Shareholder Asset Reunification Program (“SHARP”)

Eldorado has launched a shareholder asset reunification program. This program is at no cost to Eldorado. The voluntary program is designed to locate and assist shareholders in claiming the shares and/or cash due to them resulting from its previous Corporate Action events, such as a merger, acquisition, or plan of arrangement.  Eldorado has engaged Laurel Hill Advisory Group, “Laurel Hill”, to undertake this exercise. Laurel Hill will reach out directly to shareholders on behalf of Eldorado.


Following a merger or acquisition, many registered shareholders may have failed to deposit their shares in order to claim their cash and/or share entitlements. As a result, these positions are held in trust on behalf of “unexchanged” shareholders until they are claimed or subject to provincial unclaimed property regulations and/or U.S. escheatment or sunset clauses.


Eldorado has retained Laurel Hill to assist in identifying and assisting these unexchanged shareholders in order to reunite them with their entitlements. 


Companies include:

  • HRC Development Corporation
  • Afcan Mining Corporation
  • Fargo Resources Limited Intl/ Fargo Resources Ltd.
  • Lang Bay Resources Ltd.
  • Hibright Minerals
  • Frontier Pacific Mining Corporation
  • Kalahari Resources
  • Integra Gold Corporation

Should you hold unexchanged shares in the any of the Companies noted above, or have any questions, please contact Laurel Hill Advisory Group at:
