Pacific Coast to Acquire the Burwash Property Next to Prophecy's Wellgreen
Pursuant to the Agreement, Pacific Coast will issue to Strategic Metals, common shares of Pacific Coast valued at $1,000,000 based upon the average 10 day trading price of Pacific Coast's shares immediately prior to the closing of the Agreement. The Agreement also allows Strategic the right to participate pro rata in any future Pacific Coast financings for a period of 5 years from the closing date.
This Agreement replaces the Burwash option agreement dated March 8, 2010 between Pacific Coast and Strategic and is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval.
John Lee, Chairman and Interim CEO of Pacific Coast commented today that: "With the Burwash acquisition and the proposed acquisition of the adjacent Wellgreen property from Prophecy Resource Corp., Pacific Coast will soon control the 20-km-long Quil Creek Triassic ultramafic Complex within the Kluane Mafic-Ultramafic Belt, 2nd largest known in Canada after the Thompson's Nickel Belt."
Pacific Coast currently has over $1.2 million cash on hand.
