Sub-Sahara Resources strikes me as one of the better buys on the market. It has an array of gold interests in Africa, which I suspect will be better appreciated by a Canadian company in the coming years - in the form of a takeover bid. Anvil Mining is another potential suitor having taken a strategic 20% stake in the company. Perhaps just as a take over defence for a 'friend'. The company is capitalised at $35mil, with 500mil shares trading at 7c. Its assets include:
1. Zara JV with Dragon Mining: A 69% stake in the Koka project in Eritrea. It has a 1Moz resource at an attractive grade of 6.3g/t, and the orebody is still open.
2. Nyanzaga JV with Barrick Gold:The Tusker gold deposit remains at the indicated/ inferred level with resources totalling 4.5Moz of gold grading 1.15g/t from 123Mt of ore. SBS has a free-carried stake of 30% to the point of feasibility study. This is a very low grade gold resource but the large size of the deposit will likely justify development at a higher gold price.
3. Lake Victoria JV with Currie Rose Resources: Targeting a 1Moz deposit.
4. Nyakufuru JV with Resolute Mining (<70%):>Resolute is earning up to 70% stake in this project. So far they have identified a 200x800m gold anomaly.
The company has 501 million shares at 7c worth $35million. It has $2.3mil in cash as well as equity interest in Sunridge Gold Corp worth $A12.4million. The market appears to be attaching little value on the company's gold interests. I do not however believe these values are out of place with the generally subdued pricing for junior gold stocks. The Zara gold project is a very attractive project and there is exploration upside here. This season SBS added to 250,000 oz of resources to this project. There are some very high grade zones.
