Dynasty Reports Financial Results for the Six and Three Months Ended June 30, 2016

31.08.2016  |  Marketwired

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Aug 30, 2016) - Dynasty Metals & Mining Inc. ("Dynasty" or the "Company") (TSX:DMM)(OTCQX:DMMIF) announces that it has released its unaudited consolidated financial statements for the six and three months ended June 30, 2016 (the "Financial Statements"). The selected financial information presented herein is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read in conjunction with, the Financial Statements and the related notes thereto and the Company's management's discussion and analysis ("MD&A"), which are available on the Company's website (www.dynastymining.com) and on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).

All dollar amounts in United States dollars unless otherwise stated.

Overview

The ongoing labour situation at the Zaruma mine impacted production for the second quarter of 2016. As a result, tonnage mined during the second quarter of 2016 was only 3,860 tonnes, a decrease of 15,723 tonnes compared to the previous quarter. Grade of material mined also continued to be low at 2.74 g/t Au.

As previously announced, the majority of the workers have returned to the mine and mining activity has restarted. Dynasty is also considering supplementing its existing underground labour force with contract miners to increase tonnage from the mine.

With very low tonnage mined in the second quarter of 2016, the Zaruma mill was mostly paralyzed over this period. Due to high fixed costs at the Zaruma mill, running lower tonnage causes a significant increase in the all-in cash cost per ounce. Dynasty looks forward to implementing the new investors' plan upon closing of the transaction contemplated by the letter of intent announced on August 16, 2016 (the "LOI"), in order to ramp up production at the Zaruma mine while also progressing the Green Oil contract. The additional tonnage would result in a decrease in the overall cash cost to process each ounce.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

As at June 30, 2016 the Company had cash resources of $27,000 and a working capital deficit (current assets less current liabilities) of $16.1 million compared to cash resources of $0.45 million and a working capital deficit of $8.7 million as at December 31, 2015.

As at June 30, 2016 and the date of this report the Company's accounts payable includes some balances which are significantly overdue, including but not limited to approximately $3.8 million in aggregate of income taxes, royalties, sales taxes and other withholding taxes owed to the Ecuador Government with which the Company is currently negotiating to defer these amounts. These negotiations are ongoing and there is no assurance they will be successful.

Continuing operations are dependent upon the Company being able to successfully negotiate the deferral of taxation amounts owed to the Ecuador government and the Company's ability in the future to mitigate the risks and overcome the challenges generally associated with comparable development and early stage production enterprises. Most significantly, it must either generate sufficient cash flow from the sale of precious metals in the future or secure additional working capital as required, none of which can be assured.

More specifically, the operational improvement of the Zaruma Project, the ability to mine the Dynasty Goldfield Project to feed the Zaruma mill, the availability of financing through debt, equity or the profitable sale of assets and the level of funding by potential business partners will determine the Company's working capital requirements over the next 12 months. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to obtain additional funding, the success of which cannot be assured. These conditions and events cast significant doubt on the assumption that the company may continue to be a going concern.
