Sona and Skeena Announce Closing of Arrangement Following Receipt of Final Order

15.09.2016  |  Marketwired
VANCOUVER, Sep 15, 2016 - Skeena Resources Limited ("Skeena") (TSX VENTURE:SKE) (FRANKFURT:QS7) and Sona Resources Corp. ("Sona") (TSX VENTURE:SYS) are pleased to announce the completion of the previously announced arrangement agreement (the "Agreement") that combines their respective companies by way of a statutory plan of arrangement pursuant to the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the "Transaction"), under which Skeena acquired all of the outstanding common shares of Sona ("Sona Shares") in exchange for common shares of Skeena ("Skeena Shares").

Under the terms of the Agreement, Skeena acquired each outstanding Sona Share in exchange for 0.5111 of one Skeena Share (the "Exchange Ratio"), representing a value of 4.6 cents per share based on the closing price of Skeena on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") on June 24, 2016. This represents the 20-day volume weighted average ("VWAP") trading price on the TSXV and a 30.4% premium on the three-month VWAP for an aggregate value to Sona shareholders of $1,344,307. The holders of Sona stock options who did not exercise such options prior to the effective time of the Arrangement, received stock options of Skeena entitling the holder thereof to acquire 0.5111 of common shares of Skeena for each common share of Sona the holder would have otherwise been entitled to acquire.

Skeena Shares are to continue to trade on the TSXV, while Sona Shares will be delisted from the TSXV and an application will be made for Sona to cease to be a reporting issuer.


About Skeena

Skeena Resources Ltd. is a junior Canadian mining exploration company focused on developing prospective base and precious metal properties in the Golden Triangle region of northern British Columbia, Canada. The Company's primary activities are the evaluation and development of the Spectrum gold project and adjacent GJ copper-gold project as well as exploration on the recently optioned past-producing Snip gold mine, acquired from Barrick Gold Corp. Skeena's management includes a highly experienced team of mine-finders, including Ron Netolitzky, Chairman of the Board.


About Sona Resources Corp.

Sona's primary asset is the past-producing underground Blackdome gold mine, located in the Clinton Mining District in southwestern British Columbia. From 1986 to 1989 Blackdome produced 225,000 ounces of gold from a low-sulphidation, gold-and-silver-rich epithermal vein system at a head grade of 20 grams per tonne Au. Blackdome includes a permitted 300 tonne-per-day conventional gravity separation and flotation mill and tailings facility, a large land package, in addition to a series of known mineralized veins with excellent year-round exploration potential. Additionally, Sona has an option to acquire a 100% interest in the adjacent Elizabeth gold prospect. In 2010, Micon International Limited completed a Preliminary Economic Assessment on behalf of Sona (available on SEDAR under Sona's profile) based on the combined resources from both Elizabeth and Blackdome, under a proposal to truck ore to the Blackdome mill for processing.
