Terreno Options 100% of the Las Cucharas Gold and Silver Project
TORONTO, CANADA - TheNewswire - March 25, 2021 - Terreno Resources Corp. (TSXV:TNO.H) (“Terreno” or the “Company”) is extremely pleased to announce that, subject to regulatory approval, it has successfully negotiated an amendment to the January 20, 2018 Property Option Agreement for the Las Cucharas Gold and Silver Project (“the Property”) in Nayarit, Mexico.
As at December 31, 2020, the Company had met the $700,000 of exploration expenditures required to be completed by October 31, 2021 under the option to earn a 60% interest in the Property. Completing our required expenditures ten (10) months ahead of schedule was well received by the private Ontario corporation that optioned the Property to Terreno.
The Company may now earn 70% (an additional 10%) in exchange for 5,000,000 common shares due twelve (12) months from the date of transfer of title for the mineral concessions.
The Company may then earn 80% (another 10%) in exchange for 5,000,000 common shares due twenty-four (24) months from the date of transfer of title for the mineral concessions.
A further increase to 90% (an additional 10%) may then be earned in exchange for 5,000,000 common shares due thirty-six (36) months from the date of transfer of the mineral concessions.
A final increase to 100% (a final additional 10%) may be earned in exchange for 5,000,000 common shares due forty-eight (48) months from the date of transfer of the mineral concessions.
All shares issued under the amendment are to be held for investment purposes and therefore will not create a new control position. The private Ontario corporation receiving the shares is aware that it will become a deemed insider if at any time it holds 10% or more of the shares of Terreno.
In accordance with the original property option agreement, the transfer of the sixty (60%) interest in the Property is scheduled to be completed by October 31, 2021.
There are no additional exploration expenditure requirements under the Property Option Agreement Amendment.
Mr. George A. Brown, CEO, states “The recent high sampling results (see March 11, 2021 news release) indicated to management that the value of the Las Cucharas Gold and Silver Project can be expected to increase in value as we continue exploration. We felt that the Company would benefit in the long term by locking down the price now to be able to obtain 100% ownership.”
