Listing on the Canadian Securities Exchange
On December 17, 2018, the Company’s common s hares were halted from trading on the TSXV in
connection with the announcement of a proposed reverse takeover transaction involving Aventura Gold
Ltd. and the Tassawini gold project located in Guyana, South America. The Company has subsequently
determined not to proceed with such transaction and is currently un dergoing a restructuring of its
affairs including certain changes to its board of directors as announced on October 10, 2019 and
October 24, 2019 , a working capital private placement as detailed above and refocusing on the
Company’s existing El Pinguico go ld and silver project located approximately 7 kilometres south of
Guanajuato, Mexico as more particularly described in the Company’s news release of October 10, 2019.
As part of such restructuring, the Company proposes to apply for a listing of its common shares on the
Canadian Securities Exchange (the “ CSE”) and delist from the TSXV. The Board believes that moving the
Company’s listing from the TSXV to the CSE will assist the Company to reduce its listing and transaction
fees as well as facilitate and stre amline the Company’s ability to perform its corporate activities and
carry out future business transactions. The Company has called its 2019 annual general meeting for
December 11, 2019 to seek shareholder approval for, among other things, the listing of the Company’s
shares on the CSE.
