  "Copper and Lithium become the strategic metals for the ongoing green revolution. Solar and Wind Energy and Electric Cars will drive the new demand for these metals. Solar Energy is growing very fast all over the world now. Energy Storage will be the next step to ignite this growth. This is the new focus of Elon Musk and his Gigafactory. He will introduce the home storage system based on the lithium batteries in the next few months. Copper will have its special place in this mass scale roll out of distributed energy generation systems with Wind and Solar Power. Integral part of this system - Energy Storage is getting popular now with Elon Musk Gigafactory and Warren Buffet with BYD making the headlines.

TNR Gold Corp. Comments on Recent News by McEwen Mining on the Los Azules Copper Project, Argentina.



Kirill Klip.:


TNR Gold Corp. Comments on Recent News by McEwen Mining on the Los Azules Copper Project, Argentina.



Copper M&A in Latin America, TNR Gold And McEwen Mining With Los Azules Copper.


 "We have the great news from McEwen Mining, you can Google for the whole news release. Before the value for Los Azules was based on the acquisition price paid by US Gold for Minera Andes. After the collapse in Gold prices and Argentina troubled couple of years this accounting value has became the wishful history. Now based on the valuations of Taca Taca in First Quantum Minerals takeover of Lumina Copper McEwen Mining will make the conservative accounting valuation of Los Azules. Normally the selling price for the assets is above such an assessment. You will have to make your own numbers or contact Jim Mustard at PI Financial, who is acting on behalf of TNR Gold. Read more."

TNR GOLD CORP. COMMENTS ON RECENT NEWS BY MCEWEN MINING ON THE LOS AZULES COPPER PROJECT, ARGENTINA


Vancouver, B.C. August 13, 2014, TNR Gold Corp. (the "Company" or “TNR) (TSX VENTURE: TNR.V) advises that McEwen Mining Inc. (NYSE:MUX, TSX:MUX) ("McEwen Mining") has issued news releases dated 17 July, 2014 and 07 August, 2014 in relation to the Los Azules Copper Project in San Juan Province, Argentina. TNR holds a 25% back-in right, exercisable upon the completion of a feasibility study, on the northern part of the Los Azules property.
The news releases issued by McEwen Mining summarize the results of an impairment test conducted on Los Azules as a result of the recently announced acquisition of Lumina Copper Corp. by First Quantum Minerals Ltd. to gain ownership of the Taca Taca copper project in Salta, Argentina. McEwen Mining recognized that the similarities between Los Azules and Taca Taca in terms of project scale and location within Argentina gave sufficient cause for the impairment analysis that resulted in McEwen Mining recording an impairment charge for Los Azules in its second quarter.
The Company is of the view that the impairment recorded by McEwen Mining on Los Azules does not have an adverse affect on the Company's valuation of its back-in right in the Los Azules deposit and the ongoing evaluation of the sale of its rights to the deposit (see TNR news release May 8, 2013).
In their press release dated 17 July 2014 Rob McEwen states, "With First Quantum acquiring Lumina Copper and their Taca Taca project, Los Azules moves to the forefront in terms of world-class, undeveloped, high-grade copper assets not owned by a major mining company. As we have said in the past, Taca Taca serves as a good proxy for the value of Los Azules and we believe this transaction demonstrates value in projects located in Argentina."  The news release is available at SEDARhttp://www.sedar.com and on the McEwen Mining website http://www.mcewenmining.com.  TNR encourages its shareholders to read the press releases issued by McEwen Mining to gain a better understanding of the work performed and the potential impacts this will have on the project.
McEwen Mining's press releases appear to be prepared by Qualified Persons and the procedures, methodology and key assumptions disclosed therein are those adopted and consistently applied in the mining industry, but no Qualified Person engaged by TNR Gold Corp. has done sufficient work to analyze, interpret, classify or verify McEwen Mining's information to determine the current mineral reserve or resource or other information referred to in the press release. Accordingly, the reader is cautioned in placing any reliance on the disclosures therein.
“Los Azules is a unique, long-life, copper mining opportunity in Argentina. Recent acquisitions that include the Las Bambas copper mining project in Peru acquired by Minmetals Group from China and the Taca Taca copper deposit in Argentina acquired by First Quantum Minerals confirm there is significant value to be realized for projects in this region. We are pleased that large-scale, capital intensive projects like Los Azules are attracting attention from global mining companies, increasing our ability to monetize our portion of the asset. In our opinion, McEwen Mining's latest analysis provides a solid base value for the asset,” commented Mr. Kirill Klip, Non-Executive Chairman of TNR.
The Company has a 25% back-in right in the Northern Portion of the Los Azules property which is exercisable following the completion of a feasibility study.  If the Company elects to back-in for 5% or less or has its interest diluted to 5% or less, TNR will receive a net smelter royalty of 0.6% from the Northern Portion. 
The Los Azules copper deposit is located in the San Juan province of Argentina. McEwen Mining Inc. is the current operator on the Los Azules copper deposit and the Company has previously advised that on May 15, March 28, and March 13, 2013, McEwen Mining Inc. issued press releases in relation to the deposit, which are accessible on Sedar at http://www.sedar.com and on McEwen Mining Inc’s website athttp://mcewenmining.com.

TNR Gold Acquires Critical Element REE Project in Labrador. $TNR.v $ILC.v $MCP $REE $AAPL $TSLA

TNR Gold Acquires Critical Element REE Project in Labrador.


2014 Report On the International Rare Earth Metals Market - Forecast to 2018




  At TNR Gold we are involved not only in Lithium with our stake in International Lithium, but also in REE projects development. We are following closely the changing landscape and identifying new opportunities in this very important market of Strategic Critical Materials. Their applications are spread from Electric Motors to Solar and Wind Power generation and to the Displays of your Mobile Devices.







Vancouver, B.C. / TNW-ACCESSWIRE / August 11, 2014 / TNR Gold Corp. (the "Company" or "TNR) (TSX VENTURE:TNR.V ) has acquired through staking mineral exploration rights totalling 2,050 hectares within the Flowers River Igneous Suite located in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. The project area is approximately 25 kilometres from tidewater and 50 kilometres west of the community of Hopedale, Labrador.
TNR Gold, through its "lead generator business model", identified the Nuiklavik project as highly prospective for rare earth elements ("REEs"). TNR successfully applied the project generator strategy most recently in 2010/2011 when the Company identified theMariana lithium brine and Blackstairs lithium pegmatite projects, that became key to International Lithium Corp. (TSX VENTURE:ILC.V), a Lithium metals focused company spun out of TNR and currently partnered with a prominent lithium products producer, Ganfeng Lithium International Ltd., Co., based in China.
The Nuiklavik project area was briefly examined in the 1950s by Brinex, but saw no further exploration until Altius Resources Inc. ("Altius") targeting volcanic hosted uranium-type mineralization from 2006 to 2008. Altius sampled several rare earth occurrences, complementing earlier mapping and sampling work by the Geological Survey of Newfoundland and Labrador ("GSNL") in the 1980s and 1990s. All samples reported to date are grab samples and have returned assays of up to 1.4% zirconium oxide, 1.27% yttrium oxide, 1.15% niobium oxide and 1.1% total rare earth oxides with heavy REEs accounting for up to 67% of the total rare earths (Rare Elements Resources press release dated January 7, 2010). Grab samples are by nature selective and therefore may not be representative of mineralization on the property. Altius sold the project to Rare Element Resources Ltd. ("RER") in 2010. In 2012 RER made a decision to no longer maintain the mineral claims in favour of focusing on the exploration and development of their Bear Lodge REE Project.
"The Nuiklavik project is the next step in TNR's strategy to identify and generate projects of high value ahead of the curve. Several countries around the world have conducted research and identified potential future supply constraints of certain metals, naming them "critical metals". These are elements that are deemed essential to manufacturing industries in these countries. TNR is focussed on generating projects hosting critical elements needed for certain high tech and renewable energy industries. These elements are usually produced as by-products from other mining and industrial activities. A number of the rare earth elements which includes both heavy and light rare earths, are on the "critical" list. The supply chain from China is expected to decrease over the next few years and many REE sources outside China are dominated by the non-critical REEs. TNR has also recognized that many of the advanced stage REE exploration projects face significant cost challenges specifically related to infrastructure (as projects tend to be quite remote) and metallurgy (extracting individual rare earth oxides). TNR's team believes the geology and geochemistry of the Nuiklavik volcanics indicate the potential to host mineralization that is enriched in critical elements. The Property location, only 25 kilometres from tidewater, potentially gives it an infrastructure advantage. As done with International Lithium Corp., TNR is seeking a strategic partner with the technical expertise and end-use demand to facilitate the advancement and if warranted, the development of the project." Mr. Kirill Klip, Non-Executive Chairman of TNR.
