VANCOUVER, Oct. 3, 2018 /CNW/ - Finlay Minerals Ltd. (TSXV: FYL) (the "Company") reports that Serengeti Resources Inc. ("Serengeti") has fulfilled the first year financial and work obligations in regards to the option agreement of its ATTY Property.

The option agreement, which was entered into in March, 2018 (Reference: Finlay NR 01-18 dated March 5, 2018), has an 8 year term with the first year being binding for Serengeti with payments of shares and/or cash of $50,000 and $300,000 of work conducted on the ATTY.

The results of the $300,000 of field work conducted by Serengeti on the ATTY identified 4 drill targets - one of which had already been discovered and/or indicated through the Company's 2007 Titan IP geophysical survey.

The Company confirms that, per the option agreement, ownership of the ATTY Property does not get transferred unless and until such time as all the financial consideration of $1.85 million and work commitments of $12 million have been met by Serengeti.
