Debt and Asset Restructure Agreement with Deep Yellow Limited
Uranio Limited (“ Uranio ”, “ the Company ”) has reached an agreement (“ the Agreement ”) with Deep Yellow Limited (“ Deep Yellow ”) that results in the discharging of debt owed to Deep Yellow and streamlines the ownership of certain joint venture projects to enable more efficient exploration and development at these projects going forward.
Uranio has agreed to make an immediate payment of $500,000 to Deep Yellow in settlement of all outstanding liabilities under the original asset acquisition agreement made 21 May 2007 (as varied and announced in Uranio’s June 2008 Quarterly Report). Deep Yellow will now retain 100% ownership of the Anketell project in Western Australia and will, subject to regulatory approvals, transfer its 30% interest in the Gardner Range uranium/gold project in Western Australia and its 20% interest in the Siccus Joint Venture (a uranium project in South Australia) to Uranio, taking the Company’s ownership in these projects to 100% and 90% respectively.
Deep Yellow retains a 30% joint venture interest in the Ponton North project tenements (adjacent to the Mulga Rock uranium deposits in Western Australia) and continues to hold 9.8% of the issued share capital of Uranio.
The updated ownership structure of the Australian uranium projects under Uranio’s management following the restructure is summarised below:
| Project | Location | Tenements | Uranio Ownership |
Joint Venturer |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Siccus | South Australia | 1 Granted | 90% | Signature Resources NL(10%) |
| Gardner Range | Western Australia | 4 Granted | 100% | |
| Ponton (North) Ponton (South) |
Western Australia Western Australia |
5 Granted 1 Granted 1 Application |
70% 100% |
Deep Yellow Ltd (30%) |
As a result of this Agreement, Uranio is now debt free and better placed to pursue exploration, development and/or any potential value-adding corporate opportunities with regard to its uranium projects.
