Wellgreen Platinum Ltd is pleased to announce that its previously announced metallurgical testwork program is now complete. Final metallurgical results will be available this quarter pending completion of reporting by XPS in Falconbridge Ontario.

 

The Company also announces that, effective February 8, 2017, it has sold (the “Sale”) Ursa Major Minerals Inc., formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary, to a private company (the “Purchaser”). URSA holds the Ontario properties, Shakespeare, Shining Tree, Fox Mountain, Stumpy Bay, Porter Baldwin and Porter Option, all of which were considered non-core and non-material to Wellgreen Platinum.

Pursuant to the Sale, the Company will receive total cash and share consideration equivalent to C$200,000 from the Purchaser over the next three years. In addition, the Company will retain a 1.0% NSR royalty interest in the Shakespeare property, and a 0.5% NSR royalty interest in the other properties.

Diane Garrett, President and CEO commented: “This sale allows the Company to divest itself of non-core assets and to reduce the costs associated with care and maintenance activities in respect of these properties. Our strategic focus is the advancement of our flagship Wellgreen Project in Yukon, Canada and the divestiture of URSA allows us to focus 100% of our resources on this world class deposit”.

The scientific and technical information disclosed in this news release was reviewed and approved by John Eggert, P. Eng., who is a “Qualified Person” as defined in National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, and an independent technical consultant to the Company.
