A possible vehicle to monetise Havieron
GGP could (once proven) demerge it's "Havieron Gold & Copper mine" into a separate company and effect a capital reduction to facilitate the spin-out and new listing of the "Havieron Gold & Copper mine" as an independent entity.
Following an initial MRE and feasibility study of the proven "Havieron Gold and Copper Mine"; GGP could announce that they consider the results of the Havieron project and the progress made substantiate the viability of the "Havieron Gold & Copper mine" as having the potential to be a standalone business and accordingly intend to proceed with steps for a spin-out, by way of demerger, and listing on a public market of a new independent company focused solely on the "Havieron gold and copper mine" business.
The rationale of this decision is that, as a standalone proven Gold&Copper Mine into a separate legal entity, " Havieron" could:
· Secure separate financial resources, with the goal of enabling accelerated development of the Havieron Gold and Copper mine;
· Allow Shareholders to benefit from both Greatland Gold's very exciting other tenements (yet to be proven) and GGP's proven "Havieron Gold & Copper mine" and the standalone value of the "Havieron mine" as it progresses through its own development milestones and the path to commercialisation and allow shareholders to receive the maximum potential value from Havieron Gold & Copper mine as a standalone entity.
The GGP Board would take the necessary preliminary steps in preparation for a potential spin-out, including the incorporation of a new subsidiary to hold the relevant assets. The Company will also put proposals to shareholders to obtain the approval necessary for a capital reduction which will be required to implement the demerger.
The approval of the capital reduction will enable the Board, in due course, to declare distribution in specie of shares in the new "Havieron Gold & Copper mine" entity to existing GGP shareholders.
Under this method, GGP reduces the corporate stated capital of its common shares by an amount equal to the fair market value of the "Havieron Gold & Copper mine" common shares, and distributes the common shares on a pro rata basis to its shareholders.
They could do the same with "Scallywag" if proven like wise all the other tenements if proven .
Just a thought - it makes sense because you can easily divest each separate legal entity on a full capital basis which I believe is tax efficient for the BOD and easier to assign value to each asset (tenement) as it becomes proven!
Just a thought ALB
