Innocent Inc. (INCT) Completes Acquisition of Murciealagos Vizcaya and Lilly Rai Gold Mines
August 26 2010 - 7:40AM
Business Wire
Innocent Inc. ("Innocent" or the "Company") (OTCBB:INCT)), a
gold mining company focused in Ecuador, announced today that Global
Finishing Ecuador (GFE) has acquired the currently producing
Murciealagos Vizcaya and Lilly Rai mining concessions, located in
Ecuador's El Oro Province. Innocent Inc. is the majority owner of
GFE via its acquisition of 51% of Global Finishing Inc.
According to an independently produced geological report
released by Innocent on August 16, 2010, the Murciealagos Vizcaya
and Lilly Rai properties conservatively contain 144,492 ounces of
inferred gold. However, this resource estimate is based on mining
to a depth of only 200 meters.
The report further indicates that the gold veins on the
properties may continue to a depth of two kilometers. This suggests
the size of the actual gold resource could be substantially
larger.
"We are extremely excited to have completed these acquisitions,
which we believe have been significantly undervalued and represent
a great opportunity for our shareholders," said Richard Diotte,
Innocent's Vice-President, South America Operations. "Our plan is
to immediately introduce an aggressive new production plan that
will involve opening up multiple new work fronts and mining to
deeper depths."
The Murciealagos Vizcaya and-Lilly Rai concessions are part of
the Zaruma-Portovelo Mining District, which is one of Ecuador's
historic gold-producing regions.
"These acquisitions fit perfectly with our business strategy of
acquiring clusters of in-production and near-term production mines
that are performing far below their true potential," added Mr.
Diotte. "The previous owners of the Murciealagos Vizcaya and Lilly
Rai properties principally employed small-scale artisan mining
methods. We intend to invest in mechanization and skilled labor to
expand production to the mines' full capacities."
Under the terms of the purchase agreement, the Company will pay
a total of $1,200,000 USD for the properties, with the initial down
payment of $250,000 USD already delivered at the time of signing.
Five additional payments totaling $950,000 USD will be due every
sixth months thereafter. Innocent Inc. has agreed to secure and
provide the funding for the acquisition.
