Big Ridge Gold Corp. (TSX-V: BRAU) is pleased to provide an update on its previously announced warrant acceleration and the handover of the Hope Brook Gold Project, located in Newfoundland and Labrador, from First Mining Gold Corp. (TSX: FF) to Big Ridge.

 

Warrants Fully Exercised

 

On June 22, 2021 the Company announced that it had elected to accelerate the expiry date of the 22,325,000 Warrants issued July 8, 2020, in connection with the subscription receipt offering completed by the Company under its predecessor name, Alto Ventures Ltd. The Company is pleased to confirm that 100% of the 22,325,000 warrants have been exercised for gross proceeds of $4,465,000.

 

Big Ridge has a strong cash position of approximately $11.4 million and is in great shape to work toward the initial Phase I earn-in to acquire 51% in the Hope Brook Gold Project by spending $10 million over the next three years.

 

Hope Brook Gold Project

 

Big Ridge has received all necessary permits to open and operate the Hope Brook camp and all exploration and water permits are in place to commence the summer exploration program. Initial work will include re-sampling of historic core, prospecting, geophysics and a drill program expected to commence this quarter.

 

Michael Bandrowski, President & CEO of Big Ridge commented, “With more than $11 million of cash in our treasury, we are excited about the start of our first phase program designed to unlock the full potential of the former producing Hope Brook Gold Project.”

 

Mr. Bandrowski continues, “The known mineralization at Hope Brook provides a great resource to build on and the highly prospective targets in and around the deposit provide an opportunity to make further discoveries and potentially find the source of Hope Brook mineralization.”
