EDMONTON, ALBERTA – May 16, 2018 -- Grizzly Discoveries Inc. (TSX-V: GZD; Frankfurt: G6H) ("Grizzly" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has acquired, subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval, five mineral claims in Southeastern BC pursuant to a Letter of Agreement announced on March 27, 2018.
The acquired claims, covering 9,891 acres and known as the Robocop Property, are located in southeastern British Columbia, approximately 45 kilometres (km) south of Fernie and 70 km southeast of Cranbrook, and immediately north of the Canada-USA border. The property is located east of Grizzly’s Greenwood Property in southeastern British Columbia.
The arm’s length vendors and the Company have signed a Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) dated May 11, 2018 whereby Grizzly acquires a 100% interest in the Robocop Property subject to a 3% net smelter royalty (“NSR”) by issuing to the Vendors 2,000,004 units, with each unit consisting of one common share of Grizzly and one transferrable share purchase warrant. Each warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one further common share of GZD at an exercise price of $0.14 for a period of 3 years from the date of issuance.
The Robocop Property carries a 3% NSR in favour of certain of the vendors, and, under the terms of the Agreement, Grizzly has the right to purchase up to 2% of the NSR (down to 1% NSR) within two years after the delivery of a positive Feasibility Study for the Property, for the amount of $1,500,000.
The Agreement has been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors and has been submitted to the TSX Venture Exchange for approval. Upon receipt of TSX Venture Exchange approval, the Company intends to close the purchase agreement by issuing the units.
ABOUT THE ROBOCOP PROPERTY
Areas with significant historic cobalt-copper-silver (Co-Cu-Ag) in soil anomalies have been identified on the Robocop Property. Additionally, historic drilling during the 1990’s (Teck Explorations Ltd.) and early 2000’s (Ruby Red Resources) has yielded near surface grades of up to:
- 0.18% Co, 0.28% Cu, 4.1 grams per tonne (g/t) Ag over 1 m core length (Pighin, 2009), and
- 0.134% Co, 1.19% Cu and 33.8 g/t Ag over 1.23 m core length (Thomson, 1990)
for individual core samples. The Co-Cu-Ag mineralization is hosted in Sheppard Formation and is classified as Proterozoic sediment hosted mineralization. Grizzly believes that significant potential exists to expand the known extent of the known Co-Cu-Ag mineralization on the Property and further exploration is warranted. Grizzly is currently evaluating proposals for flying a helicopter airborne magnetic and conductivity survey, a first for the Robocop Property, to assist in identifying future drill targets, subject to financing.
