Taseko Mines Limited (TSX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TKO#TSX">TKO</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TGB#NYSE">TGB</a>) (LSE: TKO) ("Taseko" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on financing and construction progress at its Florence Copper project.
On January 15, 2024, the Company signed a definitive agreement with Taurus Mining Royalty Fund L.P. ("Taurus") for the previously announced sale of a US$50 million royalty. The royalty will be for 1.95% of the gross revenue from the sale of all copper from Florence Copper. Funding of the US$50 million is subject to customary closing conditions, and proceeds are expected to be received in early February. The Company also expects to&nbsp;drawdown the first US$10 million of the US$50 million Mitsui financing later this month. With these financings in hand, construction activities at Florence will be accelerating.
To date, site activities have focussed on site preparations, earthworks and civil work for the commercial wellfield. The initial drilling contracts are now being finalized, with drilling of the commercial facility&nbsp;wellfield to commence in February. Additionally, the Company expects to sign a fixed-price contract with TIC&nbsp;Kiewit as general contractor for construction of the SX/EW plant and associated surface infrastructure. All the major plant components are onsite and the build will begin in the second quarter of this year.
Stuart McDonald, President &amp; CEO of Taseko, commented, "Signing of the Taurus royalty agreement is another positive milestone for the project. We are excited to be ramping up construction activities at Florence Copper, which will soon be a major new supplier of low-carbon copper cathode to the US market.&nbsp;
Site preparations and civil work are well advanced, and we're looking forward to commencing wellfield drilling, with four rigs planned to be onsite initially. Construction of the SX/EW plant and other infrastructure represents a significant portion of the remaining project spend, and a fixed-price contract with TIC Kiewit will reduce inflationary risks, as Arizona continues to be a very active construction market. Our early work on detailed engineering and procurement of long-lead items has significantly de-risked the construction schedule and we're tracking towards first copper production in the fourth quarter of 2025. We're taking a disciplined approach to the&nbsp;buildout of the commercial facility at Florence, while our existing operations at the Gibraltar Mine continue to generate good cashflows in a strong copper price environment."
"As an existing copper producer, Taseko is in an enviable and unique position with near-term, low cost production growth coming from a fully-permitted and environmentally beneficial copper project. With copper now added to the US Department of Energy's critical materials list, market interest in our project and future copper production remains strong," added Mr. McDonald.

Taseko Provides Financing And Construction Update For The Florence Copper Project; Says All The Major Plant Components Are Onsite And The Build Will Begin In Q2 Of This Year

Taseko Mines Limited (TSX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TKO#TSX">TKO</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TGB#NYSE">TGB</a>) (LSE: TKO) ("Taseko" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Gibraltar mine produced 34 million pounds of copper and 369 thousand pounds of molybdenum in the fourth quarter of 2023.&nbsp; For the full year, Gibraltar produced 123 million pounds of copper, well above guidance and 26% higher than the previous year.
Copper production in the fourth quarter was supported by strong copper grades of 0.27% with ore from the lower benches of the Gibraltar pit. Mill throughput in the quarter averaged 83,000 tons per day and was impacted by additional downtime for maintenance and monitoring of the ball mill in concentrator #2.&nbsp;
Copper sales volumes in the fourth quarter were 36 million pounds, and year-end concentrate inventories remained above normal levels.
Stuart McDonald, President and CEO of Taseko, commented, "The strong finish to 2023 is expected to continue in 2024 as the Gibraltar pit will remain the main source of ore for the first half of this year."
Note: Production and sales volumes stated in this release are on a 100% basis.

Stuart McDonald, President and CEO of Taseko, commented, "These changes to our senior operating team provide additional management capacity to support our growth plan and strategy of becoming a North America focused, multi-asset copper producer. Our recent successful permitting and financing milestones are significant steps towards realizing the full value of our Florence Copper project, which is now transitioning into the construction phase, with commercial operations expected in 2025."

Why Clearmind Medicine Shares Are Trading Lower By 53%? Here Are Other Stocks Moving In Wednesday's Mid-Day Session

Taseko Mines, Ltd.&nbsp;(AMEX: TGB) shares are trading higher after the U.S. Environment Protection Agency issued a&nbsp;<a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/23/09/n34578484/taseko-mines-announces-receipt-of-final-permit-for-the-florence-copper-project" style="background-image:initial; background-position:initial; background-size:initial; background-repeat:initial; background-attachment:initial; background-origin:initial; background-clip:initial; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; color:#4a6ee0" target="_blank">final Underground Injection Control Permit</a>&nbsp;for the Florence Copper Project.
The project has an after-tax NPV (8%) of $930 million at a copper price of $3.75 per pound.&nbsp;
The NPV is based on a March 2023 Technical Report for the project, supported by results from the successful operation of a production test facility.
When commercial operations begin, it can produce 85 million pounds of copper yearly for over a 22-year mine life, costing $1.11 per pound.
&quot;We now have one of a very few construction-ready, fully permitted copper projects in North America. With approvals in place from the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality and now the EPA, we can commence construction of the Florence Copper commercial production facility. This achievement is a major stride forward and a result of Taseko&#39;s long-term approach to project development, environmental protection, and community engagement,&quot; said Stuart McDonald, President and CEO of Taseko.
Price Action:&nbsp;TGB shares are trading higher by 16.9% to $1.52 on the last check Thursday.

Taseko Mines Q4 EPS C$0.01; Revenue C$392M

Taseko Mines Limited (TSX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TKO#TSX">TKO</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TGB#NYSE">TGB</a>) (LSE: TKO) (&quot;Taseko&quot; or the &quot;Company&quot;) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a definitive agreement (&quot;Agreement&quot;) to acquire an additional&nbsp;12.5%&nbsp;interest in the Gibraltar Mine from Sojitz Corporation (&quot;Sojitz&quot;).&nbsp;&nbsp;Gibraltar&nbsp;is operated through a joint venture which is owned&nbsp;75%&nbsp;by Taseko and&nbsp;25%&nbsp;by Cariboo Copper Corporation (&quot;Cariboo&quot;). &nbsp;Under the terms of the Agreement, Taseko will acquire Sojitz&#39;s&nbsp;50%&nbsp;interest in Cariboo, and will then hold an effective&nbsp;87.5%&nbsp;interest in the Gibraltar Mine.
The acquisition price consists of a minimum amount of&nbsp;C$60 million&nbsp;payable over a five-year period and potential contingent payments depending on&nbsp;Gibraltar&nbsp;mine revenues and copper prices over the next five years.&nbsp; An initial&nbsp;C$10 million&nbsp;will be paid to Sojitz upon closing and the remaining minimum amount will be paid in&nbsp;C$10 million&nbsp;annual instalments over the next five years.
Stuart McDonald, President &amp; CEO of Taseko, stated, &quot;This is a logical and beneficial transaction for Taseko, providing immediate&nbsp;17%&nbsp;growth in our attributable copper production and earnings from mine operations.&nbsp;&nbsp;Gibraltar&nbsp;is a high-quality asset with a long mine life in an excellent jurisdiction.&nbsp; The transaction is immediately accretive to Taseko and the deferred payment structure allows us to focus our financial capacity on the construction of the Florence Copper project which we expect to commence later this year.&quot;
Mr.&nbsp;Osamu Matsuura, Executive Officer &amp; COO of Sojitz Metals, Mineral Resources and Recycling Division, commented: &quot;Sojitz has benefitted from its partnership with Taseko for more than a decade, and we continue to view the&nbsp;Gibraltar&nbsp;mine as a valuable long-life asset with a proven operating team. &nbsp;This transaction is consistent with our Division&#39;s strategy to transition towards metal recycling and other midstream processing businesses.&quot;
Closing of the transaction is subject to customary conditions, including regulatory approvals, and is expected to occur in a timely manner.
Transaction Details
Taseko will acquire Sojitz&#39;s&nbsp;50%&nbsp;interest in Cariboo and become a party to the existing Cariboo shareholders agreement with Dowa Metals &amp; Mining Co., Ltd (25%) and Furukawa Co. Ltd (25%). There will be no change to the offtake contracts established in 2010 and Dowa and Furukawa will continue to receive&nbsp;30%&nbsp;of&nbsp;Gibraltar&#39;s&nbsp;copper concentrate offtake. There will be no impact to operation of the Gibraltar Joint Venture.
Under the terms of the Agreement, the initial minimum payment of&nbsp;C$10 million&nbsp;is due on closing and the remaining minimum amounts are payable annually in&nbsp;C$10 million&nbsp;instalments over the next five years, for a total of&nbsp;C$60 million. &nbsp;There is no interest payable on the minimum amounts.&nbsp;
The contingent payments are payable annually for five years only if the average LME copper price exceeds&nbsp;US$3.50&nbsp;per pound in a year.&nbsp; The payments will be calculated by multiplying&nbsp;Gibraltar&nbsp;mine copper revenues by a price factor, which is based on a sliding scale ranging from&nbsp;0.38%&nbsp;at&nbsp;US$3.50&nbsp;per pound copper to a maximum of&nbsp;2.13%&nbsp;at&nbsp;US$5.00&nbsp;per pound copper or above.&nbsp; Total contingent payments cannot exceed&nbsp;C$57 million&nbsp;over the five-year period, limiting the acquisition cost to a maximum of&nbsp;C$117 million.
