Torq Resources has finalized its option and joint venture transaction with Gold Fields for the Santa Cecilia project in Chile. Under the agreement, Gold Fields can earn up to a 75% indirect interest by funding up to USD$48 million over 6 years.
The deal structure includes: a committed minimum spend of USD$6 million to earn an initial 10% interest, followed by the option to earn up to 51% interest by funding USD$18 million within 30 months, and a final option to reach 75% by funding an additional USD$30 million in the following 42 months.
The transaction received overwhelming approval from Torq's disinterested shareholders on January 10, 2025. A previous USD$1.8 million interim loan from Gold Fields has been converted to a contingent capital contribution toward the initial exploration expenditures.
