Zonte Metals Inc. provides update on Gramalote Mineral Rights Application

04.02.2021  |  CNW
HALIFAX, Feb. 4, 2021 - The Company wishes to provide the following update on the Gramalote Mineral Rights Application.

As previously announced, in a press release dated November 19, 2015, Zonte Metals Inc. along with a Colombian Partner (the "Partners") made application for open ground sitting over the Gramalote Deposit. Gramalote is host to a gold deposit located in Colombia and subject to a joint venture between AngloGold Ashanti (NYSE:AU) and B2Gold (TSX:BTO, NYSE:BTG) (collectively "Gramalote Colombia Limited"). The application was subject to review by the Secretaria de Minas ("Secretary of Mines"), Department of Antioquia, Colombia, which acknowledged that the area under application has open ground, but to date has denied issuing the title to the Partners which has required the Partners to pursue the matter through the Colombian Courts with the objective of having the application processed in accordance with the mining code. The mining code in Colombia was modified in 2019, however, the issue remains grandfathered by the original mining code in effect at the time of the application. The case is active and ongoing.

The open areas under application made by the Partners, according to a technical study generated by the Secretariat of Mine of Antioquia, covers 29.8 hectares of which portions are above the pit outline of two resources. An image of the application over the outline of the Gramalote Deposit is illustrated below.

Among the conditions of the case, the area under application is considered to be open ground and hence no exploration or mining activity is to be carried out by any party until the Court has ruled. The Partners continue to be active with the case and are waiting for a Court date for the trial. Updates will be provided as appropriate.
