BOCA RATON, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- New World Gold Corporation ( NWGC), a gold mining and milling company with existing operations in Ecuador and Peru, wishes to announce that a more detailed and comprehensive sampling program has begun on its rare earth Antimony deposit in Ecuador. On March 2, 2015, the Company announced that it had discovered a rare earth deposit of Antimony. Preliminary independent testing of the deposit indicated that the deposit has significant potential.
As a result of the initial independent testing results and geological data on the deposit, a Chinese group has approached the Company to begin secondary testing on the deposit. Initial discussions have begun with the Chinese group to option the Antimony deposit. The option would require an option fee of $250,000 and commitments to expend $500,000 per year in development work over a 3 year period. The Company would act as operator of the project and maintain a 35% interest in the project.
Antimony was identified in a report published in 2011 as one of 12 critical raw materials for the EU, primarily due to the lack of supply outside China. Processed antimony is used as an alloy to strength tin and steel. Antimony compounds contain fire retardants found in many commercial and domestic products like stoves and refrigerators. There is an emerging application for the use of antimony in microelectronics.
