Metals House Inc. Forms Strategic Alliance with LAURION
Metals House enters into alliance with mineral exploration and development company, following $150 million debt security offering with US Capital Global Securities as lead placement agent.
Metals House Inc. (“Metals House”) has signed a Doré Sourcing Agreement with LAURION Mineral Exploration Inc. (TSX.V: LME and OTCPINK: LMEFF) (“Laurion”), which includes LAURION and LAURION’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Ahsineeg Inc. (“Ahsineeg”), and Ahsineeg’s private investment group.
Metals House is a fully regulated global precious metals trading firm with its principal trading subsidiary in the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC) in Dubai, UAE. The firm has offices in Dubai, Miami, Sao Paulo, Toronto, Nouakchott, and Hong Kong.
In April 2019, Metals House launched a $150 million debt security offering, with US Capital Global Securities as its lead placement agent. The investment opportunity, which remains open to eligible investors, combines the collateral backing of physical gold with a senior secured 8% coupon debt instrument.
“We are excited to partner with Laurion in this strategic initiative,” said Ayman Shahin, Co-Founder and CEO of Metals House. “We expect this to be the first step in a mutually beneficial long-term relationship between Laurion and Metals House.”
The new agreement will give Metals House a ‘right of first refusal’ to the 190,000 tonne surface stockpile located on LAURION’s wholly-owned Ishkoday property situated 220 kilometers northeast of Thunder Bay, Ontario. The former Sturgeon River Mine produced 73,322 ounces of gold and 15,929 ounces of silver (1936–1942) from the №3 Vein (24 g/t gold), generating a large gold and silver bearing stockpile in the indicated resource category.
LAURION’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Ahsineeg, along with its private investment group, will not only finance and otherwise support the development and extraction of gold and other metals from the Surface Stockpile, but will serve as the Canadian conduit/broker for Metals House for doré sourced in Canada and other countries.
Cynthia Le Sueur-Aquin, President and CEO of Laurion stated: “This is truly a win-win scenario for all parties involved. Metals House has an excellent reputation in precious metals trading and long-standing relationships in the gold and silver industries. We look forward to drawing from their extensive international network, their industry expertise and their market knowledge while bolstering a strategic financial partnership that in time is expected to drive the significant upside in LAURION’s Ishkoday Gold Project.”
