Constantine Metal Resources (CEM-V) Jan 19, '17 is pleased to announce it has completed the sale of mineral claims to Lake Shore Gold Corp, a wholly owned subsidiary of Tahoe Resources Inc. (see News Release dated November 7, 2016). Constantine has received CDN $4.5 million cash and a 100% interest in the Munro claim that is contiguous to Constantine’s Munro-Croesus claims.
The mineral claims that have been sold, known as the Horseshoe, Four Corners and the Meunier Add-on claims, are located adjacent to Lake Shore’s Fenn-Gib gold project in Ontario. They do not include Constantine’s neighboring Munro Croesus Gold Property that is renowned for its exceptionally high-grade past production, or the Golden Mile Property, which collectively represent a rare opportunity to control an extensive, high potential land position in the prolific Timmins gold camp. Constantine has retained a 1% Net Smelter Return Royalty (“NSR”) on the Horseshoe claims, which are located a few hundred meters west-northwest of the Fenn-Gib gold resource. Constantine also retain the rights to NSR buy-down provisions associated with the underlying property agreements on all of the properties sold to Lake Shore.
