Gold Terra Resource Corp: Gold Terra Announces a 2 Year Extension on Option Agreement with Newmont to November 21st, 2027 to purchase 100% of Past Producing 16 g/t Gold Con Mine, Yellowknife, NWT

Finanznachrichten News

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / September 9, 2024 / Gold Terra Resource Corp. (TSX-V:YGT)(Frankfurt:TX0)(OTCQX:YGTFF) ("Gold Terra" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has extended its four (4) year definitive option agreement (the "Option Agreement") with Newmont Canada FN Holdings ULC ("Newmont FN") and Miramar Northern Mining Ltd. ("MNML"), both wholly owned subsidiaries of Newmont Corporation ("Newmont"), to a six (6) year agreement which grants Gold Terra the option, upon meeting certain minimum requirements, to purchase MNML from Newmont FN (the "Transaction"), which includes 100% of all the assets, mineral leases, Crown mineral claims, and surface rights comprising the Con Mine, as well as the areas immediately adjacent to the Con Mine, as shown in Exhibit A (the "Con Mine Property").

Gerald Panneton, Chairman & CEO of Gold Terra, commented, "We are pleased with our continued excellent relationship with Newmont who is also a shareholder of the Company. The extension of the Option Agreement to acquire 100% of MNML's Con Mine allows us to continue with our current drilling program designed to delineate more than 1.5 Moz in all categories with high-grade ounces along the prolific Campbell Shear structure below and around the existing mine workings. Our accomplishments to date include:

  1. Contained Indicated 109,000 ounces @ 7.55 g/t Au and Inferred 432,000 ounces @ 6.74 g/t Au near surface south of the Con Mine in the Yellorex area. (refer to Gold Terra Oct 21, 2022, Technical Report).

  2. Total drilling of 31,947 metres to the end of 2023.

  3. Total spending of approximately C$10.9 million to the end of 2023

  4. Current 2024 drilling of more than 3,000 metres testing the down plunge of the Campbell shear.

The extended Option Agreement to six (6) years provides the Company more time to complete its evaluation before exercising its option to purchase 100% of MNML, the owner of the past-producing Con Mine, which produced more than 6.1 Moz (averaging 16 to 20 g/t Au) along the Campbell and Con Shear structures. Completion of the Option Agreement will consolidate the Company's strategic land position in the prolific Yellowknife Gold Belt (shown in Figure 1 below) and provide potential future development optionality. The former Con Mine is a world-class gold deposit and part of the prolific Yellowknife mining camp. (refer to Gold Terra Oct 21, 2022, Technical Report).

Figure 1: Con Mine Option Location

Option Agreement Highlights:

  • Execution of the 2021 Option Agreement to include all (100%) of MNML and the Con Mine Property (November 22, 2021 press release).

  • The Option Agreement has now been extended whereby in order to retain the Earn-In Right and earn the Purchase Option, Gold Terra must, within six (6) years following the Effective Date complete the Earn-In specifications.

  • Gold Terra has agreed to incur a minimum of C$8.0 million in exploration expenditures over a period of six (6) years, which will include all exploration expenditures incurred to date under the initial Exploration Agreement.

  • Gold Terra has also agreed to:

    • Complete a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) of a mineral resource and a minimum of 1.5 Moz in all categories,

    • Obtain all necessary regulatory approvals for the purchase and transfer of MNML's assets and liabilities to Gold Terra,

    • Post a cash bond to reflect the status of the Con Mine reclamation plan at the time of closing.

The closing of the Transaction will then be completed with Gold Terra making a final cash payment of C$8,000,000.

Newmont will retain a 2% net smelter returns royalty (the "NSR") on minerals produced from the Con Mine Property. The NSR may be reduced by 50% by the Company paying Newmont the sum of C$10,000,000, for a period of two (2) years following the annoucement of commercial production.

After Gold Terra exercises its option, Newmont will have a period of two (2) years to exercise its one time back-in right of a 51% participating interest in MNML and the Con Mine Property, which can be triggered by Gold Terra delineating a minimum of five (5) million ounces of gold in the measured and indicated mineral resource categories supported by a National Instrument NI 43-101 technical report. If Newmont exercise its one time only back-in right, it will have to reimburse Gold Terra 3 times its exploration expenditure to that date, and also pay US$ 30 per once on 51% of all the ounces delineated in the latest 43-101 report

Substantial Benefits To UNLOCK

Upon exercise of the option, Gold Terra would have substantial benefit from owning 100% of the Con Mine Property including:

  • Mineral leases and overlying surface rights.

  • Access to infrastructure, including underground openings and shafts, buildings, storage facilities and roads. The hard assets include the original C -1 shaft opening, and the deep Robertson shaft (1,950 metres) with a 2,000 tpd (ton per day) capacity for future underground exploration and mining, valued for time and investment saving; surface infrastructure including a large 10,000 square foot warehouse and dry; surface vehicles; and a 2015 C$20 M water treatment plant . These assets provide substantial future cost savings for potential development.

  • Access to explore and potentially redevelop the remaining historic mineral reserves within the Con Mine Property. The Con Mine was shut down in 2003 following multiple years of low gold prices. Historically, a total of 6.1 Moz of high-grade gold were recovered from the underground Con Mine operation. Remaining historic sub-economic reserves based on a US$370/oz gold price at the Con Mine as of January 1, 2003, are shown in the following table:

Table 1: Historic Reserves as of January 1, 2003* (Source: Miramar Mining Corp Limited 2003)

*Note: The Historic Reserves and Resources quoted above are historical in nature and are not NI 43-101 compliant. They were compiled and reported by MNML during its operation and closure of the Con Mine (2003). The historical estimates are historical in nature and should not be relied upon, however, they do give indications of mineralization on the property. The Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify them as current Mineral Resources or Mineral Reserves and Gold Terra is not treating the historical estimates as current Mineral Resources or Mineral Reserves. (See Oct. 21, 2022 Technical Report)

Con Mine Option Property Deep Drilling Program

The objective of the upcoming Phase 2 drilling program is to continue testing for high-grade gold in the Campbell Shear (past production of 5.1 Moz @ 16 g/t, refer to the Oct. 21, 2022 Technical Report) on the Con Mine below the historic Con Mine underground workingsfrom the recently completed master hole GTCM24-056. Hole GTCM24-056 was drilled to a depth of 3,002 metres and will serve as a master hole from which to branch off with as many wedges as possible to evaluate the Campbell Shear in a first phase of wedge drilling from 600 metres to 700 metres below the current Robertson shaft depth, up-dip and laterally. The branching-off wedge drilling strategy from the same master hole will allow for the evaluation of the Campbell Shear with shorter and lower cost holes.

The 2024 deep drilling program aims to expand the September 2022 initial Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") (see September 7, 2022, press release) of 109,000 Indicated ounces of contained gold and 432,000 Inferred ounces of contained gold between surface and 400 metres below surface along a 2-kilometre corridor of the Campbell Shear (October 21, 2022 MRE titled "Initial Mineral Resource Estimate for the CMO Property, Yellowknife City Gold Project, Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada") by Qualified Person, Allan Armitage, Ph. D., P. Geo., SGS Geological Services, which can be found on the Company's website athttps://www.goldterracorp.comand on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

The technical information contained in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Joseph Campbell, Chief Operating Officer, a Qualified Person as defined in National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.

About Gold Terra

The Yellowknife Project (YP) encompasses 918 sq. km of contiguous land immediately north, south and east of the City of Yellowknife in the Northwest Territories. Through a series of acquisitions, Gold Terra controls one of the six major high-grade gold camps in Canada. Being within 10 kilometres of the City of Yellowknife, the YP is close to vital infrastructure, including all-season roads, air transportation, service providers, hydro-electric power, and skilled tradespeople. Gold Terra is currently focusing its drilling on the prolific Campbell Shear, where approximately 14 Moz of gold has been produced, (refer to Gold Terra Oct 21, 2022, Technical Report) and most recently on the Con Mine Option (CMO) property claims immediately south of the past producing Con Mine which produced 6.1 Moz between the Con, Rycon, and Campbell shear structures (1938-2003).

The YP and CMO properties lie on the prolific Yellowknife greenstone belt, covering nearly 70 kilometres of strike length along the main mineralized shear system that hosts the former-producing high-grade Con and Giant gold mines. The Company's exploration programs have successfully identified significant zones of gold mineralization and multiple targets that remain to be tested which reinforces the Company's objective of re-establishing Yellowknife as one of the premier gold mining districts in Canada.

Information Concerning Estimates of Mineral Resources

Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Therefore, investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an Inferred Mineral Resource could ever be mined economically. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of "Measured Mineral Resources," "Indicated Mineral Resources," or "Inferred Mineral Resources" will ever be upgraded to a higher category. The Mineral Resource estimates contained herein may be subject to legal, political, environmental or other risks that could materially affect the potential development of such mineral resources. Refer to the Technical Report, once filed, for more information with respect to the key assumptions, parameters, methods and risks of determination associated with the foregoing.

Cautionary Note to United States Investors

The Company prepares its disclosure in accordance with the requirements of securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of U.S. securities laws. Terms relating to Mineral Resources in this news release are defined in accordance with NI 43-101 under the guidelines set out in CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Council on May 19, 2014, as amended ("CIM Standards"). The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") has adopted amendments effective February 25, 2019 (the "SEC Modernization Rules") to its disclosure rules to modernize the mineral property disclosure requirements for issuers whose securities are registered with the SEC under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As a result of the adoption of the SEC Modernization Rules, the SEC will now recognize estimates of "Measured Mineral Resources", "Indicated Mineral Resources" and "Inferred Mineral Resources", which are defined in substantially similar terms to the corresponding CIM Standards. In addition, the SEC has amended its definitions of "Proven Mineral Reserves" and "Probable Mineral Reserves" to be substantially similar to the corresponding CIM Standards.

U.S. investors are cautioned that while the foregoing terms are "substantially similar" to corresponding definitions under the CIM Standards, there are differences in the definitions under the SEC Modernization Rules and the CIM Standards. Accordingly, there is no assurance any Mineral Resources that the Company may report as "Measured Mineral Resources", "Indicated Mineral Resources" and "Inferred Mineral Resources" under NI 43-101 would be the same had the Company prepared the Mineral Resource estimates under the standards adopted under the SEC Modernization Rules. In accordance with Canadian securities laws, estimates of "Inferred Mineral Resources" cannot form the basis of feasibility or other economic studies, except in limited circumstances where permitted under NI 43-101.
