From Discovery to Potential Cash Flow
ExGen Resources Inc. (TSXV:EXG,OTC Pink:BXXRF) is pursuing a project accelerator business model, bringing partners to fund exploration and development activities on its projects. The company currently has six projects, all located in mining-friendly jurisdictions in North America which cover the exploration spectrum from drill-ready to extensively-drilled with a historical resource. The project accelerator business model provides shareholders with exposure to the entire mining cycle, from new discoveries to advanced exploration and cash flow visibility. The use of partners to fund property expenditures also reduces the technical and financial risks typically associated with mineral exploration and development.
ExGen’s flagship development-stage asset, the Empire Mine property, has been optioned out to Phoenix Global Mining Ltd. (LON:PGM,OTCQX:PGMLF), an AIM-listed mining company focused on base and precious metal development in North America. The Empire Mine property is located in Custer County, five kilometers from MacKay, Idaho. ExGen owns a 20 percent carried interest in the project until the start of construction, a 2.5 percent net smelter royalty (NSR) and 3.4 percent of Phoenix common stock. This makes ExGen the second-largest shareholder in Phoenix.
As the current operator, Phoenix is scheduled to release an updated resource estimate as well as a feasibility study in the near term. The Empire Mine has shown significant blue-sky potential as a result of the ongoing step-out and regional exploration program, which has expanded the strike length to 3.5 kilometers. Recent step-out drilling has also shown significant copper grades of more than 10 percent over 1.5 meters, providing evidence of a high-grade sulfide system under the existing oxide resource.
