Mammoth Energy Group Signs Financial Advisory Agreement With GR WHITE Capital Ltd of Canada
NEW YORK, NY, Aug 13, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- Mammoth Energy Group Inc. (PINKSHEETS: MMTE) announced today it has signed an advisory agreement with GR WHITE Capital Ltd. of Toronto, Ontario Canada to advise on the raising of up to $30 million for its lithium projects in Chile.
GR WHITE Capital Ltd. is led by Mr. Grant White, the former head of investment banking at Blackmont Capital in Toronto, Ontario Canada. GR WHITE Capital Ltd. is an advisory services company with a primary focus on natural resource companies worldwide including mining. At Blackmont, Mr. White was head of investment banking where his department was involved in over $1 billion of natural resource and mining transactions.
Mammoth Energy Group Inc. has signed a Letter of Intent to acquire forty-nine percent (49%) of the outstanding stake of Salt Gold Inter Chile Limitada's concessions in the Salar de Maricunga located in the Atacama Desert near Copiapo, Chile.
Salt Gold Inter Chile Limitada lithium concessions consist of 1008 acres in the Salar de Maricunga. Preliminary results of drilling and chemical analysis from its project under development has returned results and confirmed the presence of lithium -- potassium brine bearing aquifers. Brine Concentrations averaged grades of 650 ppm (parts per million) for lithium and 9500 ppm for potassium. These results confirm a significant third dimension to surface brines sampled on the project. The brine chemistry in the first test wells compares favorably to other Lithium companies in the region including the large multi-national Lithium producers whose estimates in the Atacama and throughout the region average 500 to 750 ppm Lithium and 9000-10000 ppm for potassium. Depths at the Salar de Maricunga average 100 Meters or 300 feet and currently acres are valued around $30,000 USD.
"We are very pleased to be moving forward with Mr. White, his team is top notch and with his extensive track record, Mammoth Energy Group is moving in the right direction," said William Lieberman, President of Mammoth Energy Group.
