The company intends to use the net proceeds to continue the exploration and development of its Sirba Gold Project in Niger and the North Ashanti Gold Project in Ghana. Newmont is currently drilling on the company's Anuoro license in Ghana. The Anuoro License covers 126 sq km on the Ashanti Shear and is approximately 25 km to the northwest of Newmont's Akyem +8 million ounce gold deposit. Newmont has the option to earn up to a 75% interest in the Anuoro license by spending US$4 million in exploration expenditures and property payments.
Our consulting geologist Claude Jobin has mobilized our exploration team in Niger and will commence drilling high priority targets at the Sirba Gold Project, which borders Semafo's Samira Hill Mine in Niger. The Company by spending $1.5 million over a three-year period is earning a 51% interest in the Sirba Gold Project from Golden Star Resources Ltd.
Closing of the financing is subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, including final TSX Venture Exchange approval.
We seek safe harbour.
