Keith Piggott, Chief Executive Officer, commented: "A year after our investment in the Company and changes to management and the Board of Directors, we are excited to turn the page to a new chapter. Our restructuring efforts have impacted all areas of the Company, including gold production, exploration, our balance sheet, operating practices, cost efficiencies, employees and community and government relations. Our new name, "Core Gold Inc.," better defines our focus as a gold producer and our "core" objectives: to be a leading gold producer in Ecuador, operating profitable mining units and applying sustainable, safe and environmentally friendly practices in the communities in which our projects are located, as well as building value for our shareholders through growth in production and investments in exploration. We believe the Company is well positioned to overcome the challenges that new management inherited and move forward towards more stable production that will act as a platform for greater success and profitability."
Concurrent with the name change, the Company will also complete a continuation (the "Continuation") under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), and adopt new Notice of Articles and Articles of the Company in connection therewith. A copy of the new Articles will be available under the Company's profile at www.sedar.com. The name change and the Continuation were approved by shareholders at the Company's annual general and special meeting held on August 17, 2017.
The CUSIP number assigned to the Company's common shares under its new name will be 21871K107. No further action is required by existing shareholders with respect to the name change and the Continuation. Certificates representing common shares of Dynasty will not be affected by the name and symbol change or the Continuation and will not need to be exchanged. Shareholders may contact their broker or agent with any questions in this regard.
The Company expects to complete its symbol change to "CGLDF" on the OTCQX by October 6, 2017.
