Aris Gold (TSX: ARIS; US-OTC: ALLXF) was formed this year from predecessor company Caldas Gold. In November, Caldas announced the upcoming name change, along with an C$85 million subscription receipt offering and a new board and management team.
The new management — with Neil Woodyer as CEO — includes team members that played key roles with both Leagold Mining (the company merged with Equinox Gold (TSX: EQX; NYSE: EQX) in March 2020) and Endeavour Mining (TSX: EDV; US-OTC: EDVMF).
