Discovery Ventures and Roca Mines Announce Further Extension of Payment Terms With Respect to Acquisition of Max Mine and Mill from Roca Mines

07.03.2014  |  Marketwired

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Mar 7, 2014) - Further to the news releases dated November 15, 2013 and January 8, 2014, Discovery Ventures Inc. ("Discovery") (TSX VENTURE:DVN) and Roca Mines Inc. ("Roca") are pleased to announce they have further amended the letter agreement dated November 4, 2013 (the "Agreement"), among Discovery, Roca and FortyTwo Metals Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Roca ("FortyTwo"). Pursuant to the Agreement, Roca granted an exclusive option to Discovery, exercisable in three stages, to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of FortyTwo. FortyTwo holds, among other assets, the Max Mine which includes an underground molybdenum mine, crushing, milling and concentrating facilities, tailings storage facilities, mineral claims, mining leases, licenses and other holdings located near Trout Lake in the Revelstoke mining division of the Province of British Columbia. The Max Mine is located approximately 135 kilometres from Discovery's Willa Project and is a formerly producing molybdenum mine that operated from 2007 until November 2011 when depressed metal prices led to its closure.

The first stage of the option was exercised by Discovery on November 15, 2013. The amendments to the Agreement have restructured the second stage of the option into the following three payments:

  • payment of $250,000 on or prior to January 8, 2014 (paid);
  • payment of $50,000 on or prior to March 6, 2014 (paid); and
  • payment of $650,000 on or prior to March 24, 2014.

To exercise the third and final stage of the option, Discovery is required to pay $3.3 million and issue 2.5 million shares of Discovery on or prior to April 5, 2014. Notwithstanding this time requirement, and pursuant to the amendment, the parties to the Agreement have agreed to undertake commercially reasonable efforts to close the Agreement and exercise the option in full on or prior to March 24, 2014.

The Company's President, Akash Patel, commented: "We believe this extension will give Discovery the extra time needed to close our anticipated equity and debt financing and acquire the remaining shares of FortyTwo Metals Inc. that we do not already own."
