Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – February 28, 2022) – Tower Resources Ltd. (“Tower” or the “Company“) (TSXV: TWR) is pleased to announce it has entered into a property purchase agreement dated February 25, 2022 (the “Agreement“), to purchase a claim block of property near Kamloops, B.C. known as the West Afton Claims (the “Property“).
West Afton Property
The Property is 1,148.0920 hectares, easily accessible by a forest service road and strategically located between Tower’s Rabbit North property to the west and New Gold’s New Afton mine claims to the east. The Property also lies along the apparent northeast structural trend of Tower’s recent Golden Zone gold discovery (1.40 g/t Au over 95 m including 4.21 g/t Au over 19.2 m;see Tower’s January 11, 2022 press release). Limited surface exploration work on the Property to date, has resulted in the identification of a porphyry-style Cu-Au showing. The principal commodities at the New Afton mine are copper and gold in copper concentrates. The Company believes the Property could be assessed quickly, utilizing the till heavy mineral sampling method that was used to identify the Golden Zone.
Joe Dhami, President of Tower, commented, “The Property provides an exploration opportunity along the northeast gold trend and allows Tower to expand its footprint into a well-known and highly prospective mining area.”
The Agreement
Pursuant to the Agreement, subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval, Tower is required to pay $20,000 and issue 200,000 common shares at a deemed price per share of $0.15, on satisfaction of all closing conditions. The common shares issued in connection with the Agreement will be subject to a hold period expiring 4 months and 1 day from the date of issuance.
