Transactions Details

An initial payment of $10,000 CDN was received by the Company on signing the LOI on November 23rd, 2021. Peruvian Metals also agreed to sell its Peruvian subsidiary Empresa Querco SAC to Gold State for $7000 CDN. This already established legal business entity expedited the transaction in Peru by setting up a Peruvian holding company for Gold State. Upon signing the sales agreement, Gold State paid Peruvian Metals' subsidiary Hatum Minas SAC ("Hatum") the first installment of $100,000 US and will issue Peruvian Metals 4,637,500 shares of Gold State. The balance of the shares and cash will be paid 6 months after the initial payment.

Additional bonus/milestone payments include CAD$750,000 on or before the completion date of 10,000 metres of drilling on the Projects, and additional CAD$750,000 on or before the completion date of 20,000 metres of drilling on the Projects. At the sole election of Gold State, these payments can be made in cash or by issuance of common shares of Gold State at the value to be determined at the time of issuance determined by market value, provided that such issuance would not result in Peruvian Metals holding 10% or more of the issued and outstanding shares of Gold State following such issuance.

In addition, Gold State has granted Hatum a one percent (1.0%) net smelter return royalty (the "Royalty") on the Projects upon the terms and conditions of a transferable net smelter royalty agreement to be agreed upon between the parties. Gold State shall have a right of first refusal if Peruvian Metals receives a third party offer for the Royalty to purchase the Royalty on the same terms and conditions as such third-party offer.

The proposed transaction is subject to the TSX Venture Exchange acceptance of a filing required to be made in respect of the Acquisition and all other necessary regulatory approvals and acceptances, as well as other conditions precedent.

Jeffrey Reeder, CEO of Peruvian Metals comments: "The Company is pleased to complete the transaction with Gold State. This transaction shows Peruvian Metals' ability to create value through its project generation. The Panteria Project has multiple untested Cu-Au porphyry style targets and an undrilled high-level Au-Ag targets that need to be explored. Management of Gold State has considerable operational experience in Peru which will allow Peruvian Metals to focus on its core business model by developing high grade precious and base metal assets in Northern Peru. We are fortunate to receive an early ground floor share position in the new exploration company. The Company will continue to focus on acquiring and developing its own 100% properties which exhibit high grade potential to be processed at the Company's Aguila Norte Processing Facility. Over the past year, our fully operational processing facility reached positive EBITDA by simply processing 3rd party ore for a fee. As we move forward the ability to process mineral from our joint or 100% owned properties offers the potential to drive the current operating profit substantially higher".

Juniors Gain Momentum as Gold Price Surges

As the gold price continues its upward trajectory, investors are turning their attention to junior exploration companies poised to capitalize on this bullish trend.

The gold price has reached unprecedented levels in 2025, with spot gold peaking at US$3,495.65 per ounce on April 22nd. This surge has been attributed to a combination of factors, including inflationary pressures, central bank demand and geopolitical tensions.

For junior exploration companies, these elevated prices present transformative opportunities, reshaping project viability and investor appeal.

Gold Price Hits New Record, Touching US$3,500 for First Time

The gold price reached yet another record high on Tuesday (April 22), hitting US$3,500 per ounce.

In trading on Monday (April 21), the precious metal surged past the US$3,400 mark; it then briefly touched US$3,500 early on Tuesday morning before settling in the US$3,425 to US$3,450 range.

Gold has been on the rise all year, with the latest boost coming after US Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell spoke at the Economic Club of Chicago on April 16. In his remarks, he said he expects US President Donald Trump's tariff policy to negatively impact American economic growth and further fuel inflation in the country.

Gold's momentum was boosted in the following days as Trump made his own statements suggesting he is seeking ways to remove Powell as the head of the US central bank. However, the Fed operates at arm's length, and it would require an act of Congress to remove Powell from his post. Powell's term is set to expire in May 2026.

These impressive price predictions have investors wondering, what is gold's all-time high (ATH)?

In the past year, gold has reached a new all-time high dozens of times. Find out what has driven it to these levels, plus how the gold price has moved historically and what has driven its performance in recent years.
