VANCOUVER, British Columbia, April 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Patagonia Gold Corp. (“Patagonia” or the “Company”) (TSXV:PGDC) announces that it has returned three of the fourteen properties comprising the Nico project to Mirasol Resources Ltd. (“Mirasol”) and has relinquished the remaining eleven properties.
On 15 April 2021, Patagonia entered into a definitive transfer agreement to acquire the Nico properties in Santa Cruz, Argentina, from Mirasol. The transfer agreement with Mirasol provides that Patagonia can relinquish the Nico properties by giving 90-day prior notice to Mirasol during which notice period Mirasol can elect to keep the properties.
The Company has been unable to carry out any exploration work on the properties primarily as a result of the unwillingness of some of the surface landowners to grant access to the property, and others to grant such access on reasonable terms. On 10 December 2024, Patagonia notified Mirasol of its intention to abandon the Nico properties. On 27 February 2025 Patagonia was notified by Mirasol that Mirasol intends to keep some of the properties comprising the Nico project, and on 13 March 2025, after further analysis, Mirasol reported its intention to keep three of the fourteen properties. The three Nico properties have been transferred to Mirasol without additional consideration and at Mirasol’s expense, while the remaining eleven properties which Mirasol does not intend to keep have been relinquished by Patagonia.
