Morien Receives $935,000 on Sale of US Land Holdings
September 3, 2019 – Halifax, Nova Scotia – Morien Resources Corp. ("Morien" or the
"Company") (TSXV:MOX) announced today the sale of its remaining land holdings in Hancock
County, Georgia, USA to a Georgia-based individual for approximately CAD $935,000 in cash, after
deducting transaction related costs.
The sale was completed through Advanced Primary Minerals USA Corp. (“APMUSA”), a wholly
owned subsidiary of Morien. The land holdings were inherited from a predecessor company to
Morien and had been deemed a non-core asset. Morien has sufficient non-capital losses carried
forward within APMUSA to offset the capital gain on the Company’s sale of the land. This
transaction has increased Morien’s working capital position to approximately $3.5 million.
