Vancouver, British Columbia – TheNewswire - December 23, 2022 - Northern Lights Resources Corp. (“Northern Lights” or the “Company”) (CSE:NLR), (OTC:NLRCF) is pleased to announce that it has completed the sale of its 25% interest in the Medicine Springs Project Option Agreement to Reyna Silver Corp. (TSX.V RSLV) under the terms announced by the Company on December 15, 2022 (the “Transaction”).

 

Highlights

 

The total value of the consideration paid to NLR for its 25% option interest in the Medicine Springs Project is approximately $2.3 million plus the value of the future NSR royalty interest.

 

Consideration received by NLR from Reyna Silver consists of:

 

• US$100,000 Cash Payment

        (as at Dec 22, 2022 - share price $0.365, total market value $2.19 million)
