Mr. Rana Vig reports
MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT & CEO OF BLUE LAGOON RESOURCES
Blue Lagoon Resources Inc. has shared a message from the president of the company.
Dear shareholders and investors,
We are now at one of the most exciting moments in Blue Lagoon Resources' history. With our
final mine permits now secured,
we have officially entered the final stretch toward
gold and silver production at our high-grade Dome Mountain gold project.
A rare and unique opportunity
Most junior mining companies spend years exploring with only the hope of one day making it to production. Those few that do receive a mine permit must still
raise and spend tens -- if not hundreds -- of millions of dollars
to build infrastructure and finance development before ever mining an ounce of gold.
Blue Lagoon is different
Over the past few years, we have strategically
invested more than $30-million
into Dome Mountain, ensuring that when we reached this milestone, we would be ready to move forward with minimal additional capital requirements. Now, with just
approximately $3-million in additional capex
(capital expenditures),
we will be in a position to
begin mining operations
-- a remarkably low cost compared with industry norms.
A demonstration of insider confidence
To further demonstrate our confidence in the future of Blue Lagoon, both I and our director, Gurdeep Bains, have each exercised one million options and added these shares to our existing positions. Unlike many executives who fund their option exercises by selling stock into the market, neither of us sold a single share to finance this transaction.
This decision reflects our belief in the long-term value and growth potential of Blue Lagoon and reinforces our commitment to aligning our interests with those of our shareholders.
Strategic path forward
With our permits in hand, we are laser focused on preparing for production, targeting a start date as early as
July, 2025.
Key activities now under way include:
-
Engaging technical staff and mining contractors;
-
Completing the installation of the planned
water treatment facility;
-
Finalizing infrastructure and equipment needs.
As we transition into production, our strategy is clear:
generate and reinvest cash flow from operations to self-finance future exploration.
Dome Mountain is a
district-scale property
with 15 known high-grade gold veins spread across its vast 20,000 plus hectares, yet
less than 10 per cent has been explored to date.
Our goal is to
unlock the full potential of this high-grade gold system while minimizing dilution to our shareholders.
Additionally, we will invest in
infill drilling
to expand our known resource, enhance mine planning and extend the mine life -- ensuring sustainable, long-term growth.
Strong partnership with Lake Babine Nation
Achieving this milestone would not have been possible without the support and collaboration of
Lake Babine Nation.
Their leadership, guidance and commitment to responsible resource development have been invaluable throughout this process. We are proud to have built a strong working relationship based on mutual respect and shared goals, ensuring that the Dome Mountain project moves forward in a way that brings meaningful benefits to the community while upholding the highest environmental and operational standards. This partnership will continue to be a cornerstone of our success as we advance toward production.
Partnership with Nicola Mining: a proven advantage
Our
toll milling agreement with Nicola Mining
provides us with an efficient and cost-effective processing solution. In 2021, we successfully
processed 5,000 tonnes
of Dome Mountain material at Nicola's mill, giving us invaluable real-world experience. This early work allowed us to optimize logistics, improve efficiencies and fine-tune our operational strategy -- ensuring a smooth path as we now move toward full-scale production.
Further strengthening our relationship,
Nicola Mining made a $1-million strategic investment
in Blue Lagoon through a
private placement announced on Jan. 17, 2024. This investment demonstrates
Nicola's confidence in the future of Dome Mountain and our ability to execute on our production plans. Having our
milling partner as a shareholder
further aligns our interests, reinforcing our commitment to
efficient production, cost control and long-term value creation
for all stakeholders.
Delivering value for shareholders
Receiving our final mine permit is an
extremely rare accomplishment
in the junior mining sector. Even rarer is reaching this stage
with an advanced, fully permitted project and a clear, near-term path to production -- with minimal capital requirements
.
With strong fundamentals, a fully permitted high-grade gold mine and a well-defined production strategy,
Blue Lagoon Resources is positioned for a breakthrough year in 2025.
I want to personally thank our shareholders for your continued trust and support as we take this
final step toward becoming British Columbia's next gold and silver producer.
Sincerely,
Rana Vig
President and chief executive officer
Blue Lagoon Resources
We seek Safe Harbor.
