Miranda and Prism Agreement Effective for Cerro Oro Project, Colombia
24.06.2014 | Business Wire
Miranda Gold Corp. ("Miranda") (TSX-V: MAD) and Prism Resources Inc. (“Prism”) (NEX:PRS.H) are pleased to announce that further to the press release dated April 2, 2014, the agreement with Prism is now effective and Prism issued Miranda 200,000 common shares, and reimbursed Miranda US$90,000 that were paid by Miranda to the underlying leaseholder. Prism will be obligated to fund exploration related expenditures of US$4,000,000 to earn a 51% interest and through additional funding can earn an additional 19% for a total interest of 70%.
Miranda and Prism are developing a minimum $100,000 budget work program for the Cerro Oro project, Colombia that will consist of a combination of mapping, rock chip and soil sampling, trenching and possibly an IP (induced polarization) geophysical survey. Miranda will act as operator during the initial work program. Prism will additionally fund a NI 43-101 report that will be written by an independent Qualified Person. The NI 43-101 compliant technical report will recommend a drill program based on targets generated by Miranda during the exploration program.
Cerro Oro covers approximately 1,100 hectares and lies within the resource-rich Middle Cauca Belt in the Caldas department approximately 120 km south of Medellin. Cerro Oro appears to be one of a cluster of large northeast trending epithermal gold systems that includes Marmato which lies 14 km to the northeast. This trend of epithermal deposits is located between Solvista’s Caramanta deposit to the north and Seafield and Batero’s Quinchia deposits to the south. Cerro Oro as an epithermal low-sulfidation gold system provides the potential for higher grades than the typical low-grade porphyries seen in the Cauca Belt. Miranda is excited to explore this area with Prism.
