Golden Star Resourses evt. vor Bodenbildung

G.S. finde ich momentan Chart-technisch ziemlich spannend.
Sieht so aus, als würde sich jetzt eine Bodenbildung nach dem Ausverkauf abzeichnen.
Habe erstmal einen ordentlichen Schwung Goldsterne ins Depot aufgenommen, zumal es an der Amex auch interessante Umsätze gab.
Wenn Gold den alten Trend wieder aufnimmt und in Richtung 2800-3000 USD klettert, dann sollte man sich hier als Aktionär auch nicht ärgern müssen.

guten Wert aus dem Goldboden gegraben. Am besten gefällt mir die Restrukturierung und Kostenreduktion der Minen auf 1050-1150$ per Oz. Das sollte sich in den nächsten Quartalen bemerkbar machen und für steigende Kurse sorgen. Bleibt nur zu hoffen das der Goldpreis uns nicht einen Strich durch die Rechnung macht.  

Korrekturen gehören dazu, der Gold-Aufwärtstrend war ja wirklich recht steil und wenn der Mainstream da einen "CRASH" sieht, dann ist das m.M.n. ein ordentliches Kaufsignal.
Schaun wir mal.

Es gibt im Minen-Sektor momentan haufenweise erfreuliche Nachrichten (Produktionssteigerungen, Kostensenkungen ect.), aber der Pessimismus ist derzeit so groß, dass sich dies nicht in den Kursen widerspiegelt.
 

http://www.marketwatch.com/story/...tion-results-2013-10-03-101732426

Highlights sind: weiter steigende Produktionsrate, Restrukturierung und Kostensenkungen laufen planmäßig, Cashreserven machen fast die Hälfte der derzeitgen MK aus.

 

jetzt wieder an. Ma schaun wie nachhaltig das diesmal wird. Vielleicht gibt es ja ne kleine Jahresendrally bei den Minern. Wäre schon zu wünschen nach den Prügelattacken der letzten Monate.  

bin schon gespannt auf die Zahlen Anfang November.
Wenn sich die Äußerungen vom Management bewahrheiten und die Kostensenkungen nachhaltig sind, können wir uns die nächsten Quartale über schöne Gewinne freuen, da der Goldpreis aufsteigende Tendenz hat.

Die Goldproduktion ist laut letzter Meldung in diesem Quartal wieder ordentlich gesteigert worden, wichtig ist jetzt nur die Kosten auf die anvisierten 1050-1150 Oz zu drücken.

TORONTO, ON--(Marketwired - Nov 4, 2013) - Golden Star Resources Ltd. (NYSE MKT: GSS) (TSX: GSC) (GHANA: GSR) ("Golden Star" or the "Company") today reported its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 ("the third quarter" or "the period"). All references to currency are to US dollars.

Highlights of these results are as follows:

   Gold sold during the third quarter was 88,925 ounces, bringing year to date gold sold to 255,377 ounces
   Company now expects to exceed previously provided guidance and sell approximately 325,000 to 330,000 ounces in 2013
   Consolidated cash operating cost per ounce was $960 for the third quarter, compared to $1,078 per ounce for the second quarter of 2013. This third consecutive quarter of operating savings is primarily due to the implementation of cost-saving initiatives, additional production from the low cost tailings reclaim facility as well as improved access to ore in the Bogoso North and Chujah pits
   Net income attributable to shareholders for the third quarter is $3.5M or 1 cent per share
   Cash flow provided by operations per share of 8 cents for the third quarter, compared from 11 cents per share in the second quarter 2013
   Consolidated cash was $66.6 million as at September 30, 2013 with a further $40 million available in existing financing agreement
   Additional production from the tailings reclaim facility is yielding positive results and is expected to continue for at least another five years
   Investment in the push backs at both Chujah and Bogoso North pits continues to improve access to ore, the stripping ratio and consequently mine operating costs expected to further reduce in 2014
   A successful public hearing was held at Prestea South during the third quarter allowing the permitting process to advance

Sam Coetzer, President and CEO of Golden Star, commented:

"The third quarter of 2013 was another strong operational quarter for the Company, as we continued to increase our consolidated gold production and lower our costs. Primarily as a result of improved production from Bogoso, we have increased our production guidance for 2013. Reducing the cost of our operations remains a critical element of the Company's near term strategy. We are proud to have lowered mine operating expenses for the third consecutive quarter. Consolidated cash operating costs per ounce also reduced 11% quarter-over-quarter, and most encouragingly our cash operating costs per ounce at Bogoso decreased by 29%. We expect to see further improvements in this regard. Our balance sheet remains strong, with over $67 million in cash and another $40 million available from our existing financing agreement. With strong production, reducing costs and a sound balance sheet, I am confident that we will conclude 2013 on a very positive note."

Conference Call

The Company will host a conference call, which will be webcast, to discuss these results at 10:00 am Eastern Time today, Monday 4 November 2013.

TORONTO, ON--(Marketwired - Nov 7, 2013) - Golden Star Resources Ltd. (NYSE MKT: GSS) (TSX: GSC) (GHANA: GSR) ("Golden Star" or the "Company") is pleased to announce an updated Mineral Resource for the Wassa Main pit as at September 30, 2013.

Highlights of this announcement are as follows:

   Indicated Mineral Resources increased to 46.4 million tonnes with an average grade of 1.75 g/t Au for 2.6 million ounces and are inclusive of Mineral Reserves
   This is a 28% increase in grade and a 13% increase in tonnes over the Indicated Mineral Resources as at December 31, 2012
   Company is evaluating the alternative of mining a higher grade portion of this resource at depth using underground methods which could enhance overall project economics
   New infill drilling program to commence shortly on deeper high grade zone to identify underground potential

Sam Coetzer, President and CEO of Golden Star, commented:

"We are excited about the new resource estimate at Wassa Main. Compared to year end 2012, Indicated Mineral Resource grade has increased 28% and tonnes have increased 13%, resulting in a 45% increase in gold ounces. The updated Mineral Resource has been estimated using a more conservative gold price assumption and includes the year-to-date mining depletion. This Mineral Resource increase has significantly enhanced the prospectivity of the deposit at Wassa Main and we are in the process of determining how best to mine this resource to optimize cash flow. In addition to looking at this resource from the perspective of a large open pit, our technical teams are evaluating a combined open pit and underground mining alternative. The Company will commence a new infill drilling program to better define the continuity and geometry of the deeper high-grade zone."

Wassa is located in the southwestern region of Ghana. It has a single non-refractory processing plant consisting of a carbon-in-leach system with a capacity of 2.7 million tonnes per annum. There are currently two operational pits at Wassa -- the Wassa Main pit and the Father Brown pit.

MINERAL RESOURCES

Indicated Mineral Resources for Wassa Main (inclusive of Mineral Reserves) increased to 46.4 million tonnes at an average grade of 1.75 grams per tonne gold (g/t Au) for 2.6 million ounces. This does not include the Indicated Mineral Resource at the Father Brown pit which has not been updated since 31 December 2012 and was at that date 2.5 million tonnes at an average grade of 3.43 g/t Au for 0.28 million ounces.

The drilling program at Wassa Main was completed in June of this year and the Company has updated the Mineral Resource estimate with these results. The updated Wassa Main Mineral Resource has been constrained between the September 2013 month end mining surface and a $1,400/oz gold price optimized pit shell. It included data from 269 new holes totaling over 93,000 meters. Mineral Resources were also estimated at economic cut-off grades based on a gold price of $1,400 per ounce and on other economic parameters deemed realistic (as set forth in the notes below the following table). Mineral Reserves for Wassa Main will be updated at year end.

The Mineral Resource has been estimated by a third party consultant and reviewed by the Company's technical personnel in accordance with definitions and guidelines set out in the Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves published by the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy, and Petroleum and as required by Canada's National Instrument 43-101.

Table A

Inferred 323   1.32   14   12,857   1.61   664

Notes to the Indicated & Inferred Mineral Resources:
1. The above Mineral Resource as at 31 December 2012 has been restated to include Mineral Reserves so as to provide a direct comparison to the September 30 2013 Mineral Resource estimate which is inclusive of Mineral Reserves
2. The Mineral Resources were estimated in accordance with the definitions and requirements of Canada's National Instrument 43-101. The Mineral Resources are equivalent to Mineralized Material as defined by the Industry Guide 7 of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").
3. The Mineral Resources were estimated using optimized pit shells at a gold price of $1,400 per ounce inclusive of the Mineral Reserves as at December 31, 2012. In 2012 we used a gold price assumption of $1,450 to estimate Mineral Reserves and an assumption of $1,750 to estimate Mineral Resources. The updated open pit Mineral Resources were constrained using the deepest mined surface for the end of Q3 2013.
4. The 2013 Mineral Resources are reported above an economic cutoff grade of 0.62 g/t Au for weathered oxide material and 0.68 g/t Au for fresh rock. The 2012 cut off grades used were 0.55 g/t Au for weathered oxide material and 0.60 g/t Au for fresh rock.
5. The Qualified Person reviewing and validating the estimation of the mineral resources is S. Mitchel Wasel, Golden Star Resources Vice President of Exploration.
6. Numbers may not add due to rounding.

Figure 1 presents an isometric view looking north-east of the resource model showing block grades greater than 2.5g/t Au.

UNDERGROUND EVALUATION

In addition to reporting the Wassa Mineral Resource within a large open pit, the Company is also evaluating an alternative of mining a higher grade portion of the Mineral Resource at depth using underground methods. Pursuing this alternative may allow the Company to access this material at depth earlier in the life of mine of this deposit.

A concept level study was undertaken that split the Mineral Resource model into an upper and lower portion. Pit optimizations were run on the upper portion using the same parameters as the Mineral Resource stipulated in Table A. The lower portion of the Mineral Resource model was then reported outside of the smaller optimized pit at a calculated underground cutoff grade of 2.5 g/t Au and reclassified based upon the more selective criteria needed in underground mining.

Results for potential open pit and underground material in this scenario are as follows:

Table B
    $1,400 Open Pit   Potential Underground Resource   Total
Class   Tonnes
(000)   Grade
g/t   Ounces
(000)   Tonnes
(000)   Grade
g/t   Ounces
(000)   Tonnes
(000)   Grade
g/t   Ounces
(000)
                                   
Indicated   28,106   1.56   1,405   4,431   4.31   613   32,537   1.93   2,019
Inferred   30   1.51   1   2,659   3.70   316   2,689   3.68   318

The underground alternative is conceptual in nature and requires additional drilling and studies to determine the economic viability of underground mining of the deeper, higher grade portion of the Wassa Main Mineral Resource. However, there is no assurance that the Company will determine it economically feasible or otherwise appropriate to pursue this alternative of underground mining at Wassa Main, and there is no guarantee that the underground alternative is viable. The Company has plans to conduct further internal studies on this mining alternative.

das sind doch mal super News!
Hier geht es bald richtig ab  

mit GSS und das bei diesem Goldpreisumfeld. Was passiert wenn Gold anfängt zu steigen?

Uns kanns egal sein, da GSS hoffentlich ab jetzt deutlich unter 1200$ fördert.  

aber mein persönlicher Top-Performer ist OSISKO, da sind wir noch lange nicht am Ende der Fahnenstange angekommen!
http://www.wallstreet-online.de/nachricht/...-haelt-goldcorps-angebot

wenn die sich auf 5,80€/Aktie einigen will ich nicht meckern.  

wenn Gold einmal ausbricht dann flippt die Münze hier aber richtig.

Osisko ist sicherlich auch ein starker Titel, ist aber auch schon knapp 2 Mrd wert. Klar kann durch eine Übernahme nochmal ne Menge rausspringen aber GSS ist mit knapp 200 Millionen noch lange nicht da wo sie hingehören.

Ein anderer Favorit von mir ist Belo Sun Mining (BSX.TO) mit ca. 100 Mio$Can Bewertung und einem HighGrade Projekt von über 7 Mio. Unzen. Spekuliere hier auch übe rkurz oder lang mit einer Übernahme durch einen Majorplayer.  

sehen wohl bald Kurse über 1,0....

Golden Star Resources Ltd.: Wassa Drilling Program Extends High Grade Mineralized Zone 250 Meters to the South
Marketwired
Golden Star Resources Ltd. 16 hours ago

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Jan 30, 2014) - Golden Star Resources Ltd. ("Golden Star" or the "Company") (GSC.TO)(NYSE MKT:GSS)(GHANA:GSR) today provides an update on exploration activities at its Wassa gold mine in Ghana.

Highlights of this announcement are as follows:

   Step out drilling confirms that Wassa ore body is open down plunge
   Significant grades and widths intercepted up to 250 m south of previously known mineralization
       BSDD 290B - 18.5 m grading 6.8 g/t Au
       BSDD 295M - 20.3 m grading 3.5 g/t Au
   Infill drilling shows wide zones of significant grades between existing high grade drill intercepts
       BSDD 296 - 19.9 m grading 15.3 g/t Au
       BSDD 299 - 38.2 m grading 3.5 g/t Au
       BSDD 298A - 58.6 m grading 4.0 g/t Au
   Current drilling program expected to be completed and assays received by mid-2014
   Preliminary economic assessment of underground mining at Wassa to commence shortly

Sam Coetzer, President and CEO of Golden Star commented:

"We are very encouraged by the results from the deep drilling program at Wassa announced today, which adds support to our long held view of Wassa's remarkable potential. Both the step out and infill drill results continue to indicate that significant additional resources exist to the south of the current Wassa Main pit, where a high grade underground mine could be developed. Our current resource of 2.6 million ounces is over a strike length of 1050 meters. Step out hole BSDD295M is 250 meters down strike from the existing resource. A conceptual study, completed in 2013, found underground mining of this high grade deposit to be economically viable and these drill results further support these findings. We expect to complete this phase of drilling by mid-2014 and the results of the drilling program combined with the planned preliminary economic assessment, will allow us to make a decision on a full feasibility study."

The Wassa gold mine is in the western region of Ghana. It has a carbon-in-leach processing plant with a rated capacity of 2.7 million tonnes per annum. There are currently two operational pits at Wassa - the Wassa Main pit and the Father Brown pit. In 2014, we plan to complete mining in the Father Brown pit by the second quarter; thereafter mining will be from the Wassa Main pit.

In November 2013, the Company announced an increased Indicated Mineral Resource estimate at Wassa of 46.4 million tonnes at an average grade of 1.75 g/t Au for 2.6 million ounces. This was subsequent to the completion of a drilling program in June 2013. Further drilling has been ongoing since November 2013. Full drill results, plans, and sections from the drilling program are available at www.gsr.com/Operations/Wassa.asp. Drilling widths in this press release are estimated true widths in meters ("m") and grades are grams of gold per tonne ("g/t Au").

The current drilling program at Wassa is focused on two goals - approximately 20,000 m of infill drilling of the current resource to further define grades and continuity and step out drilling on 200 meter drill fences to the south to determine the extension of the high grade mineralization below the current Wassa Main pit design. This drilling program forms the bulk of Wassa's $6 million development capital budget for 2014.

Step out Drilling

Since the initiation of this drilling campaign in November 2013, two step out holes have been successful in extending the mineralized trend to the south of the Wassa Main pit. Hole BSDD290B drilled on section 19500 N, 50 m to the south of the last drilling, intersected 18.5 m at 6.8 g/t Au from 530 m drilled depth; and hole BSDD295M on section 19300 N, 200 m to the south, intersected 20.3 m at 3.5 g/t Au from 649.4 m drilled depth. These high grade intersections, up to 250 m to the south of previous drilling, indicate that the Wassa deposit remains open down plunge and demonstrate the potential to develop a high grade resource at depth.

Infill Drilling

Several of the infill drill holes have confirmed wide zones of elavated grades between existing high grade drill intercepts. Drill holes BSDD291, BSDD293, BSDD294, BSDD297 and BSDD298A were planned follow-up holes delineating the high grade intersections drilled previously in holes BSDD256 (52.9 m grading 4.3 g/t Au) and BSDD260 (62.8 m grading 4.1 g/t Au) located on sections 19600 N and 19675 N respectively (see the Company's press release dated July 18, 2013). Holes BSDD293, 291 and 298A all confirmed high grade mineralization including 58.6 m at 4.0 g/t Au in BSDD298A drilled 75 m down dip of hole BSDD260 on section 19675 N. Drill hole BSDD293 and BSDD291 were both drilled on 25 m step out fences south of section 19600 N and hole BSDD256.

In some instances infill drill results have intersected higher gold grades than those in earlier drill holes. Hole BSDD296 is an example of this where a 15.3 g/t Au intersection over 19.9 m was drilled between two holes with narrower widths and lower grades. Conversely, hole BSDD299 intersected lower grades with 38.2 m grading 3.5 g/t 30 m down dip of BSDD226 (32.6m grading 7.5 g/t Au) on section 19800 N.

2014 Wassa Drilling Program

The current drilling program is scheduled to be completed in the second quarter of 2014. The Company plans to update the 2013 year end Mineral Reserve and Mineral Resource estimates for Wassa in February 2014, which will not include drill results from this recent program. A revised Mineral Resource estimate for Wassa, including all results from the drilling program, is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2014.

Wassa Underground

Although the current Mineral Resource assumes a large open pit mine design at Wassa (as will the updated Mineral Reserve), the Company is considering the option of mining the higher grade portion of the Mineral Resource at depth using underground methods. Accessing this high grade material earlier in the life of mine of this deposit would bring cash flows forward and enhance the project's economics.

Using the current Mineral Resource models, which do not incorporate the recent drilling results, the Company is preparing a preliminary economic assessment of this underground mining option. Should the results of this assessment prove favourable, a full feasibility study on a potential underground mine at Wassa will commence in the third quarter of 2014.

The Company estimates that subsequent to the completion of a successful feasibility study it would take approximately 18 months to bring an underground mine at Wassa into commercial production.

Company Profile:

Golden Star is an established gold mining company that holds a 90% interest in both the Bogoso and Wassa open-pit gold mines in Ghana. Golden Star also has a 90% interest in the Prestea Underground mine in Ghana, which is currently undergoing permitting subsequent to a successful feasibility study being completed in June 2013. In 2013, Golden Star sold 331,000 ounces of gold and the Company expects to produce 295,000 to 320,000 ounces of gold in 2014.

Technical Information and Quality Control:

The technical contents of this press release have been reviewed and approved by S. Mitchel Wasel, BSc Geology, a Qualified Person pursuant to National Instrument 43-101. Mr. Wasel is Vice President of Exploration for Golden Star and an active member and Registered Chartered Professional of the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy.

The results for Wassa quoted herein are based on the analysis of saw-split HQ/NQ diamond half core or a three kilogram single stage riffle split of a nominal 25 to 30 kg Reverse Circulation chip sample which has been sampled over nominal one meter intervals (adjusted where necessary for mineralized structures). Sample preparation and analyses have been carried out at SGS Laboratories in Tarkwa (which is independent of the Company) using 1,000 gram slurry of sample and tap water which is prepared and subjected to an accelerated cyanide leach (LEACHWELL). The sample is then rolled for twelve hours before being allowed to settle. An aliquot of solution is then taken, gold extracted into Di-iso Butyl Keytone (DiBK), and determined by flame Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS). Detection Limit is 0.01 ppm.

All analytical work is subject to a systematic and rigorous Quality Assurance-Quality Control (QA-QC). At least 5% of samples are certified standards and the accuracy of the analysis is confirmed to be acceptable from comparison of the recommended and actual "standards" results. The remaining half core is stored on site for future inspection and detailed logging, to provide valuable information on mineralogy, structure, alteration patterns and the controls on gold mineralization.

Additional information on earlier drilling results and Mineral Reserve and Mineral Resource estimates at Wassa are available in the Company's National Instrument 43-101 compliant Technical Report titled "NI 43-101 Technical Report on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves Golden Star Resources Ltd, Wassa Gold Mine, Ghana, Effective Date 31st December 2012".
