32. Rio Tinto Agreement Lavras do Sul
Summary of Acquisition terms:
- Amarillo must make total payments of US$ 2.07 million through various installments up to
April 1(st) 2008 in order to acquire an initial 60% interest in the Property. Completed
- Amarillo is required to spend US$ 750,000 on exploration prior to Feb. 1st, 2008. Completed
- Upon completing the above payments Amarillo will form a Joint Venture with the underlying
owners. If the other parties elect not to contribute then Amarillo will earn a 100% interest in
the Property and be required to pay a 1.5% Net Smelter Royalty on production. Letter of
intent signed, full formal document in progress.
- Amarillo will make a US$ 1,000,000 payment to Rio Tinto within 90 days of a bankable
feasibility study being delivered and,
- Amarillo will make a US$ 6,500,000 payment for every one million ounces of recoverable
gold reserves that is covered by the 60% equity in the Property over which Rio Tinto have an
option.
- Rio Tinto will have a back-in-right to acquire 70% of Amarillo interest in the project by
paying Amarillo three times (3 x) their exploration expenditure in the event that Amarillo's
equity interest in the Property contains in excess of 7 million ounces of recoverable gold.
- Amarillo will issue 2,000,000 warrants - exercisable at 50c - to Rio Tinto within 60 days of
signing the final agreement. Expired without exercise
32 AMARILLO GOLD
33. IAMGOLD Agreement Lavras do Sul
Amarillo can earn a 51-per-cent interest by expending $800,000 (U.S.) on exploration over 3 years which will
include a minimum of 2,000 metres drilling and of which $200,000 (U.S.) must be spent within the first 12 month
period. Amarillo has made the $200K milestone and is currently drilling on the IAMGOLD ground.
In the event that IAMGOLD elects not to contribute pro-rata funding after the first earn-in period then Amarillo
may earn a further 29% interest (for a total of 80%) by funding any mineral resource discovered on the Property
through to feasibility study.
At the completion of a feasibility study on the Property, and up to a period of 60 days from this date, IAMGOLD
may either
• elect to contribute its pro-rata share to future funding OR
• dilute its interest to a 2.0% Net Smelter Royalty (NSR), of which 1.0% may be bought back by Amarillo for
US$1,000,000 at any time up to the commencement of production OR
• exercise a one-time back-in right to increase its participating interest to 60% - if Amarillo has established a total
mineral reserve in excess of 2.5 million ounces of gold on the Property – and become operator by paying three
times Amarillo’s exploration costs up to the date of IAMGOLD exercising its back-in right.
Border Zone: Brazil has a border defense zone (like most South Am, countries), that extends 150km from the border
where more than 50% foreign ownership in any property or business is not permitted. Many foreign companies
operate in this zone, including Aura (former Yamana assests) and in the recent past Rio Tinto's Iron mines as well as
many Foreign owned factories, forestry and agricultural interests. Lavras lies approx. 120km from the border.
There is a push to change this law, from 150k to 50km, (it has been altered in the past from 300km to 150km), and
this proposal has already past the senate, and awaits hearing in the lower house. In the meantime Amarillo will
pursue the same solutions that other companies have used, which include a combination loans to a Brazilian
partner and contract mining.
