Business Wire
Vista Gold Corp. (NYSE American and TSX: VGZ) (“Vista” or the
“Company”) today announced that the term of its agreement with the
Northern Territory Government of Australia pertaining to the Mt
Todd gold project (“Mt Todd” or the “Project”) has been extended to
December 31, 2029. The Company holds the exclusive right to develop
Mt Todd.
On May 25, 2023, the Company signed an amendment to its
agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Northern Territory Government
of Australia (the “NT Government”) providing for the extension of
the term of the Agreement to December 31, 2029 and including the
option for an additional three-year extension. Pursuant to the
Agreement, Vista continues to manage the Mt Todd site and fulfill
its environmental, cultural and social stewardship commitments. The
Company also continues to have no present liability for the
condition of the site prior to its involvement in 2006. Vista, at
its sole option, may elect to proceed with the development of the
Project by giving notice to the NT Government, which then results
in the transfer of the NT Government-owned assets at Mt Todd and
all pre-existing historical rehabilitation liabilities for the
Project from the NT Government to the Company.
Frederick H. Earnest, President and CEO of Vista Gold, stated,
“This extension of our Agreement with the NT Government is a
reflection of the strong relationship that has developed over years
of working together with the NT Government, the Jawoyn people, and
other Project stakeholders. We remain committed to responsible
environmental management, protecting sacred and culturally
significant sites, and developing Mt Todd in a way and at the time
that maximizes the benefit for our shareholders and stakeholders in
the Northern Territory.”
