SASKATOON, Feb. 8, 2018 /CNW/ - Kenneth E. MacNeill,
President and CEO of Shore Gold Inc. ("Shore" or the "Corporation")
is pleased to announce that Shore has changed its name to Star
Diamond Corporation. Effective at the start of trading on
February 12, 2018, Star Diamond
Corporation will also commence trading on the Toronto Stock
Exchange under this new name and a new stock symbol
"DIAM".
This new corporate name is in honour of the Star Kimberlite,
located in the Fort à la Corne forest of Saskatchewan, Canada. It was the exploration
and evaluation work completed on the Star Kimberlite that
demonstrated the significant quality, size and value of the
contained diamond populations. These high value diamonds
facilitated the consolidation and advancement of the Corporation's
Fort à la Corne area kimberlites, including the Star - Orion South
Diamond Project.
The name change does not affect the rights of the Corporation's
shareholders. No further action is required by existing
shareholders with respect to the name change, and certificates
representing common shares of Shore Gold Inc. will not need to be
surrendered or exchanged unless a transfer is being requested.
Shareholders had previously approved a special resolution to allow
an amendment to the Articles of the Corporation to change the name
of the Corporation at the Corporation's 2017 Annual and Special
Meeting of Shareholders.
Following this name change, Shore's domain name will change
to www.stardiamondcorp.com and visitors to our
current website address and communication to our current electronic
mail addresses will be redirected.
On behalf of the Board,
Kenneth E. MacNeill
President and CEO
