VANCOUVER, BC, June 24, 2025 /CNW/ - Golden Arrow Resources Corporation (TSXV: GRG) (FSE: G6A) (OTCQB: GARWF), (" Golden Arrow" or the " Company") is pleased to announce that it has signed the definitive option agreement (the " Agreement") with Latin Metals Inc. (" Latin Metals") granting the option to acquire up to a 100% interest in the Company's Huachi property (" Huachi"). Huachi is a 3,500-hectare copper-gold property that is part of Golden Arrow's portfolio of over 120,000 hectares of prospective properties in Argentina. The Huachi project is located in San Juan Province and is immediately contiguous with Latin Metals' Esperanza copper-gold project.
Golden Arrow President & CEO Nikolaos Cacos commented, " This agreement marks the third strategic option agreement we have signed in recent years as part of our efforts to advance our non-core assets. Success on any of these projects is good for Golden Arrow and our shareholders. Huachi now joins our Mogote Copper-Gold project that is under option to Mogotes Metals as part of their Filo Sur project, and our Caballos Copper-Gold project that is under option to Hanaq Argentina S.A."
Definitive Option Terms
Latin Metals has the right to acquire an initial 75% interest in Huachi by completing US$1,000,000 in exploration expenditures and US$1,000,000 in cash payments to Golden Arrow over a four-year period. Upon earning the 75% interest, Latin Metals has a Top-Up Right to acquire the remaining 25% interest (for an aggregate 100% ownership) by paying US$2,000,000 in cash to Golden Arrow within 90 days (Table 1).
Should Latin Metals choose not to exercise the Top-Up Right, the parties will form a joint venture (" JV") with Latin Metals holding 75% and Golden Arrow 25%. Each party will fund its pro-rata share of future expenditures. A party diluting below 15% will have its interest converted to a 1% net smelter return (" NSR") royalty.
Work commitments and cash payments commence on the first anniversary of approval of the environmental permit (Declaración de Impacto Ambiental or " DIA"), approving the start of exploration activities including drilling (the " Commencement Date").
