GoviEx and Denison Provide Transaction Update

14.05.2016  |  Marketwired

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - May 13, 2016) - GoviEx Uranium Inc. (CSE:GXU) ("GoviEx") and Denison Mines Corp. (TSX:DML) (NYSE MKT:DNN) ("Denison") would like to update their respective shareholders on the status of the previously announced transaction whereby GoviEx will acquire Denison's wholly owned subsidiary, Rockgate Capital Corp., which holds all of Denison's Africa-based uranium interests (the "Transaction") announced on March 30, 2016.

The companies are proceeding diligently towards closing the Transaction and with the satisfaction of the conditions precedent.

GoviEx has been notified that due to scheduling changes, the Zambian Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (the "Competition Commission") meeting at which, among other things, the Transaction was to be reviewed for approval has been re-scheduled with a tentative date of May 27, 2016.  Due to this change in the schedule, the previously anticipated closing date of the Transaction of on, or about, May 17, 2016 will be delayed until after the Competition Commission has concluded its meeting at which the Transaction will be considered.  The companies have received no indications and have no reason to believe that the requisite approval from the Competition Commission will not be received.

Expected closing

Based on the tentative scheduling of the review of the Competition Commission at a meeting which is scheduled to be held on May 27, 2016, the companies now expect the closing of the Transaction to occur in late May or early June 2016, subject to the receipt of all other required consents and approvals, as well as the satisfaction of other conditions customary for a transaction of this nature.

About the Transaction

As outlined in the news releases, issued by GoviEx and Denison on March 30, 2016, the Transaction is expected to create a leading Africa-focused uranium development company. Following completion of the Transaction, GoviEx will control one of the largest uranium resource bases among publicly listed development companies, with combined Measured & Indicated resources of 124.29 Mlbs U3O8, plus Inferred resources of 73.11 Mlbs U3O8.

The asset portfolio of the combined company will include two permitted uranium development projects - including GoviEx's Madaouela project in Niger and Denison's Mutanga project in Zambia. It will also include Denison's Falea project, an advanced exploration-stage project in Mali, and the exploration-stage Dome project in Namibia. 

Under the terms of the Transaction, GoviEx will acquire Denison's wholly owned subsidiary, Rockgate Capital Corp., which holds all of Denison's Africa-based uranium interests in exchange for approximately 56.1 million shares of GoviEx plus approximately 22.4 million common share purchase warrants of GoviEx. Upon completion of the Transaction, Denison will hold 25% of GoviEx shares outstanding and 28% of GoviEx shares on a fully diluted basis.

Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding completion of the Transaction and other statements that are not facts. Forward-looking statements are based on a number of assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by management based on the business and markets in which GoviEx and Denison operate, are inherently subject to significant operational, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies.

Assumptions upon which forward looking statements relating to the Transaction have been made include that GoviEx and Denison will be able to satisfy the conditions in the Agreement; that all required third party, regulatory, stock exchange, and government approvals will be obtained; and that the Transaction will be successfully concluded.
