• It’s all in the eyes ……
• Darkness, shadows, gloom.
• Fear, perhaps panic
• Uncertainty
• Hysteria
• Claustrophobia
• Searching for a way out
• But there is light.
• We have a lot of digging out to do, but will emerge into the sunlight
• There is nothing like seeing the sun again.

“There’s a lot of opportunity for M&A out there. The seniors and the intermediates have watched higher metal prices cause their treasuries to fill up and that’s going to burn a hole in their pocket.”
-Rob McEwen CEO, Goldcorp Inc.
Quality is an issue. Ore grades have tumbled from an average of 12 grams per tonne in 1950 to roughly 3 grams in Australia, Canada and the US. In some cases, cutoff grades have dipped to 1 gram per tonne. "The next cutoff grade is dirt…..”
-Pierre Lassonde Chairman, Franco Nevada
“We have a tremendous choice of the things that we can invest in to grow. We are able to select only the best projects so that we actually do get some of the highest capital productivity….”
A slowdown in demand for minerals over the next five years makes cutting costs and boosting productivity a priority.
“I’m committed to drive an agenda of productivity and that will almost certainly be a top theme.”
- Andrew Mackenzie, Chief Executive, BHP Billiton

“"To be brutally frank, our industry lags the petroleum, manufacturing and aviation sectors and other more progressive and innovative heavy industry players in terms of operating practices – there is no reason why our industry should not use the best from all of these 'restless innovators'."
-Mark Cutifani CEO, Anglo American
“ …..what a disaster 2012 was for juniors. The market for initial public offerings came to a virtual standstill with volumes down 40% and proceeds collapsing by more than 80% to just $1.3 billion….. A reduction in average proceeds to junior companies to just $4 million….
“The capital strike by many mining and metals companies in the face of rising costs and softer prices in 2012 will continue until commodity prices recover sufficiently to encourage new investment.” -Lee Downham, Ernst & Young
“Appetite for controversy is decreasing…..there’s an expectation that most deals will be smaller and more digestible, triggered by companies with successful track records from both deal and project development.” -Tim Goldsmith, Price Waterhouse Coopers

Middle Market Fundraising – Private Equity

dle
-Mark
et
Fundra
isin
g1. Despite headwinds both the number of funds closed and
the amount of capital raised increased for the second consecutive year – signs of life
2. Majority of fundraising gains has stemmed from resurgence in larger vehicles – particularly in the USD 1-5 billion range
3. Commodity Traders and Resource Funds are starting to re-commit to the space and direct significant capital allocation.
4. Joint Ventures and Earn-in’s with Off-take contracts are becoming a common alternative financing avenue.
5. Earlier-stage/development capital is selectively available6. Royalty structures/streaming continues to have a seat at
the table, but Resources Funds typically take less of the upside economics.
7. Bridge Finance/Mezzanine finance is becoming more readily available with less stringent covenants/conditions than project finance or traditional bank lending.
