Auryn Resources Completes Acquisition of Homestake Resource Corp.

08.09.2016  |  Marketwired
VANCOUVER, Sept. 8, 2016) - Auryn Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:AUG) (OTCQX:GGTCF) ("Auryn") is pleased to announce, effective September 7, 2016, the completion of the previously announced plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") pursuant to which Auryn has acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Homestake Resource Corp. ("Homestake"). Homestake is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Auryn.

Shawn Wallace, President and Chief Executive Officer of Auryn, stated, "We are very pleased to have completed another key acquisition further achieving Auryn's objective of acquiring high-grade, quality, expandable gold assets in a premier mining jurisdictions."

He further commented, "The primary factors that compelled us to make the Homestake acquisition was the high-grade gold mineralization and more importantly the potential to expand it in the immediate and surrounding areas.

"We look forward to exploring this asset with our multi-disciplinary technical team with a goal of making additional discoveries through our planned 2017 drill campaign."

Lawrence Page, Q. C., former Chairman of Homestake stated, "the merger of the two Companies proceeded smoothly and expeditiously. Former shareholders of Homestake, who are now shareholders of Auryn, have a bright future based upon a fusion into one Company of three highly prospective mineral properties in jurisdictions where exploration and development results achieved by the highly professional Auryn exploration team, will undoubtedly add share value."

The Arrangement was approved at Homestake's special meeting of shareholders held on August 25, 2016 by approximately 98.2% of the votes cast by Homestake shareholders. Final approval for the Arrangement was obtained from the Supreme Court of British Columbia on August 29th, 2016.

As a result, the Homestake shares will be delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange and Auryn will apply to the relevant securities commissions for Homestake to cease to be a reporting issuer under Canadian securities laws.

In addition, as previously announced, the Company issued 437,675 shares at $2.30 per share to settle outstanding debt of $1,006,655 payable to former creditors of Homestake.
