Redhill Signs Memorandum of Understanding with Petrel Robertson
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Sep 25, 2014) - Redhill Resources Corp., (TSX VENTURE:RHR), ("Redhill" or the "Company") hereby announces that it has entered into a memorandum of understanding ("MOU") with Petrel Robertson Consulting Ltd. ("Petrel") regarding the purchase of a Petrel prospect ("Chinook"). Under the terms of the MOU, Petrel will assign the intellectual property, all rights, and all geophysical/geological work associated with the Chinook prospect to Redhill. Petrel has agreed to assist Redhill in any future marketing of the Chinook prospect and Redhill has agreed to retain Petrel over the next three years on a consulting basis.
In consideration for Chinook, Redhill has agreed to pay Petrel $100,000 and grant Petrel 100,000 stock options upon signing of a definitive agreement formalizing the terms of the MOU. An additional 300,000 common shares of Redhill will be issued to Petrel conditional upon certain land acquisition thresholds. The above terms are subject to review and approval by the TSX Venture Exchange.
Petrel is a leading geoscience consulting firm based out of Calgary with 13 full-time professional staff and a vast network of associates in industry. Petrel consults to some of North America's largest independent producers. Petrel also creates in-house multi-client studies and generates prospects for sale. Previous companies that benefitted from some of these internally generated prospects include Osum Oil Sands, Laricina Energy, First Calgary Petroleum and Central European Petroleum.
Redhill will not be disclosing further information regarding Chinook until it has acquired the requisite land position as defined in the MOU or has given notice to Petrel that it will cancel further land acquisition work.
The company would also like to report the granting, subject to regulatory acceptance, of 175,000 incentive stock options to certain officers, directors, consultants and employees of the company. The options have a term of five years and are exercisable at a price of 50 cents per common share.
