Alamos Gold (TSE:AGI) Completes Acquisition of Argonaut Gold
Alamos Gold Inc. has successfully completed the acquisition of Argonaut Gold Inc., further solidifying its position as a Canadian-focused, intermediate gold producer. By acquiring Argonaut, Alamos now has access to the Magino mine, located next to its Island Gold mine. This strategic move is aimed at capitalizing on synergies and shared infrastructure to create one of Canada’s largest and most cost-effective gold operations.
Formation of Florida Canyon Gold Inc.
As part of the acquisition deal, Argonaut’s U.S. and Mexico assets have been spun out into a new entity called Florida Canyon Gold Inc. This restructuring allows Alamos to focus on its Canadian operations while Florida Canyon Gold will oversee the management of Argonaut’s assets in the U.S. and Mexico. As a result of this change, Argonaut shares will be delisted from the TSX, and Florida Canyon Gold is set to begin trading on the TSX Venture Exchange.
