"IGE's main focus in the quarter was on finalizing the technical and financial feasibility report (Estudode Viabilidade Tecnico-Economico - EVTE) for the Luxinge diamond project in Angola and the Preliminary Assessment (PA) for the Rönnbäcken Nickel project in Sweden.
The EVTE is a key milestone in the application process for a diamond mining licence in Luxinge, and the document was in finalization process during the third quarter. The Rönnbäcken PA was completed and announced in November, after the end of the third quarter. The conclusions in the PA are highly encouraging and suggest a considerable upside to the assessments made at this stage. The PA confirms the value potential of the Rönnbäcken resource and IGE is now moving forward in its efforts trying to involve an industrial partner in the project.
The Group's financial basis was secured through successful equity issues in October. A total of MSEK 89 was raised in a challenging capital market, suggesting that the market has confidence in IGE's value creation potential. The Group moves forward with caution and limited interest bearing debt.
IGE's projects moved forward according to plans in the third quarter, however with some minor delays. The divestment of IGE's 50% ownership in Kilimapesa Gold, an associated company in Kenya, was completed in the quarter. No efforts has been put towards being granted an exemption to sell the initial 6,000 Ct of diamonds recovered by IGE in Luxinge, prior to being granted the mining licence, as focus has been on the completion of the EVTE. Having secured sufficient funding from the equity issues, it is IGE's assessment that a postponed sale is likely to provide increased revenues from these diamonds.
IGE's financial position is now stronger than it has been for many years in combination with a significantly reduced level of capital expenditures within the Group over the last year. The Preliminary Assessment for the Rönnbäcken Nickel resource demonstrates that it is one of the most interesting nickel projects in Europe at the moment. IGE is well positioned for improving operational and financial performance as well as continued growth in 2010" said Tomas Fellbom, CEO of IGE.
The process of applying for the Mining license has progressed according to plan and is, since November 2009, in the hands of the State Mining enterprise, known as Endiama. The IGE team from Luxinge has been working alongside the teams of Endiama and the "Ministry of Mines and Geology" to ensure the exploration results and the financial expectations are in line with the State requirements. There are a number of requirements as explained on IGE website and these have to be thoroughly investigated. IGE, as the majority shareholder in the Partnership agreement within the Luxinge Association, has major support from both Endiama and the Ministry of Mines and Geology.
Once the details have been confirmed within the E.V.T.E (Estudode Viabilidade Tecnico-Economico), a light version of a prefeasibility study, by the teams from Endiama and the Ministry of Mines, the study will be presented to the Council of Administrators of Endiama and then given to the Ministry of Mines. Once approved, the Council of Ministers will ratify the Decree and the Luxinge Association will be a fully commercialized entity. IGE will then have the full commercial right to produce and sell diamonds from the Luxinge concession.
Within the scope of the EVTE, and within the Luxinge Secondary Contract, 50% of the concession area is to relinquish back to the state. The latest exploration work, undertaken by the project has identified the area to be handed back to the state. These are obviously the lowest grade and smallest stone size areas.
The legal and commercial entities within the Board of Directors at Endiama have cleared the path for the approval for the release of the deposited Investment Guarantee assignable to the Luxinge project to IGE. The approval is waiting ratification from the CEO of Endiama.
New work programs have been submitted to each of the Councils for approval. Each of the Councils have agreed to a shared resource strategy in order to lower the need of separate investments and this allows an overall reduced budget for IGE, enabling each of the projects to fulfil their objectives at far less cost. The contracts enable IGE to change the overall expenditure required as long as all the Partners agree with the details. This has been approved and has been the subject of ongoing negotiations within the various partnerships.
A strong message in the work programs is the training and responsibility IGE takes within the exploration program.
IGE Nordic's activities during the third quarter were primarily focused on finalization of a Preliminary Assessment (PA) of its 100% owned Rönnbäcken Nickel Project. The study was completed by the independent mining consultants Scott Wilson Roscoe Postle Associates Inc. ("Scott Wilson RPA"), Canada in November of 2009. The PA confirms the viability of producing a very high grade concentrate with 28% nickel (arguably the highest nickel grade in the world) by means of conventional mining, milling flotation. The PA outlines a base position for the project as well as identifying areas for further definition and improvement.
IGE Nordic received positive assay results from its 2009 summer geological mapping and sampling program at its wholly owned Rönnbäcken Nickel Project located in northern Sweden. The program focused on geological mapping and magnetic surveying of untested areas near current resources. Sampling and assaying of outcrops identified several new targets for drilling in the areas around the two main deposits of Vinberget and Rönnbäcksnäset. The program also resulted in the discovery of a new area with nickel mineralization north of Rönnbäcksnäset and north of the lake, for which an explorations license was granted October 1 2009. IGE Nordic plans to commence a new round of drilling in November 2009, and has secured two drill rigs from Bergteamet AB.
The Preliminary Assessment under NI 43-101 regulations demonstrates the potential to commercially produce a very high grade nickel concentrate using open-pit mining and conventional technology.
The economic analyses on the Rönnbäcken Nickel Project contained in the PA and in this interim report are based on inferred resources, and are preliminary in nature. Inferred resources are considered too geologically speculative to have mining and economic considerations applied to them and to be categorized as mineral reserves. There is no certainty that the reserves development, production, and economic forecasts on which the PA and this press-release are based will be realized.
The entire Preliminary Assessment is posted on the Company's website at www.ige.se.
At the Solvik gold-copper project, (IGE Nordic 50%, Archelon Mineral AB 50%), results were received from geological field work performed in 2009. The field program carried out in 2009, together with earlier work, indicated several areas of gold mineralization in a 17 km long zone. Furthermore, gold mineralization at the Egenäs zone is more extensive than expected.
The agreement between Goldplat Plc and International Gold Exploration IGE AB for the sale of IGE's share in Kilimapesa Gold (Pty) Ltd for 2.7 M USD was completed, and the first payment of USD 1,200,000 was received. The balance is payable in six monthly amounts of US\$250,000 commencing when Kilimapesa Gold's mining licence is issued by the authorities in Kenya.
Exploration activities in Kenya continued. About 420 meters of trenches were dug at the Atieli target. The target was defined through saprolite sampling, which revealed several gold anomalies, including grades of 680, 1680 and 2670 ppb in the saprolite. The trenches exposed series of sandstones, with promising quartz veins, stockworks, and on some occasions clay alteration. The 490 resulting samples are being processed for export to Tanzania for assay at ALS Chemex Laboratories. Preliminary trenching done on the same target by AAPS in 1999 had indicated potential for low-grade high tonnage mineralization, with intercepts of 2 m at 4.54 g/t and 16 m at 2.23 g/t.
During the reported period, IGE's diamond drilling equipment underwent renovation in order to start diamond drilling at the Kogumbo target on the Akala license. The Kogumbo target consists of a set of several quartz veins hosted in basalts. Drilling commenced during the reported quarter.
The company continued its strategic review of possible opportunities for short term gold mine development in the Africa. A short list of suitable projects was prepared and steps were taken to make appropriate contacts.
The Administration of International Gold Exploration IGE AB (publ) hereby submit the interim report for the period January 1st to September 30th 2009, with comparison figures from the corresponding period of the previous year and the most recent annual report.
The Company's activities consist of exploration for mineral deposits and mining. The Company operates in Scandinavia and Africa.
Net investments during the period amount to MSEK 16.7 (107.9). The investments during the period mainly refers to the operations in the Luxinge diamond project and expenditures related to the advancement of the Rönnbäcken nickel project towards the completion of the scoping study.
Cash flow during the period was MSEK -29.5 (-57.5). The negative cash flow during the period is mainly related the development of the Luxinge diamond project and additional work related to the scoping study of the Rönnbäcken nickel project.
Cash and cash equivalents at period end amounted to MSEK 9.3 (70.3). Shareholders Equity amounted to MSEK 230.1 (274.9) at the reporting date, which results in an equity ratio of 82.2 percent (90.0).
The long-term liabilities of the Group are related to a loan given by Svenska Handelsbanken AB for the purchase of equipment to the production site in Luxinge from Volvo, amounting to about MSEK 14.63.

This interim report has been performed according to Annual Accounts Act and IAS 34 Interim Reporting. The interim report has also been performed in accordance with the rules in the Swedish Financial Accounting Standard RFR2. During 2009, the same accounting principles have been applied in this report as in the annual report prepared for the financial year 2008 with the following exceptions (see below) referred to new or revised standards, interpretations and changes adopted by the European Union (EU) which shall apply from 1 January, 2009. Only the new or revised standards which have had an impact on the Group are described below. The Interim report does not contain all the information and disclosures available in the annual report and the interim report should be read together with the annual report for 2008.
The interim report has been prepared in accordance with prevailing IFRS/IAS standards applied by the EU Commission at 1 January 2005. Further description of accounting principles and how the transition to IFRS has affected the Group accounting can be found in the latest annual report of the Group (2008).
The Group has from first of January, 2009 implemented IFRS 8 Operating Segments, which replace IAS 14 Segment reporting. The new standard require that a company provide extended financial and describing disclosures about its reportable operating segments and that segment information is presented from managements perspective, which means that the information is presented in the way it is used within the internal reporting. Reportable segments are lines of businesses or aggregated lines of businesses which fulfil certain specific criteria's. The starting point for identification of reportable segments is the internal reporting as it is reported and is followed up by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM). The Group has identified Group Management as CODM. The Group has identified three reportable segments according to IFRS 8 which are Gold, Diamonds, Nickel and Other.
The implementation of this standard has not had any effect on the Groups total financial position compared to the figures presented in the annual report for 2008. The information about the Groups reportable operating segments is shown in Note "Segment reporting" and comparative figures for prior periods have been adjusted.
The revised standard divide changes in shareholders equity based on transactions with shareholders and other changes. The statement of changes in shareholders equity will only include information regarding shareholder transactions. In addition to this the standard introduce the concept "Group statement of comprehensive income" which show all items referred to revenue and expenses which earlier have been shown in "Group statement of changes in shareholders equity in summary", either in an individual statement or in two coherent statements. The Group has chosen to present the statement of comprehensive income in two statements, "Income statement – Group" and "Statement of comprehensive income summary".
