Sparton Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:SRI) (the "Company") announced today that Sparton Energy Inc. ("SEI"), a subsidiary corporation, has executed a Memorandum of Understanding (the "MOU") with Voltaix LLC, ("Voltaix") a leading U.S. specialty materials producer, for the sale of all germanium production from the Huajun Mine in Yunnan Province, China. The MOU contemplates an investment by Voltaix of approximately $US4.2 million dollars in a series of advances related to milestones in the development of the Huajun operations. General Terms The MOU contemplates deliveries of germanium dioxide (GeO2) by Huajun to Voltaix over the life of the Strategic Supply Agreement (the "SSA"). The advances are to be recouped through deliveries of GeO2 pursuant to the SSA. The price for this product is based on a blended formula related to actual processing and refining costs and local market pricing for GeO2. The advances are to be used for several purposes, including additional safety upgrades and efficiency improvements that will increase production rates. Huajun Operations The Huajun Mine is in the final stages of having a new mining licence issued. At full capacity, the mine employs approximately 400 people. The mine has completed all necessary safety and security upgrades to meet new Chinese regulatory requirements and reactivation of the operations will begin immediately after the new mining licence is received. The mine has a 7 year history of no major lost time accidents.

"As the world's leading germane producer, securing our germanium supply is critical.
