GLS and AMS JV.
Mr Doppler also reports The company has entered into an agreement with GLS Global Assets Ltd whereby GLS can acquire a 51% interest in the company's Hydra-Hercules gold project in the Como mining district, Lyons County, Nevada. The project, at the northern end of the Walker Lane Trend, hosts epithermal gold and silver mineralization within two separate northerly trending structures. Since 1984, over US$2 million worth of exploration work (including over 34,000 ft of core and RCV drilling) has been undertaken by prior optionees, including Asamera, Horizon Gold, St Joe Minerals and Phelps Dodge. A geological resource amenable to open pit mining methods has been estimated at between 170,000 and 213,000 oz gold with over 1.5 million oz silver. The host structures, each approximately 9,000 ft in length, remain open along strike and down dip. Potential for the project to host a million plus oz gold deposit is excellent. GLS will have until December 31 1997 to complete a due diligence evaluation of the project. Concurrent with and complementing GLS' evaluation program, the company will be conducting its own exploration work on the project, budgeted at $25,000 to $50,000 and focusing on the numerous as yet untested gold anomalies and geophysical targets previously identified on the project grounds. Upon favourable results, GLS can elect to exercise its option and enter into a working interest joint venture by paying US$40,000 by March 1998 making advance annual royalty payments of US$60,000 and US$70,000 in the first and second years of the joint venture, respectively, and be expending a minimum of US$200,000 on exploration during the first two years, GLS will also be responsible for paying all BLM fees and local taxes. The project is subject to a 5% nsr (capped at US$4.5 million) payable to the underlying owners. Should GLS and the company enter into a formal joint venture agreement, a finder's fee would be payable to Gold Ridge Investment Corp in regards to the GLS transactions.
