Merger Completed To Create Well-Funded Western-US Gold Consolidator
VANCOUVER - Northern Vertex Mining Corp. has acquired Eclipse Gold Mining Corporation, creating a well-funded gold producer and consolidator, operating entirely in the Western United States. Kenneth Berry, President and CEO of Northern Vertex, said, "We have created a powerful gold consolidation company operating exclusively in the Western United States by combining the assets and leadership teams of Northern Vertex and Eclipse Gold. With a strong balance sheet, production from the Moss Mine, and significant organic growth targeted through exploration at both the Moss Mine in Arizona and the Hercules Project in Nevada, we are uniquely positioned to be an active consolidator to become a mid-tier producer. On behalf of the entire Northern Vertex team, I thank our outgoing directors, Joe Bardswich and Ivan Fairhall, for their dedicated guidance and support, and I personally welcome Doug Hurst as Chairman, Marcel de Groot as director, and Mike Allen and Dr. Warwick Board as incoming senior executives. I am excited to be working with our entire management and operating team as we continue to grow Northern Vertex."
