International PBX Ventures Ltd. - Update on Copaquire Definitive Purchase and Conveyance Agreement
24 Décembre 2013 - 4:28AM
Access Wire
International PBX Ventures Ltd. ("PBX"
or the "Company") (TSX.V:PBX) is pleased to announce that it
expects to sign the definitive purchase and conveyance agreement
(the "agreement") on the Company's Copaquire copper moly
exploration project through its wholly owned Chilean subsidiary,
Minera IPBX Ltda. ("IPBX") in Chile with Teck Resources Chile Ltda.
("Teck"), a subsidiary of Teck Resources Limited in early January
2014.
Consideration to be received for the
sale of Copaquire is US$3,033,556 cash plus a 3% net smelter
royalty (NSR) payable to IPBX. Additionally, Teck will have the
option to buy back 1% of the NSR for US$3 million at any time. The
process of transferring the title of the mining claims will
commence upon signing the agreement and expectations are this will
be completed before the end of January 2014, dependent on the
mining Registrar in Chile.
Shareholders of the Company have
approved the name change to Chilean Metals Inc. ("Chilean Metals")
and a 10:1 share consolidation ("consolidation") of the Company's
existing common share capital at its recent annual meeting.
Management had intended to have the share consolidation and name
change coincide with closing of the sale and final transfer of
mining claims. As a result of final closing and transfer of claims
now expected to take place at the end of January, management and
the Board has also decided to delay the effective date for the
consolidation and name change to this time. We will update
shareholders with a definitive effective date as soon as it becomes
available.
Coincident with the stated share
consolidation, the Company intends to complete, on a non-brokered
best efforts basis, an equity offering (the "offering") of
approximately $1-$1.5 million dollars likely at a post
consolidation price of around $0.10 per share dependent on market
conditions at the time it is announced.
"2013 was a very tough year for the
mining sector in general and PBX in particular. A year in which
survival, was the victory and which, truthfully, feels hollow.
However, 2014 is a new year and hopefully will be about making some
positive steps forward to build shareholder value from this point
through potential joint ventures and exploration of current and
potential new properties. Management feels very positive that this
may become an exciting year to be a shareholder and that the best
is yet to come." commented CEO Terry Lynch. While we have
identified sufficient investor interest that we sense will allow us
to complete the above mentioned offering we, of course, would, and
do, encourage any and all shareholders to contact us for private
placement details should they wish to participate in the
offering.
PBX owns mineral
rights through its subsidiary, Chilean Metals Exploration Ltd. on
six 100%-owned properties comprising over 50,000 acres
strategically located in the prolific IOCG ("Iron
oxide-copper-gold") belt of Chile. Several of these projects are
under review by third parties for possible purchase or joint
venture.
