The Company entered into a Deed of Assignment and Assumption Agreement dated July 24, 2014 (the “Assumption Agreement”) among Joseph Boampong Memorial Institute Ltd. (“JBMIL”) and Equus Mining Ltd. (“EML”), Burey Gold Guinee sarl (“BGGs”) and Burey Gold Limited (“BGL”) and, collectively with EML and BGGs, (the “Vendors”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to assume JBMIL’s right to acquire a 78% beneficial interest in the Mansounia Concession (the “Property”) from the Vendors. The Company exercised that right and acquired a 78% beneficial interest in the Property.

The Property lies in the southwest margin of the Siguiri Basin, in the Kouroussa Prefecture, Kankan Region, in Guinea, West Africa and covers a surface area of 145 square kilometres. The Property is located approximately 80 kilometres west, by road, from the country’s third largest city, Kankan.

An exploration permit for the Property was granted by the Ministère des Mines et de la Géologie on August 20, 2013. As part of its due diligence, the Company obtained a legal opinion which confirmed that the license was in good standing at the time of acquisition. It is the Company’s intention to obtain an exploitation permit to allow the Company the right to mine and dispose of minerals for 15 years, with a possible 5-year extension. The Company has commenced work on the feasibility study required for obtaining this permit.

In consideration for the acquisition of the interest in the Property, the Company paid in cash $100,000 to BGL and $40,000 to EML and issued BGL and EML an aggregate of 6,514,350 shares of common stock of the Company (the “First Tranche Shares”), at a deemed price of $0.1765 per share, for an aggregate deemed value of $1,150,000. The First Tranche Shares were issued to BGL and EML in the proportions of 71.43% and 28.57%, respectively. For accounting purposes, the Company recorded the cash payment of $140,000, and $10,000 for an independent valuation of the Property. Additionally, $781,722 was capitalized to mineral property interests, being the fair value of the first tranche of shares. The fair value of the first tranche shares was based on the closing price of the Company’s shares on the OTCQB on July 24, 2014.

Within 14 days of commercial gold production being publicly declared from ore mined from the Property, the Company will issue BGL and EML a second tranche of shares of common stock of the Company (the “Second Tranche Shares”). The number of Second Tranche Shares to be issued shall be calculated by dividing $1,150,000 by the volume weighted average share price of the Company’s common stock over a 20-day period preceding the issuance date. The Second Tranche Shares shall be issued to BGL and EML in the proportions of 71.43% and 28.57%, respectively.

The mining exploration license for the Company was renewed for twelve months on December 11, 2017, and the Company is now proceeding with the feasibility study phase.
