Nevada Sunrise Gold Corp. ("Nevada Sunrise", or the " Company ") (TSXV: NEV) (OTC: NVSGF) is pleased to announce that it has completed the sale of its water rights in the Clayton Valley, Nevada (the "Transaction") through its wholly-owned Nevada subsidiary company Intor Resources Corporation to Cypress Development Corp. of Vancouver, BC Canada (TSX-V: CYP) (OTCQB: CYDVF) (Frankfurt: C1Z1) ("Cypress").
The Transaction represents a major milestone for Cypress' Clayton Valley Lithium Project, near Silver Peak, Nevada and provides an opportunity for Nevada Sunrise to share in future success gained by Cypress' efforts to develop a new lithium mine in Esmeralda County . The total purchase price of US$3.0 million included an initial cash deposit of US$150,000 , and a final payment of US$2.85 million (the "Closing Payment"). The Closing Payment comprised US$2.0 million in cash and the issuance of Cypress' common shares to the value of US$850,000 .
The Permit allows for the appropriation of the public waters of the State of Nevada in the amount of 1,770 acre-feet of groundwater per year for mining, milling and domestic applications. This amount represents the largest single volume of permitted water available in the Clayton Valley, which is a fully appropriated hydrogeographic basin.
Net proceeds received by the Company from the Transaction will be used to retire legal liabilities totaling approximately US$500,000 incurred during the water rights litigation from 2016 to 2019 (see Nevada Sunrise news releases dated May 16, 2016 and September 30, 2019 ), and payment of the balance owing to the underlying vendor of the water rights of approximately US$800,000 (see Nevada Sunrise news release dated March 21 , 2016).
