Daulton Capital Announces $142.5 Million in Debt Reduction and Change of Name
NEW YORK, Sept. 4, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Daulton Capital Corp. (OTCBB: DUCP), (to be renamed Arx Gold Corp), a gold and precious metals exploration company, announced the reduction of $142,500,000 in debt obligations.
Reduction of Debt
On August 28th, 2012, the Company and Shareholders of Grimsby Investments Ltd amended their Share Purchase Agreement of May 12, 2012, solely to address two previous conditions between the parties, namely the Company's obligations under that agreement to tender preferred shares and funds payable to the shareholders of Grimsby Investments Ltd.
The original Share Purchase Agreement called for $75,000,000 of debt to be secured by a 10 year Promissory Note. This new Amendment specifically waives this obligation, and both parties have agreed to the cancellation of $67,500.000 of the debt obligation. The remaining $7,500,000 of the debt remains, and is secured by a 10 year Promissory Note.
The original Share Purchase Agreement also called for a further $75,000,000 of the debt to be converted into preferred shares. This obligation is entirely waived and cancelled.
All other aspects of the original Share Purchase Agreement, including the acquisition of the ARX Springs Gold project, are unchanged and this Amendment should have no effect upon any other clause within said Agreement.
Change of Name
Previously it was announced that Daulton Capital Corp was to change the name of the Company to Celframe Arx Resources Corp. Daulton Capital Corp will now be renamed ARX GOLD CORP to better reflect the nature of its development project as a gold and precious metals exploration company and its intention to expand into the precious metal resources sector as opportunities arise.
ARX Spring Gold Project
The ARX Springs Gold property is located at Coonambula near Eidsvold in Queensland, Australia, and has significant gold resources and is estimated to generate a potential cash flow of $22 billion over the planned 20 plus year life of the mine based on current gold prices. Queensland, Australia is well known to be a prolific gold producing State since the 1867 Australian gold rush, several major gold producing companies including BHP, Glencore Xstrata, Rio Tinto, Barrick Gold and Anglo American have been active in the State of Queensland and the area where the ARX Springs gold project is located has an extensive history of gold finds going back to early 1888 in the nearby St Johns Creek gold fields.
Production Experts
As the Company move towards initial development of its ARX Springs Gold project, Daulton will continue to build out its executive team with seasoned executives, and operational managers with high degrees of experience in the mining industry. The company intends to shortly announce the appointment of an experienced mining executive to oversee development operations which announcement is expected within the next 30 days.
