ASSOCIATION AGREEMENT WITH FRESNILLO PLC
Orex has signed an Association Agreement with Fresnillo Plc to explore the Coneto Silver-Gold Project. Orex and Fresnillo hold extensive contiguous mineral concessions in the Coneto Mining District, which collectively total approx. 17,600 hectares (43,000 acres) and cover more than 40 known mineralized epithermal quartz veins. A joint technical committee, with both Orex and Fresnillo representation, will manage Coneto.
Fresnillo PLC has an option to spend up to US $6,000,000 USD before February 2015 to explore the Coneto Silver-Gold Project in order to earn 55% ownership, and has the right to earn 70% ownership by advancing Coneto to the pre-feasibility stage, or by spending US $21,000,000. As of December 2014, Fresnillo PLC has spent US $5,300,000.
