Arizona Metals Corp. (TSXV:AMC, OTCQX:AZMCF) (the “Company” or
“Arizona Metals”) announces that it has qualified to trade on the
OTCQX® Best Market. Arizona Metals Corp. upgraded to OTCQX from the
OTCQB® Venture Market. In addition, the Company has secured DTC
eligibility by The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") for electronic
settlement and transfer of its common shares in the United
States.
Arizona Metals Corp. begins trading today on OTCQX under the
symbol “AZMCF.” U.S. investors can find current financial
disclosure and Real-Time Level 2 quotes for the company on
https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/AZMCF/overview.
The OTCQX Market is designed for established, investor-focused
U.S. and international companies. To qualify for OTCQX, companies
must meet high financial standards, follow best practice corporate
governance, and demonstrate compliance with applicable securities
laws. Graduating to the OTCQX Market from the OTCQB Market marks an
important milestone for companies, enabling them to demonstrate
their qualifications and build visibility among U.S. investors.
DTC is a subsidiary of the Depository Trust & Clearing
Corporation and manages the electronic clearing and settlement of
publicly traded companies. Securities that are eligible to be
electronically cleared and settled through the DTC are considered
"DTC eligible". This reduces costs and accelerates the settlement
process for investors and brokers, allowing the stock to be traded
over a much wider selection of brokerage firms by coming into
compliance with their requirements.
Marc Pais, CEO, commented “We are pleased to trade on the OTCQX
Market, which will provide increased accessibility and liquidity
for U.S. investors. The timing coincides well with our Phase 2
drill program at the Kay Mine, which began two weeks ago. We expect
to release a steady flow of drill results over the coming months.
We are expecting to close an over-subscribed private placement of
CDN$10 million later this week, which will put us in a very strong
financial position to complete an aggressive drill program. We will
issue another press release on closing of the financing.”
About Arizona Metals Corp
Arizona Metals Corp owns 100% of the Kay Mine Property in
Yavapai County, which is located on a combination of patented and
BLM claims totaling 1,300 acres that are not subject to any
royalties. An historic estimate by Exxon Minerals in 1982 reported
a “proven and probable reserve of 6.4 million short tons at a grade
of 2.2% copper, 2.8 g/t gold, 3.03% zinc, and 55 g/t silver.” The
historic estimate at the Kay Mine was reported by Exxon Minerals in
1982. (Fellows, M.L., 1982, Kay Mine massive sulphide deposit:
Internal report prepared for Exxon Minerals Company)
*The Kay Mine historic estimate has not been verified as a
current mineral resource. None of the key assumptions, parameters,
and methods used to prepare the historic estimate were reported,
and no resource categories were used. Significant data compilation,
re-drilling and data verification may be required by a Qualified
Person before the historic estimate can be verified and upgraded to
be a current mineral resource. A Qualified Person has not done
sufficient work to classify it as a current mineral resource, and
Arizona Metals is not treating the historic estimate as a current
mineral resource.
The Kay Mine is a steeply dipping VMS deposit that has been
defined from a depth of 60 m to at least 900 m. It is open for
expansion on strike and at depth.
The Company also owns 100% of the Sugarloaf Peak Property, in La
Paz County, which is located on 4,400 acres of BLM claims.
Sugarloaf is a heap-leach, open-pit target and has a historic
estimate of “100 million tons containing 1.5 million ounces gold”
at a grade of 0.5 g/t (Dausinger, N.E., 1983, Phase 1 Drill Program
and Evaluation of Gold-Silver Potential, Sugarloaf Peak Project,
Quartzsite, Arizona: Report for Westworld Inc.)
The historic estimate at the Sugarloaf Peak Property was
reported by Westworld Resources in 1983. The historic estimate has
not been verified as a current mineral resource. None of the key
assumptions, parameters, and methods used to prepare the historic
estimate were reported, and no resource categories were used.
Significant data compilation, re-drilling and data verification may
be required by a Qualified Person before the historic estimate can
be verified and upgraded to a current mineral resource. A Qualified
Person has not done sufficient work to classify it as a current
mineral resource, and Arizona Metals is not treating the historic
estimate as a current mineral resource.
The Qualified Person who reviewed and approved the technical
disclosure in this release is David Smith, CPG.
Quality Assurance/Quality Control
All of Arizona Metals’ drill sample assay results have been
independently monitored through a quality assurance/quality control
(“QA/QC”) protocol which includes the insertion of blind standard
reference materials and blanks at regular intervals. Logging and
sampling were completed at Arizona Metals’ core handling facilities
located in Anthem and Black Canyon City, Arizona. Drill core was
diamond sawn on site and half drill-core samples were securely
transported to ALS Laboratories’ (“ALS”) sample preparation
facility in Tucson, Arizona. Sample pulps were sent to ALS’s labs
in Vancouver, Canada, for analysis.
Gold content was determined by fire assay of a 30-gram charge
with ICP finish (ALS method Au-AA23). Silver and 32 other elements
were analyzed by ICP methods with four-acid digestion (ALS method
ME-ICP61a). Over-limit samples for Au, Ag, Cu, and Zn were
determined by ore-grade analyses Au-GRA21, Ag-OG62, Cu-OG62, and
Zn-OG62, respectively.
ALS Laboratories is independent of Arizona Metals Corp. and its
Vancouver facility is ISO 17025 accredited. ALS also performed its
own internal QA/QC procedures to assure the accuracy and integrity
of results. Parameters for ALS’ internal and Arizona Metals’
external blind quality control samples were acceptable for the
samples analyzed. Arizona Metals is not aware of any drilling,
sampling, recovery, or other factors that could materially affect
the accuracy or reliability of the data referred to herein.
