Skyharbour Announces Share Issuance and Cash Payment to Azincourt Energy for the East Preston Joint Venture Project
23 August 2023 - 8:00AM
Skyharbour Resources Ltd. (TSX-V:
SYH)
(OTCQX:
SYHBF)
(Frankfurt:
SC1P) (the “Company” or
“Skyharbour”) announces that, pursuant to the joint venture
agreement (“the Agreement”) made between the Company and Azincourt
Energy Corp. (“Azincourt”) with relation to the East Preston
Project (“the Property”), the parties have agreed that, in lieu of
approximately CAD $543,000 exploration expenditures required to be
made by the Company that were incurred in the 2022 exploration
program, the Company shall pay $150,000 and issue 1,000,000 common
shares (the “Shares”) to Azincourt (see news release dated February
17th, 2021, for more information on the terms of the joint
venture). Further, the Company elected not to participate in the
2023 exploration program with flow through funds being allocated
primarily to its co-flagship Russell Lake Project, and thus the
Company’s interest in the Property is reduced from fifteen percent
(15%) to nine and half percent (9.5%) pursuant to the Agreement.
The Shares shall be subject to a statutory hold
period, as required under applicable securities laws, and, in
addition, 500,000 Shares shall be subject to voluntary hold period
of eight (8) months from issuance and shall bear a restricted
legend with these restrictions.
About Skyharbour Resources
Ltd.:
Skyharbour holds an extensive portfolio of
uranium exploration projects in Canada's Athabasca Basin and is
well positioned to benefit from improving uranium market
fundamentals with twenty-four projects, ten of which are
drill-ready, covering over 518,000 hectares (over 1.2 million
acres) of land. Skyharbour has acquired from Denison Mines, a large
strategic shareholder of the Company, a 100% interest in the Moore
Uranium Project which is located 15 kilometres east of Denison's
Wheeler River project and 39 kilometres south of Cameco's McArthur
River uranium mine. Moore is an advanced-stage uranium exploration
property with high-grade uranium mineralization at the Maverick
Zone that returned drill results of up to 6.0% U3O8 over 5.9
metres including 20.8% U3O8 over 1.5 metres at a vertical
depth of 265 metres. Adjacent to the Moore Uranium Project is
Skyharbour’s recently optioned Russell Lake Uranium Project from
Rio Tinto, which hosts historical high-grade uranium drill
intercepts over a large property area with robust exploration
upside potential. The Company is actively advancing these projects
through exploration and drill programs.
Skyharbour has joint-ventures with
industry-leader Orano Canada Inc. and Azincourt Energy at the
Preston and East Preston Projects, respectively, whereby Orano and
Azincourt earned majority interests in the projects through
exploration expenditures, cash payments and share issuances.
Skyharbour also has several active earn-in option partners
including: ASX-listed Valor Resources at the Hook Lake Uranium
Project; CSE-listed Basin Uranium Corp. at the Mann Lake Uranium
Project; CSE-listed Medaro Mining Corp. at the Yurchison Project;
Yellow Rocks Energy, a private Australian entity, at the Wallee and
Usam Island projects; North Shore Energy Metals at the South Falcon
Project; and TSX-V listed Tisdale Clean Energy at the South Falcon
East Project which is host to the Fraser Lakes Zone B Uranium and
Thorium Deposit.
Collectively, Skyharbour has now signed earn-in
option agreements with partners that total to over $37 million in
partner-funded exploration expenditures, over $28 million worth of
shares being issued and over $19 million in cash payments coming
into Skyharbour, assuming that these partner companies complete
their entire earn-ins at the respective projects.
Skyharbour's goal is to maximize shareholder
value through new mineral discoveries, committed long-term
partnerships, and the advancement of exploration projects in
geopolitically favourable jurisdictions.
