Executive Summary

  • Leviathan Gold Ltd. entered into an Amalgamation Agreement to acquire 100 % of Cura Exploration Botswana Corp., bringing the Central copper project and Serule uranium project in Botswana under Leviathan’s control.
  • The transaction will issue 37,000,000 Leviathan common shares and 5,500,000 Leviathan share‑purchase warrants to Cura shareholders; former Cura owners are expected to hold ~42.9 % of Leviathan post‑closing (≈41.5 % fully diluted).
  • Milestone‑based earn‑out provisions may result in issuance of up to an additional 16,500,000 Leviathan shares upon achievement of specified copper and uranium resource thresholds.

Key Details

  • Amalgamation Structure: Subco (Leviathan subsidiary) will merge with Cura; all Cura securities exchanged on a one‑to‑one basis for Leviathan shares.
  • Consideration to Sellers: Cura paid US $1,688,863 cash to the AfriMetals sellers; Cura holds ~US $0.765 M cash and incurred C$93,000 in technical report expenses.
  • Asset Package Acquired:
  • Central Copper Project – ~25 km of D’Kar/Ngwako Pan contact dome, adjacent to MMG’s Khoemacau deposit; prospective for Tier‑1 copper discovery.
  • Serule Uranium Project – Adjacent to Lotus Resources’ Letlhakane uranium project; recent drill hole returned 10 m @ 415 ppm U₃O₈.
  • Total tenure: >12,000 km² covering 3 copper licences (Innovation Surveyors), 5 copper licences (GCM Resources) and 14 uranium licences (Afri‑Uranium).
  • Share Exchange: 37,000,000 Leviathan common shares issued to Cura shareholders; 5,500,000 Leviathan warrants (2‑year term, C$0.15 exercise price) mirroring Cura’s existing warrants.

  • Regulatory & Closing Conditions: Subject to shareholder approval (Cura), TSXV and other regulatory approvals; trading halted pending TSXV review under Policy 5.3 for Fundamental Acquisitions.

  • Qualified Person: Andrew Pedley, P.Eng., approved technical information for the Central and Serule projects; scientific data for adjacent properties (Khoemacau, Banana Zone, Letlhakane) not verified by Leviathan.
