For the first half of 1995, consolidated net income was $8.8 million, which after consideration for quarterly dividends to preferred shareholders, resulted in income of $5 million, or 6 cents per share. This compares with consolidated net income of $5.9 million, which, after consideration for quarterly dividends to preferred shareholders, resulted in income of $2.2 million, or 3 cents per share, during the same period in 1994. Second-quarter gross revenue for 1995 was $86.4 million, compared with $60.2 million in 1994.

Attributable gold production for the second quarter was approximately 147,000 ounces, compared with 114,000 ounces in the same period a year earlier. For the first half of 1995, gold production remains generally on target totaling 280,000 attributable ounces, compared with 231,000 ounces during the first half of 1994.

Cash and total operating costs at Cindy are expected to be less than originally targeted for 1995. The Kori Kollo mine in Bolivia continues to perform well. Production there attributable to BMG was slightly above target at 73,000 ounces in the second quarter. The new recovery enhancement system is in the initial start-up phase and is expected to be in full operation by late September September: see month. . This system is expected to improve recovery rates from the present 69 percent to as much as 78 percent. Total 1995 gold production at Kori Kollo is expected to be approximately 330,000 ounces, with BMG's attributable share about 290,000 ounces. Cash production costs at Kori Kollo averaged $165 per ounce during the first half of this year; however, BMG's mid-year update still calls for cash costs there to increase to about $181 for the full year, as processing shifts exclusively to the more refractory sulfide ore. Total operating costs are expected to average about $268 per ounce in 1995.

Draft EIS (1) (Executive Information System) An information system that consolidates and summarizes ongoing transactions within the organization. It provides top management with all the information it requires at all times from internal and external sources. Issued for Crown Jewel The Crown Jewel project in Washington state continues to advance through the permitting process. The Draft Environmental Impact Statement was issued at the end of June June: see month. , and a 60-day public comment period is now under way. Following this period, approximately nine months to one year of work by the various agencies involved will be required before the final EIS is issued. The project also received its so-called first-half certificate from the Bureau of Land Management during the second quarter regarding its patent applications. Assuming the above permitting schedule and no legal appeals, the company anticipates a 1997 start-up of the 180,000-ounce-per-year project, in which it will earn a 54 percent interest. The Lihir property, in Papua New Guinea, is currently scheduled to be in operation in early 1998. BMG's subsidiary, Niugini Mining, currently owns a 30 percent interest in the project following payment of $48 million to RTZ RTZ Rio Tinto Zinc RTZ Return To Zero RTZ Return to Zork (game) RTZ Retail Trade Zone Corp. plc as consideration for an added 16- percent stake in the venture. In order to help meet the funding obligations associated with the 30-percent ownership in Lihir, NML is raising approximately $46 million (Australian Australian pertaining to or originating in Australia. Australian bat lyssavirus disease see Australian bat lyssavirus disease.

The prospectus for these options was filed in mid-June with the Australian Stock Exchange Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) Australia's major securities market, formed when the six state stock exchanges (Adelaide, Brisbane, Hobart, Melbourne, Perth, and Sydney stock exchanges) were merged in 1987. . These options were issued on the basis of one free option for every four NML shares held, and are exercisable for a period of eight months. Battle Mountain Gold has agreed to subunderwrite the exercise of all of the options issued to BMG by NML, thus allowing BMG to maintain its 50.5 percent interest in Niugini Mining.

LGL will then own, fund, develop and operate the project through contract with RTZ.
