Acquisition History
In July, 2008 Jinduicheng Molybdenum Group Co. Ltd. (JDC) and Northwest Nonferrous International Investment Company Ltd. (NWII) of China, acquired all of the public shares of Yukon Zinc Corporation. The Company is now private and is no longer trading on the TSX.V.
In 2003 and 2004, Yukon Zinc (formerly Expatriate Resources) spun-off two companies to sharpen its focus on the emerging Finlayson District in the Yukon, StrataGold Corporation in 2003 and Pacifica Resources Ltd. in 2004. The sale of the gold assets to StrataGold and public financing of StrataGold created significant value for Expatriate shareholders. The second reorganization of our assets was the spin-off of the non-Finlayson District exploration properties to Pacifica Resources Ltd. symbol PAX.TSX-V (Now Selwyn Resources SWN.TSX-V), following which it distributed the Pacifica shares to shareholders and changed its name to Yukon Zinc Corporation. Yukon Zinc currently holds 5.4% of Selwyn.
