The transaction, completed on June 15, 2026, grants A2Gold 100% control over the 117-square-kilometer property. To finalize the deal, A2Gold issued 8,662,881 common shares to White Pine Precious Metals Inc. and committed to deferred cash payments totaling $1 million. The move follows A2Gold’s recent internal claim consolidation, positioning the company to operate the site as a unified project.
Management is moving quickly to unlock value from the site, which already contains a historical silver resource estimated at 11 million ounces in the Measured and Indicated categories. A2Gold plans to initiate a drilling campaign within two weeks, focusing on confirming historical data, testing oxide gold corridors, and exploring critical mineral targets, specifically antimony. CEO Peter Gianulis stated that the acquisition provides the company with significant optionality and serves as a vital complement to its flagship Eastside project. The site is fully permitted and benefits from established infrastructure, including power and water access, which the company intends to leverage for systematic exploration.
