Depreciation per ounce sold is a non-IFRS financial performance measure with no standard definition under IFRS and represents the depreciation expense per ounce sold. |
For the third quarter in 2015, the decrease in throughput is a direct result of the mine plan sequence. The increase in head grade in the third quarter of 2015 reflects a greater percentage of high-grade ore processed from the Fofina and Siou pits compared to the same period in 2014.
During the third quarter of 2015, gold sales amounted to $72.5 million compared to $84.5 million for the same period in 2014. The 14% decrease is attributable to a decrease in the average realized selling price and the lower gold ounces sold. The decrease in mining operation expenses reflects lower fuel pricing, coupled with the strength of the US dollar relative to the Euro and lower throughput. Cash flows from operating activities from continuing operations reached $34.8 million in the third quarter of 2015 due to the decrease in operating income.
As a result of the cash flow generated from our operating activities, we held a strong cash and cash equivalents position of $137.8 million as at September 30, 2015 with a subsequent receipt of gold trade receivables of $17.5 million in early October.
Lower 2015 Cost Guidance
Driven by our strong third-quarter operational performance, we are lowering both our total cash cost and all-in sustaining cost guidance for the year. The downward revisions reflect cost containment efforts, lower industry costs and favourable exchange rates.

Update on Natougou Feasibility St
udy
The feasibility study for Natougou continued to gain traction in the third quarter and is now 70% complete. We continue to target delivery of the feasibility study early in the second quarter of 2016. At September 30, 2015, $9.9 million of the $12.5 million budget had been expended and our team had achieved the following milestones:
- Process: 90% completed. This includes the plant and site layout equipment specification and request for quotes. Remaining work items involve establishment of the overall sector variability, test work on tailings ponds and CAPEX/OPEX estimations.
- Hydrology: 90%. The water balance analysis has been fully carried out.
- Environmental study: 40% completed.
- The 56,000 meters of in-fill drilling scheduled for the feasibility study have been carried out.
- The resource model is complete, and the 3D geological block model is underway.
Positive Metallurgical Test Work on the Natougou Deposit
Testing on the Boungou Shear Zone was conducted using an optimum flow sheet configuration comprising a primary grind size of 63 microns, a gravity recovery circuit, followed by a 36-hour cyanide leach. A total of 109 drilled core (DC) samples of the mineralized zone ensured both spatial and grade representation, as well as comparison of oxidized and fresh rock characteristics. Each individual sample represents approximately 3 kilograms of drilled core samples. The samples were collected and sent to ALS Metallurgy in Perth, Australia for metallurgical test work. Results show that the recovery is consistent throughout the deposit and trace metal analyses exhibit no refinery concerns. Fresh rock samples indicated a gold recovery rate of over 92%, while oxidized samples yielded a recovery of over 96%.
Exploration - Natougou
Footwall Zone
During the third quarter of 2015, a delineation drilling program and a short hole-extension program were completed to test the continuity of the footwall zone of the Boungou Shear Zone that was originally encountered by hole TPA0556, which had returned 10.23 g/t over 2.69 meters. A total of 20 holes (370 meters) were extended in order to reach the footwall zone. Following reception of the results, a total of 12 additional holes were interpreted to have also crossed the footwall zone.
The results, which returned local high-grade results of up to 31.98 g/t over 2.5 meters, suggest that the width of the footwall zone averages 1.5 meters. It lies subparallel to, and some 5 to 20 meters below, the main Boungou Shear Zone. To date, the zone has been traced over a 300-meter x 90-meter area and remains open in all directions. Further drilling will be carried out.
Regional Exploration - Natougou
Regional airborne geophysical surveying, involving MAG, VTEM and radiometric surveys, commenced in mid-October on the Boungou, Dangou and Pambourou permits. The surveys are being flown at 100-meter line spacing. Field work such as geological mapping, soil geochemistry and RC drill programs will be carried out following review and interpretation of the data.
