The return of occasional series today features a NR published after the bell Friday (always a bad sign) by Inca One Resources Corp (IO.v).
VANCOUVER, Sept. 21, 2012 /CNW/ – INCA ONE RESOURCES CORP. (TSXV: IO) (“Inca One”) or (“the Company”) would like to announce receipt from Minera Huaquillas an update on the progress being made with community members regarding public participation mechanisms and the advancement of exploration work on its Las Huaquillas gold-copper project in Peru.
Requirements Related to Public Participation
The Company continues to develop community partnerships as it works to complete the public participation workshop required for approval of mining projects by Peru’s Ministry of Energy and Mines (the “Ministry”). Seven DIA presentations regarding proposed exploration activities at the Las Huaquillas Project were delivered to the area’s surface land holders and coffee farmers between July 14th and August 19th, 2012. The DIA is an “Environmental Impact Statement” outlining a plan for advanced exploration activities on Peruvian mineral exploration projects.
These presentations to further inform local community members ran smoothly, and attendees expressed interest and enthusiasm for the Project. A larger Public Participation Workshop followed on September 9th, 2012. In a repeat of the first scheduled workshop to meet the formal Ministry requirement before a mining exploration program can be commenced, the meeting was again interrupted by an outspoken local individual. While the workshop was suspended, the Company reached an agreement with the individual regarding the need to provide additional information to the communities involved.
Inca One’s CEO Edward Kelly commented: “We are working as quickly and cooperatively as possible to successfully complete the Public Participation Workshop requirement. However, we are also sensitive to the need to engage and inform the local communities about our plans. We have stepped up our information program with local advertising. We will schedule another official Workshop, and any follow-up meetings necessary to acquire the drill permits we are seeking. We understand time is of the essence. Shareholders can be confident that we are working with the interests of the Company’s future in mind.”
Private Placement Offering
Inca One is also pleased to announce the terms of a non-brokered private placement offering (the “Offering”) to raise gross proceeds of up to CAD $1 million. Under the terms of the placement, the Company intends to issue up to 10,000,000 units (“Units”) at $0.10 per Unit.

The Company may, at its discretion, pay finder’s fees of the aggregate gross proceeds raised through finders pursuant to the Offering.

The Offering is subject to receipt of all necessary approvals including the acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”). The Offering is anticipated to close on or before Oct 30, 2012.
