On October 6, 2016, JDL Gold Corp. (formerly Lowell Copper Ltd.), Gold Mountain Mining Corporation (“Gold Mountain”) and Anthem United Inc. (“Anthem”) (together the “Parties”) announced the completion of their previously announced business combination (the “Transaction”) to create JDL Gold Corp. (“JDL Gold” or the “Company”). Pursuant to the Transaction, each Gold Mountain common share has been exchanged for 1.032 pre-consolidated common shares of JDL Gold. Related to the transaction, JDL Gold has consolidated its share capital on a 6.45 for 1 basis, leaving the Company with approximately 36.9 million common shares issued and outstanding.
