Mr. Thomas Utter reports
ZARUMA ANNOUNCES SHARE CONSOLIDATION AND NAME CHANGE TO RED TIGER MINING INC.
Zaruma Resources Inc. will proceed
with the previously approved share consolidation and name change,
expected to be effective Nov. 8, 2011. On the effective date, the
currently outstanding common shares of the company will be consolidated
on the basis of one new common share for 10 existing common shares
and the company's name will be changed to Red Tiger Mining Inc. In
the event that the number of existing common shares held by a
shareholder is not evenly divisible by 10, the number of
postconsolidation common shares issued to such shareholder shall be
rounded up to the next whole number. Red Tiger will trade on the TSX
Venture Exchange as a Tier 1 mining company under the stock symbol
RMN.
The consolidation of the existing shares was approved by the
shareholders in July, 2010, when the refinancing of the company was
approved. A private placement of $25-million (U.S.) and a debt financing of
$30-million (U.S.) was completed on July 20, 2011, and as the number of
shares that could be outstanding if existing warrants were exercised
would exceed 1.1 billion, the directors considered it appropriate to
effect the consolidation of shares at this time. The change of name to
Red Tiger Mining will avoid confusion with the existing share
certificates and reflects a change from the exploration stage of
Zaruma's development to an operational mining company.
The development of the company's Luz del Cobre copper project in the
state of Sonora, Mexico, is on track to be in production by the second
quarter of 2012. Major contractors are on site to complete the SX-EW
plant, finish the heap leach pad and complete the pipeline from pad to
plant. The designed capacity of the plant is 600 tonnes of copper
cathodes per month.
We seek Safe Harbor.
