Notes to editors:
Stratex International Plc is an AIM-quoted exploration and development company currently focussing on gold and base metal opportunities inΒ TurkeyΒ andΒ Ethiopia. InΒ Turkey, the Company's total resources stand at circa 1 million oz of gold (combined oxide and sulphide gold) and approximately 3.2 million oz of silver.
Stratex's proven strategy is to discover and develop new projects by focussed low-cost exploration, thus adding maximum value prior to optioning/joint venturing or selling on to a dedicated mining company. In this respect it now has four key associations:
A partnership with NTF, a technically capable and well-financed Turkish company, to rapidly develop the 542,000 oz oxide gold resources present at the AltΔ±ntepe and Inlice projects inΒ Turkey.
An option/joint venture agreement with Centerra Gold Inc. to explore and develop the ΓksΓΌt project, aΒ high-sulphidationΒ gold discovery located inΒ Central Anatolia inΒ Turkey.Β
A joint venture agreement with Teck Resources of Canada, a major shareholder in Stratex, over the Hasancelebi project, aΒ high-sulphidationΒ gold project in centralΒ Turkey.
A joint venture withΒ PLUS-quoted exploration companyΒ Sheba Exploration (UK) plc to earn-in to an initial 60% of the prospective 50 sq km Shehagne gold project inΒ EthiopiaΒ and explore targets in northernΒ EthiopiaΒ on a 70:30 joint venture basis. It also holds aΒ 5.45% shareholding in Sheba Exploration (UK) plc.
