The junior is focused on developing the 7.4 million ounce Toroparu project in Guyana, and also owns the earlier-stage Chicharron project in Colombia.
As well as the name change the company is undertaking a share consolidation, reducing its shares on issue on an 8:1 basis to about 35.2 million.
The consolidated shares are expected to start trading on the TSXV under the ticker ‘GLDX' on December 2.
The company also announced a reorganisation of its board following the resignations of David Constable and Harry Pokrandt. The board currently comprises Richard Munson, Greg Barnes, Gordon Keep, Bassam Moubarak, Suresh Beharry, David Laing, Federico Restrepo-Solano and Lombardo Paredes-Arena.
Sandspring in June published a rescoped preliminary economic assessment for Toroparu, which reduced the initial capex compared to its 2013 pre-feasibility study. The re-scope includes the Sona Hill satellite deposit which provides a simpler start-up as all gold for the initial 10 years of production will be produced as doré, with flotation processing to be added as part of a year-11 expansion.
Sandspring currently has about 279 million shares outstanding, trading at C25.5c. The company has a market capitalisation of $71 million.

Gran Colombia Gold Interest in Sandspring Resources Changes to Approximately 19.45%
T.GCM, V.SSP | 2 days ago
TORONTO, Aug. 27, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gran Colombia Gold Corp. (TSX: GCM, OTCQX: TPRFF) announced today that its equity position in
Sandspring Resources Ltd. (”Sandspring”) (TSX-V: SSP, OTCQX: SSPXF) has changed to 19.45% through a non-brokered private placement (the “Private Placement”) completed today by Sandspring. Sandspring intends to use the proceeds of the Private Placement to commence work on the feasibility study for its Toroparu Gold Project, for additional step out and exploration drilling at its Chicharron Project and for general working capital.
Sandspring’s Private Placement comprised a total of 37,500,000 units (each, a “Unit”) at a price C$0.20 per Unit, for gross proceeds of C$7.5 million. Each Unit issued in the Private Placement consists of one common share and one share purchase warrant entitling the holder to purchase one additional share at C$0.35 for a period of sixty (60) months. The placement was fully subscribed and included an investment from the Company in the amount of C$1.0 million.
Through completion of the Private Placement, the Company has increased its holdings in Sandspring to an aggregate of 53,300,000 common shares, 31,800,000 share purchase warrants and 5,200,000 subscription receipts. The common shares controlled by the Company represent approximately 19.45% of the outstanding common shares of Sandspring. Assuming conversion of the subscription receipts and exercise of warrants, the Company, when combined with its existing ownership, would have control and direction over 95,500,000 common shares representing approximately 30.20% of the then outstanding common shares of Sandspring on a partially diluted basis. The Company can potentially become a “control person” of Sandspring assuming conversion of its subscription receipts or the exercise of share purchase warrants and have undertaken not to exercise warrants if such conversion would result in them becoming a control person of Sandspring, unless and until shareholder approval (excluding the Company’s votes) has been received. Sandspring intends to seek shareholder approval for the creation of the Company as a “control person” at its annual general meeting to be held later in the year.
The additional shares and warrants were acquired for investment purposes and the Company has no present intention to dispose of or acquire further securities of Sandspring, although the Company may in the future acquire or dispose of securities of Sandspring, through the market, privately or otherwise, as circumstances or market conditions warrant.
Copies of the early warning report filed by Gran Colombia will be available under Sandspring’s profile on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) or by contacting Gran Colombia directly at the address below.

Sandspring Announces Filing of Preliminary Economic Assessment Report for Toroparu Project
V.SSP | 16 hours ago
DENVER and VANCOUVER, British Columbia, July 23, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Sandspring Resources Ltd. (TSX Venture: SSP, OTCQX: SSPXF) (“Sandspring”, or the “Company”) is pleased to announce its filing of the Preliminary Economic Assessment Report (the “PEA” or “PEA Report”) for its Toroparu Gold Project in the Mazaruni-Cuyuni District of Guyana (the "Toroparu Project" or “Project”). The PEA Report was prepared in accordance with National Instrument NI43-101 by SRK Consulting (US) Inc. ("SRK") and has been filed on SEDAR and the Company’s website.
The results of the PEA were announced by the Company in its press release (the “June 4 Press Release”) dated June 4, 20191. SRK concludes in the PEA Report that “Given the positive results of the PEA, SRK recommends that the Toroparu Project be advanced to a feasibility study. Given the previous studies already conducted on the Project this could be completed within a 6 to 9-month duration.”
The Toroparu Project has been re-scoped to include the Sona Hill satellite deposit, modification of the Project’s processing strategy to start with gold-only production from a Carbon-in-Leach circuit (“CIL”) for the initial ten years, followed by an expansion of the Project in year 11 to add flotation processing capacity and the streaming agreement with Wheaton Precious Metals International.2 The PEA Report summarizes the results of the re-scoping at base case metal prices of US3 $1,300 gold (Au), $16.00 silver (Ag), $3.00 copper (Cu).
The PEA documentation of mining production quantities supercedes and replaces the 2013 Prefeasibility Study (the “2013 PFS”) Statement of Mineral Reserves4.
The PEA is based on exploitation of measured, indicated and inferred mineral resources while the 2013 PFS is based on the exploitation of proven and probable mineral reserves.
Inferred resources from the Mineral Resource Estimate identified in the Company’s September 26, 2018 press release5 comprise 5% of the resources used in the production schedule reported in the PEA.
Rich Munson, CEO, stated, “As we noted in the June 4 Press Release, the re-scoping study supports the significant changes to the profile of the Toroparu Project that have occurred since the 2013 PFS was issued. As recommended by SRK, we are now working on final feasibility.”
