VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA–(Marketwire – Nov. 16, 2011) –
NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR TO US NEWSWIRE SERVICES.
Twin Glacier Resources Ltd. (CNSX:TEL) (“Twin” or the “Company“) announces that, at the Company’s Annual General and Special Meeting held on November 15, 2011 its shareholders voted in favour of approving the amalgamation (the “Amalgamation“) of the Company with Dolly Varden Silver Ltd. (“Dolly“) pursuant to an amalgamation agreement dated October 19, 2011 (the “Amalgamation Agreement“).
The Company has also been advised by Dolly that, at its Special General Meeting held on November 14, 2011, the Amalgamation was approved by the shareholders of Dolly.
Twin and Dolly are applying to the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV“) to list the shares of the amalgamated company on the TSXV. It is currently anticipated that, subject to Twin and Dolly obtaining listing approval from the TSXV and other conditions of closing, the Amalgamation will complete in December 2011. As set out in the Amalgamation Agreement, on the effective date, each Twin shareholder and each Dolly shareholder will receive one common share of the amalgamated company for each common share of Twin and Dolly held.
Investors are cautioned that, except as disclosed in the joint information circular of Twin and Dolly dated October 19, 2011, and available on Twin’s profile on the SEDAR website at www.sedar.com, any information released or received with respect to the Amalgamation may not be accurate or complete and should not be relied upon. Trading in the securities of Twin should be considered highly speculative.
The CNSX has in no way passed upon the merits of the Amalgamation and has neither approved or disapproved the contents of this press release.
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
