TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Goldlogic Corp. (“Goldlogic”) (formerly Nueva Granada Gold Corp.), a subsidiary of Sunvalley Company DMCC (“Sun Valley” or “Sun Valley Investments”) is pleased to announce an amendment to its offtake agreement (the “Offtake Agreement”) with Soma Gold Corp. (TSXV: SOMA) (WKN: A2P4DU) (OTC: SMAGF) (“Soma”). The amendment includes an additional US$3 million advance to facilitate Soma’s development work at the Aurora Mine and increase their 2024 exploration budget.
Details of the Amended Offtake Agreement
The revised Offtake Agreement provides Soma with an additional US$3 million from Goldlogic, for a total consolidated amount of US$8 million. In return, Soma will deliver a monthly cash payment equivalent to 59.9 ounces of gold to Goldlogic for 36 months, starting in June 2024 (Tranche 4). This follows the successful completion of Tranches 1 and 2 in January 2023. Tranche 3, which involves a 1% Net Smelter Return (NSR), remains unchanged.
Strategic Allocation of Funds
The additional funds will support Soma in completing the development work at the Aurora Mine to bring it into production by Q3 2024. Additionally, the funds will significantly increase Soma’s 2024 exploration budget, accelerating drilling on several promising targets across their approximately 41,000-hectare property. These efforts aim to expand resource identification and enhance production capabilities.
Vikram Sodhi, Executive Chairman of Goldlogic Corp., stated: “We are excited to continue our successful partnership with Soma Gold Corp. This amendment to our Offtake Agreement underscores our commitment to supporting Soma’s exploration and development efforts in Antioquia, Colombia. Soma’s advanced geological insights and commitment to exploration are evidenced by their impressive 2023 resource update and align well with our goal of fostering growth and success in the highly prospective and largely unexplored Colombian gold mining sector. We look forward to seeing the positive impacts of Soma’s upcoming exploration campaign on their production and resource profile.”
