Ossian, Indiana--(Newsfile Corp. - April 30, 2018) - North America Frac Sand, Inc. (OTCQB: NAFS) ("NAFS" or the "Company") ("NAFS") has entered into a Letter of Intent ("LOI") with Urban Select to sell 100% of the rights to approximately 29,900 leased acres located in the province of Saskatchewan, Canada, more commonly known as the Eagle Creek Property ("Eagle Creek" or the "Property").  Under the terms of the LOI, Urban will have an exclusive period of up to 60 days of signing the LOI to conduct its due diligence on Eagle Creek.  Upon satisfactory due diligence, a Definitive Agreement will be executed pursuant to which Urban Select can acquire the Property in consideration of issuing 20 million common shares of Urban Select to NAFS. It is Urban Select's intention to assign its rights to the Property to a newly incorporated Saskatchewan subsidiary.

The transaction is subject to a number of conditions precedent first being met, including (i) TSX Venture Exchange approval, (ii) NAFS obtaining the approval of its shareholders, if required, and (iii) Urban Select completing a private placement to raise at least $500,000. Upon closing, NAFS Board of Directors shall distribute the Urban Select shares received to enhance its shareholder value.

Joe Kistler, NAFS CEO stated, "This is a great opportunity for NAFS to move the Eagle Creek project forward with an experienced investment management team located in Canada.

As previously announced, 9,130,000 common shares (of the Urban shares received) will be issued to the cash investors of Canadian Sandtech, Inc. The issuance of these shares will be in exchange for the return of and cancellation of 37,800,000 common shares of NAFS being held in escrow. The remaining Urban shares will be distributed (as determined by the Board of Directors)to enhance shareholder value. I am looking forward to bringing additional information and updates."

The Property is located approximately 50km by road northwest of Saskatoon. The Property has been explored for sand that can be used as a hydraulic fracturing proppant.

The Property is the subject of a technical report dated March 13, 2018 as prepared by Norwest Corporation. A copy of such report can be found under NAFS's SEDAR profile. Following Norwest's development of the mineral resource model, an in-place sand resource of commonly used frac sand size fractions in the tested area was calculated. A bulk density of 1.5 g/cm3 was used totalling 7,799 K Tonnes, (8,597 K Tons) the inferred mineral resource for each size fraction is:

  • 20/40: 3,758 K Tonnes (4,142,000 Tons);
  • 40/70: 3,155 K Tonnes (3,478,000 K Tons);
  • 70/140: 886 K Tonnes ( 977,000 K Tons).

It is important to note that the explored area addressed in Norwest's report is less than five percent of the total acreage under quarrying leases held by NAFS.

"We are excited about this investment into fracturing sands," comments Min Kuang, president and CEO of Urban Select. "We see this transaction as an excellent base to build shareholder value. We look forward to updating shareholders on this Property, future acquisitions and investments."

About Frac Sand:

Frac Sand is a proppant used in the oil and gas industry as a part of the hydraulic fracturing process - a means of increasing flow to the wellhead. Frac sand must have particular characteristics including achieving certain levels of crush resistance, sphericity, and roundness. It is therefore a relatively rare commodity.
