Canadian mineral exploration company Oberon Uranium has entered a deal to acquire all issued and outstanding shares of Carbon Markets.
Oberon will issue 17.6 million Class A common shares at C$0.05 each, pursuant to the share purchase deal, culminating in a total purchase value of C$880,000 ($648,318).
Currently, Carbon holds three mineral claims totalling 365ha in Saskatchewan, Canada.
These claims are located around the historic Leonard Mine, near the St. Micheal Mine workings and adjacent to the former Smitty Mine.
The region is known for its pitchblende deposits, which form in various geological settings including veins, shears, breccias and open-spaced fillings.
Historic sampling in the north-eastern part of the claims has yielded high uranium values, with reports of 1.6% and 3.02% triuranium octoxide from the Aurora Yellowknife Mines Uranium Showing No. 44.
