Growing Gold-Silver Resource

STEVE PARSONS, Wellington West Capital Markets (03/02/2010)
"A growing, heap-leachable gold-silver resource in prolific Peruvian mining country. Sulliden Gold is a Canadian-based gold exploration company focused on advancing the 100%-owned, 80-km2 Shahuindo gold-silver project in northern Peru. With years of legal wrangling over the project’s title recently resolved, drilling has resumed and the 1.34mm-ounce indicated and inferred gold resource is poised for growth. The opportunity exists for Sulliden’s shares to re-rate as the company matures from explorer/developer to producer over the next 24 months. Shahuindo represents a low capex intensity heap-leach opportunity in proven mining country – a rare asset to be held by a junior miner. As Sulliden achieves development milestones and applies further engineering, we contend that Shahuindo’s merits should crystallize, resulting in value accretion. Maintain Buy rating, but increasing target price to $1.15 from $1.10 previously. Our target is based on a 1.2x multiple of our NAV8% estimate of $0.94/share ($0.90/share old). The application of a producer discount rate of 5% would see our NAV estimate increase to $1.18/share and our target to $1.40/share."
