30.11.2015  |  Marketwired

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Nov 30, 2015) - Brixton Metals Corp. (TSX VENTURE:BBB) (the "Company" or "Brixton") is pleased to announce that is has entered into an asset purchase and sale agreement with Canagco Mining Corp. ("Canagco") to acquire a 100% interest in the claims comprising the past-producing Langis silver mine (the "Property") located in the historic Cobalt silver mining camp of northeastern Ontario (the "Agreement"). Brixton will issue 3,242,500 common shares of the Company (the "Brixton Shares") to acquire the Property, with Brixton Shares being issued to Canagco and certain other persons identified by Canagco in satisfaction of outstanding liabilities of Canagco. Brixton will also make a cash payment of $55,000.

All Brixton Shares issued pursuant to the Agreement will be subject to a twelve month lock-up from the date of closing as well as the statutorily required hold period. Certain claims comprising the Property are subject to a 2% net smelter royalty and the completion of the Agreement is subject to certain conditions, including TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") approval and approval of the sale of the property by Canagco's shareholders.

Chairman and CEO of Brixton, Gary R. Thompson stated, "We are excited to be adding the Langis property to the Company's portfolio and we believe it will be an accretive transaction with significant upside potential. The Langis project represents a low cost entry into a silver district that has not seen much in the way of modern exploration techniques. New discovery potential is high with a strong possibility to generate mineral resources from past work and additional exploration." Mr. Thompson further stated, "Brixton will continue to seek accretive precious metal opportunities with the goal of being well positioned for a sector recovery and to develop shareholder value."

The Langis project to be acquired including other lands in the Cobalt Camp is 2,520 hectare in size. The project is located 500 km north of Toronto, Canada. The high-grade silver mineralization occurs as steeply-dipping veins within any of the three main rock types; Archean volcanics, Coleman Member sediments and Nipissing diabase. The Cobalt camp has produced over 420 million ounces historically of silver with some reported assays reaching 255,146 g/t Ag or 9,000 oz/t Ag over 0.36 metres. The unmined Langis zone intersected by drilling: 2,115.04 g/t over 9.4 metres and 1,262.80 g/t Ag over 3.9 metres. This area will be the focus for follow up exploration work. According to historical Langis reports, the zone was traced to over 1,000 metres along strike and a vertical extent of 260 metres with true thickness being unknown.
