Monarch Gold Sells the Monique Property to Probe Metals

02.03.2020  |  CNW
  • Transaction valued at $2.4 million in the form of shares and assumption of reclamation liabilities.
  • This divestment maximizes value for shareholders by allowing management to focus on its wholly owned portfolio of advanced gold properties.

MONTREAL, March 2, 2020 - Monarch Gold Corp. ("Monarch" or the "Corporation") (TSX: MQR) (OTCMKTS: MRQRF) (Frankfurt: MR7) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a definitive agreement for the sale of the Monique property to Probe Metals Inc. ("Probe"). The Monique property consists of a mining lease and 22 mining claims covering an area of 5.5 km², located 25 km east of Val-d'Or, Quebec.

As consideration for the property, Probe will issue 1,275,510 common shares to Monarch for a total value of $1.5 million based on a 30-day volume weighted average price (VWAP) of $1.176 per share on the TSX Venture Exchange. In addition, Probe will assume any reclamation liabilities associated with the past-producing Monique open pit mine, estimated at approximately $0.9 million.

"This transaction is consistent with the Corporation's stated objective to derive value from its non-core exploration assets, either through their sale or partnerships with well-established companies," said Jean-Marc Lacoste, President and Chief Executive Officer of Monarch. "The Monique property was part of the assets acquired from Richmont Mines and was not part of our future plans. Probe has done excellent exploration work since acquiring the option from Richmont in January 2017 and we are confident that they will be able to develop this property to its full potential. Taking shares in exchange for the Monique property also gives us the opportunity to participate in Probe's future success."

The transaction is expected to close on or about March 31, 2020, subject to regulatory approval and the satisfaction or waiver of other customary closing conditions.
