Scottie Resources and AUX Resources Announce Closing of Amalgamation

16.07.2021  |  CNW
VANCOUVER, July 16, 2021 - Scottie Resources Corp. ("Scottie" or the "Company") and AUX Resources Limited (formerly AUX Resources Corp.) ("AUX") are pleased to announce that they have completed their previously announced amalgamation (the "Transaction") pursuant to an amalgamation agreement dated May 4, 2021 (the "Amalgamation Agreement") among Scottie, 1302668 B.C. Ltd. ("Subco"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Scottie, and AUX Resources Corp..


Highlights
  • Merger combines two sizeable and complementary land packages in the Stewart Mining Camp - over 52,000 ha combined

  • Reduces overhead costs and permits numerous operational efficiencies

  • Management and Board of Scottie Resources remains intact and able to advance the company and its assets

  • Strong working capital with approximately $11 million in cash on closing

CEO and President, Bradley Rourke, commented: "We are thrilled to complete this amalgamation with AUX, which significantly increases our land package in the Stewart area from just over 25,000 ha to now more than 50,000 ha. Bringing in the Georgia River Mine project along with the Scottie Gold Mine means we are now simultaneously pushing forward two high-grade gold past-producing mines that have been chronically underexplored. Our seasoned exploration team will use their experience advancing the Scottie Gold Mine to efficiently explore the potential expansion of what is already an incredibly gold-rich system. At Scottie, drilling on the Blueberry Zone has commenced, and additional drills will arrive onsite in the coming days to begin drilling at Georgia River and the Scottie Gold Mine."


2021 Exploration Program Update

With the newly merged property portfolio, over 16,000 m of drilling is planned for the 2021 season. The majority of the drilling is allocated for the Scottie Gold Mine Project (Blueberry, Domino, 'O' and 'M' zones), while a smaller campaign will test targets in the Georgia River Project, and within the Cambria Project.

Drilling has commenced at the Blueberry zone, testing the downward extension of the high-grade ore shoot identified during 2020. Two additional drills are expected to begin turning on the Scottie Gold Mine and Georgia River Projects over the next week. In additional to drilling, multiple geophysical surveys are planned for the season, including 2D and 3D induced polarization ("IP"), downhole electromagnetic ("DHEM"), and horizontal loop electromagnetic ("HLEM") surveys.


The Transaction

The Transaction was completed by way of a three-cornered amalgamation whereby AUX and Subco amalgamated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) to form AUX Resources Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Scottie. All of the issued and outstanding common shares of AUX ("AUX Shares") were exchanged for common shares in the capital of Scottie ("Scottie Shares") on a one-for-one basis. All of AUX's issued and outstanding warrants ("AUX Warrants") and options ("AUX Options") were exchanged for equivalent warrants ("Scottie Warrants") and options ("Scottie Options") of Scottie, respectively, on a one-for-one basis, and immediately cancelled. Pursuant to the Transaction, Scottie issued:
  • a total of 54,499,642 Scottie Shares to the former holders of AUX Shares;

  • a total of 18,433,817 Scottie Warrants to the former holders of AUX Warrants, with each Scottie Warrant exercisable to purchase one Scottie Share at a price of $0.40 until expiry dates ranging from July 6, 2022 to February 19, 2023; and

  • a total of 2,432,000 Scottie Options to the former holders of AUX Options, with each Scottie Options exercisable to purchase one Scottie Share, at exercise prices ranging from $0.25 to $0.42 and expiry dates ranging from July 7, 2024 to February 8, 2027, subject to the stock option plan of Scottie.

Upon completion of the Transaction, Scottie has 202,433,537 Scottie Shares, 33,531,274 Scottie Warrants and 14,307,000 Scottie Options issued and outstanding.

Upon closing of the Transaction, all directors and officers of AUX resigned. Bradley Rourke, the President, CEO and a Director of Scottie, and Thomas Mumford, the VP Exploration of Scottie, will serve as directors of AUX, which will continue as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Scottie.

AUX also wishes to clarify its news release dated July 12, 2021. AUX Resources Corp. previously announced that the AUX Shares would be delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") effective as of close of markets on Wednesday July 15, 2021. However, Scottie and AUX now expect delisting from the TSXV to occur on or about the close of market on Monday, July 19, 2021. The trading of the AUX Shares was halted on Wednesday, July 15, 2021 in connection with closing of the Amalgamation.

The Scottie Shares will continue to trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "SCOT".
