Explanatory Note

 

This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) amends, in its entirety, the statement on Schedule 13G originally filed on February 26, 2021 (the “Schedule 13G”) by the Reporting Persons (defined below). On January 28, 2022, Chifeng Jilong Gold Mining Co., Ltd, through its subsidiary Chijin International (Hong Kong) Limited (“Chijin”), and Chijin’s assignee Kefei Investment (BVI) Limited, acquired all of the issued and outstanding Shares (defined below) of the Issuer (the “Transaction”). According to Exhibit 99.1 to the Issuer’s Form 6-K, filed on January 28, 2022, the Issuer has, or is expected to delist the Shares from the NYSE American, the Toronto Stock Exchange and the Ghana Stock Exchange and apply to cease to be a reporting issuer or its equivalent under U.S., Canadian and Ghanaian securities laws. This Amendment reflects that, following the Transaction, as of the date hereof, each Reporting Person has ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of securities of the Issuer.
