Sans Teeth, Sans Eyes, Sans Taste, Sans Offers, Sans Anything, Sans Gold (SGR.v)



Sans Gold SGR.v is going the way of the buggy whip. NR tonight and not a moment too soon.


WINNIPEG, May 28, 2015 /CNW/ - San Gold Corporation (TSX-V: SGR) ("San Gold" or the "Company") announced today it did not receive any third party final bids by the deadline for the Company's previously announced Sale and Investor Solicitation Process pursuant to the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada) (the "BIA").

As a result, it is expected that the Company's secured lenders will seek court approval for a transaction by which the assets of the Company will be acquired by a nominee of the Company's principal secured lenders in exchange for its secured debt. In such event, the Company will have no ability to make a viable proposal to its creditors and will become bankrupt upon the expiry of the court-ordered Stay Period.


Etc

At least we retail mugs can comfort ourselves with the fact that Dale Ginn made a hatload of money. Through millionaire insider share sales. Before he stepped aside. Back in the day. Betcha that makes you feel better, right?

Right?

Re: Still mining?

WINNIPEG, April 15, 2015 /PRNewswire/ - San Gold Corporation (TSX-V: SGR) ("San Gold" or the "Company") announces it has expanded the scope of the temporary operational changes initiated at its Rice Lake mine in March, including the suspension of all mining operations. The changes are being implemented to conserve cash and reduce the potential for additional short-term financing as the Company completes its Sales and Investor Solicitation Process (SISP). These changes are being made as a result of continued weakness in gold prices and the lack of availability of new financing.


The Company is continuing to mill previously mined ore and will subsequently begin the process of recovering available in-process gold inventory. Gold obtained from this process will be used to finance the costs related to maintaining the Company's Rice Lake assets as it completes the ongoing Sales and Investor Solicitation Process.

U.S. gold miner Allied Nevada files for bankruptcy

U.S. gold miner Allied Nevada files for bankruptcy

VANCOUVER, March 10 (Reuters) - U.S.-based gold miner Allied Nevada Gold Corp filed for bankruptcy protection on Tuesday, buckling under a heavy debt load amid weaker metal prices.


Allied Nevada, which owns the Hycroft open pit gold and silver mine in Nevada, said in a statement it was filing to restructure its debt, which stood at $543 million at the end of September.


Under the proposed restructuring, the company's creditors and vendors are expected to be paid in full, the company said.


Although the Hycroft mine is expected to continue operating during the restructuring, RBC Capital Markets analyst Sam Crittenden said he did not "expect much, if any, residual value for shareholders after the process given the large debt load and limited free cashflow at spot metal prices."


Allied Nevada's biggest shareholder is Van Eck Associates, with a stake of 5.65 percent at the end of December, according to Thomson Reuters data. The California Public Employees' Retirement System owns 2.3 percent of the company and Paulson & Co Inc. 1.2 percent.


Gold and silver prices are down around 31 percent and 48 percent respectively in the past two years. A number of analysts began raising concerns last year about Allied Nevada's weak cash position, large debt load and short mine life.


Allied Nevada said secured lenders and noteholders owning or controlling more than 67 percent of its notes have committed to supporting the restructuring. It has also agreed to a $78 million secured credit facility that will be used to keep Hycroft operating.


Shares in the company, which as of Monday's close had a market value of $108 million, were suspended from trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange and New York Stock Exchange on Tuesday morning. (Reporting by Nicole Mordant in Vancouver; Editing by Alan Crosby)
