TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Marketwired – Oct. 3, 2013) – VVC Exploration Corporation (“VVC” or the “Company”) (TSX VENTURE:VVC) is pleased to announce that further to its news release of September 5, 2013, the Share Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) between VVC, Camex Mining Development Group Inc. (“Camex”) and the shareholders of Camex (the “Vendors”) has been signed by all parties. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, VVC will purchase all of the 6,649,200 issued and outstanding shares of Camex, in exchange for the issuance of 59,900,000 common shares of the Company (the “Issued Shares”) to the Vendors at closing (the “Transaction”). The Issued Shares will represent approximately 39.9% of all issued and outstanding common shares of the Company on a non-diluted basis, and approximately 33.0% on a fully-diluted basis. The Issued Shares will be subject to resale restrictions imposed by the TSX Venture Exchange for a period of 4 months from closing.
Camex was incorporated in 2010 and is in the business of developing mineral resources primarily in Mexico. The principal assets of Camex are the shares it holds in the capital of Samalayuca Cobre, S. A. de C. V. (“Samalayuca”) as well as the Escondida Property in northern Mexico. Samalayuca has an option to acquire the Kaity claim measuring 1623 hectares and covering a stratiform sedimentary copper deposit over a mineralized zone with a strike length of at least 5 km. Camex owns 33.75% of Samalayuca with another 25% owned by Firex, S. A. de C. V., a mining engineering company planning a $7M pilot plant, which could generate cash flow when in production. The Escondida Property is an epizonal gold–silver deposit, with three major mineralized structures, covering 178 hectares. The Escondida Property has shown interesting grade values of silver and gold in surface grab samples.
Closing of the Transaction is subject to, among other things, the final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. The Transaction is set to close as soon as possible or convenient after the receipt of such approval.
Further particulars regarding the Transaction are disclosed in the Company’s news releases dated September 5, August 2, July 3, June 4, May 1 and April 12, 2013, as well as in the Information Circular dated July 2, 2013 which was mailed to the shareholders of VVC.
