TITAN IRON ORE CORP. ENTERS INTO LETTER OF INTENT TO PURCHASE WYOMING IRON COMPLEX
TUCSON, Arizona, April 16, 2013 -- Titan Iron Ore Corp. ("Titan", "we", the "Company") (OTCBB:TFER) is pleased to announce that through a Binding Letter of Intent ("LOI"), Titan has agreed to purchase the Sunrise Iron Mining Complex ("Sunrise") from New Sunrise, LLC, for a price of $12 million. Sunrise is an iron project located in Platte County, Wyoming, consisting of fee land and patented mining claims aggregating approximately 1400 acres. Sunrise was owned and operated between the late 1890's and 1980 by Colorado Fuel and Iron ("CF&l"), and iron concentrates from Sunrise were shipped via rail to CF&I's blast furnace in Pueblo, Colorado to make steel. Currently, New Sunrise operates the property by mining low grade iron dumps and tailings which are sold to area cement producers.
The LOl provides that Titan will pay New Sunrise a non-refundable deposit of $25,000, and Titan shall have 180 days to conduct due diligence investigations of the property. The parties shall enter into a formal Purchase Agreement and Closing shall occur no later than 60 days after the end of the due diligence period. Closing is subject to financing and other customary conditions.
Andrew Brodkey, President of Titan, commented: "Titan is very excited to have secured an agreement to acquire the historic Sunrise Iron Mine. This mine was a captive property of CF&I for over 75 years and there is a wealth of information available about the site. In addition, the property is currently producing revenue, with the sale of lower grade, mined iron contained in dumps and tailings to the cement industry. Titan will conduct due diligence on the property, including mapping, surveying, sampling, drilling, metallurgical work, and environmental and legal studies. If the results are positive, we intend to secure financing to close the acquisition."
