Magellan Gold has signed a stock purchase agreement (SPA) for Rose Petroleum's mineral processing mill operation in San Dieguito de Arriba, Nayarit State, Mexico, and associated assets, licences, and contracts. 

Under the agreement, Magellan will pay $1.5m, comprising $1m in cash and $500,000 in stock to gain the assets collectively called SDA Mill.

"Our strategy following the acquisition will be to resume processing operations, build production and increase cash-flow." 

The SDA Mill is a fully operational flotation plant that also includes a precious metals leach circuit and associated assets, licences, and agreements. 

"Our strategy following the acquisition will be to resume processing operations, build production and increase cash-flow."

Operating for ten years, the mill has an ore processing capacity for up to 200t a day.
