Genco Settles All Outstanding Litigation
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - March 25, 2009) - Genco Resources Ltd. (TSX:GGC) reports that it has settled all outstanding disputes and litigation with Andover Ventures Inc., Chief Consolidated Mining Company and W. Gordon Blankstein.
Genco's Acting CEO and Co-Chairman Robert Gardner states, "We are pleased that, with these disputes behind us, we can now move forward with financing and developing our core silver/gold asset in Mexico. In these uncertain economic times, precious metals are a highly desirable sector of the mining business."
The settlements stipulate a payment to Genco by Andover of CDN $5 Million within 18 months, with interest payable quarterly at US prime plus 2% (subject to a minimum rate of 4% per year), for the purchase of all shares of Chief owned by Genco, and the transfer of 2,000,000 Common Shares of Andover owned by Genco.
