09.07.2013  |  CNW
NOT FOR DISSEMINATION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

TORONTO, July 9, 2013 /CNW/ - Polar Star Mining Corporation (TSX: PSR) (the "Company"), a Toronto-based company focused on copper and gold exploration and mine development with operations in Chile, is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with Xtract Resources Plc (Xtract), an AIM listed company to conduct exploration on the Mejillones Phosphate Property (the Property) held by the Company in Chile. The agreement is consistent with the Company's strategy to use cash flow from its Chépica mine (primarily gold and copper) to fund, in part, the exploration programs at its flagship Montezuma property and to advance its large portfolio of other world class projects in Chile through joint ventures.

Under the agreement, Xtract will initially carry out a work program as is necessary to determine and define the potential size of the Property, carry out work to understand the distribution of the phosphate in the host rock mass and carry out basic marketing studies to determine the suitability of the expected final product to the market. Results of the work program are to be reported to the Company by 1 June 2014.

Should Xtract elect to continue work on the Property, it will earn-in to 51% of the Property and will have an obligation to spend US$1.0 million to produce a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) by 30 November 2015. Upon submission of the PEA, Xtract will be granted a further 24% interest in the Property. Should Xtract not submit the PEA, then all rights of ownership of the Property will revert back to Polar Star.

If Xtract elects to continue with the Property after the release of the PEA, then Polar Star will be granted 90 days from the submission date of the PEA in which to indicate its intent to co-invest, or not, in all future expenditures including the cost of expenditure to bring the mine into production.

Colin Bird, Director and Chief Executive Officer of Polar Star is also Executive Chairman of Xtract. Mr. Bird has an insignificant interest in the issued share capital of Polar Star and Xtract.
