Mineral Exploration and Option Agreement
On May 23, 2024, Standard Silver Corp. (“Standard Silver”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Texas Mineral Resource Corp. (the “Company”), entered into amendment No. 1 (“Amendment”) to the Mineral Exploration and Option Agreement dated October 7, 2021 (“Mineral Exploration and Option Agreement”) by and between Standard Silver and Santa Fe Gold Corporation (“Santa Fe”). Under terms of the Amendment, the primary modifications were changes to the defined terms of (i) “project area” which has been expanded from 80 contiguous acres to encompass the area within the mining claims, as identified in the Mineral Exploration and Option Agreement, and area of interest which is approximately 1,600 acres, (ii) “feasibility study” which now provides that this study will be an assessment by Standard Silver of the technical and economic practicality of conducting mining operations within the project area identified by Standard Silver sufficient to pursue project financing, which the parties will jointly pursue through mutual best efforts to achieve a financing facility, and (iii) “examination period” which has been modified to be the period of time during which Standard Silver analyzes the potential of the project area. The Amendment also modified certain provisions to reflect the changed defined terms and rights and obligations associated therewith. Additionally, Santa Fe agreed not to transfer all or any portion of its mining claims, as identified in the Mineral Exploration and Option Agreement, without providing Standard Silver a right of first refusal to purchase such properties.
The foregoing description of the agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Amendment, a copy of which the Company is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1.
The Company issued a press release on May 30, 2024 announcing the entry into the Amendment with Santa Fe, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
