Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 30, 2009, Volcan Australia Corporation Pty Ltd (“Volcan Australia”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Volcan Holdings, Inc (“Volcan Holdings”) and the title holder of all of Volcan’s 28 bauxite tenements in Eastern Australia, entered into a joint venture agreement (the “Agreement”) with Martin Place Securities Pty Ltd (“MPS”), a Sydney, Australia based investment banking firm that focuses on the resource industry. Pursuant to this Agreement, each of Volcan Holdings and MPS agreed to form a new joint venture entity (“Newco”), 50% of which shall be owned by MPS and 50% of which shall be owned by Volcan Holdings. In addition, under this Agreement, Newco was granted the right to purchase an option to earn interests in Volcan Australia’s tenements by making a payment, on behalf of Volcan Australia, to the Queensland government in the amount of A$250,000 in satisfaction of tenement fees owed and A$250,000 to Volcan Holdings for general corporate purposes (the “Tenement Interest Option”).

Under the Tenement Interest Option, Newco would have the right to earn a 10% interest in any of the 28 tenements held by Volcan Australia (other than NSW EL 7301) that Newco spends at least A$500,000 on within 24 months of October 30, 2009. Once Newco has earned this 10% interest in a tenement, it will have the right to earn an additional 10% interest in such tenement by purchasing A$500,000 of shares of common stock of Volcan Holdings at a purchase price of A$10 per share within 24 months of October 30, 2009. As such, in order for Newco to acquire a 20% interest in each of Volcan Australia’s 28 tenements (other than NSW EL 7301), Newco would need to spend at least A$14 million on the 28 tenements and purchase at least A$14 million of shares of common stock of Volcan Holdings at a purchase price of $10 per share.

With respect to NSW EL 7301, under the Tenement Interest Option, Newco will have the right to earn a 12.5% interest of by identifying a JORC compliant inferred resource of 100 million tons of economic grade bauxite on that tenement within 12 months of October 30, 2009, and purchasing A$3 million of shares of commons stock of Volcan Holdings at a purchase price of A$10 per share. Newco has the right to earn a further 12.5% by identifying a JORC compliant inferred resource of 300 million tons of economic grade bauxite on that tenement within 12 months of October 30, 2009, and purchasing an additional A$3 million of shares of common stock of Volcan Holdings at a purchase price of A$10 per share.

Under the Agreement, each of Volcan Australia and MPS has agreed to cause Newco to enter into an exclusive management agreement with Australian Gemstone Mining Pty Ltd (“AGM”), an affiliate of Sholom Feldman and Pnina Feldman, for the provision of geological and project management services by AGM for all projects associated with the tenements held by Volcan Australia at cost as approved by the board of Newco, plus a 15% management fee, for a minimum of 24 months from October 31, 2009 and thereafter for such time that this agreement remains in effect.

Following execution of this Agreement, Volcan Australia and MPS formed a new company in New South Wales to serve as Newco entitled Plateau Bauxite Limited (“PBL”). Moreover, in November 2009, MPS helped PBL raise A$1,550,000 from investors in Australia in a private placement and on November 19, 2009, PBL purchased the above described Tenement Interest Option. PBL intends to try to list on the Australian Securities Exchange in 2010.
