CSI: Investors Await De-Risking of Serra Pelada

Junior Mining Weekly (02/02/2010)
"Colossus has experienced a pullback in its share price along with the rest of the junior mining space; however, it did not participate in the rally as other junior miners did when the price of gold ran up from October to December 2009. An equity financing and subsequent warrant acceleration slaked much of the investor demand for CSI shares in 2009. In 2010, investors appear to be waiting for the company to de-risk the Serra Pelada project. We are waiting for metallurgy, mining methodology, approval of an EIA, receipt of a development permit and a land deal with Vale. As these hurdles are overcome and investors' confidence builds, we expect the share price to rally. Colossus has C$103 million in cash and an additional C$31 million in in-the-money options and warrants, which we expect will be more than sufficient to finance the development of Serra Pelada."
