Phoenix Gold Breathes Fire into Red Lake
|
ANDREW MIKITCHOOK, GMP Securities
(03/23/2009)
"Rubicon Minerals owns 100% of a high-grade discovery in the prolific Red Lake region of Ontario. The Phoenix Gold property has been returning impressive drill results since its March 2008 discovery and, in our opinion, is potentially on a similar trajectory as two other Red Lake success stories: senior gold producer, Goldcorp (GG-N), and recently acquired (September 2008) explorer Gold Eagle. Our assessment of results to date suggests impressive continuity in the F2 zone, which remains open for further expansion. In addition, the potential to identify additional high-grade shoots on the Phoenix Gold property remains. We value Rubicon based on precedent valuations attained by two successful Red Lake explorers in the expectation that ongoing exploration will firm up the F2 discovery and likely identify new high-grade shoots that will be rewarded by the market. We are assigning Rubicon a C$400mn valuation for its Phoenix Gold F2 discovery alone. We are initiating coverage of Rubicon with an Overweight rating and 12-month price target of US$2.25." |
