Fokus Mining ( (TSE:FKM) ) has provided an update.

Fokus Mining shareholders have overwhelmingly approved a plan of arrangement under which Gold Candle Ltd. will acquire all outstanding Fokus common shares for $0.26 in cash per share. The transaction received 99.98% support from all voting shareholders and 99.97% support from disinterested shareholders, comfortably surpassing the required supermajority and minority approval thresholds.

Completion of the deal remains subject to customary conditions, including a final order from the Superior Court of Québec, with a hearing set for April 17, 2026, and closing targeted for the second quarter of 2026. If finalized, the acquisition will see Fokus’s exploration assets, notably the Galloway Project, move under Gold Candle’s control, providing cash liquidity to Fokus investors and potentially reshaping ownership dynamics in the Abitibi precious metals exploration space.
