Post-merger Form 15 ends reporting; cash-out at C$1.70; warrants persist to 2026.

The company completed a merger on October 23, 2025, after which each common share became the right to receive C$1.70 in cash. With Augusta Gold now a wholly owned subsidiary of AngloGold Ashanti, it filed Form 15 to terminate registration under Section 12(g) and suspend periodic reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d).

The filing lists one holder of common shares and 18 holders of the 2023 warrants. The warrants became exercisable for the merger consideration of C$1.70 while the exercise price remains C$2.30 per share, and they remain outstanding until January 20, 2026. Actual market impact depends on holder actions and the warrants’ remaining term.
