| House Passes Work Incentives Improvement Act 412-9
Social Security Administration Announces 2.4% Increase In Benefits For 2000
The House Republican leadership has now pledged quick action for a House-Senate conference committee to resolve the differences between HR 1180 and the bill that passed the Senate in June, S 331. The strong bipartisan majority that supported this legislation in the House bodes well for the Work Incentives Improvement Act (WIIA) to be signed into law before Congress adjourns in a few weeks. However, all the parties involved, including the White House, are still struggling to come up with budget "offsets" to "pay-for" all of the health care provisions, especially new state Medicaid options. In order for this to occur, work incentive reform advocates must keep up the pressure on both Congress and the President to fully fund all of the needed expanded health care benefits to make this legislation an effective tool in helping people to get off the SSI and SSDI rolls and enter the workforce.
As was noted in NAMI E-News Vol. 00-50 on October 15, the bill that the House Ways and Means Committee passed last week (HR 3070) made several important changes to the nearly identical bills that passed the Senate and the House Commerce Committee last summer by unanimous votes. Before sending the bill to the full House, Republican leaders inserted the text of HR 3070 into a new version of HR 1180 as a "substitute amendment" (the result being a new bill, with the old bill number).
However, in order to address concerns about the lack of "mandatory" spending for two Medicaid provisions in the bill, changes were made just hours before the House vote. Specifically, leaders on the House Commerce Committee agreed to impose a limit on eligibility up to 250% of the federal poverty level for the optional state Medicaid buy-in expansions. Under congressional budget scoring rules, this change allowed the bill's sponsors to apply the $91 million in "savings" toward making the two other Medicaid provisions - state infrastructure grants and a small portion of the demonstration program for working people who are not yet disabled - "mandatory," rather than "discretionary" funding (meaning that state participation in future years would not have to depend on congressional appropriations).
This 250% cap on eligibility is the same amount that states are already permitted to expand Medicaid under a provision for working people with disabilities under the 1997 Balanced Budget Act (BBA). After nearly two years, only a handful of states have elected to even seek this optional eligibility category. Eliminating this cap remains one of the key reforms in the Work Incentives Improvement Act. WIIA's sponsors in the House and the Senate have pledged to eliminate this restriction in the final bill, once additional financing provisions are found.
It is important to note that the confusing situation regarding the Medicaid sections of the House bill result mainly from the extreme difficulty in coming up with "offsetting pay-fors" that all sides can agree to. This is especially the case in trying to find "offset" savings in the Medicaid program that do not harm people with disabilities and other vulnerable groups. For example, school districts are opposing a change that would alter the way they seek reimbursement for health services provided to Medicaid eligible children in school-based clinics. As a result, this "offset" proposal is likely to undergo further revision and may end up being removed from the bill. These discussions are continuing between leaders in the House and Senate and the White House in an effort to complete action on the WIIA before Congress adjourns for the year in a few weeks.
The bottom line is that all sides are publicly supporting "mandatory" full funding of all of the Medicaid provisions in the bill - if the budget "offsets" that all sides agree on can be found. NAMI advocates are encouraged to continue to contact their members of Congress and President Clinton in order to urge all sides to redouble their efforts to find the budget savings needed to fully fund all of the health care (Medicare and Medicaid) provisions in the Senate bill (S 331). Beyond the struggle to maintain full "mandatory" funding of the Medicaid sections, it is expected that all of the other key provisions in the House and Senate versions of WIIA - the "ticket" program, continuing disability review (CDR) protections, expedited re-entry to cash benefits, the SSDI "2 for 1" sliding scale cash benefit demonstration - will be included in the final bill that is sent to the President.
Finally, it is worth noting that an important change was made in the House bill regarding one of the "offsets" affecting eligibility for SSI and SSDI cash benefits for prisoners. A provision in HR 1180 expands existing requirements Congress imposed on Social Security in 1996 to develop a new system for ensuring that inmates be removed from the SSDI rolls while they are in prison. These rules are further tightened in this bill. However, last week the House Ways and Means Committee added a protection that would exempt inmates eligible for SSDI serving sentences of 30 days and under. This change was intended to ensure that convictions for misdemeanors and minor felonies (all too common for many adults with severe mental illnesses) do not automatically result in loss of eligibility for cash assistance.
NAMI would like to recognize Representatives Rick Lazio (R-NY), John Dingell (D-MI), Henry Waxman (D-CA), Kenny Hulshof (R-MO), Robert Matsui (D-CA), Nancy Johnson (R-CT), Jim Ramstad (R-MN), Tom Bliley (R-VA), Mike Bilirakis (R-FL), Bill Archer (R-TX), E. Clay Shaw (R-FL), Charles Rangel (D-NY), Pete Stark (D-CA) and Ben Cardin (D-MD) for their strong leadership and effort to ensure the passage of meaningful work incentives legislation for people with disabilities, including people with severe mental illnesses. These champions of work incentives reform are already working with their Senate counterparts and the White House to ensure that this bill reaches the finish line before the end of the year.
Social Security Commissioner Ken Apfel announced yesterday a 2.4% cost-of -living increase for Social Security, including SSI and SSDI, beneficiaries to take effect in January 2000. The Social Security cost of living adjustment (COLA) has been automatic since 1975 to protect beneficiaries from inflation and is based each year on the increase in the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers.

Sara Millionaire: A Rocker Girl's Five Closet Essentials
"Essential items" lists are a dime a dozen, but they almost always focus on super-conventional stuff--you know, Exactly What You Must Have in Your Closet in Order to Be Successfully Dressed. Crisp white shirts and classic trenches are all well and good for a certain type of girl, but what about those of us who like a little more edge in our wardrobes? Here's one rock and roller's contribution to the essential items pantheon.
1. The perfect black leather motorcycle jacket (like this one from Topshop, $160) is the khaki trench of the heavy metal set: goes with everything, makes everything look cooler, equally at home over a threadbare tee or a cocktail dress. (I have a vintage Slayer tack pin on my leather jacket's lapel; the skull and crossbones one here is from biker-pins.com.)
2. Oversize T-shirts in a variety of colors and patterns are absolutely required. My go-tos are the mens' BDG tees from Urban Outfitters, which are a mere $24 for two and feel amazingly slouchy, soft, and lived-in.
3. When it comes to bottoms, formfitting leggings with a little added interest like this Cheap Monday pair ($50 at Karmaloop) feel tougher than jeans (any rocker girl will tell you that skinnier is better).
4. Invest in a heavy-duty pair of black leather riding boots (harnesses or buckles optional, but badass, as on this Clark pair, $160 at Zappos) and you won't have to worry about what shoes to wear until summer. They go with everything and make you feel extremely cool (and did I mention badass?).
5. When it comes to accessories, simple but solid is the way to go. Fringed scarves like this one from Forever 21 add texture and interest, and this pyrite knuckle duster from Luv Aj ($99, Shopbop) makes a major statement.

Considering my case, when I change the configuration of any site that affects the virtual host configuration (.vhost), the only file that is in the "sites-available" (domain.com.vhost) is updated, the file located in folder "sites-enabled" (100-domain.com.vhost) it stays the same when that was generated.
For the record, I have identified the problem when I change the IP domain and include an SSL certificate.

Bayless School District Levy Increase (April 2012)
This measure was approved
This measure sought to increase the current district levy by a rate of $.92 per $100 of assessed value in order to further pay for general operational costs, transportation services and offsetting losses in state funding in the district.[2]
Text of measure
The question on the ballot:
|Shall the school board of Bayless Consolidated School District be authorized to increase the operating tax levy for the purpose of restoring bus transportation, attracting and retaining highly qualified staff, maximizing allowable state funding, offsetting loss of state revenue and paying the general operating expenses of the district by $0.92 per one hundred dollars of assessed valuation? If this proposition is approved, the adjusted operating levy of the school district is estimated to be $4.22 per one hundred dollars of assessed valuation.[3]

The chefs at Lal Qila Restaurant, named for the ornate 17th-century Indian monument, serve up a lengthy menu of tandoori- and clay–oven-baked Indian and Pakistani cuisine. Doling out large portions, they sizzle up spice-driven dishes loaded with goat, lamb, seafood, or chicken. Vegetarian options include cheese- and lentil-based dishes that fill the restaurant with exotic scents more effectively than tossing around a boomerang slathered in curry.
The epicurean alchemists at India House, winner of Chicago magazine's Best Indian Buffet designation, draw inspiration from many places: the cuisine of Bombay and Delhi, Indian street fare, and homestyle tandoori cooking. The menu's more than 250 items please vegetarian and meat-eating palates alike with curries and kebabs that use the flavors of fresh cilantro, chilies, and coconut. A reviewer for the Chicago Tribune praises the restaurant?s ?incredibly tender tandoori chicken,? and Chicago magazine says the fiery "Hyderabadi-style mahi-mahi ? is a must." Midday lunchers can dig into a buffet whose myriad options make it difficult to decide which delicious curries should be ladled over naan and rice.
Pita & Kabobz draws primarily from the rich flavors of Indian, Pakistani, and Afghani cuisines to create scrumptious skewer-style fare and more. Send taste buds sojourning through the Eastern hemisphere without enrolling them in the Merchant Marines with first courses such as grape leaves ($2.99) or creamy hummus ($2–$4.50), sided with fresh-baked naan bread.
Taking its name from a style of Indian dance, Thumka Indian Bar and Grill strives to capture the vibrant spirit and flavors of the South Asian subcontinent. The intermingling aromas of saffron, cumin, mint chutney, ginger, fenugreek, coriander, and green chilies fill the dining room, providing a brief overview of a menu that manages to highlight the regional culinary traditions of virtually every corner of the country.
The chefs embrace the northern tradition of roasting skewered chicken, lamb chops, and vegetables inside a geothermally-heated tandoor oven; they also create crepe-like dosas, which traditionally hail from India's southern regions. A selection of fried rice entrees and Szechuan-inspired dishes even demonstrates the chefs' versatility in creating Indo-Chinese cuisine. A la carte dining is also available.
With its simple wooden tables, tiled floors, and burgundy-hued booths, Thumka Indian Bar and Grill's dining room embraces a cozy, homespun spirit. Ornate lamps hang from the ceiling, casting their light across mustard-yellow walls, which are adorned with bronze sculptures and colonial-style windows. The warm ambiance makes the dining space an ideal place for birthday celebrations or hosting catered events.

"Lent" comes from the Anglo-Saxon word lencton – meaning "spring" or "lengthening" from the time of year when the days grow long. In 2011, Lent begins on Ash Wednesday (March 9) and ends with the Easter Triduum (Maundy Thursday through Easter Day), covering 40 days (excluding Sundays which are little feasts of the Resurrection). Some believe that the word "Lent" may derive from the Latin lentare, which means "to bend." This understanding reinforces a sense of Lent as a time of preparation for personal and collective transformation. Having nurtured ourselves through Advent, Christmas and Epiphany, Lent becomes the time to look truthfully at ourselves and make changes.
The Church has the custom of not speaking or singing the word "Alleluia" during Lent. Expressing joy, putting it "away" for Lent is like putting away a favorite toy for a while – to appreciate it better later. Churches often take banners down; eliminate flowers in the sanctuary. Our Sunday readings and prayers take on a more penitential tone. A symbolic ritual to help children move into this season is to "say goodbye" to the Alleluia. Decorate a banner or poster board with the word "Alleluia" in large letters. Everyone can participate in decorating the poster with markers, glitter, stickers, sequins, etc. Using the below prayer, it can then be 'veiled,' put in a dark corner or closet of the church, or physically buried if the ground in your region is not frozen or covered with snow (make sure you put it in a waterproof bag or container and mark the spot!). On Easter, there can be a celebration as it is unburied!
A Ritual for Saying "Goodbye"
Reading: Psalm 112:1-7
Song: A favorite Alleluia song
Leader: It's time to say goodbye to our friend, the alleluia, to let it rest for a while, so that it will return to us at Easter full of enthusiasm to remind us again who we really are: loved children of God.
Prayer: Lord God, our creator, as we bury this sign of heaven's song, help us to turn ourselves to living a good Lent. Help us to give up things that stand between us and your love, and walk with Jesus on the road that leads us closer to you. We give up our alleluia only for a while so that we may make a more beautiful music in our heart and life when we sing it again at Easter. Amen.
Leader: You are now invited to say your own good-bye to the alleluia, if you wish.
Prayer: Lord, we have given up for a time the song of heaven so that we may prepare our hearts and minds to be ready for heaven. Help us, in Jesus, to die to selfish habits that keep us from you and to live more fully your peace and joy. Help us to be renewed in your Spirit as we live this Lend. Amen.

South Africa's Home Affairs Minister Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma, who is bidding to lead the African Union, urged African countries to take charge of their mineral wealth to ensure their citizens derive greater benefit.
"We need to take control of our mineral resources," Dlamini-Zuma said in a speech to the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association in Johannesburg yesterday. "At the moment, the company doing the extraction or beneficiation gets the resources, while the country and its people receive very little."
Her comments follow a debate within South Africa's ruling African National Congress over whether to nationalize mines or increase taxes on the industry. The party will make a final decision on mining policy at its national conference in December.
Africa has about 12 percent of the world's known oil reserves and 40 percent of its gold, resources that should be utilized to attract more investment to the world's poorest continent, Dlamini-Zuma said.

Winter's Tale
Baker & Taylor
When master mechanic Peter Lake attempts to rob a mansion on the Upper West Side, he is caught by young Beverly Penn, the terminally ill daughter of the house, and their subsequent love sends Peter on a desperate personal journey
Harcourt Publishing
Though he thinks hte house is empty, the daughter of the house is home. Thus begins the love between Peter Lake, a middle-aged Irish burglar, and Beverly Penn, a young girl, who is dying.
Peter Lake, a simple, uneducated man, because of a love that, at first he does not fully understand, is driven to stop time and bring back the dead. His great struggle, in a city ever alight with its own energy and beseiged by unprecedented winters, is one of the most beautiful and extraordinary stories of American literature.

"A sad tale's best for winter."-Shakespeare
I really enjoyed Helprin's writing and certain specific passages of the book were truly lyrical in nature. Might not appeal to everyone, but then I've always despised Moby Dick, and some actually enjoyed that.
I loved this book so much half way through I went out and bought it. I want to keep it on my shelves!
Pennie Clark Ianniciello, Costco's book buyer, has chosen Winter's Tale by Mark Helprin as her pick of the month for March 2014.
I love this book. I re-read it every year.
This new age dream state writing does not appeal to me. I struggled for 100 pages and gave up. Too much implied violence, neglect and dark humour.
The first time I tried to read this, many years ago, I gave up in the middle. I finally took it up again and read it to the end, after reading "The Golem and the Jinni" which has a somewhat similar theme (and which I'd also highly recommend). It's dense but highly rewarding. Set aside a good block of time (in my case a week's vacation) and some preconceptions about time and reality, and enjoy!
I'm pretty sure I do not pocess the skills to properly describe this book. It's beautifully written and had me wishing the New York Helprin created in it really exsisted. Don't expect all your questions to be answered or expect easy moralization. There is good and bad, light and dark, stars and snow, past and future/past. Helprin's language makes everything in his New York beautiful, even the ugly parts.
Just a gorgeous novel. Magical and enchanting. Deeply moving.
Great read. Time is stretched over several generations, all in the winter. Reading this book has been known to cause the weather to lock into winter for the duration of the reading.

I've always loved shotguns mfg. by the Italians. Their craftsman have been making them for hundreds of years and they certainly have them down to an art. This V. Bernardelli is a fairly reasonably priced side by side with 28" full and modified barrels, single selective trigger, splinter forend and automatic ejectors is no longer being produced, but is a well made shotgun with all the bells and whistles that includes fancy wood with a satin finish with real nice engraving that you'd expect with a fine shotgun, as well as the addition of factory sling swivels to attach a sling in order to make things a little more pleasant while carrying it around.
A number of years ago I did take it out in the field, but unfortunately found no game to shoot. Because it was getting dark I had to call it a day without even firing a shot, which is what I did intended to do. So it ended up in the back of the safe with the other guns and its been there ever since. I just seemed to forget about it over the years while shooting my other guns and having some physical difficulties kept me from hunting. Maybe after the winter I'll take it out to a range just to have a little enjoyment firing it.
I felt there are people out there who like doubles and since everything is tactical and plastic seeing this type of shotgun might be nice just for a little change of pace.

Thank heavens someone else on the planet is not into the cheapest gun on the planet, with a flashlight and a bayonet lug. Vincenzo (sp?) Bernardelli Shotguns are excellent guns in my experience. The straight grip, double trigger versions are outstanding bird guns - I have no experience with the pistol gripped models. Unfortunately, they are no longer made, but many fine examples can still be found out there. There are also S. Bernardellis out there, and while they aren't bad, they are not up to the same level in my opinion, or many others.
What could have happened... did.

Word on the street: Foam and Fabric on Biltmore in downtown Asheville to close
Could the property be redeveloped for yet another downtown hotel?
Could the property be redeveloped for yet another downtown hotel?
Hyatt Place is the first in a wave of new hotel construction in downtown Asheville.
By my count, there are 7 Asheville hotels announced or under construction, with three others rumored to be in the works.
Village Hotel will have 209 rooms and will be a four-story, 130,000-square-foot building adjacent to the winery in Antler Village.
The new hotel will be built near Antler Village on the estate.
Asheville is on the verge of a hotel building boom.
Estate officials on Monday filed a zoning application.
This race, in which racers will be running alongside horseback riders, is set for September on the beautiful Biltmore Estate.
The new hotel under consideration would be located in Antler Village and have 190 rooms.
Tickets go on sale May 7 for this concert series set on the lovely grounds of the Biltmore Estate.
The Biltmore Estate's flock of hens boasts many of the same heritage breeds raised in George Vanderbilt's time. There's quail, too.
Online readers of TheKnot.com voted on each element of the wedding of Rebekah Gregory and Pete DiMartino.
What might Biltmore have planned?
This custom tour will put a spotlight on Biltmore Estate's canola fields, solar panel projects and more.
TheKnot.com picked the couple for a dream wedding, which was held today.
This follows recent news of a half-Ironman coming to Lake Logan next year.
There's plenty more: The Asheville Tree Map; Christmas tree raising at Biltmore Estate; pet adoption events…
The race is set for March 16, 2014, on the grounds of the grand estate.
Seats are available for a $65-a-head, six-course meal featuring locally grown food and locally made beer by Oskar Blues.
A new hotel on the estate is planned for the Antler Hill Village area.
Biltmore officials are said to be brushing off plans for a second hotel on estate property.
Original upholstery and velvet draperies have been painstakingly reproduced for the second-floor living hall and salon rooms at the Biltmore House.
Biltmore went from a 6-acre, 1.2 mw solar system to a 9-acre, 1.7 mw system.
Bellamy Young, a star of "Scandal," was posing for the September issue of "Southern Living."

These spring flowers taken last year just before the roses bloomed.
All these are blooming now, except for the pink senecio which didn't last. As happens every year (it seems), there is a heat wave this week that will surely open the roses too fast for my taste– sigh.

University Of The Rockies Announces Constellation
DENVER, Aug. 27, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- University of the Rockies announced today the launch of Constellation, a new online learning platform to be used by its students. The platform consists of engaging web-based course materials, which include both text and multimedia assets that were developed in cooperation with University of the Rockies faculty, as well as subject matter experts from across the country.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120509/LA03227LOGO-b)
"At University of the Rockies, we provide our students with an attainable quality education and are always seeking to improve the overall student experience through new technologies and methods," said Dr. Charlita Shelton, President of University of the Rockies. "Our faculty and staff exhibit a remarkable willingness to innovate and adapt in keeping with today's trends and available resources. We expect the students at Rockies to benefit significantly from this new system, both in terms of making education more affordable and in making education more adaptive to their personal schedule."
"We believe that Constellation raises the bar for other learning platforms," continued Shelton. "Its features and capabilities enhance content delivery by incorporating elements of modern communication into course materials. Constellation courses offer a variety of multimedia, interactivity, and disability-accessible content to better serve students and their personal learning styles."Quality CurriculumGiven the close alignment of materials with University of the Rockies core learning outcomes, a more relevant and comprehensive education experience is provided to students. Constellation also presents opportunities for tighter integration with assessment tools used by University of the Rockies' parent company, Bridgepoint Education. Those include Waypoint Outcomes' interactive assessment tools and surveys that develop rich data on student learning outcomes and help assure optimum online instruction for students. Waypoint Outcomes was acquired by Bridgepoint Education in 2009. Technological InnovationConstellation materials are displayed in a proprietary, browser-based reader developed and owned by Bridgepoint Education. The innovative Constellation Reader is included with the course materials and gives students an interactive web-based experience. It enables students to search and download multiple versions of the materials like PDF and ePub, and also creates highlights, notes, and bookmarks. While full functionality is best enjoyed with the Constellation reader, students may also engage with the materials on a variety of devices, including web-enabled cell phones like Android Smartphones and tablets such as the iPad. Students are able to use their course materials in any way that works best for them. They can enjoy a full audio version of the materials, download materials to various devices, print them without restriction, keep them for future reference, or share the materials with colleagues.

For more than a decade, the rich history of Tempe's Hayden Flour Mill has been overshadowed by its deteriorating state and a fence that kept the public at bay.
Even the city's effort to reuse the mill is a story of its own, stretching back to before the mill closed in 1998.
But a modest renovation has finally transformed the eyesore into an inviting landmark that opened Tuesday.
The public has been eager to have some access to the mill for years because of its history, said Nancy Hormann, executive director of the Downtown Tempe Community. She's glad it is taking its rightful place as one of downtown's prime attractions.
"We're very excited about it because it was our gateway and it is the first thing you see when you come across the bridge, so now having it a historical destination as well as an entertainment venue really personifies what Mill Avenue is," Hormann said. "People are so excited about the mill."
The $350,000 project is mostly done but some work will continue until a Sept. 20 dedication party. The most significant unfinished project is the mill's peeling paint and a faded mural depicting a sack of flour. Some businesses want to refresh the building with paint, while historic advocates called for leaving the building alone because the peeling paint has revealed older signs underneath. The City Council is expected to decide the issue this summer.
Opinions are mixed, Hormann said.
"People are just excited to have the fences come down so you can actually see it and have a place that's a community gathering spot, so I don't think It matters one way or another whether it's painted or not painted," Hormann said.
When fall arrives, the DTC will program the space with date night movies, yoga, events for moms and their young children, weddings and more.
A grass plaza north of the mill features a small stage and can host about 250 people. Visitors can peer through window openings on the building's north side to see milling equipment, and adjacent signs depict the mill's history dating to its founding in 1874 by Tempe founder Charles Trumbull Hayden. When the mill closed in 1998, it was the longest continually operating business in Arizona.
Tempe gained ownership of the mill after working with two developers who failed to meet deadlines to restore the mill while adding new buildings around it. The city anticipates it will work with another developer on a more thorough restoration when the economy improves.
The city won't offer tours because of liability issues. But former mill employee Bill Mitchell led media tours Tuesday to share his memories of the once-thriving industrial facility. Mitchell said the mill once offered more than 1,000 products for commercial clients and for on-sale retail, ranging from one-ounce sprinkles to 100-lbs flour bags.
Mitchell started sweeping the floor in 1961 and left in 1982 as superintendant to work at an Illinois mill. He recalled the milling equipment was so deafening that workers didn't listen to discover when machinery needed attention.
"A good miller could sit on the concrete floor and tell what was wrong just by the feel of it," Mitchell said.
He knew the mill so well that when archeologists were searching several years ago for a stone arch thought to have been destroyed, Mitchell informed them it was buried 17 feet below a certain spot. He also came to know members of the Hayden family and met former President Lyndon Johnson at the funeral of former U.S. Sen. Carl Hayden. Mitchell said his association with the mill wasn't intended.
"It was a temporary job when I got out of the Navy," he said. "I got to looking at it and thought, damn this is cool. And 40 years later, I retired."

CSH Mine Completes Its New Additional 30,000 Tpd Crushing System And Commences Testing
In TO371 transmitted at 09:21e today, there were errors in the second bullet point. "60%" should have read "50%" and "20%" should have read "25%". Corrected copy follows:
CSH Mine completes its new additional 30,000 tpd crushing system and commences testing
VANCOUVER, Aug. 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ - China Gold International Resources Corp. Ltd. (TSX: CGG; HKEx: 2099) (the "Company" or "China Gold International Resources") is pleased to report that expansion construction at the Company's Chang Shan Hao Gold Mine (the "CSH Mine", the "CSH Gold Mine" or "CSH") is progressing rapidly and is in line with the expected timeline. The Company reached a monumental milestone in the expansion construction process by completing its new additional 30,000 tpd crushing system, which is currently being tested. The Company would like to provide an update on the CSH Mine expansion.
CSH Expansion Highlights and Crushing Plant Commissioning Ceremony:
- A ribbon cutting ceremony was held at CSH on August 1, 2013 for a test run on its newly completed 30,000 tpd stand-alone crushing facility.
- The heap leaching system construction is progressing according to the schedule. The leach pad liner bedding is 100% complete, with 50% of geomembrane complete and 25% of overliner material complete and is now ready for newly crushed ore stacking.
- Construction of the new ADR (Absorption, Desorption and Refining) plant system is completed. The Company expects first gold pour at this new plant in the 4th quarter of 2013.
As set out in the mine expansion feasibility study completed and filed in November 2012, the CSH Mine's processing capacity is expected to double from 30,000 tpd to 60,000 tpd. Gold production is also expected to nearly double from its 2012 level of 139,443 ounces per annum to about 260,000 ounces per annum by 2015. According to the feasibility study, estimated capital expenditure for the expansion was approximately US$213 million, and the after-tax NPV of the project is US$642 million at a 9% discount rate. Mr. Xin Song, the CEO and Executive Director of the Company, attended the commissioning ceremony for the crushing facility and reviewed the progress of the rest of the expansion. He commented, "We are very pleased with rapid execution of our expansion plans on both of our mines. We are proud to assure our shareholders that we are upholding our commitment to them on the expansion construction timeline. CSH mine has made a tremendous progress to complete the crushing facility ahead of the schedule by utilizing the talents of our people and the strengths of our major shareholder China National Gold. I would like to congratulate all members of our team at China Gold International Resources on this progress. I would also like to thank our board and shareholders, who continue to believe in and support us in our efforts." Future Outlook for CSH's Expansion
- Expected full completion in the fourth quarter of 2013.
- Expected production of 145,000 ounces of gold from the CSH Mine in 2013.
- Expected to produce at about 80% of the full 60,000 tpd capacity in 2014 due to the production ramp up period required after the construction is completed.
- Expected to produce at full 60,000 tpd capacity by 2015.
