AMAROQ MINERALS ANNOUNCES KEY AGREEMENTS IN PREPARATION FOR GOLD PRODUCTION IN NALUNAQ
Amaroq Minerals Ltd. has signed several significant agreements in connection with the expected start of gold production at Nalunaq. These agreements mark a significant step as the company prepares for its first gold pour in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Amaroq has entered into an offtake agreement with Auramet International Inc., whereby Auramet will purchase all of the gold produced from Amaroq's Nalunaq gold mine in southern Greenland. Auramet also offers various financing facilities, such as pre-export finance, which could add to Amaroq's financial flexibility to advance its operations.
In addition, Amaroq has secured an agreement with Metalor Technologies SA, which specializes in the evaluation and refining of precious metals at its refinery located in Switzerland. Metalor will process all the dore alloy obtained from Nalunaq.
Ellert Arnarson, chief financial officer of Amaroq, commented:
"We are pleased to have signed these important agreements with established partners in the industry, providing us with the necessary support and expertise to ensure the successful delivery and sale of gold produced from Nalunaq at competitive industry terms. Importantly, we are also committed to offering local people the opportunity to buy gold sourced from Nalunaq, and will be partnering with a U.K. [United Kingdom] refinery to enable us to do so. We look forward to a productive collaboration as we approach first gold and beyond."
