Key Terms of the Facility

We are very pleased to partner with such a first-class global group, and this facility significantly strengthens our financial position and provides additional financial flexibility as we advance Montauban. Ocean Partners’ support ensures that debt obligations will be serviced through operating cash flow rather than equity dilution, while establishing a stable long-term sales channel for the gold and silver dore produced from Montauban. We are excited to move ahead together on the Montauban Project and to build a lasting partnership that supports ESGold’s growth well into the future.”
A Strengthened Financial Platform
This partnership with Ocean Partners enhances ESGold’s balance sheet and secures a globally recognized partner as the Montauban Project advances through construction.

Together, these elements provide ESGold with a stronger platform to deliver on its construction milestones and transition into cash-flow generation.

“The Montauban project is exactly the type of innovative opportunity in which we like to be involved. ESGold has found an economically viable path forward for precious metal production from tailings and surface rock. We are very pleased to form a long-lasting partnership with the ESGold team and are excited about the long-term potential in this area of Quebec.”
