TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Oct. 3, 2016) - VENDOME RESOURCES CORP. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:VDR)(FRANKFURT:9VR) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement whereby the Company can earn a 100% interest, from Chibougamau Independent Mines Inc. (TSX VENTURE:CBG)(STUT:CLL)(OTC:CMAUF), in the Mont Sorcier Vanadium-Iron-Titanium project in Roy Township, Quebec, 18 km east of the Town of Chibougamau (the "Transaction").
The Mont Sorcier property is made up of 57 cells which cover the historic Mont Sorcier deposit described in the Chibougamau Independent Mines press release dated September 22, 2016.
Under the agreement, the Company will pay Chibougamau Independent Mines a single cash payment of $100,000 and issue to Chibougamau Independent Mines 4 million common shares of the Company. A minimum of $1 million of exploration will be undertaken in the first 24 months following signature of the agreement. Chibougamau Independent Mines will retain a 2% Gross Metal Royalty ("GMR") on all mineral production from the property. In order to facilitate the deal, Globex Mining Enterprises Inc. (TSX:GMX), which held a 3% GMR on a number of claims, has reduced its royalty to 1% GMR but it has been extended to the recently enlarged claim group. In addition, a finder's fees of 400,000 common shares the Company will be issued in relation to the acquisition.
The Company will move to close the Transaction in due course and will issue the common shares to the vendors and the finder's fee common shares immediately. All securities issued by the Company in connection with the Transaction will be subject to a statutory four month hold period.
