Hanna Enters into Letter of Intent
TORONTO, July 19, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Hanna Capital Corp. (the “Corporation”) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a letter of intent dated May 17, 2022 (the “LOI”) with Spectrolite Investments (Pty) Ltd. (“Spectrolite”), an arm’s-length private Namibian company operating from the capital Windhoek. Pursuant to the LOI, the Corporation has the option to acquire up to 60% of the issued and outstanding securities in the capital of Spectrolite (the “Spectrolite Shares”).
The right of the Corporation to acquire the Spectrolite Shares is conditional, among other things, on:
| (i) | the Corporation and Spectrolite entering into a loan agreement pursuant to which the Corporation will provide Spectrolite a loan in the aggregate amount of up to US$2,000,000.00 (the “Loan”). The proceeds of the Loan shall be used exclusively to fund the mining activities on Spectrolite’s Exclusive Prospecting Licenses (the “Targeted Properties”); | |
| (ii) | the execution of a royalty agreement whereby the Corporation will be paid a 5% royalty until such time that the Loan is repaid in full; and | |
| (iii) | the completion of the Corporation’s due diligence on Spectrolite’s various projects and properties. |
Upon the completion of its due diligence, the Corporation will prepare a geological report compliant with National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects with respect to the Targeted Properties.
The Corporation has teamed up with local Namibian technical persons to be able to comply with the various legal and regulatory requirements associated with the acquisition of the Spectrolite Shares. The Corporation’s due diligence is currently underway to test the legal and technical aspects of the Targeted Properties.
The Corporation has investigated the prospects of acquiring certain mineral rights in Namibia. The intention of the Corporation is to test the economic viability of the Targeted Properties. Namibia has historically been a friendly mining destination with a well-developed government-controlled exploration and mining department.
The Targeted Properties are located within the NW of Namibia. The Nosib stratigraphic horizon is being targeted for potential copper mineralisation. The type of mineralisation is primarily controlled by sedimentological bedded units; however it is common to have the structurally controlled mineralisation as well as supergene enrichment. Typically it is common to have polymetallic carbonate hosted mineralisation within the Tsumeb Group and structural or sedimentological controlled mineralisation within the Nosib Group.
