  • 25 Sept 2025 - Chilean lithium brine developer - now also Chilean gold explorer - Wealth Minerals (TSXV:WML) announced a letter of intent (LOI) to acquire 100%-interest in the past-producing Andacollo Oro gold project in Chile with vast historic gold resources of 2.02Moz @ 0.48 g/t (M&I) and 5.06Moz @ 0.45 g/t (Inferred). Past production was 1.12Moz via open pit heap leach from 1998 to 2018 at 20,000 tpd which produced up to 135,000 ozpa, and permits are reported to remain in place (mining rights, land title, and water rights). Purchase price is 12.5m WML shares (post-7-to-1-share-consolidation) or 87.5m shares preconsolidation shares which had closed at 17c/sh yesterday (24 Sept) for a value C$14.9m. Although this purchase price excludes deferred payments to be assumed by WML from the Chillean subsidiary, which are set at US$30m over 4 years, up to $7m of which can be made in WML shares. Including these 87.5m of pre-consolidation shares to be issued, and including annother 41.67m shares to be issued in a concurrent non-brokered private placement also included in the announcemnet (at 12c or 29% discount to prior close 17c, with full warrant at 18c for 2 years with right to accelerate exercise period over 36c), but excluding future dilution from deferred aggregate payments of US$30m is cash and shares, WML basic shares will increase by ~35% to 491.53m shares. WML stock gained +12% today (25 Sept, intraday) to pro-forma market cap C$93m (excluding future dilution from US$30 deferred payments) or US$6.0/oz AuEq resource (11.2Moz AuEq including 7.1Moz Au and 1.4Mt LCE) - an 85% discount to new 90-company gold explorer peer group median US$42/oz AuEq. And if a cautious investor wanted to be clever and conservatively assume the deferred payment of US$30m of ~C$41.8m is covered with 12c stock (in-line with concurrent C$5m cap raise), basic shares would rise to ~840m sh and market cap/oz would still only be US$10/oz AuEq - still a 75% discount to gold explorer median US$42/oz.
