SASKATOON, March 6 /CNW/ - Claude Resources Inc., a Canadian based gold
mining and oil and gas company, posted record financial results for 1997 on
the strength of higher gold production at its 100% owned Seabee gold mine.
Record production of 58,500 ounces of gold, during the fiscal year ending
December 31, 1997, led to net earnings of $5.1 million ($0.29 per share)
versus a restated 1996 loss of $1.7 million ($0.11 per share).
Cash from operations of $9.6 million ($0.56 per share) compared to a 1996
level of $4.5 million ($0.31 per share).
The fourth quarter of 1997 produced net earnings of $1.7 million ($0.10
per share) and cash from operations of $2.3 million ($0.13 per share).
Oil and gas production accounted for approximately 20% of Claude's net
earnings and cash flow.
Realized gold prices averaged US $325 per ounce in 1997 compared to US
$389 per ounce in 1996,
President Neil McMillan said that higher ore grades and lower operating
costs led to a cash cost of US $215 per ounce in 1997.
He also stated that Claude Resources is expecting 1998 gold production to
equal or exceed 1997 production at a cash cost of US $208 per ounce
