(“Almaden” or “the Company”; TSXV: AMM; OTCQB: AAUAF) provides an update on the international arbitration proceedings (the “Claim”) under the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (“CPTPP”) with the United Mexican States (“Mexico”).Almaden is pursuing this Claim together with Almadex Minerals Ltd. (“Almadex”), on behalf of themselves and their Mexican subsidiaries (the “Claimants”). Prior to the illegal acts of Mexico which resulted in the complete loss of the investment, Almaden held 100% of the Ixtaca precious metals project in Mexico (the “Project”), while Almadex held a 2.0% NSR royalty on the Project.The Claimants have been informed by the Tribunal that the dates for the hearing have been rescheduled from December, 2026, to July, 2027. The purpose of the delay is to extend the hearing from six to up to ten days, so as to provide sufficient time for examination of all fact witnesses and experts. The new dates in July are the first that the Tribunal can accommodate.Get the latest headlines, breaking news and columns.By signing up you consent to receive the above newsletter from Postmedia Network Inc.A welcome email is on its way.
