LIBERTY LAKE, Wash., Dec. 20, 2016 -- Hunt Mining Corp. (the “Corporation” or “Hunt”) (TSX-V:HMX) is pleased to announce the signing of an agreement (“Tailings Agreement”) to sell existing Tailings from the Martha Tailings Area (“Tailings”) from its wholly owned subsidiary, Cerro Cazador S.A. to Minera Triton Argentina S.A.(“Minera Triton”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Pan American Silver Corp. (NASDAQ:PAAS) (TSX:PAA) for further processing and extraction of gold and silver at the Pan American Silver Corp. premises at Manantial Espejo mill, located in Santa Cruz Province, Argentina. The Manantial Espejo mill utilizes vat leach extraction. Under the terms of this Tailings Agreement, Hunt will make available for sale to Minera Triton up to 10,000 dry tonnes of Tailings per contract month. Payments will be calculated by subtracting costs incurred from net smelter return, which will then be split equally between Hunt and Minera Triton.
As an addendum to the tailings agreement, Cerro Cazador S.A., a division of Hunt Mining Corp., has received $250,000 USD as an advance payment toward delivery of the first 25,000 tonnes of material from the Martha tailings area.
Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman Tim Hunt states, “We are extremely pleased to be working with Pan American Silver Corp. in providing existing tailings from our Martha Project in Santa Cruz Province, Argentina. Pan American is a leader in the development of mining assets in Argentina. Our commitment to mining in Argentina is being recognized by government officials in Argentina, and we look forward to the commencement of mining and milling operations at the Martha Project.”
The Corporation entered into a definitive agreement with Coeur Mining to purchase the Martha Project on February 10, 2016 and closed the acquisition of the Martha Project on May 12, 2016.
