20 April 2017 ASX Announcement Veriluma Boosts Balance Sheet with Sale of Mining Assets

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Terms agreed for the sale of the Jaurdi Hills Project with $500,000 to be paid up front and a further $500,000 payment to be back ended upon the delineation of a JORC resource by the buyer; and
  • This significant balance sheet boost enables Veriluma to focus on developing key potential revenue partnerships currently in the pipeline.

Leading Australian prescriptive analytics company Veriluma Limited (ASX: VRI) (Veriluma or Company) is pleased to announce that it has executed a binding Term Sheet Agreement (Agreement) for the sale of its Jaurdi Hills Project (Project) near Coolgardie in Western Australia.

The sale of the Project is to an unlisted gold exploration and development company, Ausgold Resources Pty Ltd (Ausgold), with a portfolio of highly prospective assets including high grade Californian gold projects. Key terms of the Agreement with Ausgold are:

  • Payment of $50,000 cash upon the signing of the Agreement (now concluded);

  • Payment of an additional $450,000 cash upon the signing of a definitive longer form agreement, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement; and

    • Payment of an additional $500,000 cash upon the delineation of a JORC-compliant mineral resource estimate of not less than 300,000 ounces of contained gold.

Commenting on the sale of the Project, Veriluma Managing Director, Elizabeth Whitelock, said:

"The sale of Jaurdi Hills on favourable terms has the twin bonus of a cash injection to the Company whilst at the same time improving the balance sheet bottom line by negating budgeted holding costs associated with the non-core mining assets. Veriluma consequently is in a stronger position to focus on its business development strategy."

Director of Ausgold, Gary Lewis, commented on the acquisition saying:

"This is a positive outcome for both companies. Our due diligence revealed the high prospectivity of the Jaurdi Hills Project and our confidence in the potential target of plus 300,000 ounces of a JORC 2012 resource of contained gold."

A further update on the transaction will be provided upon signing of the longer form agreement contemplated in stage 2 of the transaction.
