About the SOMINE Project
The SOMINE project consists of a Research Permit covering 50 km2, the mineral rights and obligations of which have been assigned under a Mining Convention executed between SOMINE SA and the State of Haiti on May 5, 2005 and valid until March 9, 2020. The Research Permit expired on June 22, 2012. On June 21, 2012 SOMINE SA filed two independent technical reports (non-NI 43-101 compliant) to the BME in Port-au-Prince. The technical reports were filed pursuant to SOMINE SA’s obligations under the Mining Convention and in support of SOMINE SA’s application to have the 50 km2 SOMINE Research Permit converted to: one (1) 25 km2 Mining Exploitation Permit covering the Blondin-Douvray-Dos Rada porphyry copper system which contains the Douvray porphyry copper-gold prospect; and one (1) 20 km2 Mining Exploitation Permit covering the Faille B vein gold-copper prospect and host shear structure. Under the terms of the Mining Convention (Article 17), and conditional upon SOMINE SA honouring other provisions set-out in the Mining Convention, upon receiving the two technical reports, the BME has thirty (30) days to issue the two Mining Exploitation Permits. Under Haitian mining law, a Mining Exploitation Permit is valid for five (5) years and is renewable until the start of commercial mining at which time the permit shall be converted to a Mining Concession (valid for 25 years; renewable). The award by the BME of the two Mining Exploitation Permits to Majescor/SACG partner and title-holder SOMINE SA is pending.
SOMINE SA has also carried-out systematic soil sampling and prospecting work over four Prospecting Permits encompassing four 100 km2 areas lying to the East, South and Southeast of the permit subject to the Mining Convention. SOMINE SA has requested the conversion of 3 of 4 Prospecting Permits to Research Permits (50 km2 each) and has filed all technical and source documents in support of its application with the Haitian Bureau of Mines (“BME”).
