February 14 2020 - 7:00AM
Camrova Resources Inc. ("
Camrova"
or the "
Company") (TSX-V: CAV; OTC: BAJFF; SSE
:CAVCL.CAV US$ - Chile) is pleased to announce that it has entered
into an agreement (the "
Las Vacas Asset Purchase
Agreement") with Compañia Minero Don Alberto S.A.
("
Don Alberto") to acquire for a payment of US$
3.6 million, the Las Vacas flotation plant (the "
Las Vacas
Project" or "
Las Vacas") located near
Illapel, Chile. Camrova plans to use this 24kt/m plant to process
smelter slag produced by the El Chagres Smelter of Anglo American
Sur S.A. ("
Anglo") located near Catemu. Mr Tom
Ogryzlo, interim CEO, said in a statement that “This is a very
important step in the future of the Company. It can pave the way
for the Company to produce in the order of 3 million lbs of
equivalent copper annually thereby generating cash flow to enable
future growth.” As well, pursuant to terms of the MMB Shareholders
Agreement Camrova has delivered notice to the other shareholders of
MMB, Kores Lux, Kores Boleo Lux and the KBC, a Right of First Offer
(“
ROFO”) to sell its shares in the “
Boleo
Project”. This offer will expire on April 14, 2020. At
that point if Kores Lux, Kores Boleo Lux and the KBC have failed to
express their willingness to acquire the shares they can then
be sold to a third party.
To fund the acquisition of the Las Vacas
Project, Camrova intends to conduct a concurrent financing of CDN$
9.0 million (US$ 6.7 million) (the "Concurrent
Financing"). The Company is in discussions with various
interested investors and lenders. Further disclosure will be made
when the terms of the Concurrent Financing are determined.
The Company has decided to sell its current
7.23% ownership position (subject to further slight dilution) in
MMB, a world class producer of cathode copper, cobalt and zinc. The
Minera y Metalurgica del Boleo mine and processing plant entered
production in Q1, 2015 at a capital cost of US$ 2.6 Billion and has
a plant design capability to produce up to 56,697 tonnes of copper
cathodes per year. Camrova has delivered Notices of Right Of First
Offer (“ROFO”) to Kores Lux, Kores Boleo Lux and
the KBC with an expiry date of April 14, 2020, for reaching a
decision. Any funds generated from this transaction will be
dedicated to general working capital requirements and the Las Vacas
project in Chile.
Regulatory and shareholder approval may be
required for some of the transactions described above.
