Chalice Gold Mines Limited - Coventry Shareholders Approve Plan of Arrangement

22.01.2014  |  CNW
PERTH, Western Australia, Jan. 22, 2014 /CNW/ - Chalice Gold Mines Ltd. (TSX: CXN) (ASX: CHN) ("Chalice") and Coventry Resources Inc. (ASX: CYY) (TSXV: CYY) ("Coventry") are pleased to advise that Coventry security holders have resoundingly approved the Plan of Arrangement ("the Arrangement") for Chalice's acquisition of a 100% interest in the Cameron Gold Project in Ontario, Canada.

Coventry shareholders approved the Arrangement at a meeting held in Vancouver at 10am on January 21, 2014. The motion was carried on a poll with 39,849,393 (99.89%) votes cast in favour of the transaction.

Following satisfaction of the remaining conditions precedent contained within the Arrangement Agreement, which includes final orders from the Court in British Columbia for approval of the Arrangement, Chalice will issue 46 million shares in Chalice to Coventry which will then be distributed directly to Coventry shareholders on a pro rata basis on or around February 7, 2014.

An indicative timetable for completion of the transaction is included in Annexure A.

Coventry President and CEO, Steven Chadwick thanked Coventry shareholders for their support of the transaction.

Commenting on the results of Coventry's shareholder meeting, Chalice Managing Director, Bill Bent said "Chalice's Board and Management are very pleased with Coventry shareholder's support for this acquisition. We are confident that Chalice can unlock the excellent upside potential of the Cameron Project. The existing Preliminary Economic Assessment and previous study work focuses on the potential for a combined open pit and underground development running almost in parallel. We see potential to enhance the economics of the project by focusing on the open pit potential, with the underground as optional upside later in the mine life."

Mr Bent said "Chalice's immediate focus during 2014 will be on optimising and increasing the existing open pit mineral resource through pit optimisation and near mine exploration. We will also continue to progress critical path project development and approval work scopes in parallel, to make sure we are well positioned to move quickly to a development decision once the project meets our internal hurdle criteria."
