Marketwired
Further to its press release dated May 11, 2011, and TSX Venture
Exchange acceptance, American Consolidated Minerals Corp. (the
"Company") (TSX VENTURE: AJC) is pleased to report that it has
closed the transaction with Sparton Resources Inc. ("Sparton") for
the acquisition of Sparton's 50% interest in the 500-hectare Sierra
Rosario Property ("Sierra Rosario"), located in the state of
Sinaloa, Mexico (the "Acquisition"). International Northair Mines
Ltd (TSX VENTURE: INM) is the owner of the other 50% of Sierra
Rosario and the project operator.
The Company and Sparton have agreed to amend the schedule of
payments as stipulated in the original agreement, such that the
Company will complete the aggregate purchase consideration of
$500,000 and 500,000 common shares by March 1, 2012, with terms as
follows:
a. On or before August 4, 2011, a cash payment of $100,000 and the delivery
of 250,000 shares of American Consolidated; (paid and shares issued)
b. on or before September 1, 2011, a further payment of $100,000;
c. commencing October 1st, 2011 and on or before the first day of every
month thereafter, a monthly payment of $50,000 until an aggregate cash
payment of $500,000 is completed. For further clarity, the last monthly
payment of $50,000 shall be made on or before March 1, 2012.
In consideration of amending the cash payment terms as requested
by the Company, Sparton will receive a further cash payment of
$30,000 when the Company completes the acquisition of the 50%
interest in Sierra Rosario. The Company has also agreed that upon
completion of an equity financing of a minimum of $1.5 million
before March 1, 2012, the amended payment schedule will be
accelerated, such that all unpaid amounts will be due and payable
immediately, and the balance of 250,000 shares of American
Consolidated will be issued concurrently, subject to regulatory
approvals. All securities issued pursuant to this Acquisition will
be subject to a four-month hold period.
To complete the initial cash payments required by Sparton and to
meet other property payments required, the Company secured a bridge
loan financing of $250,000 (the "Loan") with a group of lenders
comprised of certain insiders. The unsecured Loan is due and
payable in 12 months, with interest payable at 10% per annum.
Pursuant to Exchange policies, the Company has agreed to grant an
aggregate of 625,000 common shares to the lenders as a bonus for
extending the Loan to the Company, subject to Exchange
acceptance.
"We are excited about this acquisition as Sierra Rosario
represents a drill-ready property with potential for bulk-tonnage
mineable silver-gold deposits," said American Consolidated Minerals
President, Al Fabbro. "With our joint venture partner's proven and
successful exploration experience in Mexico, we are confident we
will move this project forward with positive results for our
shareholders."
American Consolidated is dedicated to the principles of
environmentally sound mining practices and believes that
environmental stewardship and mining can co-exist.
