Robert Felder, President and CEO states, 'We are very pleased to receive the notification and payment from AngloGold indicating that they plan to continue into the third and final year of the agreement. Based on the observed amount of drilling they have completed, and the recent comments by AngloGold's CEO, we think it is safe to say they are significantly encouraged by the results generated to date.'
AngloGold entered into an agreement with RenGold in 2017, whereby it has the option to acquire a 100% interest in the project by paying RenGold US$3,000,000 by June 21, 2020 of which AngloGold has now paid US$600,000. If AngloGold completes the payments and exercises the purchase option, RenGold would retain a 1% net smelter return royalty on future production from the project. (see NRs dated June 30, 2017, May 1, 2018 and March 27, 2019).
Silicon is located in the Bare Mountain mining district, Nye County, Nevada. The Silicon property is comprised of 277 unpatented mining claims owned by RenGold and an additional 271 unpatented mining claims located by AngloGold within the agreement's project area of interest, totaling 548 claims and approximately 10,960 acres (4,436 hectares).
