Winnipeg, Manitoba--(Newsfile Corp. - February 24, 2025) - Gossan Resources Limited (TSXV: GSS) (FSE: GSR) (XETRA: GSR) (the "Company" or "Gossan") is pleased to announce that it has completed the previously announced sale of its Bird River Property to Grid Metals Corp. (see Company Press Release dated April 13, 2023).
Under the terms of the agreement between the two companies, the total consideration payable to Gossan for the Bird River Claims was as follows:
(a) $500,000 cash payment on Closing of the Option;
(b) 1,500,000 Shares of Grid on Closing of the Option;
(c) $300,000 cash payment on the first anniversary date from Closing;
(d) $300,000 cash payment on the second anniversary date from Closing;
(e) the NSR; and
(f) A $300,000 Deferred Cash Payment upon the occurrence of the Deferred Payment Event.
Upon the completion of points (a) to (e), Gossan would transfer the title to the Bird River Claims to Grid Metals Corp. As of February 2025, points (a) to (e) have been completed, and the Company has legally transferred title of the claims to Grid Metals Corp.
As previously disclosed, Gossan retains a royalty on the claims, which is defined as a 2% net smelter returns royalty on minerals produced from the Bird River Claims based on the terms and conditions set out in the NSR Agreement.
Further to the royalty, Gossan is also entitled to a Deferred Payment Event, which is payable at the commencement of commercial production on the Bird River Claims, as more clearly defined on the original agreement.
Samuel Pelaez, President & CEO stated: "The sale of the Bird River Claims to Grid consolidated the Bird River Greenstone Belt under a sole ownership. With a single database and the projected synergies of a belt-wide opportunity, Grid was able to attract interest from Teck Resources to explore and develop the Mawka nickel project, which now includes the Bird River Claims. Gossan's shareholders now hold a royalty on a large portion of the highly prospective magmatic nickel-copper-PGM-cobalt discovery at Makwa, which now stands to receive significant investment and development from Teck."
