The Roger property
The property is in McKenzie Township on the northern flank of the Chibougamau anticline, containing the Mop-ll gold deposit. This deposit, with an underground ramp of 832 m, is made up of large gold pyrite envelope, which are enclosed within a porphyry felsic quartz and feldspar intrusion. The Roger property is at an advanced stage of exploration. The historical estimate of the Mop-II deposit is 3,240,000 tm (at) 1.61 g/t Au and 0.04 % Cu, using a cut-off grade of 1 g/t Au (NI 43-101 by RPA, 2006). The property has an excellent potential for gold mineralization. The qualified person did not complete the work required to comment or validate the technical information or the resources that are the object of the resources estimation in the reported mineral resource. Nevado does not consider the resources that are the object of the estimation as being an updated mineral resource. Nevado and SOQUEM plan to complete basic field work in the following months and will provide updates accordingly.
The terms of the Letter of Agreement are summarized as follows:
The terms of the option will allow Nevado to acquire a 50% undivided interest in the Roger project in consideration for investments totaling $ 2 million over a three-year period, $ 350,000 closed in the first year, $ 650,000 in the second year and $ 1 million in the third year. SOQUEM will act as project manager in the first year and Nevado will have the opportunity to obtain the management of the work in anticipation of the second or third year of the option.
