HAWKEYE SELLS ITS B.C. GOLDEN TRIANGLE PROPERTIES TO NEWCREST
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada - HAWKEYE Gold & Diamond Inc. (the “Company” or
"HAWKEYE") (TSX.V-HAWK; Frankfurt Ticker: HGT; WKN: A12A61 ISIN: CA42016R3027):
is pleased to announce it has entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) to sell 100% of its
interests in the McBride, Railway, Boomerang and Todagin properties (“Properties”) to Newcrest Red Chris
Mining Ltd. (“Newcrest”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Newcrest Mining Limited (ASX, TSX, PNGX:
NCM), for total consideration of CAD$1,400,000. The sale is also subject to a royalty agreement in favour
of Hawkeye by way of a separate royalty agreement further described below.
The Properties are located in Tahltan First Nation Territory strategically situated in the Golden Triangle of
northwest British Columbia with the McBride, Railway and Todagin properties being situated contiguous
to the border of and in close proximity to Newcrest’s (70% interest) and Imperial Metal Corporation’s (30%
interest) (TSX: III) Red Chris Mine. The Boomerang Property is approximately 25 kilometres northwest
of Teck Resources Limited’s and Copper Fox Metals Inc.’s Schaft Creek deposit and approximately 50
kilometres north of the Galore Creek deposit held by Teck Resources Limited and Newmont Corporation.
Hawkeye will also retain a 2% Net Smelter Royalty (NSR) on each of the Properties. Newcrest may
purchase the first 1% of the NSR on each of the Properties for cash consideration of CAD$1,500,000.
Thereafter, Newcrest may purchase a further three-quarters of the remaining NSR on each of the Properties
by paying Hawkeye an additional CAD$1,000,000 in cash. Thereafter, Hawkeye will retain a 0.25% NSR
interest in each Property. Newcrest’s entitlement to purchase these portions of the NSR will terminate sixty
(60) days from the commencement of construction of a mine on each property. The NSR is also subject to
a right of first refusal in favour of Newcrest.
All amounts are in Canadian dollars.
The sale of the Properties is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval.
