Vancouver, B.C., January 30, 2017 – Condor Resources Inc. – (“Condor” or the “Company”) (TSXV:CN) is pleased to announce that it has arranged a $500,000 private placement financing with Sandstorm Gold Ltd. (“Sandstorm”). Condor is also pleased to announce it has reached agreement with Sandstorm to grant royalties on six projects, sell a partial interest in two of their existing royalty streams, and assign royalty buy-back rights on two of their projects to Sandstorm (the “Royalty Sale”) in consideration of the payment of $500,000. Closing is subject to regulatory approval, and is anticipated to occur within five business days.
The private placement will consist of 6,666,667 units at $0.075, with each unit consisting of one common share and one warrant. Each warrant will be exercisable at $0.15 into one common share for a period of five years. No commissions or finder’s fees are payable on the private placement. On closing Sandstorm will own approximately 6.8% of Condor’s issued capital.
The package of assets in the Royalty Sale includes the grant of a 0.5% NSR on Condor’s Pucamayo, San Martin, Quriurqu, Humaya, Quilisane, and Huiñac Punta projects, the sale of 50% of Condor’s production royalties on the Chavin and Lucero projects, and the assignment of the royalty buyback rights on the Ocros concessions, and the Pucamayo 14 concession (in both cases, a 1% NSR).
Proceeds from the private placement and the Royalty Sale will be used for exploration and general corporate purposes.
Condor President Lyle Davis noted: “We are delighted to have Sandstorm as a significant shareholder, and appreciate their vote of confidence in our portfolio of projects in Peru. We believe the financing and royalty sale allows us to advance our projects, strengthen our balance sheet, and minimize shareholder and project dilution”.
