Case Study: Online Investor Relations Success For Seabridge Gold (SA:NYSE – SEA:TSX). Forbes Now Calling For $50 Share Price

Posted by AGORACOM at 1:29 PM on Sunday, September 20th, 2009

Congratulations to our friend and recent client Rudi Fronk, President and CEO of Seabridge Gold, for receiving some serious love out of Forbes this weekend.  In an article, writer Robert Maltbie stated:

Looks Like Our Media Messaging Worked To A Charm!

Looks Like Our Media Messaging Worked To A Charm!

AGORACOM INVESTOR RELATIONS CASE STUDY: SEABRIDGE GOLD (SA:NYSE) (SEA:TSX) September 2008 – June 2009

Seabridge Gold came to AGORACOM with a mountain of gold but a molehill of brand recognition.  So we embarked on an investor relations campaign whose primary purpose was to target and educate online gold investors about the company’s incredible gold projects.  Simply put, we knew that gold and metals investors would love this story, it was simply a matter of getting the facts into their hands.  If we could execute, I knew the results would be spectacular for this unsung gold hero.

To this end, AGORACOM Investor Relations incorporated:

The Result? About $600 Million in increased Market Capitalization.  However, to be fair, I always state that AGORACOM never takes more than 1/3 of the credit or blame.  For an online investor relations program to work, you need to have these 3 critical components:

  • A great company (Seabridge Gold is an awesome company)
  • A great investor relations program (that would be us)
  • A cooperative market.  Mind you, Seabridge was able to blast ahead during Q1 2009 when the markets were cratering.

Put all of those together and you get something like this …

Thus endeth the lesson.

Posted by AGORACOM at 4:00 PM on Wednesday, September 16th, 2009

http://blog.agoracom.com/wp-admin/post.php?action=edit&post=3240

35,000 to 50,000 oz Potential Gold Production

Expansion Plans Fully Funded From Operating Cash Flow

AGORACOM Client, New Dawn Mining, announced via press release that it has implemented a program to increase its current production at its Turk and Angelus Mines in Zimbabwe to an annual production rate of 35,000 to 50,000 ounces of gold.

COMPANY WILL BE ADDING TO CURRENT PRODUCTION AND REVENUE

This is more than just lip service from a company that is already producing meaningful revenues from current gold production. Specifically, in mid-August, the company issued production, revenue and cash flow numbers that demonstrate great progress.  Here are the highlights:

# US$0.016 per basic share or US$464,003 of operating income before

other income/expense and future taxes

# US$0.025 per basic share or US$719,644 of income before non-cashexpenses and future taxes (non-GAAP)

# US$2,865,285 of revenues from the sale of 3,122 ounces of gold at an average sale price of $917 per of2,931 ounces of gold produced during the quarter ended June 30, 2009

# Cash costs of US$503 per ounce during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 (cash costs are a non-GAAP measure)

# 100% of gold sales received and collected in US dollars

# Company re-affirms its first production rate target of 3,600 ounces of gold per quarter by Fiscal Q1 2009/2010

NEW DAWN PRODUCTION EXPECTATIONS GOING FORWARD

Targets:

· Turk Mine is expected to achieve its first annual production target of 14,000 ounces of gold in October 2009.

· The next annual production target of 22,000 to 23,000 ounces of gold is expected to be reached by the end of the third quarter of calendar 2011.

· Management also intends to test a new lower energy fine grinding technology that, if successful, is expected to both improve recoveries and further lower cash costs to below $400 per ounce of gold produced.

AGORACOM Client Evolving Gold (EVG:TSXV) Identifies New Zone of Mineralization At Rattlesnake Hills

Posted by AGORACOM at 2:06 PM on Monday, September 14th, 2009

Evolving Gold Identifies New Zone of Mineralization At Rattlesnake Hills

Evolving Gold announced that drilling in the southeast portion of the North Stock has indicated a new zone of gold mineralization at depth. The mineralization occurs in association with porphyries of a type not previously seen in this system of alkalic intrusions and diatremes.

North Stock Target:

  • Near the bottom of drill hole RSC-027 a new style of mineralization associated with intermediate porphyry and stockwork veining was encountered well outside the margin of the diatreme. Intersections included 30.5 meters 1.89 gpt gold (100 ft at 0.055opt Au), including 7.6 meters at 3.75 gpt gold (25 ft at 0.109 opt Au), and 35.1 meters at 1.74 gpt gold (115 ft at 0.051 opt Au).
  • Nearer surface, drill hole RSC-027 also intersected 135.6 meters at 0.89 gpt Au (445 ft at 0.026 opt Au).
  • Drill hole RSC-028 intersected 59.5 meters at 0.85 gpt Au (195 ft at 0.025 opt Au) starting at 33.5 meters (110 ft) from surface.

Uracan Resources joins AGORACOM 100 with a NI 43-101 Resource estimate of over 40.7 million lbs of Uranium

Posted by AGORACOM at 10:39 AM on Monday, September 14th, 2009

Urc

I’m very happy to announce that Uracan Resources (URC:TSXV) was added to the AGORACOM 100 today. Uracan Resources is in the business of exploring and developing bulk tonnage, near-surface uranium deposits with its two 100%-owned projects in Canada. With only 40 of 1000 square km explored on the Quebec property, Uracan has discovered over 40.7 million lbs. (NI 43-101 inferred resources) U3O8 since 2006 and the 2009 Drilling Program is expected to bring further positive results.  I like the fact that Uracan is armed with a 43-101, which significantly differentiates them from “less polished” Uranium pretenders.

The AGORACOM 100 is meant to be a filter that provides investors with an ability to separate the wheat from the chafe – and Uracan Resources is most definitely AGORACOM 100 material. The fact that Uracan has chosen to make itself fully accessible via online investor relations and an electronic shareholder forum (all links below) tells you a lot about the company’s confidence.  You just don’t open yourself up to the public unless you believe in your story.  As such, I’m looking forward to sharing the company’s developments with you over the next 12 months and beyond.

Now, as a client of AGORACOM, assume I am horribly conflicted about the prospects for Uracan Resources and do your own due diligence.  To that end, I’ve provided you with a running start below.

Highlights include:

·Focused on bulk tonnage near-surface uranium deposits

·Two 100%-owned projects:North Shore, Quebec & Pipewrench Lake, Saskatchewan

·40.7 million lbs. U3O8 (NI 43-101 inferred resources) discovered at North Shore project

·Summer 2009 Exploration Program underway
