Far Resources Signs Definitive Option Agreement for Hidden Lake Project with 92 Resources
Vancouver, British Columbia (FSCwire) - Further to its news release of January 23, 2018, Far Resources Ltd. (CSE:FAT) (FSE:F0R) (OTC:FRRSF) (www.farresources.com) (“Far Resources” or the “Company”) announces that it has signed a definitive option agreement with 92 Resources Corp., TSX.V: NTY (“92 Resources”) to acquire up to a 90% undivided interest in the Hidden Lake Lithium Property, Northwest Territories (the “Hidden Lake Project”).
The Hidden Lake Project consists of five contiguous mineral claims totalling approximately 1,659 hectares within the central parts of the Yellowknife Lithium Pegmatite Belt along Highway 4, approximately 40 km east of Yellowknife.
The Company has made initial option payments of $50,000 cash and 555,555 common shares at a price of $0.90 per share (the “First Instalment Shares”) to 92 Resources and must incur $500,000 in exploration expenditures on or before February 28, 2019 to earn an initial 60% undivided interest in the Hidden Lake Project. Thereafter, Far Resources shall be entitled to earn up to an additional 30% interest (90% in total) in the Hidden Lake Project by issuing a further $950,000 in common shares to 92 Resources and incurring an additional $1,800,000 in exploration expenditures over the ensuring three year period as more particularly disclosed on January 23, 2018.
Toby Mayo, Interim CEO of Far Resources, commented, “We are very pleased to complete the option agreement on the Hidden Lake Project which our founding CEO, Keith Anderson, skillfully negotiated and put in place over the last couple of months. The Far Resources’ team is eager to pursue this project and realize its potential. We believe it to be as promising a project as our Zoro Lithium property has proven to be. We have ample funds in the treasury for an exploration program and we are ready to move Hidden Lake forward.”
The Hidden Lake property consists of multiple northeast- and northwest-trending high-grade lithium-bearing pegmatite dykes. The dykes are intermittently exposed at surface over a distance of up to 800 metres and are readily accessed by a combination of major highways and historic drill tracks and roads. Recent detailed exploration including mapping and grab and channel sampling has documented the high-grade nature of the lithium in these dykes and have provided the targets for the upcoming drill program by Far Resources.
The First Instalment Shares are subject to a hold period of four months and one day expiring June 29, 2018.
