Metals Creek Resources Provides Update on Blackflake West Project
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Oct 14, 2014) - Metals Creek Resources (TSX VENTURE:MEK) has been advised by its' option joint venture partner Xmet Inc. ("Xmet" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:XME) that it has staked and acquired a 100% interest in 10 claim units on the northern boundary of the Blackflake West property. These claims appear to host a northern extension of Blackflake West's 'All Channel' Electromagnetic graphite target originally discovered by Metals Creek Resources (see MEK News Release dated 26th of March 2014).
Upon reviewing the data received from the recently flown VTEM survey announced September 29, 2014, the Blackflake West's All Channel Electromagnetic graphite target appears to have a northern extension prompting XMET to acquire through staking 10 additional claim units on the north edge of this anomaly. Management with MEK is highly encouraged by the size and strength of the Blackflake West All Channel conductive response and look forward to the initiation of the ground geophysical Induced Polarization (IP) survey to help further define the nature and orientation of this conductive response. Results from this IP survey which is scheduled to begin shortly, will also aide in determining the preferred orientation in which to drill this exciting new target.
As per the original agreement dated 22 May 2014 Between Xmet and Metals Creek, MEK has sixty days to determine whether it wants to acquire a 50% interest in the newly staked claims for reimbursement to XMET of 50% of the acquisition cost.
Xmet Inc. has the option to earn a 50% interest (see news release May 22, 2014) in the Blackflake West (Feagan Lake) Graphite Project by paying an aggregate of $20,000 plus issue up to 3,000,000 common shares and incur exploration expenditures in the amount of $885,000 within a three year period. In order to earn the additional 10% interest, Xmet must pay $100,000 plus issue 1,500,000 common shares within 90 days of earning 50% and incur exploration expenditures of $1,000,000 in year four.
