Press Release
August 27, 2010
WorldVest dba Iron Mining Group Completes Acquisition of Chilean
Iron Ore Company, Chile Inversiones de Minerales, Ltd.
Company Assets Consist of Iron Ore Reserves and Port Development Agreements
New York, NY August 27, 2010 -
WorldVest, Inc. (OTCBB: WOVT) dba. Iron Mining Group ("IMG" or the "Company"), announced that it has completed the acquisition of Chile Inversiones de Minerales Ltd., a Chilean mineral investment and mining company ("CIM"). CIM will serve as an operating subsidiary to IMG, allowing IMG the ability to consolidate various iron ore mining opportunities along with complementary port and logistics infrastructure in Chile.
As a result of the CIM acquisition, IMG has instantly acquired a portfolio of iron ore reserves within Chile's second and fourth regions, as well as critical contracts to utilize midsized regional ports adjacent to its reserves. The acquisition of these reserves allows for the immediate production and export of iron ore against the Company's existing contracts, resulting in a near-instant revenue ramp for IMG on a consolidated basis. In total, based on preliminary geological surveys, the acquired reserves are estimated to contain in excess of 100,000,000 metric tons of recoverable iron ore within the surface "iron-sands" alone. Further estimates indicate a strong potential for exponentially more reserves in the unexplored mountain and bedrock formations of CIM's Atacama Desert Project.
In addition to its existing reserves, CIM has additional iron ore properties either under contract, letter of intent or in advanced contract negotiations, which, once completed, will substantially boost the overall reserves. Furthermore, CIM is currently engaged in discussions regarding potential investments into certain port development opportunities throughout Chile with the goal of building port infrastructure, thereby increasing its export capacity to meet its growing contract demands. IMG believes that by acquiring new mining properties, coupled with the existing CIM reserves and the development of increased port capacity, the Company can ultimately grow its annual iron ore production and export capacity in excess 25,000,000 metric tons. Such production has the potential to push annual revenues toward $3.5 billion based on today's CIF iron ore prices and make IMG a major player in the global iron ore marketplace.
"By acquiring CIM, we have positioned Iron Mining Group to immediately enter iron ore production in this current year and begin generating a substantial revenue ramp by delivering the first shipments against our existing Chinese sales contracts", said IMG Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Garrett K. Krause. "We are extremely pleased to be situated as a future leader within the underdeveloped Chilean iron ore export market and we are confident that, with our current iron ore projects and through the direction of our highly experienced and specialized management team both in Chile and the U.S., Iron Mining Group is approaching a period of rapid growth and prosperity".
