Canadian Uranium has signed an agreement to purchase all of Rook 2 Uranium’s issued and outstanding common shares through a three-cornered amalgamation.

Rook 2 currently holds the exclusive option to secure full ownership of 21 mineral claims covering approximately 18,941 hectares (ha) in Saskatchewan, Canada (the property).

The transaction, to be carried out under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), involves Canadian Uranium, a newly formed subsidiary for this purpose, and Rook 2.

As per the agreement, Rook 2 will merge with the subsidiary and shareholders of Rook 2 will receive one Canadian Uranium share for each share they hold in Rook 2.

An estimated total of 9,663,156 shares of Canadian Uranium will be issued to existing shareholders of Rook 2 as consideration for all outstanding shares of the latter.

Following the completion of the transaction, the resultant entity will function as a wholly owned subsidiary of Canadian Uranium.

No finder’s fees will be involved in this transaction and both companies will maintain an independent relationship.

The transaction's completion depends on customary conditions including obtaining all necessary regulatory approvals and consent from Rook 2 shareholders.

There is no certainty that the transaction will conclude as expected or at all.

Rook 2 secured an option to fully acquire the property through a sale agreement in November 2025.

To exercise this option, Rook 2 issued 1,000,000 shares to the optionor on the date of the agreement.

Canadian Uranium veteran and London-based director Ed Marlow said: “As we look to the future, we are excited to build a world-class team and company from the strong foundation we have laid over the past three years.

“We have worked hard to secure what we believe are the best assets in the industry, and the Rook 2 asset is particularly exciting for us – starting from a historic resource in the prolific Athabasca Basin is a great advantage.

“We are also proud to honour our roots from the Titan Uranium days by bringing back familiar faces who have been contributors and had success in the Athabasca. Bottom line, something truly special is coming together, and we can’t wait to show the world what is next.”
