January 3, 2020
Erin Ventures Inc. [TSXV: EV] is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement to re-acquire an interest in the Jarandol Basin Exploration License (“Jarandol”) in Serbia, which was previously held by Erin from 2013 to 2018. The Jarandol License covers 20.97 square kilometers and is directly adjacent to, and in between, both Erin’s 100% owned Piskanja boron project on the eastern edge of the Jarandol Basin, and the Serbian government’s Pobrdje Boron Mine, some 2.5 km away from Piskanja on the opposite edge of the basin. Previous exploration has shown that Jarandol has the potential to host extensions to both the Piskanja and Pobrdje boron deposits, and/or the potential to host separate, similar boron deposits. The Jarandol license includes the right to explore for borates, lithium and other non-metallic minerals, is valid until February 2022, and is extendible thereafter for up to 8 years in total.
Erin’s wholly-owned, high-grade Piskanja boron deposit’s Mineral Resource Estimate includes an indicated mineral resource of 7.8 million tonnes (averaging 31.0 per cent B2O3), and an inferred resource of 3.4 million tonnes (averaging 28.6 per cent B2O3), calculated in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves (CIM Standards).
Jarandol agreement terms
Erin’s previous exploration at Jarandol
On December 22, 2015, Erin reported results from its exploration program on Jarandol. This phase included the drilling of 8 exploratory vertical diamond drill holes (totaling 2,723.8 meters). Highlights of the program included: all 8 holes returned occurrences of borates; holes EVJ-04 and EVJ-05 confirmed 1 borate bed (including 1.88 meters of 41.31% B2O3); hole EVJ-06 confirmed 2 borate beds including the same bed seen in holes EVJ-04 and EVJ-5, (including 1.3 meters of 41.88% B2O3); holes EVJ-01, EVJ-02, EVJ-03, EVJ-07 and EVJ-08 returned non-economic borate values (assuming cut-offs of 12% B2O3 and 1.0 meter minimum intervals), and; collectively, twenty-seven intervals of borate mineralization were detected in holes EVJ-02, EVJ-04, EVJ-05, EVJ-06, EVJ-07 and EVJ-08 grading from 4.00% to 9.76% B2O3.
As reported by Erin on June 29, 2018, management elected to complete the work required to keep its flagship Piskanja Project license in good standing rather than Jarandol, as there were not the resources available to complete the required work on both. It was in the best interest of Erin’s shareholders for Erin to, first and foremost, focus on advancing its Piskanja Project towards becoming a “going concern” operation, and then secondarily look to advance Jarandol, if, and as additional resources became available.
About the Jarandol Basin
The Jarandol Basin is a well-known historical mining district in southern Serbia which hosts two known boron deposits, an operating coal mine, and a (now depleted) magnesite mine. The Basin hosts excellent infrastructure for mining including local paved roads, rail, power, experienced miners, and sufficient support industries, located 250 km south of Belgrade by good paved roads.
The Jarandol Basin is a Miocene age tertiary deposit located within the Vardar Belt of Neogene lacustrine deposits of evaporates. The Vardar Belt contains the world’s richest borate deposits, including those found in Turkey, which are of similar genesis to the Serbia borate deposits.
On behalf of the Board of Directors,
