About Newlox Gold Ventures Corp.
Newlox Gold Ventures Corp. is not a mining company as it does not hold any mineral properties, nor does it conduct exploration or mining activities. It is an environmentally and socially responsible company pursuing precious metal related business opportunities in Latin America.
The Company is working in collaboration with the Norman B. Keevil Institute of Mining Engineering at the University of British Columbia and, with its experienced team in Central America, has established a waste remediation and gold recovery operation.
Newlox provides a valuable service to local stakeholders where there exist a large number of historical waste dumps (tailings) that pose social and environmental risks. Newlox is addressing this problem by reprocessing these materials to recover remaining values of minerals while cleaning up the environment.
The longer-term objective of Newlox is to establish a dividend paying enterprise, which will allow its shareholders to participate in equity value growth, share in profits, and contribute to environmental clean up, while setting a high standard of social responsibility.
