Osino Provides Update on Shanjin (Formerly Yintai) Transaction
25 Juli 2024 - 10:05PM
Osino Resources Corp. (
TSX:OSI.V)
(
NSX:OSN) (
FSE:RSR1)
(
OTCQX:OSIIF) ("
Osino" or the
"
Company") is pleased to provide an update on the
expected conclusion of the regulatory process for the previously
announced plan of arrangement.
Communications between Osino and the Namibian
Competition Commission ("NCC") continue to
progress positively as the NCC considers the application of the
previously announced statutory plan of arrangement under the
Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), pursuant to which
Shanjin International Gold Co., Ltd. (formerly known as Yintai Gold
Co., Ltd.) ("Shanjin") will acquire all of the
outstanding common shares of Osino for cash consideration
of C$1.90 for each Osino Share (the
"Arrangement").
After receiving the third of three Chinese
regulatory approvals on May 28, 2024, competition law clearance
from the NCC remains the only outstanding approval to conclude the
Arrangement, which clearance is expected to be received in due
course.
As previously announced, it is expected that the
transaction will be considered for determination at the next
sitting of the NCC Board, which is anticipated to occur in August
(although the NCC is yet to announce the date). The NCC's final
decision with respect to the Arrangement is thus anticipated to be
received before the end of the statutory review period in early
September 2024, or earlier, depending on the final date for the NCC
Board meeting.
The arrangement agreement dated February 23,
2024 between the Company and Shanjin (the "Arrangement
Agreement") had specifically contemplated the possibility
that the NCC approval would not be obtained by June 30, 2024 and
provided for an ability for either party to extend the Outside Date
(as defined in the Arrangement Agreement) in 30-day increments by
up to 90 days. The Outside Date was previously extended by mutual
agreement of the parties from June 30, 2024 to July 30, 2024 and
has been extended again by mutual agreement of the parties to
August 29, 2024.
For a more detailed description of the
Arrangement, readers should review Osino's management proxy
circular dated March 25, 2024.
About Osino Resources Corp.
Osino is a Canadian gold exploration and
development company focused on the fast-tracked development of our
wholly owned, Twin Hills Gold Project in central Namibia. Since its
grassroots discovery by Osino in August 2019, Osino has completed
more than 250,000m of drilling and has completed a suite of
specialist technical studies culminating in the recently published
Twin Hills Definitive Feasibility Study ("DFS") dated effective
June 12, 2023. The DFS describes a technically simple and
economically robust open-pit gold operation with a 13-year mine
life and average annual gold production of over 162,000oz per
annum. Osino has a commanding ground position of over 8,000km2
located within Namibia's prospective Damara sedimentary mineral
belt, mostly in proximity to and along strike of the producing
Navachab and Otjikoto Gold Mines. Our projects are favorably
located in central and northern Namibia and are within easy reach
from Namibia's capital city, Windhoek. By virtue of its location,
the Twin Hills project benefits significantly from Namibia's
well-established infrastructure with paved highways, railway, power
and water in close proximity. Namibia is mining-friendly and lauded
as one of the continent's most politically and socially stable
jurisdictions.
