Bralorne Gold Project Shows Significant Potential with C$1.9 Billion NPV5% at Spot Price
Talisker Resources Ltd., a Canadian mining company, has announced the results of an independent Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for its Bralorne Gold Project in British Columbia. The PEA was prepared by SGS Geological Services and other independent engineering firms.
The study highlights the project's long-term development potential, with a base-case gold price of US$3,500/oz resulting in an after-tax NPV5% of C$1.048 billion and an IRR of 31.3%. At a spot gold price of US$4,300/oz and a US$:C$ exchange rate of 0.71, the after-tax NPV5% jumps to C$1.876 billion and the IRR reaches 67.2%.
The PEA assumes an average annual production of 110,000 ounces of gold per year over a mine life of 14 years, with initial capital expenditures of C$416 million and sustaining capital of C$782 million.
