Columbus Copper and First Quantum Enter into Project Generation Alliance

08.05.2013  |  Marketwired
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 05/08/13 -- Columbus Copper Corporation (TSX VENTURE: CCU) (formerly Empire Mining Corporation) ("Columbus Copper") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a project generation agreement (the "Agreement") with First Quantum Minerals Ltd. ("FQML").

The Agreement provides $250,000 in reconnaissance funding to Columbus Copper over a twelve month period for the objective of identifying prospective copper dominant projects for acquisition in the European Balkan Peninsula and in Turkey, in which FQML may then elect to earn an interest by funding exploration spending. Specifically, if reconnaissance identifies a prospective mineral project, Columbus Copper will own the project and FQML will have the right to earn up to a 70% interest therein by entering into an option and joint venture agreement with Columbus Copper that requires FQML to fund up to $5 million in staged exploration expenditures. The Agreement may be terminated by either party on 60 days' notice.

David Cliff, the President and CEO of Columbus Copper, stated, "this generative agreement presents an excellent opportunity for Columbus Copper to strengthen its exploration and development portfolio in the Balkans and Turkey at minimal expense to the company. We are very pleased to be working with First Quantum under this agreement, which utilizes the local knowledge and experience of our exploration team."


ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD

Robert F. Giustra
Chairman
