VANCOUVER, Sept. 2 /CNW/ - Zimtu Capital Corp. (TSXv: ZC) (FSE: ZCT1) ("Zimtu" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company and its prospecting partners Gary Lewis, Aubrey Budgell and Neh Pinsent (collectively, the "Vendors") have entered into an option agreement with Rare Earth Metals Inc. ("Rare Earth") pursuant to which Rare Earth will acquire a 100% interest in mining claims totaling 508 claim units prospective for rare earth elements located in the Red Wine/Letitia Lake area of west central Labrador (the "Zimtu Property").
For its participation in the transaction, Zimtu will receive staged payments of C$75,000 and 1,000,000 common shares over a 24-month period subject to acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange. Zimtu's acquisition partners for the project (Gary Lewis, Aubrey Budgell and Neh Pinsent) will together receive cash and share consideration equal to that of Zimtu. The Vendors will retain a 2% Net Smelter Return ("NSR") royalty of which 1% may be purchased by Rare Earth for C$1,000,000
The Zimtu Property is situated at six separate areas along the strike length of the Red Wine Belt and adds potential strike extensions to prospective mineralized zones Rare Earth has already delineated at the historic Two Tom, Mann No.1, Mann No.2, and Michelin showings, as well as newly-discovered mineralization on the Playfair, South Block. Rare Earth is compiling all airborne radiometric and magnetic data for the Zimtu Property. Prospecting and mapping to further evaluate the claims will take place immediately. Rare Earth now controls a total of 1,359 claim units totaling 338.5 square kilometres; which gives them up to 70% control of all staked ground in the emerging Red Wine Rare Earth Element Belt.
