Landore Resources' CEO, Alexander Shaw, commented:
"I am delighted to announce receipt of the latest option instalment from Storm - the first of the three remaining payments that Landore is scheduled to receive from Storm, totalling C$2.1 million, in respect of the disposal of our 100% interest in the Miminiska Lake and Keezhik Lake Properties in Ontario. Storm plans to advance these properties, beginning with the drill-ready Miminiska target, which has the potential to host a significant gold deposit, and we currently intend to remain a shareholder in Storm as it progresses these highly prospective gold assets.
"The disposal enables us to focus solely on the development of our primary asset, the 100% owned BAM Gold Project, in the prolific gold producing region of Ontario, where technical work is ongoing to advance the geological model including soil sampling and infill sampling of historical drill core. We look forward to providing a further update to shareholders on our progress at BAM later this quarter."
