Emu enters into an agreement to explore an area in southwest USA well known for its gold deposits

Emu has today signed a Heads of Agreement with Genesis Gold Corporation of Utah allowing Emu to explore the Speedway mineral claims and acquire the Speedway Gold Project from Genesis. The Heads of Agreement is subject to 14 days due diligence period which may be extended if required. .

The Speedway Gold Project is located in western Utah, just inside the Utah-Nevada border, in an area of renewed interest for gold exploration. The specific area was pegged by Genesis based on surface gold [and other] geochemistry, exposure of jasperoids and other indicators [barite veins] of Carlin style gold mineralisation in outcrop.

In 2015, Genesis and Industrial Imaging Company completed an AMT (Audio Magnetotelluric) survey over the area. This survey, which was interpreted by Industrial Imaging Corporation, defined a body of low resistivity lying below the pediment west of the outcrop area with a geometry directly analogous with other Carlin style deposits.

Further investigation of previous exploration has also located geophysical data (induced polarisation) which supports the drilling target.

Emu has agreed to test the AMT target with two drill holes, the second contingent on the results of the first. The holes are planned to depths of approximately 500m and 700m respectively.

Work is underway seeking regulatory approval for the drilling program.

The essential terms of the Heads of Agreement are:

  1. The agreement is subject to annual option payments commencing at US$15,000 and rising to US$125,000 on the fifth anniversary (adjusted for the CPI on the second anniversary) and beyond for a maximum term of 15 years.

  2. Emu may elect to purchase the property at any time by paying Genesis US$3 million less the annual option payments and granting Genesis the NSR.

  3. The NSR is set at 2% for all mined products except for the circumstance that if gold contributes > 85% of the revenue and the gold price is > US$1,600/troy oz, then Genesis participates in any further increase in gold price in accordance with the following:

    • a) US$1,601 to US$1,700 – NSR = 2.25%

    • b) US$1,701 to US$1,800 – NSR = 2.50%

    • c) US$1,801 to US$1,900 – NSR = 2.75%

    • d) US$1,901 and above – NSR = 3.00%

  4. The agreement has other normal terms seen in such agreements such as:

    • a) Area of Influence of 1 mile around the Speedway mining claims.
