Brazil Minerals, Inc. Extinguishes Convertible Debt From Notable Holder

13.09.2016  |  Accesswire
PASADENA, September 13, 2016 - Brazil Minerals, Inc. (OTC: BMIX) (the "Company" or "BMIX") today announced that it had received the final notice of conversion of debt to equity from St. George Investments, LLC, one of its two remaining short-term oriented variable-rate noteholders. The Company believes that the extinguishment of this variable-rate debt and removal of this likely seller of its common stock is a significant positive development.

In other news, BMIX has set up a subsidiary in Brazil to hold its mineral rights for manganese. This metal is highly sought after for many critical uses, including manufacture of higher-quality steel and next-generation batteries. Experts believe that there are four countries with high-grade manganese occurrences and Brazil is one of them. As disclosed in prior press releases, with any new subsidiary, the Company seeks a focused avenue to raise capital for projects, which is less dilutive of the parent, while expecting to generate royalties from such projects. In practical terms, and given its focus today primarily on gold and diamond assets, BMIX is also open to a sale of a non-core subsidiary on receipt of an attractive offer.

In additional news, its gold-focused subsidiary, Jupiter Gold Corporation, obtained in August of 2016 a new mineral rights claim for gold covering 4,669 acres within the well-known area in the state of Minas Gerais in Brazil called "Iron Quandrangle". The closest larger city to this new claim is Itabira. This region, known for both iron and gold mining, has excellent logistics and is also close to the states capital, Belo Horizonte. Geological formations in the Iron Quadrangle are rich and highly complex; gold mines usually begin as open-sky alluvial operations and later advance underground following primary gold deposits. Several companies have operated gold mines within the Iron Quandrangle, notably AngloGold Ashanti and Jaguar Mining. Although a hired expert indicated potential in this claim, confirmatory geological research has not been performed as of yet. This claim is part of a mineral rights bank of assets that should increase in value if research confirms the presence of gold. As stated in prior releases, depending on such research results and other variables, these rights could be developed, become part of royalty-based transactions, or sold; the rights were identified in BMIX's recently filed Form 10-Q for the second quarter of 2016.
