Divestment of Royalty interest in Madagascan Graphite Mine
Tectonic Gold plc (TDIM: TTAU), the Intrusive Related Gold ("IRGS?&
65533;?) company, is pleased to announce that it has executed agreements
with SilverStream SEZC ("SilverStream") for the sale of the Company's 2.5%
royalty interest in the Graphmada graphite mine in Madagascar.
Highlights:
* Total consideration of up to approximately A$550,000
* The Purchase is settled in cash and convertible notes in SilverStream
The 2.5% gross concentrate royalty was established in the sale by Tectonic Gold
of its Graphmada graphite mine in Madagascar in 2016. Following this
transaction, the Company re-focused on gold exploration.
SilverStream is a privately-held streaming and royalty business with interests
across Australia, Canada, the U.S., Mexico, Peru, Brazil and Madagascar.
SilverStream holds a diversified portfolio of royalties and streams over
precious, base and battery metals projects as well as several strategic equity
positions.
About Tectonic Gold:
Tectonic Gold is a specialist gold exploration company, focused on the
identification and delineation of large-scale, multimillion-ounce Intrusion
Related Gold System ("IRGS") assets. Tectonic Gold holds a number of gold
discoveries in the New England Orogen in Eastern Australia, a prolific gold
region that is home to Australia's two largest gold production companies,
Newcrest Mining and Evolution Mining.
Mr. Brett Boynton, Managing Director - Tectonic Gold Plc
"The divestment of this non-core asset is positive for all stakeholders. Our
former team at Graphmada inherits a strong institutional partner in
SilverStream and we will be able to redeploy capital into our core gold
exploration activities. It has also established a good relationship for
Tectonic Gold with SilverStream, who have been active investors in the
Australian gold industry recently. We hope to find other opportunities to work
with them going forward."
Kyle Floyd, Chief Executive Officer - SilverStream SEZC
"The transaction allows Tectonic Gold to focus on its core business as a
specialist Intrusion Related Gold System (IRGS) explorer and delivers
meaningful value to its stakeholders. For SilverStream this acquisition
represents growth of our existing royalty portfolio and an exciting interest in
a low cost/long life graphite producer. Graphite remains a key component in
electric vehicle battery technology and a sector in which we continue to build
exposure."
