Profit attributable to shareholders of the Company was $20.7 million (or $0.03 per share) for the quarter compared with a loss of $96.1 million (or $0.13 per share) in the third quarter of 2015. The Company recorded non-cash charges to income tax expense of $84.4 million during the third quarter of 2015 mostly related to a change in the corporate income tax rate in Greece and the impact of foreign exchange movements. The loss reported in 2015 was also impacted by mine standby costs in Greece of $7.0 million.
Gross profit from mining operations, including discontinued operations, increased year over year. While gold sales volumes fell, gross profit margins increased. The average realized price of gold increased $203 per ounce. In addition, at Jinfeng and White Mountain, gross margins were higher year over year partly due to the suspension of depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, as a result of the application of IFRS 5 – “Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations”, from the date the assets and liabilities were classified as discontinued.
Gold Operations Update
TURKEY Kisladag
Gold production of 49,270 ounces at Kisladag was lower year on year as a result of longer leach cycles caused by higher leach pad lifts and lower grade ore placed on the leach pad earlier in 2016 (2015: 69,672). The increase in average treated head grade in the second and third quarters has been reflected in a doubling of the daily gold adsorption rate from the beginning of September through mid-October. During the fourth quarter, the installation of extra carbon column sets is underway to increase adsorption capacity. As a result the Company expects fourth quarter gold production to return to levels achieved in 2015. Cash operating costs per ounce decreased year on year due to higher gold grades, and reduced waste mining. Capital expenditures for the quarter of $7.9 million included costs for capitalized waste stripping and sustaining construction activities.
Efemcukuru
Gold production of 24,229 ounces for the quarter at Efemcukuru was lower year on year due to lower average treated head grade (2015: 27,123). An increase in cash operating costs to $554 per ounce was mainly driven by lower head grades. Capital expenditures of $4.7 million included underground development, mine equipment overhauls, and process and waste rock/tailings facilities construction projects.
CHINA Tanjianshan
Gold production of 10,401 ounces at Tanjianshan during the quarter was lower year on year due to a decrease in tonnes mined from the Jinlonggou pit, but supplemented by ore from low grade stockpiles (2015: 29,055). An unplanned mill shutdown due to repairs to a cracked mill shell also impacted quarterly production. Cash operating costs of $797 per ounce were higher year on year as a result of lower production.
Jinfeng
Reported gold production at Jinfeng of 19,907 ounces reflects production through September 6, 2016, the date of closing of the Company’s interest in Jinfeng.
White Mountain
Gold production of 13,975 ounces at White Mountain during the quarter was lower year over year due to lower average treated head grade and reduced average recovery rates (2015: 16,359). Cash operating costs of $811 per ounce were higher driven by lower gold production. Capital expenditures of $1.4 million for the quarter included underground development, tailings dam lift construction, and sustaining capital projects within the processing plant.
Gold Projects Update
TURKEY Kisladag Expansion
Work is expected to commence in the fourth quarter.
GREECE Olympias
During the quarter, 90% of the internal steelwork for the Phase II crusher building was erected. Installation focused on the crushers, chutes, screens and the control room. Work completed inside the main production building included the erection of steelwork, and the placement of tanks, pumps and other equipment onto their foundations. The first flotation tanks were lifted into place, the ball mill foundation was completed, and all other concrete pertaining to the process plant were completed. The regrind and thickening areas have also progressed well and are nearly complete.
Total capital expenditure for the quarter was $41.7 million, including $18.9 million on the Phase II mill construction, $13.9 million on mine development and other surface capital works, and $8.9 million on Kokkinolakas dam construction.
Skouries
Earthworks, building erection and site clearing all progressed during the quarter. Targeted work included road and stockpile dome embankments, excavation work, and piling of production building column foundations and tailings thickener area retaining wall. Basic engineering was also underway for the integrated waste management facility. Total capital expenditure for the quarter was $13.2 million.
Perama Hill
The project remained on care and maintenance. No project development activities took place during the quarter.
ROMANIA Certej
Engineering optimization work during the quarter focused on the metallurgical process, water and waste management, and site infrastructure to support ongoing permitting activities. Development continued onsite with quarry operation, aggregate production and onsite road and water management construction. Offsite infrastructure work continued on upgrading the main water line and advancing permitting of the access road and power supply. A total of $4.0 million was spent at Certej during the quarter, including land acquisition.
BRAZIL Tocantinzinho
Engineering to support ongoing permitting activities advanced during the quarter, including design of the power line, access road, mine and waste management. Tenders for the basic engineering of the process facilities were received and assessed. Site activity during the quarter included geotechnical drilling at the plant and infrastructure areas, maintenance work on the access road and an increase in security facilities. Capital costs incurred at Tocantinzinho during the quarter totalled $2.8 million.
CHINA Eastern Dragon
During the quarter, Eastern Dragon remained on care and maintenance as the Company continued to advance the permitting process. The Mining License application has been accepted by the Ministry of Land and Resources. Work continued on the forestry and land permit submittal, with submission expected during the fourth quarter.
Exploration Review
During the quarter 14,470 metres of exploration drilling were completed at the Company’s operations and exploration projects. Year-to-date exploration expenditures total $16.6 million.
Greece
In Greece, exploration activities focused on the Stratoni corridor. Development of the hanging wall exploration crosscut and drift at Mavres Petres began in July and advanced 105 metres during the quarter. The first hanging wall drill stations are estimated to be completed late in the fourth quarter.
Romania
In August, the Company was granted the exploration license for the Bolcana porphyry project in the Certej district. Permitting for fourth quarter drilling is underway. Drilling during the third quarter at the nearby Sacaramb project tested the southerly extensions to historically mined veins in the southern part of the deposit.
Turkey
In Turkey, reconnaissance level exploration continued, focused mainly on tertiary volcanic centers in the western part of the country.
Brazil
In Brazil, Eldorado signed option agreements with Votorantim Metais covering in excess of 3,750 square kilometres of licenses and license applications in Minas Gerais and Pernambuco states. The agreement provides Eldorado the ability to earn up to 70% of any of the licenses on delivery of a bankable feasibility study. Drilling commenced late in the quarter on the licenses at the Vulture showing in Pernambuco state.
China
In China, exploration drilling continued at both the White Mountain and Tanjianshan operations. At White Mountain, underground drilling tested step outs of the North and Far North zones, and surface drill holes targeted potential southwest extensions to the deposit. At Tanjianshan, drilling was conducted at the Xijingou deposit.
Serbia
The Company continued drilling at the KMC skarn project in Serbia. The first hole completed at the Shanac target intersected 298 metres grading 0.78 grams per tonne gold and 0.14% copper within magnetitebearing skarn. Drilling will continue through most of the fourth quarter at both the Shanac and Copper Canyon/Gradina zones.
2016 Outlook
New guidance for 2016 gold production takes into account discontinued operations, uses the actual September 6, 2016 closing date for the Jinfeng transaction, and assumes a mid-November 2016 closing date for White Mountain, Tanjianshan and Eastern Dragon.
Full year production is forecast to be 495,000 ounces of gold with average cash costs for commercial production of $575 per ounce and all-in sustaining cash costs of $915 per ounce. Previous guidance (that included all operations for all of 2016) was production of 570,000 ounces of gold at average cash costs of $595 per ounce and all-in sustaining cash costs of $930 per ounce.
Capital spending is forecast to be $80.0 million in sustaining capital and $230.0 million in new project development capital compared with previous guidance of $95.0 million and $250.0 million respectively. Ounce production, sustaining capital spending and development capital spending have all been reduced due to the sale of the Chinese assets.
Board of Directors Update
