("Rame" or the "Company")
Consultancy Agreement with Goldcorp in Argentina
Rame Energy plc (AIM: RAME), the independent power producer and
power project developer, is pleased to announce it has executed a
consultancy agreement with Goldcorp Inc, a leading senior gold
producer, to provide services over a period of seven months for the
development of a possible wind farm at Goldcorp's Cerro Negro
mining project.
The 25,000 hectares Cerro Negro mining property is located on
the low level Patagonian plains in the southern Argentinean
province of Santa Cruz, at an elevation of approximately 600m above
sea level.
The mine is located less than 100km West of Rame's Cerro Coihue
wind farm and could benefit from a highly energetic wind climate
similar to Cerro Coihue and typical for the Patagonian region.
The agreement with Goldcorp, which may lead to further
cooperation during the construction and operational phase of the
possible wind farm, demonstrates Rame's continuing strong
involvement with the mining industry and its ability to quickly
respond to emerging Latin American opportunities outside of its
core operations in Chile. It also represents the Company's first
steps in the much anticipated renewable energy transformation of
Argentina.
CEO Tim Adams said "We have significant experience of working
with the mining industry in both Chile and Argentina to provide
reliable, renewable energy for remote projects. We are delighted to
be working with Goldcorp and very pleased to return to Argentina as
the country looks forward to increasing economic development and to
expanding its renewable energy sector."
