Gold Sales from Alluvial Production on the Banso and Muoso Mining Leases
The Corporation understands that Xtra-Gold Corp. ("Xtra") has recently sold the first batch of alluvial gold recovered from Xtra's Banso and Muoso Mining Leases in Ghana. The Banso and Muoso Mining Leases are subject to a Joint Venture with Buccaneer and the Corporation previously purchased a 55% up-front interest in the alluvial proceeds from Xtra for US$50,000 as part of an Agreement in which the Corporation has the right to earn a 55% interest in those Mining Leases.
The Corporation requested that Xtra provide it with an accounting of the gold production and sales by June 30, 2015. Xtra has not responded and the Corporation will be following up on that request shortly.
