QUEBEC CITY, Aug. 17, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stelmine Canada (“Stelmine” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with MarketSmart Communications Inc., pursuant to which MarketSmart will provide investor relations (“IR”) services to Stelmine for an initial term of 12 months.
Stelmine will pay MarketSmart a fee of $7,000 per month, plus applicable taxes, and MarketSmart will also be granted stock options to purchase 500,000 common shares of Stelmine at a price of 28 cents per share for a term of two years. The options are in accordance with Stelmine’s stock option plan and are vested quarterly over one year. The IR agreement, effective August 16, 2021, and grant of options are subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
Isabelle Proulx, Stelmine CEO, commented: “As Stelmine becomes much more active on the ground with emerging new discoveries at our projects in the Caniapiscau district, east of James Bay, we are determined to ramp up our outreach to investors. We’re delighted to be working with MarketSmart which is recognized as a leading Canadian IR firm.”
Adrian Sydenham, President of MarketSmart, stated: "Historical drill results at the Courcy Property and a growing number of surface discoveries over a broad area at Mercator to the northwest have our team excited about this project in terms of its scale and grade potential. This part of northern Quebec has received little exploration attention in the past, and Stelmine has the team capable of making an important new discovery. They’re now rapidly approaching the drilling stage after a three-year systematic approach to exploration that has built an impressive inventory of high-quality targets. We see excellent opportunities in the gold space during this second half of 2021, so we’re very excited to be engaging with Stelmine at a catalyst-rich period for the company.”
