VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 17, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pegasus Resources Inc. (TSX-V: PEGA; Frankfurt – OQS2, OTC/Pink Sheet symbol SLTFF) (the “Company” or “Pegasus”) is pleased to inform shareholders that it is continuing to review several Green Energy opportunities consistent with the company’s mineral exploration focus. Projects under review are within North American jurisdictions favorable for mineral exploration and development. Opportunities under review consist of Lithium, Copper, Nickel and/or Uranium. Our technical team is presently conducting a review of multiple opportunities and intends on providing further updates after the due diligence is completed.
Charles Desjardins, President and CEO of Pegasus Resources Inc. states that “with the company being fully funded and with lithium, copper, nickel and uranium being in great demand and for the foreseeable future, we will explore the possibility of acquiring additional opportunities if they meet our criteria of enhancing value to the company and its shareholders.
We also look forward to a busy field season at our Golden, BC area properties, such as our Vertebrae Ridge Project, where we believe the extensive, high-grades of copper mineralization are indicative of a unique, high-potential discovery.”
The sale of the Confederation Lake properties (see News Release 06 January,2021) is almost complete. The $500,000 cash payment has been received and we are awaiting the final transfer of $1,250,000 worth of Trillium Gold Mines Inc. shares.
Pegasus remains focused on exploring the Company’s Golden Project which contains the Gold Mountain and Vertebrae Ridge projects.
