TORONTO, May 8, 2015 /CNW/ - Atlanta Gold Inc. (TSXV: ATG; OTC Pink: ATLDF) (the "Company") announces that, further to its news release dated April 29, 2015, the Ontario Securities Commission has issued a temporary management cease trade order which is in effect until May 22, 2015. This order provides that all trading in and all acquisitions of the securities of the Company, whether direct or indirect, by William Ernest Simmons (CEO) and Peili Miao (CFO) shall cease for a period of 15 days from today's date. This order is a result of the Company's application for a management cease trade order for the delay in filing its 2014 annual audited financial statements, and its related Management's Discussion and Analysis, and Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer certifications (collectively, the "Required Filings"), which were required to be filed on or before April 30, 2015.
Further to the Corporation's news release dated April 29, 2015, it is expected that the Company will be able to close a financing next week in an amount sufficient for, among other things, its commitment to the Company's auditors. It is then anticipated that the auditors will be able to complete the audit and the Company will be able to file the Required Filings prior to the end of May.
Other than as disclosed in this press release, there are no material changes to the information contained in the default announcement of April 29, 2015. The Company confirms that it intends to satisfy the provisions of the alternative information guidelines described in section 4.3 and 4.4 of National Policy 12-203- Cease Trade Orders for Continuous Disclosure Defaults, for so long as it remains in default of the requirement to file the Required Filings.
About the Company
Atlanta Gold Inc. holds through its 100% owned subsidiary, Atlanta Gold Corporation, leases, options or ownership interests in its Atlanta properties which comprise approximately 2,159 acres (8.74 square kilometres) located 90 air kilometers east of Boise, in Elmore County, Idaho. A long history of mining makes Atlanta very suitable for development of new mining projects. The Company is focused on advancing its core asset, Atlanta, towards mine development and production.
The Company is also focused on advancing its exploration and processing methods on the Neal Property, which is located approximately 15 miles from Boise, Idaho and comprises approximately 192 acres (0.78 square kilometres). The Neal Property's geology is similar to that of the Atlanta Project and it provides the Company with all-season access to further refine the processing equipment and procedures. In June 2014, Knife River assigned certain of its rights and obligations under its lease with the owner of the Neal Property to AGC. AGC staked an additional seven contiguous claims on public land that was open to mineral entry.
