Peter Spina, Founder GoldSeek.com, Gold Seek LLC><center><font color= The New GOLDMINING – Expanding its Massive Gold Portfolio in the Americas


By: Peter Spina, Founder GoldSeek.com

Equipped with a new name and ticker to reflect its growing ambition, GoldMining Inc. (TSX-V: GOLD, OTCQX: GLDLF) is pushing ahead with its expanded stable of gold-copper projects while still on the lookout for new ones.

"We are pleased to change the name of the company to GoldMining Inc. to better reflect our diversified project portfolio and strategy to build a leading gold acquisition and development company throughout the Americas," stated founder Amir Adnani at the time of the change in December.

The Vancouver-based junior, known until recently as Brazil Resources, has picked up promising projects outside of its original focus of Brazil in recent years including development properties in Alaska and most recently Colombia.

The new additions fit in with the companys strategy, set by chairman Adnani, to pick up advanced-stage gold projects at a discount and move them towards production. So far, the strategy has left GoldMining with 8 million measured and indicated ounces, plus 10million inferred resources, of gold spread across the Americas, plus $20 million in the bank to advance them and buy more.  

They also have added 1.8 billion pounds of copper with their Alaskan and Colombian acquisitions. With bullish uranium prices, rallying the last several weeks into the mid and upper $20s, GoldMining provides opportunity with its Canadian uranium project, located in the western Athabasca Basin, owned with French energy giant Areva (25%).

 

Home base

Brazil was the companys launching point and still the home of its most advanced projects, including Sao Jorge and Cachoeira.

The company first secured Cachoeira in 2012 as the market dropped, and last year paid off its final commitments to Luna Gold for full ownership of the Para State property.

The project has three defined gold deposits with a combined indicated resource of 17.5 million tonnes grading 1.23 g/t gold for 692,000 ounces, plus an inferred resource of 15.7 million tonnes averaging 1.07 g/t gold for 538,000 ounces, all thanks to the more than $25 million already spent on exploration.

Cachoeira does hold a 4 per cent net smelter return royalty, with minimum payments of US$300,000 that started in 2014 even though production did not. But the company says its in negotiations to defer all payments until it has the permits and licenses and starts production, a deferral that had been granted to previous operators.

Further southwest in Para state sits GoldMinings Sao Jorge project, with an indicated resource of 14.4 million tonnes grading 1.54 g/t gold for 715,000 oz. gold plus 28.2 million tonnes averaging 1.14 g/t gold for just over a million ounces.

More than 90 per cent of Sao Jorges 56,000 hectares of land remains unexplored, while GoldMining also has exploration potential at its earlier-stage Surubim and Boa Vista projects also near the town of Novo Progresso.

The company has already spent more than $4.4 million on the two advanced projects with engineering and environmental studies, and has applied for environmental licenses at Cachoeira and a mining concession at Sao Jorge.

Elsewhere in Brazil, the company also holds the earlier-stage Artulandia, Montes Aureos, and Trinta projects, which could come into play at a future date.

Besides properties, the company also has financial and management connections to Brazil.

Paulo Pereira, President of GoldMining, studied in Brazil before spending part of his 25-year career exploring and developing mining projects in the country.

The companys Brazil connections are also bolstered by Mario Garnero as a director, who is also the principal shareholder of the Brasilinvest Group. The private merchant bank, with some $6-billion in structured and initiated projects, is also a significant investor in GoldMining.

The bank has helped prop up institutional investment to about 35 per cent of shares outstanding, while insiders hold another 25 per cent, and retail investors the rest.

 

Wider ambitions

Not content with focusing only on Brazil, the company, led by Garnet Dawson as Chief Executive, has been searching widely for projects.

Dawson, a professional geologist with more than 30 years of experience in the trade across the Americas, Europe, Africa and China, has helped provide that wider perspective.

Seeing potential in a wider geography, GoldMining first looked far north, snapping up the Whistler project from Kiska Metals Corp. in 2015.

The Whistler project, sitting about 150 km northwest of Anchorage, now has three defined deposits with combined resources of 110.3 million indicated tonnes grading 0.5 g/t gold and 0.14% copper or 0.79 g/t gold equivalent for 2.8 million gold equivalent ounces, plus 311 million inferred tonnes grading 0.47 g/t gold and 0.11% copper or 0.68 g/t gold equivalent for 6.73 million gold equivalent ounces.

The company says the deposits are open in several directions and future drill programs will focus on adding to these near surface deposits, as well as outlining higher-grade zones within this extensive mineralization.

Spanning 170 sq. km, the Whistler project has numerous other promising targets, partially outlined thanks to more than C$50 million worth of exploration work including 70,000 metres of drilling.

 

Colombia

For its most recent addition, GoldMining looked back to South America, seeing potential in the geography and growing stability of Colombia.

Last September the company closed a deal on Titiribi, handing over five million shares plus a million warrants to NovaCopper Inc. In return, GoldMining gained control of a nearly 40-sq.-km land package in the highlands of central Colombia thats already seen some $60 million in exploration work between 2010 and 2014 with more than 140,000 metres of core over 270 holes.

The exploration work by NovaCopper subsidiary Sunward established several near-surface bulk tonnage gold-copper porphyry and associated epithermal gold systems, sitting in nine mineralized areas.

GoldMining put the existing data to work quickly, producing a resource estimate last October that showed a measured and indicated resource of three combined deposits totalling 286 million tonnes grading 0.5 g/t gold for 4.6 million oz. gold, plus copper in some deposits for 654 million lbs. copper. Inferred resources add an additional 208 million tonnes at 0.49 g/t gold for 3.3 million oz. gold and 78 million lbs. copper. 

Operations will be aided by the local infrastructure, with paved road access, high power electrical lines passing within 3 km of the project, and the regional hub of Medellin only 70 km northeast.

The company joins a roster of companies developing gold projects in the area, including Red Eagle with commercial production to be declared at its San Ramon gold mine in the first quarter of 2017, Continental Golds flagship Buriticá project receiving its environmental permit in the fourth quarter of 2016, and Gran Colombias producing Segovia and Marmato gold mines.

Cashed up

GoldMining has gathered up its roster of projects while keeping total shares outstanding at a reasonable 118 million shares, plus another 17 million options and warrants.

The latest Titiribi deal added less than 4.6 per cent dilution, in a deal worth about C$12 million based on Brazil Resources 20-day average price before the deal closed.

The company also cashed up in November, raising $12.4 million at $2.50 a unit. The financing was originally set at $4 million, but heavy interest led to multiple rises in the target and an oversubscribed private placement.

"We are very pleased with the strong level of support shown by existing and new individual and institutional investors in this oversubscribed Private Placement," said Adnani at the time.

The financings were helped along by a rapidly appreciating stock price, which went from trading in $0.40 CAD range  in January 2016 to a peak of $3.35 CAD nine  months later.

That price has more recently been hovering at around $2 CAD, giving the company about a $240-million CAD market cap.

But with more than 10 million ounces of indicated gold equivalent ounces,  12.6 million ounces  more in inferred ounces, plus much more in the works, the company should see big movements along with the gold price.

 

Looking forward

Having assembled a group of promising gold projects across the Americas, GoldMining is now starting to pivot to the other half of its name and push the projects towards production.

Mining entrepreneur Adnani is no stranger to putting mines into production, having founded Uranium Energy Corp. and led it to production within five years.

Early permitting work is already underway in Brazil, while it will be looking to expand and advance its projects in Alaska and Colombia.

The company also has its Rea uranium project in Alberta, a holdover of an earlier takeover, that saw some exploration work last year and that GoldMining looking to spin off or sell.

It holds 75 per cent of the project thats seen more than C$10 million of work, and which French energy giant Areva owns the remaining stake.

GoldMining is, however, keeping development and exploration budgets tight at all projects, as it waits for permitting and potential movement in gold prices.

All the while, management is still on the hunt for new opportunities that hold an existing sizable resource with high potential for expansion, says Adnani.

"With over $20 million of cash and major institutional holders that have been long-term backers of the company's business plan, we are in a strong position to continue the acquisition strategy that has consistently increased shareholder value over the past five years," he recently stated.

Finding those promising projects at a good price has never been easy, but GoldMining has in a short time shown it can flush them out.

The company has an ambitious road ahead as it works to push its projects towards production, some of which have sizable, lower-grade resources which gives the company significant leverage to the gold price!

With several promising deposits and over 18 million gold ounces (indicated and inferred) under its control already, the company is well positioned to benefit the upside in gold prices, and has already shown that it can skillfully add ounces to its roster with minimal dilution to shareholders.

GoldMining has built its vision of building a portfolio of gold ounces for a low cost to its shareholders on the belief that gold prices will not remain depressed. I fully agree that the last several years in gold is a gift to those who have been able to accumulate ounces.

GoldMining certainly has aggressively done so and continues to significantly add ounces to its portfolio such as Septembers massive gold-copper Titiribi acquisition. Now with gold prices looking to make a move towards $1,500/ounce and higher, GoldMining will become even more lucrative for investors and to other mining companies in need to replenish their own ounces. I believe this will continue to fuel GoldMining as a gold stock outperformer in the coming leg higher in the bull market.
