Mineral concession renewal. In March, Aurania filed all appropriate documentation for the renewal of its 42 mineral exploration concessions in Ecuador. The company also filed a request with the government to enter into an agreement for payment of the associated annual concession fees. Aurania’s request was accepted, and the concessions remain in good standing while an agreement is reached. Management anticipates the process could take a couple of months to complete.
The plan forward. Maintaining Aurania’s full concession package is a significant step forward because it will allow the company to advance exploration activities dependent on funding availability and provide time to secure a joint venture or strategic partner to advance the project. Aurania’s management attended the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada Convention in March which provided an opportunity for Aurania’s management to meet with government officials from Ecuador and potential strategic partners. Given the backdrop of strong metals prices and the significant mineral endowment potential offered by Aurania’s property package, we believe it is only a matter of time before the company secures a partner.
