On November 30, 2011, Sillenger Exploration Corp. ("Sillenger" or the "Company") (OTCQB: SLGX) announced that was successful in obtaining a partnership contract to conduct geophysical research on mineral, hydrocarbon and water resources in Benin.
This agreement represents a major opportunity for Sillenger as it is granted preferential rights to concessions for the exploitation of minerals, hydrocarbons and water identified from the geophysical research. It is also a positive partnership as it will contribute to the growth and development of Benin which seeks to expand its economy in part through its natural resources sector.
Fasken Martineau assisted Sillenger with a team of lawyers lead by Chuck Higgins, Counsel in Toronto, assisted by Daye Kaba, Associate in Toronto, and by Jean-Claude Petilon, Partner in Paris.
