California Gold Corp. Signs Letter of Intent to Acquire an Eighty Percent Interest in Mexivada's AuroTellurio Gold-Tellurium Property in Sonora, Mexico
NEW YORK, Oct. 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- California Gold Corp. (OTC Bulletin Board: CLGL; the "Company") is pleased to announce it has signed a binding letter of intent (the "LOI") with Mexivada Mining Corp. ("Mexivada") to acquire an 80% interest in Mexivada's La Viuda and La Viuda-1 concessions comprising its AuroTellurio tellurium-gold-silver property south of the city of Moctezuma, Sonora, Mexico.
The Company has a 45-day period to conduct due diligence to evaluate the AuroTellurio property, on an exclusive basis. If the Company determines to proceed with the acquisition, a definitive purchase agreement based on the LOI and a joint venture agreement shall be negotiated in good faith and signed by the parties within a reasonable time period. The Company would compensate Mexivada in structured payments of cash and shares of the Company's restricted common stock and would invest a sum of US $3,000,000 into AuroTellurio over a 48 month period to earn the 80% interest in the property. Closing of the acquisition is subject to the Company's raising sufficient capital to meet its first year investment commitment in the project.
James Davidson, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, stated: "We are very excited about our agreement to acquire rights in Mexivada's AuroTellurio tellurium-gold-silver mining project in Mexico. We see this joint venture project as uniquely suited for the times. The "rare-earth" tellurium prospect has important uses in alternative energy, while gold and silver, we believe, are likely to continue to rally due to macroeconomic conditions. As Nobel Prize-winning economist Robert Mundell, 'the father of the Euro,' recently warned, 'We are living in the worst monetary instability in the last 3,000 years.' The prospect for precious metals has seldom been more promising."
In addition to his duties as Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Mr. Davidson serves as an independent director of Anatolia Minerals Development Limited, a Canadian public company whose common stock trades on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX: ANO).
