Black Fire Minerals has reached an agreement with Pacific Gold Corporation to accelerate the transfer of the title to the Pilot Mountain Tungsten Copper project in Nevada by paying an initial US$350,000.

This will give Black Fire full title to the mineral claims covering the tungsten copper project, which has a JORC Resource of 6.79 million tonnes at 0.31% WO3, 22.8 grams per tonne silver and 0.17% copper.

The company has also agreed to pay PGC a further US$850,000 by 31 March 2014 to retain title to the claims.

Under the original agreement, Black Fire could only achieve title once it had paid all outstanding options totalling US$1.5 million by September 2015.

Black Fire is keen about the future prospects at Pilot Mountain as tungsten prices have risen about 25% to about US$410 per tonne in the calendar year to date.

Pilot Mountain is located about 250 kilometres southeast of Reno, Nevada. It is well served by nearby infrastructure, including sealed roads, nearby towns and mains power lines.

Besides the JORC Resource, the company’s drilling and compilations of historic data has also identified an Exploration Target of 10.8Mt to 12.5MT at between 032% and 0.35% WO3.

This reflects opportunities at the Garnet, Gunmetal and Good Hope prospects where historical drilling intersections require follow-up.

Wolf wants to begin mining by the end of 2014 and expects the site at Hemerdon to be the "world's next major tungsten mining operation".

It is believed to be the fourth largest tungsten resource in the world and the company hopes to produce about 3,000 tonnes of tungsten and tin a year.

A £75m contract to build the new mine plant is also beginning. Mining was carried out there between 1919 and 1920 and again from 1934 to 1944, when production ceased.
