Talisker Resources (TSK-Cse) Enters into Agreements Further Increasing Spences Bridge Gold Belt Land Position
June 18, '19 - NR
Talisker Resources is pleased to announce that the Company has entered into three agreements further expanding its land position in the Spences Bridge Gold Belt. These agreements, with separate arm’s length vendors, are for strategic mineral claims covering known low-sulphidation epithermal vein occurrences.
Terry Harbort, President & CEO of Talisker commented, "The continued consolidation of third party claims within the Spences Bridge Gold Belt solidifies our position as a dominant player in this emerging gold district. Acquiring these mineral claims with outcropping vein occurrences allows Talisker the opportunity to focus our systematic exploration potentially shortening the timeline to discovery."
The Blustery Mountain Project purchase agreements encompass four mineral claims totaling 471.5 hectares in exchange for cash payments of $30,000, the issuance of 220,000 common shares of Talisker and in the case of three of the minerals claims, a 1% Net Smelter Royalty (NSR). Talisker has the right to purchase 50% of the NSR for $500,000.
The Dora-Merritt Property option agreement encompasses six mineral claims totaling 374.05 hectares and provides the Company with an option to acquire 100% of the Dora-Merritt Property mineral claims. Under the term of the option agreement, Talisker has committed to pay $10,000 in cash on acceptance by the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “Exchange”), $10,000 in cash and 50,000 common shares of Talisker on May 31, 2020 and May 31, 2021, $20,000 in cash and 50,000 common shares of Talisker on May 31, 2022, $50,000 cash and 150,000 common shares of Talisker on May 31, 2023 and to spend a minimum of $50,000 per year over five years. The option agreement is also subject to a share bonus of one common share per ounce of gold equivalent in the inferred or greater category to a maximum of 250,000 common shares and a 2% NSR. Talisker has the right to purchase 50% of the NSR for $1,000,000.
The acquisitions are subject to the approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”).
In other news, Talisker announces that it has granted an aggregate of 3,400,000 options to purchase common shares of the Company exercisable at a price of $0.20 per share for a period of five years, to directors, officers and consultants of the Company.
