Titan Iron Ore completes acquisition of option on Wyoming Iron Complex


Saturday, 09 Jul 2011

Titan Iron Ore Corp announce that effective June 30 2011 we closed the previously announced acquisition agreement dated June 13 2011 between the Company and J2 Mining Ventures Ltd a private Jersey Channel Islands company pursuant to which we have been assigned J2’s interest in an option agreement to purchase an iron ore exploration property in Albany County, Wyoming. The property consists of mineral leases and unpatented mining claims aggregating approximately 683 acres.

The Wyoming Iron Complex is wholly owned by Wyomex LLC a Wyoming limited liability company and as a result of the assignment and closing of the Acquisition Agreement, we have the exclusive right and option to acquire a 100% undivided legal and beneficial interest in the property by paying overtime a total purchase price of USD 7,000,000 to Wyomex. The purchase price consists of an initial payment of USD 85,000 and a 4.5% gross metal value royalty payable prior to production as a minimum advance of USD 62,500 every 6 months and upon commercial production from the property, a minimum of USD 150,000 per year. Once the full USD 7,000,000 has been paid to Wyomex the GMV royalty reduces to 1.5% on metals production.

A significant amount of work has been completed historically on the property including 117 drill holes totalling over 85,000 feet, metallurgical work a pilot plant test study a resource estimate and a pre-feasibility study all of which is not compliant with SEC Guide 7 or Canadian NI 43-101. The work done is historical and while informative, the Company intends to invest in exploration over the next year.
