Sirios buys back a portion of a royalty on its Aquilon gold property
02 Agosto 2022 - 8:00AM
The management of Sirios Resources Inc. (TSX-V: SOI) is pleased to
announce the repurchase of a significant portion of the royalty on
the Aquilon property which had been granted during the strategic
investment made by a private investor last January (ref. press
releases of 01/17/2022 and 01/27/2022).
In accordance with last January's agreement,
Sirios recently paid the sum of $200,000 to buy back three-quarters
of the 1% Net Smelter Return (“NSR”) royalty, which has therefore
been reduced to 0.25%. Sirios had previously obtained a deadline
extension for exercising the buyback before July 31, 2022 instead
of June 30, in return for an amount of $25,000. In addition, the
investor owning this royalty participated in the financing
completed last week (ref. press release of 07/28/2022) in order to
maintain their share ownership of approximately 9% in Sirios.
Dominique Doucet, President and CEO of Sirios,
commented: “We consider the royalty buyback we have just completed
to be excellent news given the potential of our high-grade Aquilon
gold property. Work was already carried out last June on the
property and we intend to continue to move forward in the coming
months to relaunch and develop the Aquilon project.”
