Show A8 The Times-Independen- Thursday, March 20, 1986 t, Atlas to proceed immediately RETURNED TO TEXAS Mrs. LeRoy Hood returned to her home in Houston, Texas recently after a ten day visit with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Lester Taylor on big Nevada gold operation Atlas Corporation (NYSE) an- nounced that its Board of Directors has voted to proceed immediately with the development of the ores at its Gold Bar property in central Nevada. The financing for all development and capital expenditures involved, which aggregates approximately $20 million, will be provided by a combination of bank loan and funds which the Company expects to generate internally. A commitment for such a loan has been obtained from a major domestic bank. On the basis of independently calculated geological estimates, it is believed that the ore body drilled out by the Company contains apgold-beari- proximately 285,000 ounces of economically recoverable gold at a grade of approximately .10 percent. The ore beings in some places at a depth of 5 feet below the surface and has varying thicknesses up to 265 feet. Mining will be an open pit operation. There are no outstanding royalties or other interests on the property which contains the known reserves. We believe that this ore can be mined and processed profitably at a price of $250 per ounce of gold, Mr. Edward R. Farley, Jr., Chairman and President, said. The current market price for an ounce of gold is approximately $340. We will now push hard to begin commercial production from this ore Mr. body by January 1, 1987, added. Farley The configuration of the ore body appears to lend itself to a mining plan which should result in the gold produced at the beginning of mining operations having a production cost well below $250 per ounce. The company owns or controls approximately 34,000 acres of land surrounding the Gold Bar deposit. It is continuing to explore other parts of this property which its geologists believe have a good possibility of containing economically nmvs bis gold reserves. Prior to making Ms dtofcfito to proceed with devetopmsnt of Gold Bar deposit, the Board received as to feasibility, reserve estimates and production cost dependent outside employed for die providing such information. All of our estimates developing the Gold Bar I made on the basis of an price of $300 per ounce of Mr. Farley said. If the of gold remains at its the Gold Bar project should significant income and da I for Atlas. We believe that this comes at a very fortunate time for Atlas, because the expected profits and cash flows should enable the Company to keep its uranium operations in Utah on stand-b- y until both the market and price for U308 return to satisfactory levels, Farley stated. and other relatives. beneficial conservation practices.
