ROUYN-NORANDA, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Aug 13, 2013) - Pershimco Resources Inc. (the "Company" or "Pershimco") (TSX VENTURE:PRO)(FRANKFURT:BIZ) is pleased to inform its shareholders that it has repurchased 70% of all remaining net smelter royalties ("NSR") on the Cerro Quema project from a group of Panamanian entrepreneurs (CEMSA).
This purchase allows Pershimco to increase the net present value ("NPV") of the project, providing a higher return per share and a much stronger financial model. Specifically, Pershimco has repurchased a 1.4% NSR related to future gold and silver production, as well as a 2.45% royalty on copper and all other mineral production from the project's concessions, leaving only a 0.6% NSR on precious metals and 1.05% on other metals remaining privately held.
The Company has agreed to a purchase price of US $2.5M over a period of 18 months, to be paid in instalments as detailed below, bearing a 6% annual interest rate.
