Note: Claims 217462 and 569460 are collectively the Greig/Kreft claims, claim 521312 is the Pembrook claim
4.2.2 Greig/Kreft (Schaft North) Claims
In March 2011, Copper Fox purchased two mineral claims (Claims 217462 and
569460 totalling 2,786.54 ha) from Charles James Greig and John Bernard Kreft
(Greig/Kreft) that are contiguous with the Schaft Creek Project claims. These claims
are indicated in Figure 4-2.
Consideration paid by Copper Fox was $250,000 cash, 1,250,000 common shares of
Copper Fox and a 2% net smelter return (NSR) royalty on the mineral claims subject to
a “Partial NSR Buyout Option”. The Partial NSR Buyout Option allows Copper Fox at
any time to purchase half of the NSR for a cash payment of $1.5 M such that the net
smelter royalty is reduced from 2% to 1%.
These mineral claims are located within the Area of Interest (essentially an “Area of
Mutual Interest”) set out in the Option Agreement, accordingly participation in these
claims will be offered and included in the joint venture should one be negotiated with
Teck.
So basically they are saying the claims are not subject to the back in agreement however, the claims will be offered and included in the joint venture. Sounds to me like if Teck wants to back in they are forced to buy these claims as well and they could be costly. This would corroborate with CUU drilling and exploring the northern zones before focusing on the southern portion of the Schaft Creek deposit. Heres to hoping we are too expensive for a 75% back in option.
