This financing fulfills a critical condition outlined in the letter of intent for Leviathan’s proposed acquisition of Cura, positioning the deal closer to its completion.
Implications of the Private Placement on Leviathan Gold $LG.V
The $3.5 million raised by Cura addresses a fundamental prerequisite for the acquisition, which seeks to consolidate all issued and outstanding securities of Cura. In light of this development, the deadline for finalizing a definitive acquisition agreement has been extended to September 30, 2025. This extension allows both companies to ensure that all necessary regulatory documents, including technical and financial disclosures, are meticulously prepared for review.
