GOLDCORP’S
LOS FILOS MINE
VANCOUVER,
BRITISH COLUMBIA, April 4, 2007 - GOLDCORP INC.
announced today that it has completed the previously announced
sale of its
Amapari mine in Brazil to Peak Gold Ltd. for 155,000,000
Peak Gold common
shares, representing approximately 22% of the outstanding
shares of Peak Gold.
Goldcorp does not have any present intention to acquire ownership
of, or control
over, additional securities of Peak Gold. It
is the
intention of Goldcorp to evaluate its investment in Peak
Gold on a continuing
basis and such holdings may be increased or decreased in
the
future.
The
previously announced sale of Goldcorp’s Peak mine in Australia for $200,000,000
in cash is anticipated to take place following receipt of
approval from the
Foreign Investment Review Board in Australia. The purchase
price for the Peak
mine is being held in escrow pending completion of the sale.
It is expected that
such approval will be obtained within 30 days.
Goldcorp
is also pleased to report construction at its Los Filos mine
in Guerrero, Mexico
has resumed after a road block was lifted that was obstructing
the mine's main
access road.
The
roadblock had been carried out by certain communities and
landowner groups
requesting renegotiation of existing land purchase and rental
agreements. A new
agreement is in place, and the Company is re-mobilizing construction
contractors
and the work force in charge of commissioning the mine. The
Company expects the
first production of gold from Los Filos during the second
quarter of
2007.
Goldcorp
is one of the world’s lowest-cost and fastest growing multi-million ounce gold
producers with operations throughout the Americas.
Cautionary
Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This
press release contains “forward-looking statements”, within the meaning of the
United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995 and applicable
Canadian securities legislation, concerning the business,
operations and
financial performance and condition of Goldcorp. Forward-looking
statements
include, but are not limited to, statements with respect
to receiving approval
from the Foreign Investment Review Board in Australia for
the sale of the Peak
mine. Generally, these forward-looking statements can be
identified by the use
of forward-looking terminology such as “plans”, “expects” or “does not expect”,
“is expected”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”,
“anticipates” or “does not anticipate”, or “believes”, or variations of such
words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or
results “may”,
“could”, “would”, “might” or “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved”.
Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown
risks, uncertainties
and other factors that may cause the actual results, level
of activity,
performance or achievements of Goldcorp to be materially
different from those
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements,
such as those factors
discussed in the section entitled “Description of the Business - Risk Factors”
in Goldcorp’s Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31,
2006,
available on www.sedar.com, and Form 40-F for the year ended
December 31, 2006
on file with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission
in Washington,
D.C. Although Goldcorp has attempted to identify important
factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those contained
in
forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that
cause results not to
be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no
assurance that such
statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and
future events could
differ materially from those anticipated in such statements.
Accordingly,
readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking
statements. Goldcorp
does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements
that are
incorporated by reference herein, except in accordance with
applicable
securities laws.
