McEwen and two subsidiaries agreed to sell their Fuller and Paymaster properties and a surface rights parcel in Timmins, Ontario, to Dome Mine Ltd., a unit of Discovery Mining Ltd., for total consideration of $55 million. The company also received $13.5 million from assigning a loan receivable from McEwen Copper Inc. to new third-party lenders, which it says adds to its capital for growth spending.
Purchase price is $55 million: $5 million in cash and $50 million in Discovery Mining Ltd. common shares
Discovery shares will be valued using a five-day VWAP on the TSX ending two business days before closing, and are subject to a four-month-and-one-day hold
Closing is expected after customary conditions are met, including TSX approval for the issuance of the Discovery shares
Company says the two transactions provide approximately $68.5 million of additional capital, including the $13.5 million loan assignment
McEwen Inc.'s 46.3%-owned subsidiary, McEwen Copper, closed a $240 million senior secured four-year term loan on August 27, 2026, to fund engineering and early works at the Los Azules copper project and for general corporate purposes. The loan bears 12.0% annual interest, and lenders also received 5-year warrants exercisable at $40 per share, which could dilute holders of McEwen Copper shares. A final investment decision and full project financing are expected in mid-2027.
Lenders include Sprott Natural Resource Investment Partners ($112 million), Rob McEwen, Chairman and Chief Owner ($85 million), and other lenders ($43 million).
Interest is 12.0% per annum, payable monthly; prepayment in full or part carries a fee of 5% of remaining principal.
Lenders received 15,000 5-year McEwen Copper warrants for each $1 million of principal, with an exercise price of $40 per share.
Final investment decision and full project financing are expected in mid-2027; commercial copper cathode production is targeted for 2030.
McEwen's chief operating officer, William Shaver, retired from that role and from the Board effective August 24, 2026, and the company said his departure was not the result of any disagreement.
