MONTREAL, July 5, 2016 /CNW/ - MONARQUES GOLD CORP. ("Monarques" or the "Corporation") (TSX-V: MQR) (FRANKFURT: MR7) is pleased to announce that it has signed a letter of intent (the "Letter of intent") to acquire the Beacon property from 9265-9911 Québec Inc. (the "Vendor"). The property consists of a metallurgical processing plant, tailings management ponds, underground installations, a 500-metre deep shaft, a mechanical shop and all mineral rights attached to the transaction, namely one mining concession, one mining lease and 11 mineral claims totalling 180 hectares (the "Beacon property"). The facilities are approximately 60 kilometres from the Croinor Gold property ("Croinor"), and near other properties of Monarques, and other mining companies in the Abitibi-Temiscamingue region (see the map).

The transaction

Monarques has until August 31, 2016, or such other date as the parties may agree, to proceed with the acquisition of the Beacon property in consideration of a $3,500,000 payment, as follows:

The Corporation will not pay any interest on the balance payable during the first two years following the closing of the transaction. Thereafter, the amount payable will bear interest at 10% per annum, payable semi-annually.

The processing plant (see the photo) is located on Route 117, at the entrance to Val-d'Or, near Chemin du Lac Sabourin (see the map). The 750-tpd capacity mill has been given a certificate of authorization by the Ministère du Développement durable, de l'Environnement et de la Lutte contre les changements climatiques (the "Ministry") for the processing of 1,800,000 tonnes of tailings, equivalent to approximately nine years of mineral processing at full capacity. This capacity could be sufficient to process all the Croinor ore; a prefeasibility report (read the report) with an effective date of October 7, 2014 and refiled on SEDAR on October 30, 2014 provides for the production of more than 550,000 tonnes of ore over a five-year period. Custom milling and the future development of other Monarques projects are among the options being considered in the various development scenarios for the Corporation.

"Monarques is extremely pleased to have entered into this transaction to acquire the Beacon mill. This is a very opportunistic acquisition for the Corporation," stated Jean-Marc Lacoste, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Not only does this acquisition provides Monarques with a tremendous exploration land package of over 180 hectares including 11 mineral claims, one mining concession and one mining lease, it also provides the Corporation with a mill at a price which is at a fraction of its replacement cost. Owning this mill will insure that the Corporation will be able to process its own ore at such time in the future when it's fully permitted Croinor property is ready to go into production."

The Canadian National ("CN") railway line is less than 500 metres away from the Beacon property, providing Monarques with easy access to the rail network. This will make custom milling accessible to other mining projects in the Abitibi-Temiscamingue region, as well as those in northern Ontario and the Chibougamau region. Monarques has been in talks with CN, the town of Senneterre and the La Vallée-de-l'Or RCM for the past several weeks to assess the various scenarios for rail transport of the Croinor ore, which would minimize the Croinor project's carbon footprint.

Hypothec

The capital and interest will be secured by a first-ranking hypothec on the Beacon property mill.

Principal repayment delay option

The Corporation may, at its option, delay repayment of any of the first three Deferred Payments by giving written notice to the Vendor.

In the event that a Deferred Payment is delayed in accordance with this option, such repayment shall be subject to a premium of 20% and become due for payment in three equal amounts on the 1^st business day of the 48^th, 54^th and 60^th month following the closing date. This option applies to both capital payments on the mill and the rehabilitation plan payments and are all starting on the 30^th month of the closing or the 48^th month depending if the option is exercised.

Rehabilitation plan

Monarques will reimburse to the Vendor the mill rehabilitation plan cash deposits that the Vendor has already paid to the Ministry, as follows:

According to a preliminary report prepared for Monarques by WSP Inc. of Val-d'Or in November 2014, the mill requires between $2M to $3M in upgrade work.

Exploration potential

The old Beacon mine lies on the southeast contact of the Bourlamaque batholith, which hosts a significant number of mines, including the Sigma, Lamaque, Belmoral, Dumont, Lac Herbin and Beaufort mines. Both the geological context and the results of previous work indicate that this property is an excellent exploration play.

Terms of the agreement

The agreement is subject to:

The technical and scientific content of this press release has been reviewed and approved by Donald Trudel, P.Geo., B.Sc., the Corporation's Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101.

The blossoming butterfly buffet of goldenrod, swamp sunflower, and sneezeweed along roadsides, across fields, and in gardens signals fall migration time for monarch butterflies. During spring and summer, monarch butterflies breed throughout the U.S. and southern Canada.

In fall, the eastern monarch population migrates to Mexico. Some travel a distance of 3,000 miles. These long distance daytime migrants consume a diet of sugar, amino acids and fatty acids obtained by nectaring on flowers. Monarchs gain weight as their body converts nectar to fat. The fat is stored in their abdomen and becomes the energy used to fuel the flight to Mexico. More importantly, fat is the only reserve food available to them during a five month fast from November to March while overwintering in the Oyamel forests, a mountain habitat of central Mexico. The fat reserve must also fuel the monarch’s spring migration north to Texas as they develop their reproductive organs, breed, lay eggs and then die. The eggs laid become the first of four generations to journey north annually.

Gardeners can provide a fall feast of high nectar plants for monarchs. It takes timing plants to bloom when monarchs pass through the Midlands. The following selection of native perennials bloom late summer through fall in South Carolina: •New England aster—Symphyotrichum novae-angliae •False boneset—Brickellia eupatorioides •New York Ironweed—Vernonia noveborancensis •Giant Ironweed—Vernonia gigantea •Blue mistflower—Conoclinium coelestinum •Obedient plant— Physostegia virginiana •Bitter Sneezeweed—Helenium amarum •Swamp sunflower— Helianthus augustifolius •Woodland sunflower— Helianthus divaricatus •Camphorweed—Pluchea odorata

Two non-native nectar plants visited by monarchs in the midlands are Lantana camara and Tithonia rotundifolia.

In fall, milkweed, the monarch’s larval host plant, is senescing. But native milkweed is a perennial and returns in spring for the life cycle of the monarch to continue. While the adult monarch is a generalist when it comes to nectar sources, the larvae are specialists requiring milkweed for metamorphosis.

Of the 75 species of milkweed native to North America, 20 are found in South Carolina. Four milkweed species sold as seed at everwilde.com and ernstseed.com are: •Asclepias tuberosa—Butterfly Milkweed •Asclepias incarnata— Swamp Milkweed •Asclepias syriaca—Common Milkweed •Asclepias verticillata— Whorled Milkweed

North American native plant societies are a reliable source for monarch nectar and host plants. The Midlands Chapter of the South Carolina Native Plant Society is hosting a native plant sale October 14 and 15 at Roberts Mills House. Since monarchs inhabit and migrate through the Midlands, home gardeners, K-16 schools, businesses, city and state road crews, public gardens, and nursing homes can add native nectar plants to the monarch butterfly’s diet for feasting, flying, and fasting.

Each year, monarch butterflies travel more than 2,000 mi (3,218 km) one-way in search of a better climate. In the fall, they change their location from colder Canada and the US to sunny Mexico. And in the spring, they return to the north. In both cases, Asheville and the surrounding area are known as a usual stop of their journey. Around 300 million of them stay in North Carolina for a few weeks to enjoy their favorite milkweed and other nectar plants.

There are many North Carolina locations where you can watch butterflies, but the best of them are hidden in the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Great Smoky Mountains. Hike to the Orchard at Altapass, Pounding Mill Overlook, Cherry Cove Overlook, Mount Pisgah, or Black Balsam. At these places, you are guaranteed to see butterflies in their comfortable humid environment.

Butterflies occur in the state twice a year: from May to July when they return from wintering and from mid-September to early October when they fly south.

Practical info

Monarch butterfly migration through North Carolina occurs twice a year, from May to July when they return from wintering, and from mid-September to early October when they fly south. Around 300 million Monarch butterflies pass through North Carolina, stopping to rest, feed, and mate before continuing their journey.

The Monarch butterfly migration can be observed along the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Great Smoky Mountains in North Carolina, where the butterflies fly at the treetop level. Some popular spots to see them include the Orchard at Altapass, Pounding Mill Overlook, Cherry Cove Overlook, Mount Pisgah, and Black Balsam.

Upon arrival in North Carolina, Monarch butterflies stay for a few weeks, feeding on their favorite milkweed plants, one of the only plants Monarch caterpillars feed on, and other nectar plants. They then continue their journey, either north or south, depending on the season and weather patterns.

During their migration, Monarch butterflies feed primarily on milkweed plants in North Carolina. This state provides the butterflies with a sufficient supply of milkweed plants, allowing them to sustain their journey. Additionally, they also feed on other plants, such as goldenrod, thistle, and ironweeds, which give them the energy required to continue migratory flights.

Around 300 million Monarch butterflies migrate through North Carolina each year, representing one of the most critical stopovers for Monarchs. Although the actual figure may depend on weather patterns, this location is an ideal setting for the butterflies to rest and feed before completing their long journey north or south.

Something wrong?

ESG investment firm Monarch Private Capital has closed on $23 million in low-income housing tax credit equity for the development of Bridge Creek Pointe, a three-building, 90-unit garden-style affordable housing community located at 1 Oak Forest Road in Spartanburg, S.C. Monarch is partnering with Prestwick Development for the project’s planning. The community is expected to open in April 2024.

Bridge Creek Pointe’s full build-out

After its construction finishes, Bridge Creek Pointe will offer one-, two- and three-bedroom living arrangements for renters earing 60 percent or below the area median income. Units will feature full kitchens, as well as in-house washers and dryers. Community amenities include a common room, fitness center and business center, with the buildings connected through landscaped courtyards. The development is expected to substantially contribute to the city’s economy by creating 145 jobs and generating more than $10.5 million in revenue in its first year, according to data from the National Association of Home Builders.

The community will be located within 5 miles of central Spartanburg. Situated along interstates 85 and 26, Bridge Creek Pointe has quick access to much of Spartanburg County, which hosts seven universities, as well as industrial and manufacturing facilities from high-profile companies including BMW Manufacturing, Michelin and Adidas.

Monarch’s Palmetto State affordable projects

Bridge Creek Pointe marks Monarch’s latest investment in affordable housing communities around South Carolina. At present, the Palmetto State is experiencing an 85,571-unit shortage of homes, according to data from the National Low Income Housing Coalition. Such a shortage has been exacerbated by a backlog in the state’s pipeline due to low supply and labor costs.

Monarch’s capitalization of Bridge Creek Pointe is the firm’s latest in a series of investments around the state. In August 2022, the firm negotiated the $40 million funding of Gateway at Cross Creek, a 168-unit community in the town of Central. In April of that year, the company provided further low-income housing tax credits for construction of The Villages at Congaree Pointe, a 240-unit community in Columbia.
