摘要

- 与POSCO签订具约束力协议,以现金2.8亿美元出售Salar del Hombre Muerto盐湖北部盆地的矿区
- 银河资源将保留卡塔马卡省Sal de Vida 项目余下矿区的100%权益
- 交易所得款项净额将用作开发Sal de Vida 项目
- 待完成阿根廷相关矿区的转让及登记手续后,预计交易将于2018年第四季度完成

出售的矿区在银河资源位于阿根廷的世界级Sal de Vida 项目(「Sal De Vida」或「该项目」)的北部(见图一)。银河资源将保留卡塔马卡省 Salar del Hombre Muerto 盐湖地区南部矿区的100%权益,该区包括在Sal de Vida 的最新可行性研究内(参阅2018年5月15日的公告)。

此外,银河资源与POSCO将继续物色合作机会,以促进各自在 Salar del Hombre Muerto 盐湖地区项目的未来发展及营运协同效应。

有关转让及登记该矿区的必要手续最终确定之后,交易预计于2018年第四季度完成。交易的所得现金净额将于用作发展Sal de Vida 项目。银河资源在摩根大通的帮助下,正进行Sal de Vida 开发项目的策略伙伴评估。公司在不久将来将发布相关的最新消息。

银河资源董事长Martin Rowley表示:「这次与POSCO的交易突显银河资源在Salar del Hombre Muerto盐湖矿区隐藏的巨大价值,并注入大量现金,促进Sal de Vida盐湖锂项目的发展。是项交易为银河资源目前在摩根大通牵头下同时进行,对Sal de Vida开发项目策略伙伴选择进行评估和考虑的程序,提供最大的灵活性。我们很高兴透过是次交易,与POSCO建立了互惠互利的关系,并期望在各自的项目也能继续紧密合作。这次合作具有经济重要性,因为这意味横跨卡塔马卡及萨尔塔省的Salar del Hombre Muerto 盐湖将有两个规模相当大的锂项目同时发展,为阿根廷区内持份者带来显著的益处。」

摩根大通为银河资源是次交易的财务顾问。
