Each Unit shall consist of one common share (a "Common Share") of the Company

the Offering is anticipated to occur on March 31, 2014 and is subject to receipt
of applicable regulatory approvals including approval of the TSX Venture
Exchange.


The net proceeds of the Offering will be used to fund the acquisition payment to
Allied Nevada Gold Corp. in connection with the acquisition of the Hasbrouck
project and for general corporate purposes.


The securities offered have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S.
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act") or any U.S. state
