Scottie Resources and AUX Resources Sign Amalgamation Agreement to Consolidate the Stewart Mining Camp in the Golden Triangle

06.05.2021  |  CNW
VANCOUVER, May 6, 2021 - Scottie Resources Corp. (TSXV: SCOT) ("Scottie") and AUX Resources Corporation (TSXV: AUX) (OTC: AUXRF) ("AUX") are pleased to announce that, further to their proposed transaction announced on April 12, 2021, they have signed an amalgamation agreement dated May 4, 2021 (the "Agreement") pursuant to which a wholly-owned subsidiary of Scottie will amalgamate with AUX and all of the issued and outstanding common shares of AUX following the amalgamation will immediately be exchanged for common shares of Scottie on a one-for-one basis (the "Transaction"). The Transaction will consolidate the contiguous gold-silver exploration assets of Scottie's Cambria Project and AUX's Silver Crown, Independence, American Creek, Lower Bear and Bear Pass Projects, all of which will benefit from operational and geological synergies.

Upon completion of the Transaction, it is expected that the shareholders of AUX will hold approximately 31% of Scottie's issued and outstanding shares. The board of Scottie will remain the same.


Anticipated Benefits of the Transaction
  • District scale 522 km2 100% owned in the heart of the Stewart Mining Camp adjacent to Pretium Resources and Ascot Resources Premier and Red Mountain deposits in the Golden Triangle (Figure 1).

  • Consolidation of AUX's Silver Crown, Independence, American Creek, Lower Bear and Bear Pass Projects with Scottie's Cambria Project. The expanded Cambria Project will cover 27,465 contiguous hectares and includes five historical mines (Molly B, Bayview, Black Hills, Blue Grouse and Terminus).

  • Three advanced Projects in the Stewart Mining Camp - Scottie Gold Mine, Georgia (including the Georgia River Mine) and Cambria (including five historical mines). All three Projects will be drilled in the 2021 field season including a 12,500 metre three rig diamond drill program at the Scottie Gold Mine.

  • Scottie's significant infrastructure in Stewart will provide operational synergies to AUX's projects.

  • Scottie will be well-capitalized with over $6 million in cash.

"The 2021 field season will be a transformative one for the combined company as we aggressively advance the total land package with a combined 16,000 metres of diamond drilling coupled with geophysics and property scale geochemical surveys," comments Brad Rourke, Chief Executive Officer of Scottie. "Due to the complementary land packages, consolidation of Scottie and AUX is a clear value add for shareholders in both companies."

Transaction

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Transaction is expected to be completed by way of a three-corner amalgamation under the provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) whereby 1302688 B.C. Ltd. ("Subco"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Scottie, will amalgamate with AUX and all of the issued and outstanding common shares of AUX following the amalgamation will immediately be exchanged for common shares of Scottie on a one-for-one basis. Warrants and options of AUX will be exchanged into warrants and options, respectively, of Scottie. Closing of the Transaction is subject to a number of customary conditions being satisfied or waived by one or both of Scottie and AUX, including the receipt of AUX shareholder approval, together with any requisite minority approvals, and the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Scottie and AUX are committed to consummating the Transaction in an expedited manner and it is anticipated that the annual general and special meeting of AUX shareholders to approve the proposed Transaction will be held in July 2021 and, if approved and all other conditions have been met, it is expected that the Transaction will close shortly thereafter. Further information regarding the Transaction will be contained in a management information circular to be mailed to shareholders of AUX in connection with the annual general and special meeting. All shareholders of AUX are urged to read the management information circular once available, as it will contain important additional information concerning the Transaction. Following completion of the Transaction, the company formed by the amalgamation of AUX and Subco will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Scottie. There can be no assurance that the Transaction will be completed as proposed or at all.
