31.03.2015 | ABN Newswire
Perth, Australia (ABN Newswire) - Triton Minerals Ltd. (ASX:TON) (Triton or Company) is pleased to advise that Triton has signed a binding agreement to form a strategic alliance with AMG Mining AG (AMG) through the AMG subsidiary of GK Ancuabe Graphite Mine, SA (GK).
Triton Minerals' Managing Director & CEO Brad Boyle said: "This is a significant partnership for Triton as we move ahead towards graphite production in Mozambique. AMG is highly regarded as one of the world's leading graphite companies and brings to the partnership a wealth of knowledge, experience and expertise in the graphite sector. AMG has recently taken the strategic decision to restart mining activities in the Ancuabe district of Mozambique.
We look forward to working closely with AMG and aim to jointly increase the known resource base in the Ancuabe district in the very near future."
The strategic alliance between AMG and Triton is for an initial exclusive period of two years during which the Parties will collaborate on the exploration, identification and development of graphite occurrences in the Ancuabe district, within the Province of Cabo Delgado in Mozambique.
The combined project area is located approximately 45km directly west from the Regional Capital and Port of Pemba with sealed road access to the town of Ancuabe (Figure 1 in link below)
GK's Mozambique assets include permitted mining concession 4C that encompasses a functional graphite producing plant (on care and maintenance) and associated mining and production infrastructure. Triton's exploration tenure completely surrounds this mining concession (Figure 2 in link below).
