130 International

Company Background

130 International (the Company) is a fully funded, pre-IPO junior mining company based in Calgary, Alberta Canada. The Company’s balance sheet shows assets more than $100 million using the adjusted cost base. Company policy focuses on using the best financial technology, in combination with the latest proven technologies in the mining field, to maximize returns and protect the environment.

Current industry research has shown that mining properties can be advanced significantly in value by utilizing state-of-the-art mining techniques and geo-environmental property models. 130 International will use this model of upgrading the engineering with new technology to a proven, measured and recoverable status. Once the new value is established, what follows is the ability to sell, digitize or go into production.

The existing shareholders and management team have many years of experience in multiple areas of business, risk management and merchant banking. For each of the individual projects, 130 International will leverage the expertise of existing management, contributing additional human resources as needed.

This is a proven model for a junior mining company and 130 International is following it—backed by current measured and indicated gold reserves of 1,346,080 troy oz. 130 international also has existing gold claim options and researched additional opportunities that include working operations and claims with proven reserves in Canada, Columbia, and Tanzania, as well as others within the United States. Some of the claims are under-option as low as 3% of real value due to ownership circumstances.
