Resource projects cover more than 1,713 km2 in three provinces at various stages, including the following: hematite magnetite iron formations, titaniferous magnetite & hematite, nickel/copper/PGM, chromite, Volcanogenic Massive and gold.
I believe NSR is based on the ore acquired from Fancamp. However, there isn't another company in U.S. that has Titanium resources. So, ore should come from RGX's own property site.
The property and production sites are near to the highways, thus there isn't much challenge like the case of Rings of Fire to build the transportation infrastructure.
The 2% NSR (4% NSR after two years) is for Fancamp only (Not including Sheridan's).
A purchase agreement dated August 1, 2008 between 7013833 and Fancamp. Pursuant to
the agreement, 7013833 acquired a 100% interest in 18 claims comprising part of the La
Blache Property owned by Fancamp by: (i) issuing an aggregate of 1,500,000 of
redeemable preferred shares to Fancamp, each having a par value of $1.00 (which
preferred shares were exchanged for 6,000,000 common shares of Argex at the closing of
its Qualifying Transaction); (ii) paying an aggregate amount of $175,000 to Fancamp
over a two year period; (iii) entering into a net smelter return royalty agreement with
Fancamp, granting a 2% net smelter return royalty (which will increase to 4% after two
years of commercial production) in favour of Fancamp; and (iv) making an advance
royalty payment of $100,000 on the third anniversary date of the agreement. Pursuant to
the net smelter return royalty agreement, 7013833 may repurchase from Fancamp, at any
time, up to 50% of the net smelter return royalty for a total amount of $1,500,000.
Property Site
The La Blache Property is located approximately 120 km to the north of the city of Baie-
Comeau. The claim block is accessible by helicopter, floatplane or via a network of forest
roads.
The Manicouagan region is situated at the intersection of Highways #138 and #389.
Provincial Highway #138 links Montreal and Natashquan and follows the north shore of
the St. Lawrence River. Highway #389 provides access to the mining towns of the
northeast and links Baie-Comeau to the Labrador border.
Few local resources are available near the property since the area is not inhabited. The
nearest city is Baie-Comeau, which is located on the North Shore of the St. Lawrence
River. The main employer is the Alcoa Aluminium Plant. The economic and industrial
development in the region is based on mineral, forest and hydroelectric resources. The
area is served by the shipping port of Baie-Comeau that is navigable all year and handles
iron ore and other trades. Forestry activities are very intense in the region, and major
hydroelectric facilities exist in the region
