Canstar Resources ( (TSE:ROX) ) has provided an update.

Canstar Resources has entered into a binding letter of intent with Churchill Resources for an option allowing Churchill to earn a 100% interest in the Golden Baie gold-antimony project in Newfoundland, in exchange for up to a 9.99% equity stake in Churchill, cash reimbursement, a 0.5% perpetual royalty, and relief from 2026 holding costs. The deal includes at least $5 million in exploration work commitments, with $2 million to be spent in the first year, bolstering Canstar’s balance sheet and giving it leveraged exposure to Golden Baie while it redirects capital and technical resources toward accelerating high-grade VMS exploration and a major drilling campaign at its Mary March project in spring 2026.

Under the terms, Canstar will initially receive 15,834,097 Churchill shares, equal to about 5% of Churchill’s post-issuance share capital, with additional tranches bringing its stake up to 9.99% over 24 months, subject to TSXV caps on the number of shares issued per tranche. This structure ties the ultimate value of Canstar’s consideration to Churchill’s future market performance, positioning Canstar to benefit from successful advancement of Golden Baie while simplifying its asset portfolio and sharpening its strategic focus on Newfoundland’s Buchans District.
