(“SOQUEM”), Chibougamau Independent Mines Inc. (TSXV: CBG) (“Chibougamau”) and Globex Mining Enterprises Inc. (TSX: GMX) (“Globex”) to acquire a total of 20 mining properties that currently form the majority of the Chibougamau Mining Camp, in Québec, Canada (the “Properties”).

In order to acquire the Properties, the Corporation has committed to make global cash payments of $13,805,000, work commitments of $10,425,000, issue 16,625,000 common shares of TomaGold and issue an additional amount of $1,825,000 in common shares of TomaGold over a period of 2 to 5 years in accordance with the specific agreements. Upon signing, TomaGold will be required to make cash payments of $540,000, issue 6,625,000 common shares of TomaGold and issue an additional amount of $25,000 in common shares of TomaGold. A summary of each agreement is included below. The Corporation is currently in advanced discussions with potential financial and mining partners to finance the acquisition, exploration and development of these projects.

David Grondin, President and CEO of TomaGold, stated: “Never in its last 75-year history has the Chibougamau Mining Camp been controlled and developed by one operator with a global vision. With these acquisitions, we have achieved a first step towards that goal. This game-changer strategy will allow TomaGold to optimize the allocation of financial, human and technical resources under one roof for exploration, development and potentially production. By consolidating these assets, we will also have a better chance of attracting interest from first tier mining companies looking for large projects to expand their resources, and optimally finance the development of the mining camp through TomaGold.”
