Agnico Eagle-backed Fuerte Metals changes name to Talamore Mining
TSX-V-listed Fuerte Metals Corporation, which acquired gold major Newmont Corporation’s Coffee gold project, in Yukon, Canada, in September last year, and has Canada’s largest miner, Agnico Eagle, as an investor, has changed its name to Talamore Mining Corporation.
It is expected that the company’s common shares will start trading under a new ticker symbol “TALA” on June 8.
The name change does not affect the rights of the company’s shareholders and there has been no consolidation or division of capital associated with the name change.
Shareholders did, however, vote on other matters at an AGM on June 3, which resolved to elect Chris Beer, Scott Hicks, Shannon McCrae, Dawson Proudfoot, Sandip Rana, Tracy Reynolds and Tim Warman as directors.
Talamore is advancing the Coffee project through final stages of permitting, engineering and resource expansion drilling in preparation for a construction decision.
Coffee hosts three-million ounces of openpit heap-leap measured and indicated resources, as well as an inferred resource of 800000 oz.
