Toronto, December 23, 2019 - Galleon Gold Corp. (TSXV: GGO) (the "Company" or "Galleon Gold") is pleased to announce that it has completed its previously announced three-cornered amalgamation (the "Amalgamation") with Explor Resources Inc. ("Explor Resources"). In connection with the Amalgamation Galleon Gold has issued 95,198,612 common shares of Galleon Gold in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Explor Resources.
President and CEO, Mr. R. David Russell commented, "We are very pleased to be finishing 2019 on this high note. With the merger complete Galleon Gold now has several additional high-profile gold projects in Ontario and Quebec including the West Cache Gold Project (formerly Timmins Porcupine West). The West Cache Gold project will bring approximately one million ounces of gold resource into our gold portfolio (see press release dated August 22, 2019).
