Ann: Capital Return Update, page-3

Our producing neighbours s/p in Bendigo Region- CYL $1.75AUD / KLA $30.76AUD

CHN has more of a dominant land holding than both

Some script from other threads -
The only thing better than massive tonnage at one ounce to the tonne is two ounces. They are out producing even compared to the reported grades. If they keep the current production levels (let alone increase them as they are doing every few weeks lately) the 400,000 ounces production per year will be achieved next year rather than 2020. This is why the Victorian Gold Triangle is the hottest gold district in the world and is still only going to get better. WA, eat your heart out. Fosterville now is a tough pill to swallow for its previous owners but the explorers around them (NAG, NML, CYL, CHN, SBM,Hancock) will be hugely motivated to try and get their own production happening. Their will be major companies knocking on the doors of the ground holders, this boom is only just beginning.

And to wet your appetite have a read of the below from our neighbours...

Staff reporter
It is the third guidance increase for Fosterville this year, with the company reporting in late October that the mine would produce more than 300,000oz of gold for the first time in its 13-year history.

The Toronto-based miner said the improved grade and two additional stopes in the Swan Zone would make the higher production possible over the previously guided range of 300,000-310,000oz for the cornerstone mine.

Based on the improved outlook for Fosterville, the company also guided that its consolidated outlook, which includes production from the Macassa mine, in Northern Ontario, would probably exceed the current target range of 655,000-670,000oz.

Kirkland Lake said Fosterville's mill head grade averaged well above target levels in the quarter to date, averaging 35 grams per tonne.

"Fosterville is clearly firing on all cylinders heading towards the end of the year, with Q4 2018 production on track to easily beat the current production record of 90,618oz, achieved last quarter," CEO Tony Makuch said.

He added that the higher-than-expected grades from both development and run-of-mine production, along with the exceptionally high grades reported from recent drilling results, provided confirmation that the presence of high-grade quartz veins with visible gold was more prolific than estimated in the current block model.

"Higher than planned grades are leading to increased levels of production in 2018 and are expected to favourably impact production levels in both 2019 and 2020."

The high-grade, low-cost Fosterville mine has current reserves estimated at 1.7Moz grading on average 23.1gpt gold, including 1.16Moz of reserves in the Swan Zone, at an average grade of 61.2gpt gold.

Kirkland Lake has gained about 44% over the past four quarters, adding 1.6% Friday in Toronto to C$27.54. The company has a market value of $4.37 billion.

Personally very happy with the 4c payback to existing holders
I think this will easily surpass previous high of 70c in 2010 when she runs
