Fitzroy Minerals Signs Exclusivity Agreement with Ptolemy Mining

27.06.2024  |  The Newswire
Vancouver - Fitzroy Minerals Inc. (TSXV: FTZ) (OTCQB: FTZFF) ("Fitzroy Minerals" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an exclusivity letter agreement (the "Agreement") with Ptolemy Mining Limited ("Ptolemy"). Ptolemy, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, is the legal and beneficial holder of the Manto Negro, Buen Retiro and Sierra Fritis properties located in Chile (the "Properties" or the "Buen Retiro Project").

Pursuant to the Agreement, Ptolemy has granted the Company an exclusive right for 90 days (the "Exclusivity Period") to complete its technical, financial and legal due diligence investigations and to negotiate a definitive acquisition agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Ptolemy, or all of the assets of Ptolemy (the "Acquisition").

The Company will pay Ptolemy an exclusivity fee of USD$100,000. For the duration of the Exclusivity Period, Ptolemy has agreed to deal exclusively with the Company and to cooperate with the Company in connection with its due diligence investigations. Upon completion of due diligence during the Exclusivity Period, the negotiation of a definitive acquisition agreement may not materialize.

Merlin Marr-Johnson, President and CEO of Fitzroy Minerals commented, "The Buen Retiro Project offers the opportunity to work on a potentially significant IOCG deposit in a copper-rich district in Chile, the worlds' leading copper-producing country. There is a real shortage of large open pittable copper deposits with excellent infrastructure in established mining jurisdictions. Buen Retiro Project, if consummated, offers Fitzroy Minerals shareholders significant discovery leverage into a copper bull market.

Should the Acquisition be completed, the Company would have a balanced portfolio of assets. Early-stage exploration for gold at Taquetren in Argentina and copper at Caballos in Chile; plus gold-copper-silver Polimet in Chile that is on-trend from the El Bronce gold deposit, and the Buen Retiro Copper Project which has many of the characteristics of a major deposit. Institutional investors regularly ask the junior resources sector to consolidate projects within a single company and Fitzroy Minerals intends to do exactly that. The Company intends to offer strong discovery potential from a range of projects in the key commodities of gold and copper."
