Nexus Uranium Options Great Divide Basin Project To Canamera Energy Metals
Under the terms of the Option Agreement, Canamera will fund exploration on the property and make cash and share payments to Nexus over a four-year period. If Canamera completes all earn-in requirements, Nexus will retain a 10% carried interest in the project and receive approximately $280,000 in cash, $500,000 in Canamera shares, and benefit from $2.75 million in exploration expenditures - all without further capital outlay by Nexus.
"This option structure advances Great Divide Basin through a fully funded exploration program while we retain meaningful exposure to the project," said Jeremy Poirier, Chief Executive Officer. "Canamera's exploration commitment should generate the technical data needed to evaluate the property's potential, and Nexus shareholders benefit from that work without dilution."
Option Agreement Terms
Canamera may acquire up to a 90% interest in the Great Divide Basin project through the following earn-in structure:
First Option (51% interest):
- 500,000 Canamera shares issued to Nexus within 5 days of closing;
$30,000 cash payment within 5 days of closing; $100,000 cash payment by the 18-month anniversary;
$250,000 in exploration expenditures by the 18-month anniversary; and An additional $500,000 in exploration expenditures by the second anniversary.
Second Option (additional 20% for 71% total):
- $250,000 in Canamera shares issued to Nexus;
$75,000 cash payment; and $1,000,000 in exploration expenditures, all by the third anniversary.
Third Option (additional 19% for 90% total):
- $250,000 in Canamera shares issued to Nexus;
$75,000 cash payment; and $1,000,000 in exploration expenditures, all by the fourth anniversary.
If Canamera does not complete an option stage, it retains only the interest earned to that point. Following exercise of the applicable options, the parties will form a joint venture to advance the project. The property remains subject to a 1.25% net smelter royalty to Nexus Uranium.
Great Divide Basin Project
The Great Divide Basin project comprises 104 unpatented mining claims (approximately 2,080 acres) located southwest of Jeffrey City and northwest of Wamsutter in Fremont and Sweetwater counties, Wyoming. The project is held through Clean Nuclear Energy Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Nexus.
The claims are situated in Wyoming's Great Divide Basin uranium district. Mineralization in the area is hosted in roll-front deposits, and the property has seen historical exploration dating to the 1970s. The project adjoins Premier American Uranium's Cyclone property.
