BHP-Utah backs out of Snow Lake deal

The Snow Lake gold property in Manitoba owned by Silver Hart Mines (VSE) and subsidiary Snow Lake Mines (VSE) won’t be optioned by BHP- Utah Mines after all.

Although no reason was given for the decision, BHP-Utah said it would not proceed with the option agreement as outlined in a letter of intent signed by the three companies in early November. The agreement called for BHP-Utah to earn a 55% interest in the project by spending $4 million on exploration and a further $4.4 million in cash payments. The decision also quashed a private placement of one million Silver Hart shares to BHP- Utah.

John McCutcheon, a director of Silver Hart, said “the door is now open” to expressions of interest from other companies.
