Silvergate, one of the most important banks in crypto, is in big trouble. Maybe existential trouble.
(
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / January 12, 2023 / Strategic Metals Ltd. (TSX-V:SMD) ("Strategic") is pleased to announce the sale of eleven critical metals properties to 1137708 B.C. Ltd. ("133 BC"). Ten of the properties are in Yukon Territory and one is in the Northwest Territories.
Under the terms of the January 9, 2023 property purchase agreement, 133 BC will acquire a 100% interest in all eleven properties by issuing common shares to Strategic equal to 19.9% of the issued and outstanding common shares at the time 133 BC completes a listing on a Canadian stock exchange and closes a concurrent $1.7 million equity financing. 133 BC is required to complete its listing on or before June 1, 2023.
As additional consideration for the sale of the properties to 133 BC, Strategic will: (i) retain a one percent (1%) net smelter royalty return interest in future commercial production, excepting silver, from any or all of the properties, which is not subject to a buy-back option or similar rights; and (ii) hold the right to participate in any or all of the first three post-listing equity financings carried out by 113 BC, for the purpose of maintaining Strategic's post-listing interest in 133 BC.
"This agreement brings Strategic closer to fulfilling its long-term vision - the creation of an investment vehicle owning extensive and valuable, share holdings and royalty interests that generate consistent cash flow", states Doug Eaton, Strategic's President and CEO. "Our goal is to unlock the value of our large mineral property portfolio by placing projects with strong, independently managed companies. When this transaction is completed Strategic will own 23 net smelter return royalties and more than 10% share interests in seven companies."
The eleven properties subject to this agreement are the Batt, Oli, Bix, Rye, Sayyea, Hidden, Obvious, Boot, Bolt, Four Corners, and Van. Each property is prospective for one or more critical metal, including copper, zinc, tin, tungsten, cobalt, nickel and/or vanadium. All of the properties are owned 100% by Strategic and none is subject to an underlying royalty.
