06.11.2012  |  Marketwire

OTTAWA, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 11/06/12 -- Everton Resources Inc. ("Everton")(TSX VENTURE: EVR)(OTCQX: EVRRF)(FRANKFURT: EVR) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an option letter agreement (the "Agreement") with Viking Gold Exploration Inc. ("Viking Gold")(TSX-V: VGC), a junior exploration company with properties in Ontario, Quebec and the Northwest Territories, whereby Viking Gold can acquire up to a 60% undivided interest in certain mining concessions (the "Jobo Claro Concessions" and the "Maimon Concessions", each a "Concession Group") located in the Dominican Republic.


Andre Audet, Chairman and CEO of Everton said, "these earn-in agreements will help Everton advance these under explored concessions. With $3 Million in exploration commitments over 3 years, Everton can greatly benefit from potential new discoveries."


The Jobo Claro Concessions comprise a 53 sq. km area situated adjacent to the recently opened Pueblo Viejo mine in the Dominican Republic. Pueblo Viejo is owned 60% by Barrick Gold Corporation and 40% by Goldcorp Inc., and Barrick, the mine operator, reports that as at December 31, 2011, the underlying property had proven and probable gold reserves of 25.3 million ounces (100% basis).


The Maimon Concessions (three polymetallic concessions) comprise a 24 sq. km area situated near the Cerro de Maimon volcanongenic massive sulphide deposit, which was discovered by Globestar Mining and subsequently acquired by Perilya (Australia) in its $184-million acquisition of Globestar in late 2011.


The two Concession Groups are currently owned 100% by Everton.


Viking Gold's payment commitment to Everton under the Agreement are as follows:



-- Pay $50,000 cash and issue 3,000,000 common shares on closing;
-- Pay $50,000 cash and issue 2,000,000 common shares on or before the
first anniversary; and
-- Pay $50,000 cash and issue 2,000,000 common shares on or before the
second anniversary.


In addition, Viking Gold's exploration expenditure commitments under the Agreement are as follows:



-- Incur exploration expenditures of $500,000 prior to the first
anniversary;
-- Incur additional exploration expenditures of $1,000,000 prior to the
second anniversary; and
-- Incur additional exploration expenditures of $1,500,000 prior to the
third anniversary.


The Agreement allocates the payment and expenditure commitments above as being 90% for the Jobo Claro Concessions and 10% for the Maimon Concessions. Viking Gold may earn a 50% undivided interest in a Concession Group upon satisfying the related allocated commitments. Viking Gold may earn an additional 10% interest in a Concession Group by completing a feasibility study within five years of giving notice to Everton of completing the related 50% earn-in.


The Parties will execute a Definitive Agreement after the completion of the necessary due diligence, as outlined in the Agreement. The Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein are subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
