ASX-listed mining investment company Lion Selection Group (ASX:LSX) shared on 31 December 2021 that J Resources has now completed its Sale and Purchase Agreement with PT Andalan Bersama Investama (Andalan) for all the shares in PT Gorontalo Sejahtera Mining. PT Gorontalo Sejahtera Mining is the company that holds the Pani Contract of Work. A day earlier, PT Merdeka Copper Gold Tbk (Merdeka) declared that it has agreed to subscribe for 50.1% of Andalan.

The announcement revealed that in order to permit the GSM transaction to proceed, the Pani Joint Venture (where Lion holds 33%, Merdeka Copper Gold owns 67%) has now settled the arbitration action taken against gold mining Company J Resources.

On 30 December 2021, the Indonesian mineral and mining company PT Merdeka Copper Gold Tbk (IDX:MDKA) announced that it has invested US$80.16 million to subscribe for a 50.1% interest in Andalan. Andalan recently completed the acquisition of PT Gorontalo Sejahtera Mining from PT J Resources Nusantara, a subsidiary of PT J Resources Asia Pasifik Tbk. 

PT Merdeka Copper Gold Tbk (Merdeka) owns 66.7% interest in PT Pani Bersama Jaya, which holds the Pani IUP. The Pani IUP and Pani CoW mining properties are adjacent and together constitute the complete Pani Gold Project. Significant benefits are expected to be delivered via a joint development of the properties. 

Today, the stock LSX closed 19.101% higher at AU$0.500 per share on ASX.

Bottom Line:

The Pani Gold Project will enable the combined resources of Pani IUP and Pani CoW to be developed into a single larger gold mine project. The overall reserve for the Pani Gold Project will be more significant materially than the probable reserves would have been had the projects been developed separately. 

The combined project is anticipated to become a long-life and low-cost gold mine with the capability to have annual production exceeding 250,000 ounces of gold for over 15 years. This will rank the project among one of the largest by gold production in the Asia-Pacific region. The project is expected to have an existing combined resource of 4.7 million ounces of gold.
