Toura is strategically located within an emerging and prospective nickel-cobalt province. Upon exercise of the option by Firering, Altus will receive a cash consideration, retain equity in the project company and have royalty rights on the gross revenues generated by the project. We look forward to the grant of the application and to working with Firering thereafter. €

Option & Royalty Terms

Upon the exercise of the option, following the grant of Toura to Apalex, Firering will pay Altus ‚¬15,000 in cash and Aeos will transfer to Firering a 95% interest in the Company €™s locally incorporated and 100% owned subsidiary Apalex SARL ( €œApalex €) which has submitted the Application. The 5% ownership retained by Aeos in Apalex will be subject to anti-dilution provisions, until such time that Firering has invested a total of USD1,000,000 into Apalex. Thereafter Aeos will retain co-funding rights.

Aeos will also be granted a royalty on gross revenues generated by the sale of ore minerals mined from Toura, net of transportation costs. Royalty payments will be linked to the USD metal price per tonne of nickel recorded by the London Metal Exchange at the time of sale as follows:

  • When less than or equal to USD 12,000/t: no royalties will be payable.
