Is Gold On Its Way To $1,000 Per Ounce?

Since the Alaskan and California gold rushes of legend, there has always been a tangible aspect to gold that has retained its value even in this day of electronic credits.  Emerging countries on the global trading scene, like China and Russia, now rely on the tangibility of gold.  Individual investors and institutions like something they can hold in their hand other than the greenback. 

There aren't many opportunities in commodities when demand pushes supply with such a force that an entire industry scrambles to meet future needs.  But that's the condition of today's gold markets and a simple look over the shoulder at the rise of gold prices during 2003 explains the surge in drilling.  For many investors, gold now is like the Internet of the 90s.  Invest, wait and then take a profit. 

Our featured company today is right on stride to benefit from the current boom in gold exploration.  Sunburst Acquisitions IV, Inc. (OTCBB: SBAQ) is well positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for gold.  Read on and you'll discover a company that is savvy in its business model and well prepared to execute. 

According to gold speculator Doug Casey who has been in the gold market for 30 years, "Gold isn't just going through the roof, it's going to the moon.  I've seen this happen five times in the past, 1973, 1980, 1983, 1987 and 1996."  According to gold speculator John Kaiser, "The stars are shifting into perfect alignment for a bull market in exploration plays.  A fresh boom is on the horizon as higher metal prices soften the tougher plums still waiting to be be picked, be they well-explored or under-explored regions."

*Sunburst is committed to increasing shareholder value by acquiring gold and silver mining properties that have a history of production and proven reserves and the Company is committed to becoming a positive cash-flow operation in its first year.

*The Company's Cieneguita project has ore deposits containing large amounts of gold that will generate an operating profit of over $3 million a year.

*The Company's Guazapares project has drill-indicated resources of over 500,000 ounces of gold that have been identified in three different mineralized structures.

The mission at Sunburst Acquisitions IV, Inc. ("Sunburst") is to develop the Company into a profitable mid-tier producer of gold and silver metal by focusing on medium-sized deposits amenable to open-pit mining and heap leach processing. 

Sunburst is focused on developing medium-sized, high-grade deposits in which significant cash flow can be generated by mining.  It will initially operate in Mexico, a country in which Mineral Rio Tinto ("MRT"), a joint venture partner of Sunburst, has the mining expertise and the government and industry relations to bring mining properties to production.  Sunburst has selected the Cieneguita project for its first development effort due to the modest investment required to put it back in production and the short time needed to initiate mining.  Sunburst then intends to explore the Guazapares project to upgrade its existing "drill indicated" resources to ore reserves that can go into production.

*To be a cashflow-positive company in the first year of operations - Cieneguita, at capacity, will generate an operating profit of over $3 million a year.
*To initiate mining at Cieneguita within six months at a rate of 20,000 ounces a year.
*To increase the oxide ore reserves of the Cieneguita properties and define an economic process to increase gold production of this project. 
*To develop enough ore reserves at Guazapares and to bring it to production at a minimum rate of 50,000 ounces a year in the next three years. 
*To archive a total annual gold-silver production of 100,000 gold eq. ounces within the next five years.

This project has a total ore reserve of 250,000 ounces of gold of which 100,000 ounces are in oxide and mixed ores.  The initial mining operation will focus on extracting and processing the oxide and mixed ore reserves by heap leach process.  Initial gold production (to be initiated over 4-6 month period) is expected to yield 20,000 ounces per year, which would generate an operating profit of over $3 million a year. It will take 4-6 months to initiate gold production. The project is permitted and has a complete environmental study.  Economic analysis of the mining operation has been proven by previous production. 

Cieneguita Lluvia De Oro has a population of 302 people and can be accessed by air, rail and auto. Communications in Cieneguita range from cellular to CB. The ore reserves at Cieneguita have a total of  51 diamond drill holes (6,700 meters) defining an auriferous zone approximately 1,000 meters long by 200 wide. The Company is preparing a budget for operating the Cieneguita Gold Mine that are estimated at approximately $175.00.

This project is located in a famous old mining district dating back to the 17th century.  It has been explored and drilled in the past by Kennecott, War Eagle and Simmons Co. A drilled indicated resources of over 500,000 ounces of gold has been identified in three different mineralized structures. These structures are open in various directions and by drilling the extensions the existence of additional ore reserves will be determined.  At depth, one of these structures has dimensions (large enough) to host a multimillion-ounce deposit.  Exploration will focus on defining an ore deposit big enough to attract the attention of major companies and to delineate an ore reserve that can support a profitable mid-sized mining operation. 

Guazapares has the infrastructure in place to support a mining operation - including power, water, railroad transportation and road access all year round. There is trained labor for mining available in the area.  MRT, Sunburst's joint venture partner, owns and controls through options with third parties for close to 90% of the mining claims in the district.  Other claims can be optioned if mineralized structures with good geological potential are identified in areas not controlled by MRT.  The best-known structures are in claims already controlled by MRT.
