Silver Valley Metals Announces Sale of Ranger-Page Project in Northern Idaho

Silver Valley Metals Corp. (TSXV: SILV) (OTCQB: SVMFF) has signed an asset purchase agreement with Silver Dollar Resources Incorporated. Silver Dollar will acquire the Ranger-Page Project in Shoshone County, Idaho, USA.

The board considered moving the company forward effectively with minimal capital dilution. The sale to Silver Dollar was seen as the most strategic option.

Silver Valley can remain financed without share dilution, retain royalties, and participate in the project’s upside with an approximate 12% equity stake in Silver Dollar. The company’s equity in Silver Dollar also offers potential benefits from Silver Dollar’s flagship La Joya project in Mexico.
