OVG - As good as GOLD & SILVER - possible multi bagger this year (OVG)     

Tokyo - 10 Apr 2006 12:24

A small mining company in Ireland, perhaps on the verge of signing a massive Silver deal over in Russia for a mine with C1/C2 reseves of 74m ounces, with today's silver price around $12.4 an ounce and with an expected price of $15 per oz after the silver ETF fund is up and running, this stock looks set for a break up, alot of buying interest over the past few days as most people are expecting this silver deal to be signed sometime this month, as the RNS from December indicated that the due diligence should be completed with 3-4 months.

See December RNS in post 2


Current silver price $12.41 per ounce,
Average Cash Cost of Production from the deal in Russia only $2.41 per ounce of silver


74,314,000 ozs of potential silver in this one deal alone.


check out their website to see their other major assets in both Sweden and Russia

http://www.ovocagold.com/


IMHO - currently one of the most undervalued companies on the market at the moment. Current share price is only 11 pence on the offer, I'm looking for 20pence towards the end of this month, with perhaps 30pence after institutes buy in, then a steady climb to about 50pence with all the up-dates from their other assets in both Russia and Sweden over this year. A definite long term hold.


Tokyo - 10 Apr 2006 16:23 - 2 of 28

Below is the RNS from December, and if this deal is signed this month, it will sky rocket the Market value of the company, also making it alot more attractive to the institutes as well as taking away alot of the risk associated with aim listed mining stocks

Ovoca Resources plc


OVOCA GOLD PLC

OVOCA SIGNS HEADS OF AGREEMENT TO ACQUIRE 74 MILLION OUNCE SILVER DEPOSIT IN
NORTH-EAST RUSSIA

Ovoca Gold plc, ('Ovoca' or 'the Company') the London AIM (OVG.L) and Dublin IEX
(OVX.IR) traded exploration company is pleased to announce that it has signed a
heads of agreement to acquire a 74% controlling interest in CJSC Ayax
Prospectors Artel company ('Ayax'), a Russian company which owns the Goltsovoe
silver deposit in the Magadan oblast in Eastern Russia.

Subject to satisfactory completion of additional due diligence over the next 3
to 4 months, and any regulatory approvals required in Dublin and London, Ovoca
will acquire 74% of the equity in Ayax for 110 million Ovoca new ordinary shares
together with a payment of $1m within six months of signing the acquisition
agreement. Ovoca will also have the option at its sole discretion to acquire the
remaining 26% of the equity of Ayax at any time between the first and second
anniversary of the signing date. Under the heads of agreement Ayax will have the
right to appoint three directors to the Ovoca Board upon completion of the
acquisition agreement.

Ovoca has been in discussions with the shareholders of Ayax since early
September 2005 and, with the assistance of GBM Minerals Engineering Consultants
Limited of the UK ('GBM'), has invested some 300 man days evaluating their
Goltsovoe Silver project in Magadan. The Company has instructed DentonWildeSapte
and Deloitte & Touch who have completed preliminary legal and financial
reviews of Ayax from their Moscow offices

The Goltsovoe deposit is located in the district of Omsukchan in the Magadan
Oblast. It is 69 kilometres from the regional administrative centre of Omsukchan
and is accessed by a good all-weather road. A 110 kV power line and telephone
communications run along the Magadan-Omsukchan highway. It is close to Bema Gold
Corporation's Julietta Mine and near the famous Dukat silver deposit.

Ovoca and GBM have completed a study of the resources, mining methods, mineable
reserves, processing and infrastructure as well as capital and operating costs
estimates for a 260,000 tonne a year underground mine, with a 10 year mine life.
Considerable metallurgical testwork has already been completed by Ayax, and GBM
has carried out a detailed evaluation of the work done and have recommended a
mine and process plant design. Source data has been taken from a previously
completed Russian study prepared by the Institutes VNII-I-Magadan and TsNIGRI
(Moscow) and JSC NBL-Gold, independent metallurgical and engineering
consultants.

Goltsovoe is an advanced stage project with C1 and C2 resources, in accordance
with Russian geological estimation standards. These have been determined based
on extensive drilling and underground exploration development conducted by the
Dukat Geological Mission and were approved by the Soviet State Committee for
Reserves (GKZ) in 1987 at a cut-off grade of 50 grammes per tonne silver. A
recalculation of the resources at various cut off grades has been completed by
Ayax and a revised resource at a 150 gramme per tonne cut-off grade is being
submitted to GKZ for approval. The recalculated resource at a 150 gramme per
tonne cut-off grade will be audited during the due diligence process.

The Goltsovoe Resources as calculated by Ayax, in accordance with Russian
geological estimation standards, at 150 grams per tonne silver cut-off grade are
as follows:

Category Ore tonnes Silver Grade g/t Silver ozs
C1 1061.66 1136.68 38,799,000
C2 1413.88 781.28 35,515,000
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
C1+C2 2475.54 933.70 74,314,000


(Gold equivalent resources 1,239,000 ounces)

GBM have evaluated the metallurgical testwork that had previously been completed
by VNII-I-Magadan and TsNiiGRI (Moscow) and have estimated the following data
for the project.

Mineable Reserves 2,400,000 Tonnes
Annual Production 260,000 Tonnes/year
Average Diluted Silver Grade 752 Grams per tonne
24.2 Ounces per tonne
Average Lead Grade 2.46 %
Operating Cost 71 US$ per tonne ore
Average Cash Cost of Production 2.41 US$ per ounce of silver
Pre Production Capital Cost 65 US$Millions


Commenting on this potential major acquisition Roger Turner, Chairman of Ovoca,
stated:-

'This high-grade, advanced-stage, silver project will allow Ovoca to commence
feasibility studies as soon as the acquisition is complete. We will work closely
with Russian, as well as Western, engineering groups to complete a bankable
feasibility study and obtain all of the required permits and approvals for early
construction. In the earlier years of the mine life we believe a production rate
of over 6 million ounces of silver a year can be achieved and the exploration
potential is good. The three designated Russian Directors who will join the
Ovoca Board are already successful businessmen in their own right. They will
bring committed and strong support to Ovoca, not only for the Goltsovoe project
but also our project in Kola, and possible additional mine and mineral deposit
acquisitions throughout Russia. We have developed a good working relationship
with them over the past months and I look forward to working with them in the
future. Goltsovoe has the potential to be one of the lowest cost silver
producers in the world and we have the experience of building and commissioning
mines within the Former Soviet Union. We will try to complete the technical,
financial and legal due diligence, and obtain the required approvals, to close
this acquisition as quickly as possible. Once done this will be Ovoca's flagship
project and has the potential to make Ovoca a profitable mid-tier producing
mining company with a secured future'

Tokyo - 13 Apr 2006 11:58 - 3 of 28

5 market makers now on OVG. Gone from 8 pence to 11 pence in a matter of a few weeks.

Anyone heard anymore on this as it looks ready to explode if all these silver deal rumours are true. The RNS above certainly adds fuel to the fire.

18 April 2006

Ovoca Gold plc ('Ovoca' or the 'Company')


Acquisition of Ayax


Ovoca is pleased to announce that it has signed a conditional acquisition
agreement to acquire a 74% interest in CJSC Ayax Prospectors Artel company ('
Ayax') ('the 'Acquisition') from the Shareholders of Ayax ('New Shareholders').
Ayax owns a 100% interest in the Goltsovoye deposit, a silver deposit located in
the district of Omsukchan in the Magadan Oblast, north east Russia.


As consideration for the Acquisition, Ovoca will issue 110,001,518 new ordinary
shares of 0.025 each ('Ordinary Shares') (the 'Acquisition Shares') and will
make a cash payment of US$1 million within six months of the execution of the
Ayax Acquisition Agreement. The Acquisition Shares will represent approximately
44.3% of the Company's enlarged issued share capital. The Acquisition is
conditional, inter alia, on Mr Leonid Pavlovich Skoptsov, Mr Yuri Ivanovich
Radchenko and Mr Mikhail Alexandrovich Mogutov, being the principal shareholders
in Ayax, being appointed to the Board of the Company and Dr Barrie Oakes, Mr
Roger Turner, Mr Guido Pas, Mr Danesh Varma and Mr Rowan Maule being appointed
to the Board of Ayax.


Upon completion of the Ayax Acquisition Agreement, Ovoca will enter into a
conditional option agreement that gives Ovoca the right, but not the obligation,
to acquire the remaining 26% interest in Ayax at any time between the first and
second anniversary of the date of completion of the acquisition agreement (the '
Option'). The exercise price for the Option is 43,007,250 new Ordinary Shares
('Option Shares') or a cash payment of US$5 million if the market value of the
Option Shares is less than US$5 million at the time of exercise of the Option.


In addition, Davy has been appointed Nominated Adviser to the Company effective
immediately.


Information on Ayax.

Ayax, a registered Russian Closed Joint Stock Company formed in 2002, owns a
100% interest in the Goltsovoye deposit. The Goltsovoye deposit is part of the
'Pestrinskiy Ore Cluster' which covers an area of 640 km2 and forms the southern
flank of the 'Dukat Ore District'. The Goltsovoye deposit is accessible by a
good all-weather road and is 69 km from the regional administrative centre of
Omsukchan, and Bema Gold Corporation's Julietta Mine is situated nearby to the
south. The Goltsovoye deposit was first discovered in the 1980s following the
commissioning of the Dukat Silver Mine, which is located to the north west of
the Goltsovoye deposit. Ayax obtained a mining license for the Goltsovoye
silver deposit in September 2002. The licence renewal date is in 2012 after
which Ayax retains a right of extension, provided Ayax has met all of its
licence obligations.


Ovoca and GBM Consultant Engineers Contractors ('GBM') have completed a study of
the resources, mining methods, mineable reserves, processing and infrastructure
as well as capital and operating costs estimates for a 260,000 tonne a year
underground mine, with a 10 year mine life at the Goltsovoye deposit.
Considerable metallurgical testwork has already been completed by Ayax, and GBM
has carried out a detailed evaluation of the work done and have advised on a
mine and process plant design. Source data has been taken from a previously
completed Russian study prepared by the Institutes VNII-I-Magadan and TsNIGRI
(Moscow) and JSC NBL-Gold, independent metallurgical and engineering
consultants.


Micon International has completed a study of the information provided by Ajax
and the study by Ovoca and GBM and submitted an independent competent persons'
report which concludes: 'Micon considers that the Goltsovoye project represents
a good opportunity to develop a significant silver producer in a highly
prospective and established mining region of Russia'.


Denton Wilde Sapte in Moscow and Deloitte & Touche in Moscow have completed
legal and financial due diligence (respectively) on Ayax for Ovoca.


Goltsovoye is an advanced stage project with C1 and C2 resources, in accordance
with Russian geological estimation standards. These have been determined based
on extensive drilling and underground exploration development conducted by the
Dukat Geological Expedition and was approved by the Soviet State Committee for
Reserves (GKZ) in 1987 at a cut-off grade of 50 grammes per tonne silver. A
recalculation of the resources at various cut off grades has been completed by
Ayax and Ovoca and a revised resource at a 150 grammes per tonne cut-off grade
is as follows:

Category Ore tonnes Silver Grade g/t Silver ozs
C1 1,061,660 1,136.68 38,799,000
C2 1,413,880 781.28 35,515,000
C1 + C2 2,475,540 933.70 74,314,000

(Gold equivalent resources = 1,600,200 ounces based on a 46.44 gold/silver
ratio)


Micon estimate the following:-


Cash operating cost per ounce of silver = US$ 3.67 (including lead revenue
credits)


Net Present Value (pre-tax & pre-debt service)

At $10.00 per ounce silver and $1,050 per tonne lead = US$ millions 111.1
At $12.50 per ounce silver and $1,200 per tonne lead = US$ millions 182.1


Internal Rate of Return (pre-tax & pre-debt service)

At $10.00 per ounce silver and $1,050 per tonne lead = 51.8%
At $12.50 per ounce silver and $1,200 per tonne lead = 70.4%


The New York closing silver bid price was $12.89 per ounce on April 14th 2006.

Upon completion of the Acquisition, Ovoca will immediately commence a bankable
feasibility study with Russian and Western engineering groups and, having
secured all necessary permits, approvals and project finance, intends to work
towards an early construction start-up date.


The above information on Ayax has been reviewed and verified by Mr Roger Turner,
Director and Chairman of Ovoca, for the purposes of the Guidance Note for
Mining, Oil and Gas Companies issued by the London Stock Exchange in March 2006.
Mr Turner, with 40 years of mining engineering, management and consulting
experience, graduated as a mining engineer from the Camborne School of Mines,
has an MSc degree in Economic Geology from Leicester University and is a member
in good standing with the Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and a UK Chartered
Engineer.


Lock-in and Orderly Market Agreements

The New Shareholders will enter into lock-in and orderly market agreements.
Pursuant to these agreements, the New Shareholders will undertake, subject to
certain limited exceptions, not to sell, transfer, grant any option over or
otherwise dispose of the legal, beneficial or other interest that they have in
any Ordinary Shares or other securities in the Company or rights attaching from
any such Ordinary Shares or other securities in the Company for a period of
twelve months following admission of the Acquisition Shares to trading on the
AIM and IEX and. Should the Option Share be issued similar lock-in provisions
will apply for the Option Share for a period of twelve months following
admission of the Option Shares to trading on the AIM and IEX (the ''Lock-up
Periods'). Orderly market arrangements apply for twelve months after the expiry
of the Lock-up Periods, which require the sale of any Ordinary Shares by the New
Shareholders only through the Company's then broker.


Working Capital

Following completion of the Acquisition and having regard to existing cash
resources, Ovoca will not have sufficient working capital for its present
requirements. These requirements include the cost of planned feasibility studies
and other development activities on the Goltsovoye deposit, and the cash element
of the consideration for the Acquisition, continuing exploration work on the
Company's existing exploration assets and other corporate and working capital
purposes. The board of Ovoca has plans to raise the necessary finance to fund
these requirements, by way of private placements or other financial arrangement.
However, there can be no certainty on the availability, or, where available,
on the terms and timing of such financing arrangements. Should the Company not
be able to complete such financing arrangements then it will be unable to
finance its exploration and development programmes for the Goltsovoye deposit
and its existing exploration assets.

Have been in this since 7 pence, and expecting around 50pence by the time we start production on the mine and with rumours of the Russians brnging over other similiar sized projects after the silver mine has been proved a success it has the scope to go even further, see minesite article below -



Minesite : February 20, 2007

Ovoca Gold Should Have Full Bankable Feasibility Study For Goltsovoye Silver Project This Autumn.

The announcement at the beginning of December that Leonid Skoptsov was taking over as chief executive of listed Ovoca Gold, listed in London and Dublin, confirmed, if confirmation was needed, that the future of this company now lies in Russia. Mr Skoptsov had first become involved with Ovoca when it acquired a 74 per cent interest in CJSC Ayax, which is a Russian company controlling the Goltsovoye silver deposit in Magadan in the far north east of Russia, last April. He had already built a track record, as chairman Roger Turner pointed out at the time of his appointment, with the discovery of the Pavlovskoe lead / zinc / silver deposit in 2002 when he was chairman of JSC Pervaya Gornorudnaya Company. He is also a director of the Magadan Geological Expedition to brings the right local political connections which are so vital in Russia.
The acquisition of Golsovoye was mostly in paper giving Mr Skoptsov and his colleagues nearly a 50 per cent holding in Ovoca. In June the company raised 5 million by a placing of shares ad warrants and they contributed 2.01 million to this as a sign that they wanted to follow through with their investment. It is said that they have their hands on a number of other useful projects in the region and these may come the way of Ovoca if they decide to use it as their vehicle. The fact that Mr Skoptsov is out in North America on a roadshow indicates that this may be the case, but for the moment it is one project at a time.

Already Phase 1 of a bankable feasibility study being carried out on Golsovoyeby Wardell Armstrong has proved positive. This included a 25 hole drilling programme to turn the Russian resource to a JORC classified resource. When the project was acquired it had 2.5 million tonnes of Russian C1 and C2 reserves at a grade of 933 g/t silver based on a cut off grade of 150 g/t. That gave it a contained 74.3 million ounces of silver. The latest estimate published this month on Zones 1 and 2 amount to 2.398 million tonnes at an average grade of 895.3 g/t silver and 2.69% lead to give 69 million ozs of silver metal and 78.2 million silver equivalent ounces using the same cut-off. Not a lot of difference, one might say, but some of the longer term shareholders do not seem to appreciate just how good these figures are and are keeping the share price in check as they sell now that the price has reached their original purchase level.

Presumably they have not read the announcement about the study very carefully as they would have seen that Wardelll Armstrong reckon that an analysis of the assay data from diamond drilling and from underground development indicates that silver values may have been understated in the drillholes due to silver losses in the drill core and that when it comes to mining the resource grade could prove to be 20 to 25 per cent higher. And as a bonus there is a further Russian resource, in what equates to the JORC inferred category, in four other zones at Goltsovoye and Wardell Armstrong has not even audited it despite the fact that it could add a further 22.6 million ozs of silver at a grade of 440 g/t.

The deposit occurs on a hill and has already been extensively explored through underground access on three levels so the purchase price already includes an element of development cost. The initial mine design will focus on the measured and indicated resource in Zone 1 only which amounts to 44.5 million ozs silver. All primary development will be trackless using 6 main haulage levels at 60 metre intervals and all ore will exit the mine via adits on the 900metre and 810metre elevations and trucked directly to the process plant. After crushing and grinding the process plant design consist of an initial silver/leadconcentrate from a gravity circuit followed by flotation and the cyanidation of the tailings. Metallurgical testwork indicates that 73.4% of the silver and 77% of the lead can be recovered in the concentrate with a concentrate grade of 35% lead and 12,093 g/t silver.

Based on the Russian figures Micon, a mining consultant, estimated that cash operating costs will be around US$3.67 per ounce of silver and that generated a net present value before tax and service costs of US$111million at a silver price of US$10 an ounce. As the silver price is now US$14/oz it seems safe to assume that these figures are conservative. The early plan by Ovoca was to mine around 260,000 tonnes per year over 9 years for an annual output of six million ounces of silver a year. By the time the bankable feasibility study is completed in the autumn it could be rather more ambitious than this, so will be well worth waiting for.

Ovoca Gold plc ('Ovoca' of the 'Company')




Operational Update




Ovoca (London AIM (OVG.L), Frankfurt (OVX.GR) and Dublin IEX (OVX.IR)) is pleased to announce that an underground reconstruction programme to clear and reinforce Adit 1b to permit access deeper into the Goltsovoye mine and create areas for the placing of drill rigs has commenced as part of the pre-production development programme at the Goltsovoye silver deposit in Magadan. Adit 1b's portal gives access to ore body 2, the richest at Goltsovoye, which is scheduled for mining during the initial years of mine life.




Leonid Skoptsov, the Ovoca CEO, stated:




'The increase in size of the Adit 1b means that the first stage of mine development will now commence. We will gain access to the stoping areas to be developed in the early years of production and create underground diamond drill stations, which will enable us to increase the Proven and Probable reserves. This will also present the opportunity to plan, in detail, the early month's mill head grades from detailed underground sampling outside the areas currently accessible. This is a major step forward in the development of Goltsovoye.'
