enCore Energy Completes Acquisition of Metamin US
20 März 2018 - 1:30PM
enCore Energy Corp. (TSX-V:EU) (the “Company”) is pleased to
announce that it has completed the acquisition of Metamin US Inc.
(“Metamin US”) by way of purchase of shares.
As a result of the completion of the
acquisition, the Company now holds 100% of the issued and
outstanding common stock of Metamin US. In exchange for the stock,
the company paid C$55,000 and issued 3,000,000 common shares in the
capital of the Company at a deemed price of $0.05 per share (the
“Shares”). The Shares are subject to a 4 month hold period expiring
on July 15, 2018.
Metamin US holds 13,605 acres of prospective
uranium mining properties located in the States of Arizona, Utah
and Wyoming. The Company also acquired the drill core, geophysical
data, drilling data and equipment related to the Metamin US mining
properties.
The Assets
MEUS owns or controls 3 Arizona State Mineral
Leases and 467 unpatented Federal lode mining claims covering more
than 10,000 acres in the northern Arizona Strip District. The
Arizona Strip district is noted for uranium bearing breccia pipes
which are typically the highest grade deposits occurring in the
United States. MEUS Arizona holdings include 3 recently discovered
uranium bearing breccia pipes that had been identified as priority
drill targets from newly applied VTEM geophysical surveys.
Exploration success in the district has been greatly enhanced with
the development and application of VTEM. An additional 145 VTEM
targets have been identified on the property package.
Although much of the MEUS acreage was withdrawn
from development in 2012 by Executive Order, which is currently
under review by the current US administration, MEUS maintains and
asserts its claim to the mineral rights under valid claim.
Currently MEUS has 3 valid discoveries on federal land, 5 high
priority VTEM targets on Arizona State Lease lands which are not
subject to withdrawal and are permitted for drilling. An additional
34 ready to drill high priority targets occur on withdrawn federal
lands with approved and bonded Notice of Intent (NOI) permits.
These federal lands are under legal proceedings and review.
In Utah and Wyoming MEUS owns unpatented claims,
state leases and private leases covering 4.4 square miles including
several former producing mines with historic resources remaining.
The Snow, and Probe mines in the Tidwell district and the Sinbad
mine in Emery County Utah are reported to have historic mineral
resources totaling several hundred thousand pounds U3O8. Neither
MEUS nor enCore have done sufficient work to verify or properly
characterize these historic mineral resources and they should not
be relied upon. Considerable additional work will be necessary to
verify and report them under NI 43-101 standards. In the Temple
Mountain District of Utah, claims cover several untested high
priority breccia pipe targets. MEUS is believed to be the first
company to identify prospective breccia pipe targets in the
district. MEUS owns claims in Wyoming on the edge of Shirley Basin
and covering a large untested breccia pipe target in Crook
County.
enCore plans to continue to maintain the MEUS
office and warehouse in Kanab, Utah which houses an extensive data
collection, core, sample library and field equipment.
