The Company had previously acquired 100% of the shares of Bonnyridge through a share purchase agreement dated March 14, 2011, as amended August 2, 2011 with Tignish (Pty) Ltd. Bonnyridge is the legal and beneficial owner of three mineral license blocks located in northwestern Botswana, Africa.
Sono's Board of Directors has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to sell its interest in Bonnyridge due to: (i) the ability to relieve the Company of debt obligations in the amount of $500,000 Canadian; (ii) the significant costs and timeline associated with conducting exploration and mining operations in Botswana ; and (iii) the ability to pursue other exploration initiatives the Company has acquired in Alaska.
Gary Powers, Sono's President commented, "Our concentration this year is on the exploration and development of our Alaska claims, and to refocus on gold and silver as the Company's commodity directive. The sale of Bonnyridge facilitates that goal, while reducing our liabilities by about one-third."
