SECTION 7 – REGULATION FD
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
In the news release, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 99.1, Nord also disclosed that:
in the quarter ended June 30, 2008, it more than doubled its sales of copper cathodes, reflecting the fact that this was Nord’s first full quarter of production from leaching the existing ore heaps at the Johnson Camp Mine, after achieving commercial production on February 1, 2008;
it currently estimates the capital cost to reactivate the Johnson Camp Mine to be approximately $34 million, of which Nord has spent $21.4 million as of June 30, 2008;
as of June 30, 2008, Nord had $13 million remaining undrawn under the $25 million secured term-loan credit facility arranged in June 2007 with Nedbank Limited; and
based on its current assessments, outlook and forecasts with respect to the Johnson Camp Mine, Nord believes that it has access to sufficient funds to meet its estimated capital requirements for the reactivation plan of the Mine.
The information in Item 7.01 of this report, and the related information in Item 9.01 and the exhibit, are being furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 of Form 8-K and General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K.
