SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES.
Bankers Cobalt Corp. (TSXV:BANC) (the
“
Corporation” or “
Bankers”)
announces that it has entered into an agreement to earn up to a 70%
interest in six additional concessions in southern DRC Copperbelt.
Bankers now has a total of 20 concessions with potential for cobalt
and copper in the DRC and having a total area more than 297 km².
Bankers now has one of the largest DRC exploration land packages
held by a junior mining company.
The concessions are all located in the southern
DRC Copperbelt. One of the concessions is contiguous to the
Corporation’s Kankutu project and is also contiguous to the
operating Kimpe cobalt and copper mine. Bankers exploration teams
have been conducting work programs consisting of surface sampling,
pits, trenching, and now geophysics at the Kankutu and
Comima/Comipad projects and concurrently an ongoing drilling
program at the Kabolela project.
Kevin Torudag, the President of Bankers DRC
subsidiary stated, “The acquisition of interests in six additional
concessions in the DRC Copperbelt shows our commitment to our plan
for expansion and maintaining our lead in the junior mining sector
for cobalt and copper in the DRC. It is also important to note that
the acquisitions are the culmination of a relationship that has
developed over two years. We will continue to assess and acquire
additional properties to add to our land package.”
