Timberline Resources (TLR): Net Income Sensitivity Analysis


Timberline Resource Corp’s Butte Highlands gold project is fully funded to production (Q4 2010).  Butte Highlands is estimated to produce 50,000 – 75,000 ounces of gold annually at an estimated cost of $400 to $500 per ounce.  At an average expected grade of 0.27 ounces of gold per ton, and a projected production rate of 750 tons per day, the Butte Highlands Gold Project is expected to have a mine life of over ten years.  With Gold reaching all time highs almost daily, Timberline’s anticipated first year Net Income is following a similar trajectory.   With the stock at $1.25, there is plenty of room for upside here.

    Hey Ian, Ive been buying tlr between 1.00-1.20. Would you be adding at these levels or do you think gold is due for a pullback giving the recent runup? thx.

    I believe that it is a good buy. Most gold producers trade at 10-15x operating cash flow, so unless gold drops like rock back to $600-700/oz you should make good money off those buys . Just like with any asset class, corrections are normal and healthy. I am bullish on gold but am also aware that $100-200 pull backs will occur.
