Global Gold Acquires Option On Additional Uranium Targets In Newfoundland
Greenwich, Connecticut --- April 13, 2007--- Global Gold Corporation
(OTCBB - GBGD) (www.globalgoldcorp.com)
today announced its option agreement on the Cochrane Pond uranium
target in the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador. The agreement
is between Global’s wholly owned subsidiary, Global Gold Uranium
LLC (Global Gold Uranium), Commander Resources Ltd., and Bayswater
Uranium Corp.
The Cochrane Pond property consists of 2,600 claims within 61,000
hectares (approximately 150,708 acres). The claims were staked in
early 2006 based upon favorable geology following discovery of uranium
potential nearby. The property is located in the southeast of Newfoundland,
and a map showing the location is available on the Global Gold website.
Under the option terms, Global Gold Uranium may earn a 51% equity
interest over a period of four years in Cochrane Pond Property by
completing:
- Cash payments of US $700,000 over four year period.
- Share issuance of 350,000 shares of Global Gold Corporation;
50% each to Commander and Bayswater over a four year period.
- Property expenditures over four year period of C$3.5 million.
Upon Global Gold Uranium vesting 51% in the Property, Global Gold
Uranium may elect to increase its equity position to 60% by either:
- Additional property expenditures of C$2.0 million over the following
consecutive two years, or
- Delivering a feasibility study on the Property over the following
consecutive three years.
Once Global Gold Uranium has vested the Second Stage, a joint venture
will be formed, 60% as to Global Gold Uranium and 40% as to Commander
and Bayswater. The project will be funded pro-rata by parties according
to their retained interest. If either Global Gold Uranium’s
or the Commander/Bayswater interest is diluted below 10%, that party’s
interest will convert to a royalty.
Either party may, at any time up to the commencement of commercial
production, elect to convert their respective interest to a 2% gross
uranium sales royalty in the case of a uranium deposit or a 2% NSR
in the case of a non-uranium deposit. In either case, 50% of the
royalty obligation may be purchased at any time prior to commercial
production for a $1,000,000 cash payment.
