The agreement covers 15.5 million units priced at C$1.35 each. Each unit includes a full common share and one-half of a purchase warrant, allowing Barrick to acquire additional shares at C$1.70. This structure positions Barrick with a 9.9% stake on a nondiluted basis, potentially climbing to 14.1% should the firm exercise its warrants. Beyond the equity purchase, the deal provides Barrick with information rights and anti-dilution protections, provided its ownership interest remains above the 5% threshold.
