PLAN Sells Private Company Shares to Finalize Focus on BC Assets


VANCOUVER, BC, Nov. 24, 2020 /CNW/ - Progressive Planet Solutions Inc. (TSXV: PLAN) ("PLAN" or "Progressive Planet"), an emerging leader in reducing the carbon footprint of cement products using natural pozzolans, is pleased to announce it has sold and optioned a combined total of 10 million of its 10.5 million shares of Snow Lake Resources.

The sale and option agreements were made with two arms-length purchasers. The first sale was for 1,700,000 shares at $0.04 per share for a total of $68,000 and includes an option granted by PLAN entitling the same party to purchase an additional 4,966,666 shares at $0.04 per share until May 11, 2021. The second sale was for 1,250,000 shares at $0.04 per share for a total of $50,000 and includes an option granted by PLAN to such party to purchase an additional 2,083,334 shares until August 14, 2021. As at the date of this news release, PLAN has received $116,000 and will receive another $284,000 if the remaining shares are purchased under the option agreements.

The sale of this non-core asset is the final step in focusing PLAN on developing its portfolio of assets in the Kamloops area of BC. The map below shows the location of the 3 mineral properties and the comminution plant.

PLAN intends to use the funds from this sale to purchase larger equipment for its Comminution Plant in Spallumcheen, BC, which in turn will support revenue growth. The comminution plant finished commissioning in late August 2020 and is producing and shipping product on an ongoing basis. The plant currently has a backlog of orders from customers.

"The Snow Lake Resources shares represented a minority interest in a company that is focused on minerals outside our area of interest. This asset was recorded on our balance sheet at a value of $135,388. If the options are exercised, we will receive a total of $400,000 for 10 million of these shares. Our sole focus going forward is to develop our pozzolan and metals properties in BC while growing our bricks and mortar business of making rock powders," stated Steve Harpur, CEO.
