CALGARY, ALBERTA, Oct 27, 2009 (Marketwire via COMTEX) -- CBT | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Cobalt Coal Corp. (TSX VENTURE:CBT) ("Cobalt" or the "Corporation") announced today that it has exercised its option to acquire metallurgical coal mineral rights on properties owned by Fox Development Corporation ("Fox"), a Kentucky mining corporation. In exchange for a cash payment of $40,000 and a 7.5% Over Riding Royalty ("ORR") reserved for Fox, Cobalt will be granted a 100% working interest in certain coal properties in Pike County, Kentucky, near Cobalt's regional headquarters in neighbouring West Virginia.
