Nevada Sunrise exercises option for water rights in Clayton Valley, Nevada

21.03.2016  |  CNW

VANCOUVER, March 21, 2016 /CNW/ - Nevada Sunrise Gold Corporation ("Nevada Sunrise" or the "Company") (TSXV: NEV) is pleased to announce that it has exercised its option  to secure water rights in the Clayton Valley of Nevada by executing a definitive purchase agreement (the "Agreement") with an arms-length vendor. The pre-existing certificated water rights allow for 1,770 acre/feet of water use for mining and milling per year (the "Permit"). An interim letter agreement for the purchase of the Permit was previously disclosed by Nevada Sunrise on January 28, 2016.

"We are pleased to have completed the first step for the purchase of water rights in the Clayton Valley," said Warren Stanyer, President and CEO of Nevada Sunrise. "The Clayton Valley Basin was recently 'designated' by the State of Nevada as requiring additional administration, and we believe the acquisition of water rights is paramount for future lithium brines development in the area."

In December 2015, Nevada Sunrise received a written appraisal from an independent appraiser certified in the State of Nevada, which valued the Permit at US$1.42 million. According to the appraisal report, the Clayton Valley basin is currently "over-appropriated", with Albemarle Corp.'s (NYSE: ALB) Silver Peak lithium mine being the largest consumer of water in the area. The report further states that any new application for water use in an over-appropriated basin would be carefully reviewed by the Nevada Division of Water Resources, and that it is uncertain if any new applications would be granted.

In consideration for an option to purchase the Permit, Nevada Sunrise has agreed to pay the vendors a combination of cash, common shares and common share purchase warrants, on the following schedule shown below:

Nevada Sunrise has paid to the vendor a total of US$125,000 in cash to secure its option to purchase the water rights, and will issue the first tranche of 200,000 common shares and the 2,250,000 common share purchase warrants due to the vendor upon acceptance of the definitive agreement by the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV").

In addition to the terms of payment described above, the parties have agreed to the following additional terms:

a.

If within 10 years after the execution of the Agreement, Nevada Sunrise sells the Permit to a third party, the vendor will receive 50% of the proceeds of such sale, less the amounts already paid to the vendor in cash and common shares, with the common shares valued by way of a 20-day volume-weighted average price (the "VWAP"), with the VWAP to begin following the day the 4-month hold has expired for each tranche of common shares released.  Upon a sale of the Permit in total to a third party, the Company's obligations under the Agreement will terminate.



b.

The payment of $75,000 cash and 200,000 common shares made upon execution of the Agreement will be refundable to Nevada Sunrise within the first year from the effective date of the receipt of the appraisal report  (December 21, 2015) should the Company's ability to use the Permit to its fullest extent be restricted by any regulation or statute.



c.

Nevada Sunrise will have the right to accelerate the timing of cash payments and common share payments to the vendor, at its discretion.  All common shares issued by Nevada Sunrise are subject to a 4-month hold period according to the policies of the TSXV, and would bear a restrictive legend under Rule 904 of Regulation S of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933.



The Agreement is subject to acceptance for filing of the transaction by the TSXV.

Nevada Sunrise currently has three lithium exploration projects in the Clayton Valley, which hosts known lithium brine deposits. A drilling permit for the Neptune Project was obtained in December 2015 by Nevada Sunrise from the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, and the Company is currently drilling at the Neptune Project during March 2016.
