High Tide Resources has signed an option agreement with undisclosed firms (vendors) to acquire a 100% stake in the Clearcut Lithium Project in Quebec, Canada.
Under the agreement, High Tide will have the option to pick a 100% interest in the property by making $100,000 in aggregate cash payments and issuing 1,000,000 of its common shares to the vendors.
High Tide will also incur $1m in exploration expenditures on or before the agreement’s third-anniversary date.
Furthermore, the vendors will retain a 2% net smelter royalty, of which 0.5% may be bought by High Tide for $1m.
High Tide will also make additional milestone payments of $500,000 upon filing a positive feasibility study and $1m once the project starts commercial production.
The firm said in a statement: “The milestone payments may be paid in cash or the issuance of shares at the Company’s discretion and shall be deemed to be an advance to the Vendors to be deducted against future royalty payments.”
