The Agreement gives Randsburg the right to acquire a 100% interest subject to a 1.5% NSR in 53 claims comprising approximately 6300 acres. Randsburg also acquired by staking, an additional 40 contiguous claims comprising approximately 5600 acres. The Nathalie project is prospective for phosphate, iron, titanium and vanadium. On September 6, 2012 Randsburg announced assay results from prospecting and mapping on the Nathalie Phosphate Project including results as high as 7.59% P2O5, 18.94% TiO2% and 57.05% Fe2O3.
