Company Description
SANATANA RESOURCES INC (OTC Pink: SADMF), which has announced a change of name to Gold Strike Resources Corp., is a mineral exploration and development company focused on high-impact properties in Canada. The company is based in Vancouver, British Columbia, and is listed on the TSX Venture Exchange as a Tier 2 mining issuer. Its business centers on acquiring and exploring early-stage mineral projects with potential for significant gold and other mineral discoveries.
According to multiple company news releases, Sanatana/Gold Strike concentrates its efforts on projects located in recognized Canadian mineral belts. The company describes itself as having an award-winning technical team and an experienced management and board of directors, which it positions as a core strength in evaluating and advancing mineral properties.
Exploration Focus and Key Projects
The company’s recent disclosures emphasize exploration in the Yukon and Quebec, along with a broader focus on Canadian projects. Sanatana has commenced an initial exploration program on the Gold Strike Two Project in the Rogue Plutonic Complex region of the Tombstone Gold Belt in Yukon. This project lies approximately 15 km east of Snowline Gold Corp.’s Valley gold deposit. Work programs described by the company include stream sediment sampling, soil sampling and rock sampling designed to investigate anomalous zones identified in historical data.
Sanatana has reported the discovery of sheeted quartz veins in two separate locations on the Gold Strike Two Project, one hosted in the Rogue intrusion and one in hornfels. The company notes that the Rogue Pluton is considered prospective for reduced intrusion-related gold system (RIRGS) style mineralization, a type of gold deposit associated with reduced plutonic intrusions and often characterized by gold hosted in sheeted quartz veins, skarns or disseminated forms. The company highlights that such systems are known to occur in clusters within the Tombstone Gold Belt.
In a subsequent transaction, Sanatana announced the closing of an acquisition of the Gold Strike One Project (Yukon) and the Abitibi Property (Quebec) from LIRECA Resources Inc. and an affiliate. The company describes these as high-impact assets that strengthen its project portfolio. Gold Strike One is located within the Rogue Plutonic Complex region of the Tintina Gold Belt in Yukon and is reported to be less than 500 metres south of the southern extent of Snowline Gold Corp.’s Valley Deposit interpreted resource pit as defined in a preliminary economic assessment report referenced by the company.
Reverse Takeover and Corporate Transformation
The acquisition of Gold Strike One and the Abitibi Property was structured as a non-arm’s length reverse takeover under TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.2. In connection with this transaction, Sanatana has stated that the resulting issuer will carry on the business of Sanatana under the name Gold Strike Resources Corp. and that it has submitted documentation to the TSX Venture Exchange to change its name and ticker symbol to "Gold Strike Resources Corp." and "GSR". The company has also disclosed a new CUSIP and ISIN associated with the name Gold Strike Resources Corp.
Following the completion of this transaction, Sanatana reports that it continues as a Tier 2 mining issuer on the TSX Venture Exchange. The company has also disclosed a concurrent private placement financing and various escrow and royalty arrangements related to the acquired assets, which are typical structural elements for junior exploration issuers completing asset acquisitions and financings.
Exploration Programs and Technical Approach
Sanatana’s Yukon exploration work, particularly on the Gold Strike Two Project, is described as early-stage prospecting and sampling. The company has outlined plans for stream sediment sampling, soil sampling and rock sampling to further develop two anomalous zones identified in historical data. Historical stream sediment results referenced by the company indicate anomalous values in elements such as gold, copper, arsenic, zinc, bismuth, tungsten and uranium in different parts of the intrusion, and the company notes that it intends to use this data to guide current exploration.
Technical information disclosed in the company’s news releases is prepared and reviewed by Qualified Persons under National Instrument 43-101. The company notes that mineralization on nearby or adjacent properties, such as Snowline Gold Corp.’s Valley deposit, is not necessarily indicative of mineralization on Sanatana’s projects, reflecting standard disclosure practices for early-stage exploration companies.
Advisory Board and Corporate Development
Sanatana has reported several appointments to its advisory board as part of its corporate development. The company has appointed individuals with extensive mining and geological experience to provide strategic insight and industry knowledge. The advisory board is described as providing guidance, feedback and connections to support management as the company advances its exploration projects.
In addition, Sanatana has entered into a market making services agreement with Independent Trading Group (ITG), Inc., a Toronto-based dealer-member, to provide market-making services on the TSX Venture Exchange. The company states that these services are intended to maintain a reasonable market and improve the liquidity of its shares, with compensation paid in cash and no equity-based consideration.
Name Change to Gold Strike Resources Corp.
Sanatana has disclosed that, in connection with the acquisition of the Gold Strike One Project and the Abitibi Property, it expects to change its name to Gold Strike Resources Corp. and its TSX Venture Exchange ticker symbol to GSR, subject to regulatory approvals and the issuance of a final exchange bulletin. Later news releases issued under the Gold Strike Resources Corp. name describe the company as a mineral exploration and development company focused on high-impact properties in Canada, based in Vancouver and listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol GSR, while also referencing the OTC Pink symbol SADMF.
Business Model and Sector Context
Based on its disclosures, Sanatana/Gold Strike operates as a junior mineral exploration and development company in the mining sector. Its activities focus on acquiring mineral properties, conducting geological and geochemical exploration programs, and advancing projects through early exploration stages. The company emphasizes properties in established Canadian mineral belts, particularly in Yukon’s Tombstone Gold Belt and Quebec’s Abitibi region, areas known for significant gold exploration activity.
As an exploration-stage issuer, Sanatana’s value proposition to investors is tied to the geological potential of its projects and the expertise of its technical and management teams. The company’s news releases highlight its focus on RIRGS-style gold systems in the Rogue Plutonic Complex and the strategic location of its projects relative to known deposits.
Status of the SADMF Symbol
The OTC Pink symbol SADMF corresponds to the company associated with Sanatana Resources Inc. and, following the described corporate changes, Gold Strike Resources Corp. The company’s Canadian listing is on the TSX Venture Exchange, and its transformation through the reverse takeover and name change is documented in its news releases. Investors researching SADMF are therefore looking at a junior Canadian mineral exploration company that has undergone a corporate rebranding and asset acquisition focused on Yukon and Quebec projects.
