Section 1 REGISTRANTS BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS
Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
We have entered into an option and joint venture agreement with Triex Minerals Corporation (Triex) on our two mineral exploration properties located in the Athabasca Basin area of Northern Saskatchewan. Triex is a Canadian junior exploration company focused on uranium in North America.
Triex can earn a 60% interest in the Cochrane River property by making payments to Uranerz of $75,000 and spending $1,500,000 on the property by May 1, 2008. After completing the 60% earn-in phase, Triex can elect to earn an additional 10% in the project by spending an additional $1,500,000 by November 1, 2009.
The option agreement is subject to the terms and conditions of the underlying agreement with Ubex Capital Inc. (Ubex) dated April 26, 2005 and amended October 20, 2005. We acquired an undivided 100% right, title, and interest in two mineral exploration properties located in Northern Saskatchewan with a combined total area of 67,480 ha (166,747 acres). Ubex. is 100% owned by Dennis Higgs, a director of the Company. Ubex will retain a royalty of 2% on the property and will split the royalty (1% each) with Darcy Higgs, who is a greater than 5% shareholder. The October 25, 2005 amendment allows us to purchase one-half of the 2% royalty from Ubex for the sum of $1,000,000, leaving Ubex a royalty of 1%.
