Battery Mineral Resources Corp. (TSXV: BMR) (OTCQB: BTRMF) (“Battery” or “BMR” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has closed a sale transaction on an industrial real estate property located at 7506 43rd Street Leduc, Alberta (the “Property”), previously held by BMR’s 100%-owned ESI Energy Services, Inc., which operates in the equipment rental and sales sector, servicing pipeline and renewable energy companies (the “Transaction”).

The Transaction raised net proceeds of approximately C$2.0 million, after the repayment of all indebtedness on the Property and the payment of transaction costs. Proceeds from the Transaction will be applied towards advancing the Punitaqui copper mine towards a re-start and initial production, and for additional working capital.

The Company’s Punitaqui Mining Complex, a past producing copper-gold mine located in the Coquimbo region of Chile. The Company is currently negotiating with interested parties to supply the balance of the re-start capital via additional non-dilutive avenues.

Battery CEO Martin Kostuik states: “We are very pleased to announce the closing of the sale for the non-core Leduc, Alberta real estate property. Through the process of optimizing ESI’s business model, we found that operating the shop in Leduc was not accretive to the business. ESI was no longer using it and a sale process was initiated. The transaction represents a creative, non-dilutive means for BMR to raise capital, which we will apply in the near-term towards preparing for the re-start of operations at Punitaqui. We look forward to sharing ongoing updates on additional financing initiatives and other key milestones, as we advance towards restarting mine operations followed by copper production and positive cash-flow at Punitaqui.”
