(TSX-V: CYP) (OTCQB: CYDVF) (Frankfurt: C1Z1) (“Cypress” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a Definitive Agreement with Dajin Resources Corp. (DJI.V) on Dajin’s Alkali Spring Valley Lithium Property, in Esmeralda County, Nevada.
Under the terms of the agreement, Cypress has the exclusive right and option to acquire a 50% undivided interest in Dajin’s 145 unpatented mining claims and application for water rights in Alkali Spring Valley by paying to Dajin US$50,000 and issuing 150,000 common shares upon TSX Venture Exchange (“Exchange”) approval and issuing a further 150,000 shares on the first anniversary of Exchange approval. The Company must incur no less than US$450,000 in exploration expenditures by the second anniversary of Exchange approval. Upon successful completion of the earn-in period a joint venture (JV) will be created.
Cypress Development CEO, Dr. Bill Willoughby, commented: “Cypress is pleased to enter into this Definitive Agreement and have the opportunity to work with Dajin. Besides exploring for lithium in Alkali Spring Valley, the JV presents potential synergies with Cypress’ Clayton Valley Lithium Project, particularly with respect to water supply. Cypress recently completed an oversubscribed private placement, which will enable us to complete upcoming milestones for Clayton Valley, including further drilling, metallurgical study, and a pre-feasibility study, as well as pursue exploration and a water rights application for Alkali Spring Valley with Dajin.”
This agreement is subject to Exchange approval. All shares issued will be subject to a hold period of four months and one day from issuance.
