BROSSARD, QC, July 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ - G Mining Ventures Corp. ("GMIN") (TSX: GMIN) (OTCQX: GMINF) and Reunion Gold Corporation ("Reunion Gold") (TSXV: RGD) (OTCQX: RGDFF) are pleased to announce that the business combination between GMIN and Reunion Gold has been completed by way of a court approved plan of arrangement under the Canada Business Corporations Act (the "Arrangement"). The Arrangement was overwhelmingly approved by GMIN shareholders as well as Reunion Gold securityholders at their respective annual general and special meetings held on July 9, 2024, and was subsequently approved by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) on July 11, 2024.
Louis-Pierre Gignac, President, CEO and Director of GMIN, stated: "Oko West will play an important role in realizing our vision of becoming a leading intermediate gold producer, with its significant resource base, excellent expansion potential and location in a mining-friendly jurisdiction. With the close of the Oko West acquisition, I am excited to undertake maximizing value of this generational asset. Our team is uniquely positioned to accelerate value creation at Oko West, leveraging our deep Guiana Shield experience, expertise in project execution, and the tangible synergy from the anticipated near-term free cash flow, established system, team and equipment at Tocantinzinho. I would like to take this opportunity to welcome Reunion Gold shareholders to the GMIN family, and I look forward to continuing to create value for our existing and new shareholders."
Rick Howes, President, CEO and Director of Reunion Gold, stated "We are pleased with the completion of the business combination and look forward to following the advancement of the Oko West project to production. I would like to recognize the Reunion Gold team's effort and shareholders' continued support allowing us to rapidly advance Oko West from discovery to development in just over three years. We are confident that Oko West will provide a key contribution to GMIN's vision of becoming a leading intermediate gold producer and will benefit Guyana and all stakeholders."
A newly incorporated successor issuer will hold and manage the combined business of GMIN and Reunion Gold ("New GMIN"), and has acquired, pursuant to the Arrangement, (i) all of the issued and outstanding common shares in the capital of GMIN (each whole share, a "GMIN Share") and (ii) all of the issued and outstanding common shares in the capital of Reunion Gold (each whole share, a "Reunion Gold Share").
In connection with the Arrangement:
In addition, with the completion of the Arrangement, Pierre Chenard and Réjean Gourde have joined the board of directors of New GMIN as nominees of Reunion Gold. Carlos Vilhena, a valued member of GMIN's Board of Directors, will step down from his position to facilitate this transition. Carlos' significant contributions, especially his insights in the Brazilian business landscape, were integral to GMIN's success in Brazil and is greatly appreciated.
It is expected that the New GMIN Shares will be listed and posted for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") under the stock symbol "GMIN" in substitution for the presently listed GMIN shares on or around July 17, 2024, with the shares of GMIN and Reunion Gold being delisted from the TSX and the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"), respectively, at the close of trading the day before. Each of GMIN and Reunion Gold will be submitting applications to cease to be reporting issuers under applicable Canadian securities laws and to otherwise terminate their public reporting obligations.
Greenheart Gold has applied to seek a listing of the Spinco Shares on the TSXV in connection with the Arrangement, but no assurance can be provided that such a listing will be obtained. Any such listing will be subject to Greenheart Gold fulfilling all of the requirements of the TSXV.
