April 14, 2021 – Vancouver, British Columbia – Thunderstruck Resources Ltd. (the “Company”; TSX-V: AWE, OTC: THURF) announces that it has commenced a civil claim in the British Columbia Supreme Court against Bonga Xploration Drilling Supplies Inc. (“Bonga”), a British Columbia entity, and its principals, Lloyd Francis Gale and Viccy Namuyomba, regarding breaches of a service contract dated May 15, 2020 as well as defamatory and libelous statements made by the principals of Bonga against the Company, its CEO and Senior Management.
Bonga breached the terms of its services agreement by disclosing confidential information of the Company to the Fiji Sun, failing to ensure safety standards and procedures were followed, failing to utilize properly experienced personnel, failing to progress work diligently, failing to keep equipment in good working order, and failing to pay the Company for expenses incurred on behalf of Bonga and advances made to Bonga.
Following the termination of the services agreement by the Company, Bonga and its principals commenced a defamatory campaign against the Company, including postings directed at the investor community in Stockhouse and CEO.ca as well as to the Company’s joint venture partner, where Bonga sought to have them terminate its relationship with Thunderstruck and engage Bonga for its services alone.
The Company intends to vigorously pursue its claims against Bonga including payment of damages to the Company suffered as a result of Bonga’s conduct.
