VANCOUVER, Sept. 11, 2019 - Almadex Minerals Ltd. ("Almadex" or the "Company") (TSX-V: “DEX”) is pleased to announce that it has optioned 60% of its Ponderosa project (the “Project”) to 1201361 BC LTD. (“Optionee”), a private B.C. company at arms-length to Almadex.
Under the terms of the agreement, Optionee can acquire a 60% interest in the Project by:
- Issuing Almadex 5% of its issued capital on a fully diluted basis on closing, with a top-up to this amount at the time of a “liquidity event”;
- Completing $500,000 in work, including 500 metres of drilling, on the Project within three years, and;
- Completing a “liquidity event” within four years.
Amongst other things, a “liquidity event” is some form of transaction which results in the Optionee’s, or its affiliates’, common shares becoming publicly traded on a recognized stock exchange.
Upon completion of the 60% earn-in, Almadex and the Optionee have agreed to immediately form a 40/60 joint venture for the purpose of carrying out further exploration work on the Project with Optionee as operator and straight line dilution for failure to participate in work programs. If either party’s participating interest falls below 10%, their interest will be converted into a 2% net smelter returns royalty.
Almadex, its predecessors and partners have worked in the Spences Bridge area since about 2002. J. Duane Poliquin, Chairman of Almadex, stated, “We have now optioned all of our Spences Bridge property holdings to partners, and look forward to active exploration on our properties over the coming years”.
