Restarting a Bankrupt Gold Mine: $1.2B Failure to Cash Flow

At The Rule Symposium at The Boca Raton Hotel in Florida, Shane Williams, President & CEO of West Red Lake Gold Mines Ltd. (TSXV: WRLG | OTCQB: WRLGF), outlined the company’s strategy to revitalize the Madson mine project, recently acquired from Pure Gold.

Williams expressed a positive outlook on the gold market, citing increased demand from Eastern countries and central banks. He provided insight into Pure Gold’s previous setbacks, attributing them to an overly aggressive, debt-driven approach and inadequate geological understanding.

West Red Lake’s approach contrasts sharply with its predecessor’s. The company aims to recommence production by 2025, prioritizing comprehensive geological work while capitalizing on the existing infrastructure. This measured strategy seeks to mitigate risks and ensure sustainable operations.

“We’re buying capital equipment already, we’re buying some equipment that the previous team didn’t buy. The plan would be early next year to start the ramp up, and full production mid-2025. So it’s really a quick return to cash flow,” Williams explained.
