Nevada Sunrise amends agreement with Resolve Ventures and finalizes option for Advantage Lithium to earn an interest in the Neptune Lithium Property

28.09.2016  |  CNW

TSXV: NEV

VANCOUVER, Sept. 28, 2016 /CNW/ - Nevada Sunrise Gold Corp. ("Nevada Sunrise" or the "Company") (TSXV: NEV) today announced that, further to its news release of August 29, 2016, it has entered into an agreement (the "Amending Agreement") with Advantage Lithium Corp. ("Advantage") (TSXV: AAL) and Resolve Ventures Inc. ("Resolve") (TSXV: RSV) that amends its May 3, 2016 joint venture and option agreement with Resolve (the "Resolve Agreement").  Pursuant to the Resolve Agreement, Resolve had the right to earn up to a 50% working interest in the Neptune lithium property ("Neptune", or the "Property") located in the Clayton Valley, Nevada. Nevada Sunrise holds an option to acquire a 100% interest in Neptune pursuant to an underlying agreement with the owner of the Property (the "Vendor"), subject to a 3% gross overriding royalty.  For further details on the Resolve Agreement, see Nevada Sunrise news release dated May 4, 2016.

Neptune Option Amending Agreement

The Amending Agreement supersedes the Resolve Agreement between Nevada Sunrise and Resolve. In May 2016, Resolve fulfilled the obligations of its initial 25% earn-in for Neptune, and according to the Amending Agreement has agreed to terminate its right to a second stage earn-in where Resolve could have increased its interest to 50%. Nevada Sunrise has granted, with the consent of Resolve, Advantage Lithium Corp. ("Advantage") the option (the "Neptune Option") to earn up to a 50% interest in Neptune, with Nevada Sunrise retaining a 25% interest and Resolve retaining its earned 25% interest. Upon Advantage exercising its option to earn a 50% interest, a 3-way joint venture will be formed, with Nevada Sunrise and Resolve each retaining a 25% interest.

Exercise of the Neptune Option by Advantage

To earn a 50% participating interest in Neptune, Advantage must fulfill the following obligations:

(a)

incur total exploration expenditures of CDN$700,000, as follows:


- a minimum of CDN$100,000 before July 29, 2017;


- a minimum of CDN$300,000 before July 29, 2018; and


- a minimum of CDN$700,000 before July 29, 2019,



(b)

exercise its initial option agreement with Nevada Sunrise for five lithium properties, one of which is Neptune, by the initial option earn-in date  of July 29, 2018 (for further details of the Advantage transaction see Nevada Sunrise news release dated June 20, 2016);



(c)

make annual common share payments to the Vendor either by direct issuance of Advantage's common shares, being of equal value to any Nevada Sunrise common share payments due under the terms of the underlying agreement, or by reimbursing Nevada Sunrise with Advantage common shares should Nevada Sunrise issue its shares to the Vendor, at the Vendor's option.

 

Nevada Sunrise will act as manager of exploration during the Advantage earn-in period and will charge a 10% management fee.  Expenditures incurred by Advantage in exercising the Neptune Option will be credited towards expenditures Advantage must make to acquire a 70% interest in the Jackson Wash, Clayton Northeast, and Aquarius properties (see Nevada Sunrise news releases dated July 29, 2018 and August 29, 2016).

If the Amending Agreement is terminated prior to the Advantage earn-in date, Resolve can resume its right to the second stage option and regain the right to earn a 50% interest in Neptune, subject to fulfilling certain conditions.

About Neptune

Neptune consists of a block of 316 unpatented placer claims totaling approximately 6,320 acres (2,557 hectares) located in the Clayton Valley, Esmeralda County, Nevada, USA, approximately 10 miles (15 kilometres) south of the Silver Peak lithium mine, operated by Albemarle Corp. (NYSE: ALB).

Nevada Sunrise believes Neptune has the potential to host lithium-bearing brines in subterranean aquifers beneath the Clayton Valley floor. The Property was acquired after a review of historical geophysical data and reports that indicated geologic formations and structures exist at Neptune that are similar to lithium-bearing brine deposit models present elsewhere in the Clayton Valley.

In March 2016, Nevada Sunrise completed 2 drill holes at Neptune totaling 3,220 feet (981 metres) into the interpreted sub-basin and encountered sub-economic lithium values in groundwater (see news release dated May 31, 2016). However, in hole N-2016-1, the composited samples collected from the intersected sedimentary, lacustrine strata contained lithium-bearing sediments that averaged 156 parts per million ("ppm") lithium over 215 feet (65.5 metres) from 1285 feet (392.7 metres) to the end of hole at 1,500 feet (457.2 metres), reaching a peak value of 217 ppm lithium from 1365 to 1385 feet. This type of sedimentary strata is interpreted as a requisite host horizon for lithium-bearing brines as seen in the northern Clayton Valley.  A third hole up to 2,000 metres deep is planned approximately 1 mile (1.6 kilometres) to the east of hole N-2016-1 in an area interpreted from a 2016 geophysical survey to be a potential trap where denser, lithium-bearing brines could migrate and pool. If results from the proposed third hole warrant, a drill pad and access road have been prepared for a fourth hole location.
