VANCOUVER, BC , June 10, 2024 /CNW/ - Blue Sky Uranium Corp. (TSX-V: BSK) (FSE: MAL2) (OTC: BKUCF), "Blue Sky" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a binding term sheet (the "TermSheet") effective as of June 6, 2024 with Corredor Americano S.A. ("COAM"), an Argentine company of the Corporación América Group, to complete an option agreement (the "Proposed Transaction") in respect to the Company's Ivana Uranium-Vanadium Deposit ("Ivana" or the "Property").

Proposed Transaction Highlights (All figures in US dollars):

• COAM can earn up to a 50% indirect interest in the Property by spending up to US$35M and advancing Ivana through to completion of a feasibility study, and to drill key exploration targets located in adjacent areas of the Property.
• Following a positive feasibility study, COAM can earn an additional 1% upon its decision to fund the capital cost of the Project and further 29% interest by funding 100% of the estimated capital costs to achieve commercial production.

Nikolaos Cacos, Blue Sky President & CEO commented, "The recent PEA for our Amarillo Grande Project confirmed the Ivana deposit as a potential candidate for low-cost uranium production. The proposed transaction with COAM provides compelling benefits for Blue Sky and its shareholders by setting a clear path to bring Ivana to production in partnership with one of the most capable groups in Argentina.   Following an initial 50% interest for bringing Ivana to feasibility phase, Blue Sky will receive a free carry on the estimated capital costs in exchange for COAM earning an additional 30% interest in the Project. Furthermore, we are benefiting from substantial investment towards exploration at adjacent Properties, with the potential for new discoveries to be purchased by the JVCO in the future.  We look forward to completing the agreement and quickly moving Ivana forward through the next stages."  

COAM, an arms-length party to the Company, is a subsidiary of Corporación América International sàrl, ultimate parent company of the Corporación América Group. The Corporación América Group (www.corporacionamerica.com) is a conglomerate with diversified investments across Latin America and Europe, with significant stakes in the energy (www.cgc.energy), airport (www.caap.aero), agribusiness, services, infrastructure, transportation and technology sectors.

The parties have agreed for a period of 90 days (the "Interim Period") to negotiate in good faith definitive agreements (the "Definitive Agreements") in connection with the Proposed Transaction.  The obligations to enter into Definitive Agreements remains subject to various conditions, including but not limited to, COAM completing its due diligence and the parties having agreed on the final forms of Definitive Agreements. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Definitive Agreements will be entered into nor that the Proposed Transaction will be completed on the terms described above or at all. Completion of the Proposed Transaction will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Definitive Agreements, including obtaining the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") and Blue Sky shareholder approval.

The Proposed Transaction includes but is not limited to the following, subject to the terms and conditions of the Term Sheet:

1. the Company grants to COAM the sole and exclusive option to earn up to a 50% indirect interest in the Property in three stages, each conditional upon COAM funding or securing funding for pre-feasibility and feasibility studies.  
2. COAM delivers a first demand corporate guarantee to the Company guaranteeing COAM's funding commitments.
3. the parties enter into a shareholders' agreement that governs the relationship between the parties in respect to the Property and the joint venture entity ("JVCO") which, among other things, will provide for rights and obligations of the parties in respect of the funding and development of the Property and for the governance of JVCO, including that upon COAM making a decision to proceed with the development of the Property, COAM will be entitled to receive an additional 1% interest (resulting in COAM holding a 51% interest and Minera Ciero Azul, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company ("MCA"), holding a 49% interest in JVCO) and, in consideration therefore, COAM being obligated to fund 100% of the estimated costs and expenses to production, upon which COAM can earn an additional 29% interest (resulting in COAM holding an 80% interest and MCA holding a 20% interest in JVCO); and
4. MCA and JVCO enter into a call option agreement which, among other things, will provide JVCO with the right to conduct exploration and drilling activities on certain prospective areas and exploration targets (the "Exploration Targets") and a five year option to acquire the Exploration Targets (the "Call Option") at a price determined by reference to the amount and type of resources and reserves in respect of such properties at the time of exercise of the Call Option, as verified by a technical report prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 – Standards for Disclosure for Mineral Projects.
