Argonaut acted as Financial Advisor to Westgold Resources Limited (ASX:WGX) in relation to the demerger and spinout of its Reedy and Comet gold projects to Valiant Gold Limited.
The transaction establishes Valiant as an independent, well-funded ASX-listed gold company owning approximately 1.2Moz of JORC-compliant Mineral Resources across both projects in Western Australia's Murchison region.
An Ore Purchase Agreement between Valiant and Westgold provides a direct pathway to early cashflow for Valiant through access to Westgold's Meekatharra processing hub, while Westgold retains a significant shareholding in Valiant and continues to benefit from supplementary mill feed.
Argonaut’s deal team was led by Greg Southee and Bryce Denysiuk.
