Tristar Gold's (TSXV:TSG; OTCQB: TSGZF) near-term focus is on advancing its Castelo de Sonhos gold project in Para state, Brazil, towards a Preliminary Licence, the most significant permitting milestone for a project in Brazil.
Currently TriStar anticipates potential LP permit receipt in Q1 2024. Public hearing was held on November 22, 2023 following a government site visit completed in June 2023.
2021 preliminary feasibility study for the project outlined an 11-year open pit mine with a 1.4M oz reserve, producing an average of 121,000 gold oz. annually for an after-tax NPV estimate of US$321M - and a 28% after-tax IRR - at US$1,550 per oz. Gold.
Castelo de Sonhos has extensive paleoplacer gold bearing reefs, like the highly profitable Tarkwa and Jacobina mines. These reefs appear to be continuous along strike and at depth.
Key stakeholders include Royal Gold, Auramet, Gold 2000, US Global and Insiders (both Board and Management).
