(TheNewswire)



TheNewswire - October 16,  2020 - East Asia Minerals Corporation (the “Company”) (TSXV: EAS) (OTC:EAIAF) wishes to change its name to “Baru Gold Corp.” to mark the next phase of the Company’s business development as the Company looks forward to the upgrade of the Sangihe Gold Project license to production operation stage.  

 

Concurrent with the name change, the Company will adopt “BARU” as its new trading symbols on TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX-V") and “BARUF” on the OTC.

 

Subject to the Indonesian Government Operations Production License being granted, the Company intends to proceed to production without the benefit of first establishing mineral reserves supported by a feasibility study. The Company cautions readers that the any production decision made by the Company will not be based on a NI 43-101 feasibility study of mineral reserves that demonstrates economic and technical viability and as such, there may be involved increased uncertainty and various technological and economic risks such as the interpretation of drill results; the geology, grade and continuity of mineral deposits; the possibility that future exploration, development or mining results will not be consistent with our expectations; commodity and currency price fluctuation; failure to obtain adequate financing; regulatory, recovery rates, refinery costs, and other relevant conversion factors, permitting and licensing risks; general market and mining exploration risks and production and economic risks related to design and engineering, manufacturing, technological processes and test procedures and the risk that the project’s output will not be salable at a price that will cover the project’s operating and maintenance costs.

 

As one of the newest emerging gold developer and near-term producers in Indonesia, Baru in Indonesia local dialect, Bahasa baku, means recent, fresh, and new. It signifies the Company’s new direction and determination in advancing its Sangihe gold heap leach operation in 2020-2021. Furthermore, the name pays homage to the rich heritage of Indonesia mining which counts the Freeport McMoran’s Grasberg and others in combination as the one of the top 10 gold producing countries globally in 2019.

 

The foregoing transaction is subject to approval of the Exchange.
