According to the company’s press release:

The main asset of Pan American is its interest in the La Cieneguita mine properties located in Chihuahua State, Mexico.

I would like to thank the Pan American management team and board of directors for their confidence in our ability to grow the Cieneguita Mexico mine into a profitable producing asset for the benefit of our combined shareholders, stakeholders, employees and the local community at La Cieneguita. We look forward to leveraging our team’s mine building and operating expertise in order to transition Canarc into a successful producing gold-silver mining company.
