Pursuant to a purchase agreement dated January 04, 2019, the Company acquired certain real property and mineral interests in certain real property with respect to the Billali Mine, a patented lode mining claim located in the Summit Mountains, Grant County, New Mexico, and additional mining claims and interests (or rights thereto) in the Steeple Rock Mining area and Jim Crow Imperial Mine, both located in the Summit Mountains, Grant County, New Mexico.  In connection therewith, Santa Fe will acquire surface, mining, and access rights, water rights, and rights to deposit waste materials.   The purchase price for all rights and interests conveyed will be $2,500,000 for the Billali Mine and $7,500,000 for the Jim Crow Imperial Mine, for an aggregate purchase price of $10,000,000.  This purchase price is payable under the following terms: (i) $50,000 upon closing (of which $25,000 was previously paid in connection with the execution of the letter of intent); (ii) $100,000 on or before January 31, 2019; (iii) $100,000 on or before February 28, 2019; (iv) 20 monthly payments of $50,000 commencing six months from the acquisition date; and (v) continuing on a monthly basis thereafter, 50 monthly payments of $175,000.
