25.06.2015  |  The Newswire

Vancouver, British Columbia / TheNewswire / June 25 2015 --- African Queen Mines Ltd. (the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has now entered into a binding Letter of Intent with Athabasca Nuclear Corp. (TSX-V: ASC) ("Athabasca") to acquire the Yellowjacket Gold Project in British Columbia (the "Project"). The Project includes all mineral rights, claims and leases comprising the Project, all equipment located thereon and any reclamation bond associated therewith.

The Project encompasses 23 mineral claims and leases covering an area of approximately 55 sq. km located 9 km East of Atlin, B.C. It includes a permitted mining operation with both hard rock and placer exploration targets.

Pursuant to the terms of the proposed transaction and upon closing, the Company shall pay Athabasca a cash payment of CAD $150,000; and shall issue to Athabasca two million Share Purchase Warrants to purchase Common Shares of the Company for a term of three years from closing, of which one million of said Warrants shall be exercisable at a price of $0.05 per Common Share and one million of said Warrants shall be exercisable at a price of $0.10 per Common Share.

In addition to the foregoing, the Company shall make the following further payments to Athabasca on a contingent basis: (i) 50% of the net proceeds of any equipment sold from the Project (after accounting for any sales agent or broker commissions or bona fide third party sales expenses) within five years from closing if an arm's length sales agent or broker is used; or 40% of the gross proceeds of any equipment sold from the Project within five years from closing if the equipment is marketed or sold directly by the Company; and (ii) in the event the Project is reclaimed within five years from closing, a one-time payment of $100,000.

The transaction is subject to certain conditions and regulatory approvals, including approval by the TSX Venture Exchange, execution of formal documentation and a due diligence provision. Closing of the transaction is expected to occur on or before July 30, 2015.

Management of the Company views the proposed acquisition of the Yellowjacket Gold Project as a value-added transaction which will give the shareholders of the Company diversification into North America, whilst the Company continues with efforts to realize value from its projects in Kenya.
