On December 16, 2022, the Company announced that it had entered into a share exchange agreement (the "Definitive Agreement") dated December 16, 2022 with all the shareholders of 1000196193 Ontario Ltd. (the "Vendor"), a privately held corporation incorporated under the laws of Ontario, pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding Common shares from the shareholders of Vendor in exchange for 35,000,000 common shares of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions set out in the Definitive Agreement (the "Transaction") and the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV").
The Transaction is an arm's length transaction for purposes of the policies of the TSXV and the Company has confirmed that the TSXV has determined that the Transaction is a "Fundamental Acquisition" pursuant to Policy 5.3 - Acquisitions and Dispositions of Non-Cash Assets of the TSXV's Corporate Finance Manual and is reviewable on that basis. The Company had initially applied for the Transaction to be approved as an "Expedited Acquisition", defined under Policy 5.3.
In connection with the TSXV's review, the Company intends to submit a technical report prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (the "Technical Report"). Completion of the Transaction will be subject to the TSXV's satisfactory review of the Technical Report, as well as the completion of all other TSXV conditions and the closing conditions of the Definitive Agreement.
The Vendor has entered into an option agreement with 1Life Holdings Ltd., a private British Columbia corporation (the "Optionor"), dated November 8, 2022 (the "Option Agreement") to acquire a 100% undivided interest in the fifty-seven (57) mining claims, covering approximately 3,040 hectares, located in the Nemaska area of Quebec, approximately 160 kilometres west of James Bay, Quebec (the "Nemaska2 Property"), subject only to a 2% NSR and one-time bonus in favor of the Optionor. For further information about the Transaction, please see the Company's news release Dated December 16, 2022.
"We are excited to begin work to complete the transaction of the Nemaska2 Property. Completing the Technical Report will add valuable information to the Company which will help direct us favourably upon the anticipated completion of the acquisition", stated Robert Birmingham, Chief Executive Officer and President of Brigadier.
About the Nemaska Property
The 3,040-hectare Nemaska Property is located adjacent to Li-Ft Power Lithium Project, Critical Elements Lithium and West of Nemaska Lithium (Whabouchi Project), located in northern Québec, approximately 160 km east of James Bay, just outside of Nemaska. Québec is a highly attractive investment destination for lithium production due to its supportive resource development sector, access to skilled labour and its proximity to the emerging European and North American electric vehicle markets. Canada also has free trade agreements with the United States and the European Union.
The Nemaska2 Property hosts at least 20 white pegmatite outcrops, most over 900-1000 meters squared and consistent with that of the Nemaska, Li-FT Power and Critical Elements Lithium Projects. The Quebec government carried out a large sampling program over the Nemaska2 Property and the geological report points to these white pegmatites containing spodumene. Further exploration of the property is recommended to identify additional pegmatite outcrops and spodumene occurrences.
