GOLDEN HARP RESOURCES INC. RECEIVES TSX-V FINAL ACCEPTANCE AND CLOSES ACQUISITION TO CREATE DISTRICT-SCALE COPPER HILL LAND PACKAGE
Golden Harp Resources Inc. has received final acceptance from the TSX Venture Exchange and has completed the closing of the previously announced amended and restated mining claims purchase agreement, dated effective Nov. 10, 2025, with Timothy A. Young, the company's control person.
The closing follows the overwhelming approval by disinterested shareholders at the company's Jan. 6, 2026, annual and special meeting, where 100 per cent of the votes cast by minority shareholders approved the transaction.
Acquisition overview
Under the amended acquisition agreement, Golden Harp has acquired from Mr. Young:
- 100 per cent of the initial mining claims as previously announced on Sept. 3, 2025;
- His 51-per-cent interest in the Block A property as previously announced on Nov. 10, 2025;
- Certain additional mining claims also located within the Copper Hill property;
- Resulting in Golden Harp holding 100 per cent of the Copper Hill property, comprising approximately 11,500 hectares in a single contiguous district-scale land package.
This consolidation eliminates joint venture constraints and gives Golden Harp full strategic control of the entire Copper Hill gold system.
Consideration issued at closing
As consideration for the acquisition, at closing, Golden Harp issued to Mr. Young:
- 8,218,460 common shares of the company for the initial mining claims;
- 20 million common shares for the acquisition of his 51-per-cent Block A interest and the additional claims;
- For a total of 28,218,460 common shares, all subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day from the date of issuance.
Royalty agreement
In connection with the closing, Golden Harp and Mr. Young entered into the previously announced royalty agreement, pursuant to which Golden Harp has granted to Mr. Young a 1-per-cent net smelter return royalty on the initial mining claims, the Block A property and the additional claims, as well as on the Main block property, in each case subject to existing net smelter return royalties.
Pursuant to the royalty agreement, Mr. Young has the right, at his election, to receive the royalty, in whole or in part, in the form of physical gold rather than cash. The royalty is perpetual and will continue with and be binding on the applicable mining claims. The royalty agreement also includes a royalty top-up mechanism intended to compensate Mr. Young in circumstances where processing or settlement delays result in deferred royalty payments. Additionally, to secure the royalty, Mr. Young may, at his own expense, register a restriction on title under the Land Titles Act (Ontario).
Assumed obligations
Pursuant to the amended acquisition agreement, the company has assumed certain obligations associated with the acquired mining claims, consisting primarily of standard claim maintenance, assessment work filings and compliance with existing royalty agreements. The company has not assumed any minimum exploration spending commitments or other material financial obligations.
Early warning
In connection with the transaction, Mr. Young acquired ownership and control over 28,218,460 common shares, representing approximately 80 per cent of the issued and outstanding common shares.
Immediately prior to the acquisition of the shares, Mr. Young had beneficial ownership and control of an aggregate of 26,574,262 common shares, representing approximately 76 per cent of the issued and outstanding common shares.
