VANCOUVER, BC, Sept. 12,
2024 /CNW/ - Nevada King Gold Corp.
(TSXV: NKG) (OTC: NKGFF) ("Nevada
King" or the "Company") is pleased to announce
that the Company has completed the acquisition (the
"Acquisition") of an option to purchase a 100% undivided
interest in the property known as the Silver Park property (the
"Property"). Silver Park is located within the Atlanta
Project boundary, totals approximately 24 hectares, and is
comprised of three contiguous patented land parcels described as
the Summit lode mining claim, the Sam Tilden lode mining claim, and
the Roadside lode mining claim in Lincoln
County, Nevada.
Cal Herron, Exploration Manager
of Nevada King, commented: "This
option agreement secures third-party land within the Atlanta claim package that was not previously
controlled by Nevada King and,
importantly, adds further patented (private) ground to the Atlanta
Project. Private land, as opposed to BLM (US government) land,
offers increased flexibility for permitting and siting of mine/mill
infrastructure in the event of a future possible mining scenario at
Atlanta."
Silver Park Overview:
Silver and gold mineralization were discovered at Silver Park in
1869. Production began in 1871 and two mills had been built by
1872. Very minor undocumented production, primarily silver, was
mined from several shafts and drifts around the property, but
high-grade silver values proved to be shallow and did not generally
extend to depths much deeper than 10m. In 1975, extensive shallow rotary drilling
was conducted in the Silver Park area, which defined a small zone
of near-surface mineralization. Silver Park mineralization is
hosted in northeast and north trending zones within the Ely Springs
Dolomite with shallow supergene enrichment along fractures, bedding
planes, and joints.
Terms of the Option:
In connection with the Acquisition, Nevada King entered into an option for purchase
and sale dated July 30, 2024 (the
"Option Agreement") with Ofor Silver, LLC ("Ofor
Silver"). As consideration for the option under the Option
Agreement, the Company has today issued to Ofor Silver,
100,000 common shares of the Company (the "Consideration
Shares") at a deemed value of $0.41 per Consideration Share (being the closing
price of the Consideration Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the
"TSXV") on July 29, 2024, the
last trading day prior to execution of the Option Agreement) for
aggregate consideration of $41,000.
The issuance of the Consideration Shares remains subject to TSXV
final approval and other customary conditions and filings.
The Option Agreement provides that Nevada King may purchase a 100% undivided legal
interest in the Property from Ofor Silver by paying Ofor Silver the
sum of US$75,000 before July 30, 2034.
Ofor Silver is at arm's length to Nevada
King. No finders fees or commissions are payable by the
Company in connection with the Acquisition.
