Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 16, 2021) - InZinc Mining Ltd. (TSXV: IZN) ("InZinc" or the "Company") is pleased that, further to the news release of December 22, 2020, it has entered into an agreement (the "Option Agreement") with American West Metals Limited ("American West"), a private Australian company, pursuant to which InZinc granted to a wholly-owned subsidiary of American West an option ("Option") to earn a 100% interest in InZinc's West Desert project ("West Desert") located in Utah, USA. The Option Agreement is subject to, among other things, shareholder and regulatory approval. "The proposed option agreement will benefit InZinc with improved financial flexibility and exposure to a broader, active portfolio of North American zinc and copper projects. The proposed shareholding in American West will provide InZinc continuing leverage at West Desert as a planned multi-year drill campaign to advance to prefeasibility is undertaken as well as exposure to activities at the Storm copper project, which American West recently optioned from Aston Bay Holdings Ltd. The financial terms offered by the proposed agreement will further provide InZinc the flexibility to advance, including drilling, the near surface discoveries and large untested targets at the prospective Indy Sedex project in BC, and assess new opportunities," said Wayne Hubert, CEO of InZinc.
