Share Consolidation

The Company also announces that its directors have approved the consolidation of the Company’s 10,798,083 issued and outstanding common shares on the basis of one new share for every 1.5 outstanding shares. As a result of the share consolidation, the Company will have 7,198,722 common shares outstanding. The share consolidation is subject to acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Private Placement

The directors have also approved a private placement to raise up to $660,000 through the distribution of 11,000,000 post-consolidated units (each a “Unit”) at $0.06 per Unit. Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company and one share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”), with each Warrant exercisable at a price of $0.10 per share for a period of one year from the date of issue.

The Company anticipates that James Hutton, the proposed Chief Executive Officer and director, will subscribe for 9,000,000 post-consolidation Units, being 49.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company on an undiluted basis and 66.2% of the issued and outstanding shares of the company on a partially diluted basis. As this will constitute a change of control of the Company, the Company will be required to obtain shareholder approval of the private placement financing pursuant to the rules of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Funds will be used for costs associated with its corporate reorganization with Bear Mountain Gold Mines Ltd. (see news release of October 22, 2018), payment of certain debts, and for working capital purposes. Finder’s fees may be paid in accordance with TSX Venture Exchange guidelines.
