Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 29, 2018) - Revelo Resources Corp. (TSXV: RVL) ('Revelo' or the 'Company') is pleased to announce that it has signed an Option Agreement with Teck Resources Chile Limitada ('Teck'), a 100% subsidiary of Teck Resources Limited, allowing Teck to acquire up to a 60% interest in a 1,500-hectare portion of Revelo's Cerro Buenos Aires property in northern Chile.

The Cerro Buenos Aires property displays widespread geological characteristics indicative of the upper parts of a possible porphyry copper system.

Terms of the Option Agreement include:

  • 4-year option to earn a 60% interest in the property.
  • Cash payments to Revelo totalling US$425,000 over 4 years.
  • Exploration expenditures totalling US$4.8 million over 4 years.
  • Once the option is exercised by Teck, Revelo has 90 days to decide whether to form a joint-venture (JV) company with Teck (with Revelo holding a 40% interest) in order to advance the property, or to convert its interest into a 1.5% net smelter return (NSR) royalty. Teck has the right to buy-down the royalty by 0.5% by paying Revelo US$2 million, at any time.

Tim Beale, CEO and President of Revelo commented, 'We are very pleased to have Teck as a partner on our Cerro Buenos Aires project. This is Revelo's third currently active JV project in northern Chile, and Teck has indicated that it plans to drill test the porphyry copper target as soon as relevant surface works and permitting have been completed. We are excited to see this program develop.'

ABOUT CERRO BUENOS AIRES

Cerro Buenos Aires lies along the Paleocene magmatic belt of northern Chile that hosts some of the most important copper and precious metals deposits in the country, such as Cerro Colorado (BHP Billiton), Spence (BHP Billiton), Sierra Gorda (KGHM & Sumitomo), Nueva Unión's Relincho deposit (Teck-Goldcorp), El Peñon (Yamana Gold) and Guanaco (Austral Gold).

Cerro Buenos Aires encompasses about 7,600 Ha of 100% owned tenement comprising both exploration and mining concessions of which Teck is optioning 1,500 Ha. The property consists of large outcrops, dominated by the Cerro Buenos Aires hill, displaying characteristics indicative of the upper portions of a porphyry copper and associated high-sulphidation precious and base metals system. A key N-S splay to a regional fault system (Dominador Fault), known to be associated with some of the previously mentioned deposits, is present along the eastern margins of the property.

Cerro Buenos Aires is easily accessed, being located alongside the Pan-American Highway some 2 hours' drive from either the port cities of Antofagasta or Taltal, and is situated at modest altitudes ranging from around 1,600 m to 2,200 m. A new high-tension power line has been installed alongside the main road.
