Element79 Gold Corp. (CSE:ELEM) (OTC:ELMGF) announced that it has entered
into a definitive agreement to sell a 100% interest in the Elder Creek, North Mill Creek, and
Elephant projects, all located in Lander County, Nevada, to 1472886 B.C. Ltd. (“1472886”),
a private British Columbia-based company.
The transaction, which is a strategic decision by Element79 Gold to streamline its asset
portfolio and focus on its core projects, involves the transfer of all rights and obligations,
including historical data and core materials in the following properties:
As part of the agreement, Element79 Gold Corp. will receive a non-refundable cash
payment of USD 45,200 and an aggregate of 5,000,000 common shares of NEWCO at a
deemed price of C$0.10 per share, for a total consideration of C$545,200.
Since acquiring the Nevada portfolio from Waterton Global Resource Management in 2021,
the Company had stratified projects based on their level of advancement, historical drilling
and exploration results and overall value for retention, sale or release. Following in similar
asset sale processes undertaken by the sale of assets to Centra Mining Ltd. and Sun Silver
Ltd., the divestment is part of Element79’s broader strategy to streamline its portfolio,
concentrating on its most promising assets while maintaining exposure to the future
upside of the Nevada projects through its equity stake in NEWCO.
Under the terms of the agreement, NEWCO will acquire all books, records, and data
associated with the projects, in addition to the mineral claims. Element79 Gold Corp. and
NEWCO will collaborate to ensure a smooth transition of ownership. The transaction is
subject to customary closing conditions, including approval from regulatory authorities
and the boards of directors of both companies. The transaction is expected to close by
November 30, 2024.
