TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Nov. 19, 2009) - Canadian Orebodies Inc. (TSX VENTURE:CO)("Orebodies") is pleased to announce that it has expanded the previously announced work program on its newly acquired Lithium/Rare Metals properties (the "Properties"). Due to better than expected weather conditions Orebodies has been able to extend and expand the work programs which it previously announced in Orebodies Press Release dated November 9, 2009.
The expanded program will include mechanical stripping on the Falcon property, focusing on the West deposit, to better expose and trace the zone which will be followed up with systematic channel sampling. Also, a third crew has been mobilized to the Greenbush property to commence detailed geological mapping and sampling. Having this additional crew made available means that work is now able to commence on all 5 of the newly acquired Properties, which will allow for the collection of information that will enable Orebodies to continue with its exploration and evaluation of the Properties over the winter months.
In order to complete the purchase of 100% interest in the Properties (subject to a 2% NSR retained by the vendor, 50% of which can be purchased by Orebodies for $1,000,000), Orebodies is required to issue an aggregate amount of 1,600,000 common shares of Orebodies and issue 1,600,000 share purchase warrants, each warrant entitling the holder to acquire one common share of Orebodies at an exercise price of $0.15 per share for a period of two years from closing. More information regarding the Properties can be found in Orebodies Press Release dated October 22, 2009.
Closing of the transaction remains subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange and the execution of a definitive purchase agreement.
