Section 8 – Other Events

 

Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On August 23, 2016, the Ontario Ministry of Northern Development and Mines ("MNDM") acknowledged its receipt of the exploration plan submitted by Gold Lakes Corp. (the "Company") for the Big Monty Property in the Township of Frecheville in Ontario, Canada. MNDM's acknowledgment letter indicates that the Company's exploration plan has been sent to two local Aboriginal communities for review and comment, as required by the notice and consultation provisions of the Ontario Mining Act. The acknowledgment letter states that, unless otherwise directed by the MNDM Director of Exploration, the Company's exploration activities can commence on September 21, 2016, and the plan will be effective for a period of two years thereafter.

 

On August 24, 2016, MNDM also acknowledged its receipt of the exploration permit application submitted by the Company for the Big Monty Property. MNDM's acknowledgment letter indicates that the Company's exploration permit application has been sent to the same two Aboriginal communities for review and comment. MNDM has also posted a proposal for the exploration permit on Ontario's Environmental Registry, where it will be available for public review and comment for a period of 30 days. Depending on the comments MNDM may receive, the Company may be required to participate in the consultation process and provide further information regarding its proposed exploration activities. The MNDM Director of Exploration expects to make a decision with regard to the Company's permit application within approximately 31 to 50 days.

 

In light of MNDM's recent correspondence, the Company plans to begin exploration activities pursuant to its exploration plan in September. The Company's exploration activities requiring a permit will commence when the permit application is fully processed and approved.
