Summary Description

This mine is a wholly owned LLC of a larger publicly traded corporation. It has an $6.5M 500T/day capacity mill on site (based on 20 hrs/day) that was producing gold at a rate of 0.35 troy oz per ton of head ore and silver at a rate of 1.65 troy oz per ton of head ore prior to closing due to financial mismanagement.  All major mining permits are current and in place and the mine and equipment will require only a three month ramp to restart producing concentrates and profits. Capable miners and managers ready to get back to work.

On this mine’s primary property there are 202 patented and unpatented claims which include:

• 3 advanced stage developed mines
• 3 smaller mines already proven out but not active yet
• 2 early stage exploration targets
• An operational and fully paid for mill site capable of producing 250 metric ton/day of ore based on a 10 hour day operation. Capacity could be ramped to 500 metric ton/day by adding a second shift with a permit addendum

Estimates of Mineralization based on previous drilling and testing:

• Proven Out Gold – 66,000 oz
• Proven Out Silver – 277,000 oz
• Probable Gold – 470K oz based on coring extensions of vein structure already completed
• Probable Sliver – 10.3M oz
• Te – 600K – 1M pounds (Tested by large Solar Firm over a three year period). They stated that it is 15% of the world supply of Tellurium (Te). Tellurium currently sells for over $150 a pound. It is a rare earth metal that is the primary metal used in the manufacture of solar panels
• Cu – 4.2M pounds (Based on coring done during gold/silver exploration)
• Mo – Up to 40M tons (found in Lower mine, not fully developed at this time)
• Zn and Pb – approx 1.5% of all ores contain a varied content of both minerals
• Total inferred reserve value estimated at over $1.3B at current market prices.

Growth and Expansion: There is much gold and silver left to mine and explore on this property. Expanding into the tellurium field could be extremely lucrative.

Summary Description
This company owns several of the richest mines in Colorado containing gold, silver, copper, zinc, iron and lead. The metals contained in the company’s mines and existing ore piles are used in virtually all of the world’s electronic devices from cell phones and computers to automobile electronics.

The owner is currently seeking a buyer for the entire business, or a portion thereof, to help complete construction of a “green” custom mill at the site of a rich historic mine. The closed loop high-efficiency custom mill will concentrate and separate over 90% of the precious metals from its processed ore. Leftover mine tailings will be clean and have the consistency of sand.

The owner’s business plan estimates the custom mill will be capable of producing $160mm+ per year EBITDA when in full operation. It will be the only mill in Colorado capable of processing ore from other mines in the area. There are enough client ore commitments today to run the custom mill for the next 25 years without tapping the company’s rich underground mine claims. It will take roughly 9-12 months to start production at the custom mill once funding is secured.

The historic mine owned by the company at the mill site has not been operated on an industrial level since the 1940s. Back then gold sold for $20 per ounce and its silver was largely ignored. The mine is estimated to have inferred reserves of 1.5mm oz of gold and known veins of silver up to 10 feet wide. The company’s earnings estimates become staggering once the underground resources of its mine begin to run through the mill.

Important Disclaimer: Crestone Business Group is not a licensed Security Dealer and is not involved in buying, selling or trading of securities. If a buyer wishes to purchase a portion of this company, a third party attorney or licensed security dealer will be enlisted to consummate the stock sale.

General Information
Year Established: Mines dating to 1800s, company incorporated in 2008
Employees: 7 expanding up to over 100 when in full operation
Facilities: Several historical buildings to be renovated to meet current safety and operational standards

Financials
Sale Price: Contact Broker for details
Purchase Includes: Existing mines, permits, real property, buildings and equipment
Estimated Revenue Potential: Up to $189M per year (processing 700T per day of low grade ore)
Estimated Cash Flow Potential: Up to $160M per year (processing 700T per day of low grade ore)

Market Outlook
Competition: There are several other mining companies that operate in Colorado. None are permitted to run a custom mill that can serve other mining operators.
Growth and Expansion: Dump ores will eventually be replaced with high grade ore produced from underground mines. Once high-grade underground ore has completely replaced dump ore in the mill, net cash flow is expected to increase considerably.

About the Sale
Support/Training: Seller has a management team ready to hire and willing to stay on and work for new owner for a salary
Reason for Sale: Seller has invested a considerable amount of capital but is short of what is necessary to finish the remaining permitting, construction and reconditioning projects to restart production.

Summary Description
Why go green? Many of Colorado’s roads and highways were built several decades ago and are in need of repair or replacement. Infrastructure upgrades and local construction typically generate large quantities of demolition waste. The resulting asphalt/concrete aggregate of debris has historically ended up in landfills.

The owner of this six year old recycling company on the front range of Colorado has an expanding business that recycles construction and infrastructure aggregates. They derive income from accepting concrete and asphalt debris and then process the material into high-margin resalable road base, riprap, concrete base, asphalt base, and screened rock. Recycled aggregates provide bulk, strength, and wear resistance in these applications and are used extensively in regional infrastructure and construction projects.

Year Established: Mid 2006
Employees: 5
Facilities: The business is situated on a 26 acre owned plot of real estate with building in close proximity to the city’s major freeways.
