Aurwest Closes Acquisition of 50% of Stars Porphyry Copper Property

By: Newsfile

Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - September 30, 2021) - Aurwest Resources Corporation (CSE: AWR) ("Aurwest" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has closed the purchase transaction, originally announced on September 27, 2021, with Pacific Empire Minerals Corp. (TSXV: PEMC) (the "Vendor") to acquire the Vendors 50% interest in the Stars Property, a copper porphyry project, covering 2,136 hectares contiguous to Aurwest's Stellar Property in central British Columbia (See figure 1).

Colin Christensen, President & CEO of Aurwest commented, "We're excited to have completed this transaction which provides Aurwest a significant strategic participation in an early-stage porphyry copper discovery, complimenting the exciting upside we see developing on our Stellar Property."

Acquisition Terms

Aurwest acquired the Vendor's 50% interest in the Stars Property by way of a Purchase and Sale Agreement, with an effective closing date of September 30, 2021. Terms of the transaction included a cash payment of C$350,000 to the Vendor, and also granted to the Vendor a 2% net smelter return ("NSR") on the property. Aurwest has the right to repurchase at any time one per cent of the NSR (1.0%) for consideration of C$1,000,000.

Aurwest also wishes to announce that it intends to commence a normal course issuer bid ("NCIB"), under which the Company may purchase up to 4,801,431 of the Company's common shares, representing approximately 5% of its issued and outstanding common shares. The Company is commencing the NCIB because it believes that, from time to time, the market price of its Shares may not fully reflect the underlying value of the Company's business and future prospects. The Company believes that, at such times, the repurchase of its Shares for cancellation represents an appropriate use of the Company's financial resources and will enhance shareholder value.

The Company intends to appoint PI Financial Corp. as its broker to conduct the NCIB on its behalf. The NCIB is expected to commence on September 30, 2021 and terminate on September 30, 2022, or an earlier date in the event that the number of Shares sought in the NCIB has been repurchased or if the Company feels that it is appropriate. All Shares purchased under the NCIB will be purchased on the open market through the facilities of the Canadian Securities Exchange. All purchases made under the NCIB will be at the prevailing CSE market price for the Shares at the time of purchase. Shares acquired by the Company under the NCIB are being purchased for cancellation.
