MONTREAL, QUEBEC–(Marketwired – Oct. 26, 2016) – TOMAGOLD CORPORATION (TSX VENTURE:LOT) (“TomaGold” or the “Corporation”) is pleased to report the closing of its acquisition of Skyharbour Resources Ltd.’s interest in the Baird property in exchange for 600,000 shares of the Corporation at a deemed price of $0.15 per share which was announced by press release on September 29, 2016. As a result, TomaGold holds a 24.5% interest in the property, with New Gold Inc. holding a 24.5% interest and Goldcorp Inc., as operator, owning the remaining 51% interest. The property is currently subject to a 2.0% net smelter return. A finder’s fee of 60,000 shares of TomaGold was payable to Transcend Capital Inc.
