen this happen outside of a recession in all of U.S. history.
2. U.S. commercial bankruptcies have risen on a year over year basis for seven months in a row and are now up 51 percent since September.
3. The delinquency rate on commercial and industrial loans has been rising since January 2015.
4. Total business sales in the United States have been steadily dropping since the middle of 2014. No, I did not say 2015. Total business sales have been in decline for nearly two years now, and we just found out that they dropped again...
Total business sales in the US did in April what they've been doing since July 2014: they dropped: -2.9% from a year ago, to $1.28 trillion (not adjusted for seasonal differences and price changes), the Censuses Bureau reported on Tuesday. That's where sales had been in April 2013!

#USAPF: On May 20, 2016 Americas Silver Corp (OTCQX:USAPF) announced a private placement with Eric Sprott and other strategic shareholders. The gross proceeds are estimated at around C$20 million.
http://seekingalpha.com/article/3977415-2-transitional-resource-companies-insider-buying#alt3
This small silver / base metals miner emerged in late 2014 from a merger between Scorpio Mining and U.S. Silver and Gold Inc. In 2015 the company produced 2.7 million ounces of silver, large amounts of zinc and lead and small amount of copper:
As the chart shows, Americas Silver production (and sales) is split between silver (a precious metal) and base metals.
Well, Americas Silver cannot be called, by any means, a great company. Since its merger in 2013, it has been unprofitable. However, this situation seems to be changing. For the better.
In 1Q 2016 the company was losing "only" $3.11 on each ounce of silver equivalent sold (in 1Q 2015 it was a huge loss of $9.44!). This improvement is attributable to higher prices of silver and lower costs of production. For example, all-in sustaining cost per ounce of silver went down from $19.57 in 1Q 2015 to $14.92 in 1Q 2016 (a decrease of 23.8%). As a result, the Cosala mine, an operation located in Mexico, delivered operating profit of $350 thousand in 1Q 2016. The second mine, Galena (Idaho, USA), was still unprofitable (a loss of $22 thousand).
However, the company is going to perform much better in the not so far future. First of all, Americas Silver has a large mineral base. At the end of 2015 it was holding silver reserves of 31.1 million ounces. Add to that figure the measured and indicated resources of 50.1 million ounces and 37.1 million ounces of inferred resources and the total mineral base amounts to 118.3 million ounces of silver. Well, in my opinion, Americas Silver's mineral base is quite impressive, comparable to such established silver miners as, for example, Endeavour Silver (122.5 million ounces of silver at the end of 2015).
Further, at its Cosala mine the company is transitioning the operations from the Nuestra Senora deposit to San Rafael. This new deposit should deliver much more base metals than previously (silver production should be, more or less, unchanged). For example, San Rafael should be delivering 45.5 million pounds of zinc a year (in 2015 Cosala delivered "only" 11.6 million pounds of zinc).
Generally, the San Rafael project shows a pre-tax internal rate of return of 27%, calculated using the price of silver of $16 per ounce.
Summing up - in the nearest future the following catalysts should have a positive impact on Americas Silver performance:
Higher production (chart below) Lower production costs Shifting production at Cosala to the San Rafael deposit (expected in 2017)
A private placement, announced on May 20, should fuel the company with cash of C$20 million. In the case of Americas Silver, it is a huge amount of cash. In my opinion, at the end of 1Q 2016 the company was short of cash (it held only C$2.1 million in cash). To transition its production to San Rafael, Americas Silver needs around C$28 million in initial capital costs - the private placement should cover most of these expenditures. The remaining capital should be delivered from mining operations - in 1Q 2016 the company was able to generate cash flow from operations (without working capital issues) of C$1.2 million. I think that higher silver prices plus lower costs of production should result in higher cash flow from operations, which is going to fill the financing gap at San Rafael.
Summary
Once again both notable resource investors, Ross Beaty and Eric Sprott, made surprising investments. Neither Anfield Gold nor Americas Silver are well known and established companies. However, these two investors surely see some potential in these miners. Of course, the exact reasons standing behind these purchases are known only to Ross Beaty and Eric Sprott but let me summarize these deals:
Both companies operate in established mining jurisdictions: Anfield in Brazil and Americas Silver in Mexico and the USA Both miners are in sort of transition periods: Anfield has just acquired a property in Brazil and Americas Silver is rapidly increasing its production and cutting production costs Both companies are busy with implementing new projects: Coringa at Anfield and San Rafael at Americas Silver At this stage of development both companies are quite risky (although, in my opinion, the investment in Anfield bears much higher risk - this company is not an operating miner).
Last but not least - the timing of these purchases is worth emphasizing. My readers know my point of view on the gold market. In my opinion, it is currently in its first stage of a bull run. However, it is very hard to predict the direction of any market. After its initial rally, the gold market is hesitating now and many investors are trying to guess what is in the cards. Ross Beaty and Eric Sprott are not guessing - they are still buying…
Note: I strongly encourage my readers to visit my blog. It is a continuation of my Seeking Alpha activity where you will find the articles posted on a daily basis.
Eric Sprott is big time precious metals investor so USAPF is probably a good place to be in this sector.
Thanks for sharing. One of the most positive articles on Americas in quite awhile.
