BacTech Signs Letter of Intent to Sell a Portion of it's Annual Silver Production to Silver Crown

31.05.2024  |  The Newswire
Adds $4 Million in Assets to Balance Sheet

Toronto - BacTech Environmental Corp. ("BacTech" or "the Company") has announced the signing of a Letter of Intent ("LOI") with Silver Crown Royalties ("SCRI") for the sale of a portion of its anticipated annual silver production. The silver will be produced as a by-product of its planned bioleach gold production in Tenguel, Ecuador.

Under the terms of the LOI, BacTech will deliver 90%, but no less than 35,000 ounces of silver per annum for a period of ten years. The key terms of the agreement are outlined as follows:

  1. C$1.0 million worth of SCRI units upon execution of the definitive agreement. Each unit will consist of one common share of SCRI and one 3-year warrant. The first tranche will be 2,000,000 shares and 2,000,000 common share purchase warrants (exercise price is $0.80 for 3 years).

  1. C$1.0 million worth of SCRI shares upon successful completion of the financing to build the Tenguel plant. For the subsequent issuances, the price of issuance will be $0.50 or the trailing Volume Weighted Average Price ("VWAP") of the Common Shares, whichever is greater.

  1. C$1.0 million worth of SCRI shares at the onset of construction.

  1. C$1.0 million worth of SCRI shares at the commencement of production.

The transaction is subject to due diligence and the signing of a definitive agreement, with the closing expected within the next three months. SCRI shares are anticipated to listed to trade in the third quarter of this year. It is expected that each tranche will have a 4-month hold period.

"Given the relatively low contribution of silver to BacTech's revenue, we deemed it prudent to monetize it and add $4.0 million in assets to the Company's balance sheet. At current silver prices (~US$30), the expected annual revenue for the first phase is approximately $1,050,000, accounting for 1.3% of total revenues. Essentially, as long as we hold the shares in SCRI, we will remain exposed to any increases in the price of silver," concluded Ross Orr, President and CEO of BacTech.

BacTech anticipates gold production ranging between 31,000 and 35,000 ounces per annum, along with silver production ranging between 45,000 and 50,000 ounces from the project's first phase. The second phase, expected to increase throughput fourfold, will significantly boost the production of both metals.

BacTech continues to work with interested parties to finance the construction of the plant. All of the necessary permits have been issued including the Environmental Impact Study and the Consultation permit. Construction time is estimated to be 12-14 months from receipt of the funding.
