TRU Options out Twilite Gold Project to Copperhead Resources Inc.
TORONTO, ON / ACCESS Newswire / August 19, 2025 / TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV:TRU)(FSE:706) ("TRU" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an option agreement (the "Agreement") with Copperhead Resources Inc. ("Copperhead"), pursuant to which the Company has granted the exclusive option to earn a 100% ownership interest in the Company's Twilite Gold Project ("Twilite" or "Property") which consists of 65 claims covering 1,625 hectares located in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt.
Terms of the Agreement
In order to exercise its option to acquire a 100% interest in Twilite, Copperhead must make cash payments and exploration expenditures, and must issue common shares of Copperhead ("Shares") as set out below:
pay $25,000 in cash to TRU on August 18, 2025 (paid);
on or before August 18, 2027, incur exploration expenditures of an aggregate of $75,000 plus applicable taxes on the Property; and
on or before August 18, 2027: (i) pay additional $200,000 in cash to TRU; and (ii) issue such number of Shares of Copperhead to TRU as is equal in value to $300,000, at a deemed price per Share equal to the closing price of the Shares of Copperhead on the Canadian Securities Exchange on the day immediately prior to the Share issuance.
Upon exercise of the option, Copperhead will grant TRU a 2.0% net smelter returns ("NSR") royalty from any future mineral production at Twilite.
Throughout the terms of the Agreement, Copperhead shall have overall responsibility for the operations on the Property. All work on the Property in connection with the exploration expenditures shall be carried out by TRU at Copperhead's direction and at market rates.
TRU CEO Steve Nicol stated: "We are pleased to be entering into this option agreement on the Twilite Project with Copperhead, which we see as continuing our stated aim of remaining focused upon efficiently discovering the full gold and copper potential of our flagship Golden Rose Project. Monetizing an asset which is not currently the focus of exploration activities by the Company, strengthens the Company's financial position whilst still enabling the Twilite Project to be advanced.
