Timberline Announces First Quarter 2013 Financial Results
(firmenpresse) - COEUR D'ALENE, IDAHO -- (Marketwire) -- 02/14/13 -- Timberline Resources Corporation (TSX VENTURE: TBR)(NYSE Amex: TLR)(NYSE MKT: TLR) ("Timberline" or the "Company") today announced consolidated financial results for its first fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2012. A summary of selected financial results is presented in the following table:
Timberline reported a consolidated net loss of $1.20 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2012, including exploration expenditures of $0.81 million. The Company's exploration expenditures during the quarter were related primarily to the recently completed drill program and ongoing metallurgical, engineering, and environmental studies at the Lookout Mountain Project on the Company's South Eureka Property in Nevada. As previously reported, the drilling was primarily designed to upgrade the existing resource and collect material for metallurgical test work. Results are expected to demonstrate excellent continuity of mineralization and metallurgical characteristics for low-cost, heap-leach processing.
Timberline's President and CEO, Paul Dircksen, said, "We expect to release an updated resource estimate for Lookout Mountain within the next few weeks with much of the previous inferred resource upgraded to the measured and indicated category(1)(2). Our results at Lookout Mountain have continued to be encouraging and we intend to incorporate the resource estimate into a Preliminary Economic Assessment this spring. At Butte Highlands, the permitting process continues to advance with the Montana Department of Environmental Quality and we still expect to receive all permits for development and to commence operations this year."
As previously announced, in November 2011 Timberline closed the sale of its Timberline Drilling, Inc. ("TDI") subsidiary. The results of TDI are reported in the Company's financial statements under discontinued operations. The Company's consolidated results include income from discontinued operations of $2.12 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2011. The income from discontinued operations for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 includes a gain on the sale of TDI of $1.64 million.
