The 5 contiguous claims ("Mineral Claims") consist of a mining lease and a mining concession totalizing an approximate surface of 76.84 hectares. These 5 mining claims are contingent to DNA's mining claims covering an area of approximately 340 hectares on the Montauban Mine Property, and are described as Les Mines de Montauban in the Property Map on the DNA Website http://www.dnapreciousmetals.com/maps.
DNA Precious Metals Inc. has fulfilled its contractual obligations under the Agreement and paid "In Trust" for the benefit of the Vendor funds and common shares of DNA Precious Metals Inc. representing a value of over $600,000 as of the date of this Release.
The acquired mining assets, described as Les Mines de Montauban on the Property Map http://www.dnapreciousmetals.com/maps , are fundamental to DNA's currently 100% claimed Montauban Mine Property mining claims. This acquisition solidifies DNA Precious Metal's Montauban Mine Property bundle, while expanding exploration and mining potential and enhancing access. More importantly, the added value of this acquisition resides in the granted mining lease and underground rights that accompany the newly acquired mining claims.
Reported Historical Past production from Les Mines de Montauban includes 132,000 oz gold, and 4,300,000 oz silver as well as 77,000 tons zinc, 24,000 tons lead.
"This acquisition is in line with the Company's objective of low capital cost production targets, while positioning the Company for continued growth with the Montauban Mine Project. Procuring these claims will significantly increase the Company's long term exploration program, enhancing the investment in these prospective claims" said Ronald Mann, President and CEO of DNA Precious Metals Inc.
