SOTKAMO SILVER SIGNS AN OPTION AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE THE CONCENTRATION PLANT FROM THE BLAIKEN MINE
Sotkamo Silver has signed an option agreement with Lappland Goldminers Sorsele AB in bankruptcy, to acquire the concentration plant with all equipment from Blaiken. The provision for the acquisition is that a legal Due Diligence is positive by June 30th 2015.
Technical Due Diligence has been carried out with positive results. The plant is in good condition and well adapted to Sotkamo Silver's needs. Sotkamo Silver's intention is to move plant and machinery to the Company's Silver Mine project in Sotkamo municipality, Finland.
The transaction consists of the plant, inclusive equipment for ore processing, and removable buildings. A final acquisition expects to reduce the Company's total capital need considerably for construction of the Silver Mine.
