TORONTO, May 6, 2020 /CNW/ - Laurion Mineral Exploration Inc. (TSX.V: LME and OTCPINK: LMEFF) ("LAURION" or the "Corporation") announces that the Corporation has filed its annual audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 and its related management's discussion and analysis (collectively, the "Annual Filing Documents").
LAURION is normally required under subsections 4.2(b) and 5.1(2) of National Instrument 51‐102 – Continuous Disclosure Obligations to file its Annual Filing Documents by the 120th day after the Corporation's most recently completed financial year. However, as previously disclosed in the Corporation's news release dated April 28, 2020, due to the initial logistical restrictions and operational challenges resulting from the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Corporation elected to rely on the temporary blanket relief published by Canadian securities regulators to file its Annual Filing Documents. These restrictions and challenges have since been addressed and administrative activities have normalized.
As required by Ontario Instrument 51-502 – Temporary Exemption from Certain Corporate Finance Requirements ("Ontario Instrument 51-502"), LAURION confirms that there have been no material business developments since April 28, 2020 (being the date of the Corporation's last news release required by Ontario Instrument 51-502).
