The CEO screwed the shareholders with the reverse split.
Second Tuesday of next week. :)
What are the odds of a reverse split as part of the merger?
Is PAOG being acquired or are they acquiring someone else?
What does PAOG have to offer that anyone would want to R/M with it?
Say what?
PAOG and RBII are the turkeys.
Same here. Good luck to us all. We'll need it.
I would argue that PAOG hasn't shown much respect for shareholders to-date. What makes you think they'll start now?
What did they correct in the second version?
Which entity is the less stinky or are they both about the same?
Does PAOG not exist after the realignment?
I suspected Highsmith was out of gas when he did the Ellis Martin Report.
Nothing scarier than watching management unapologetically running this company into the ground.
I'm giving PEMIF a few weeks to reorganize and announce a PR. If not, I'm out.
Highsmith out!
PURE ENERGY ANNOUNCES MANAGEMENT RESTRUCTURING
DENVER, CO – (30 October 2018) – Pure Energy Minerals Limited (TSX VENTURE:PE) (OTCQB:PEMIF) (the “Company” or “Pure Energy”) announces a management restructuring under which the board of directors is assuming day-to-day leadership of the Company for a period of time. Mr. Patrick Highsmith and Mr. Paul Zink have tendered their resignations from the Company as CEO and CFO, respectively, effective 31 October 2018.
Mr. Highsmith joined the Company as a member of the board of directors in November 2015 and later accepted the role as CEO in March of 2016. The board of directors wishes to thank him for his strong technical and market leadership and dedicated service to the Company. Mr. Highsmith will be pursuing other opportunities, but will remain a member of the Pure Energy board of directors.
Mr. Zink joined the Company in June of 2017 as CFO. He has had a long career in the mining industry, spanning roles as analyst on Wall Street through to senior management positions in small to medium sized mining companies. The Pure Energy team wishes Mr. Zink good fortune as he pursues other opportunities. He will continue to be engaged with the Company on a consulting basis as needed.
Mr. Frank Wells, an independent director and chairman of the audit committee, has assumed the role of interim CFO for Pure Energy Minerals. Mr. Wells is a seasoned mining industry financial analyst and corporate officer.
Independent director, Ms. Mary Little, commented about the new path for Pure Energy, “We are engaged in discussions with potential new strategic investors and partners in regard to securing financing that would allow us to ramp the Clayton Valley Project back up and progress towards building the pilot plant. The board of directors is also engaged in an active search for a new CEO. Upon successful closure of a financing, we expect to see project activity increase markedly as the technical team remains engaged.”
Ms. Little also commented about the departures from the management team, “I have worked with Patrick for almost three years now in Pure Energy. He has helped us deliver excellent technical work on the Clayton Valley Project, including the Preliminary Economic Assessment and the basic design for the pilot plant, which is the next major milestone for the project. We look forward to realizing some of the goals in 2019 that we set together, and we are glad he will remain on the board to see that happen. I have also known Paul Zink for many years. He is one of the most trustworthy and competent CFOs with whom I have worked. We are pleased that he will remain a consultant to the Company to achieve continuity.”
The Company continues to work diligently to seek financing to meet its cash needs. Discussions regarding equity and debt arrangements are active with multiple interested parties, but there can be no assurance that financings will be completed in time to meet the next option payment deadline to GeoXplor and Clayton Valley Lithium (See Company news release dated October 15, 2018). If the Company fails to make the option payments by the deadlines, the optionors have the ability to initiate a default process, subject to a 30-day cure period, under the Clayton Valley option agreement dated May 10, 2017 and amended in June, August, and October of 2018 (the “Option Agreement”). While there are significant areas of Federal mining claims including inferred mineral resources and exploration drill targets under the Company’s control and in good standing that are not part of the Option Agreement, the claims governed by the Option Agreement include the majority of the inferred mineral resource at the CV Project. (See Company news release dated June 26, 2017)

On behalf of the Board of Directors,
“Patrick Highsmith”
Chief Executive Officer
Absolutely!
I suspect never.
This is on its way to becoming a penny stock - again.
Agreed.
I think the company is toast.
Pink-sheet-itis.
It's becoming clear in my mind that Cannophen doesn't exist and is purely a story to sell shares.
Do the current clinics even exist? Does anyone live near one to verify whether there's activity?
I suspect Hall and Newbauer have watched too many episodes of "Flip that House".
Are we talking about the same stock? PEMIF was trading in the .30-40 range back in August.
Pure Energy is looking like Pure Crap.
Let's hope your (you're) correct.
I concur.
I contacted Mr. Guerrero on 9-17 inquiring as to when we might see any updates. Response below.
He insinuated it.
Where is Cannophen in the FDA approval process and where is the money coming from to do it?
Management does have access to a label maker and a propensity to distort the truth.
IMO.
Hall's interview was worthless, IMO, and a fluff-piece.
...and still no podcast. Broken promises all the way around.
Have they released the podcast yet?
Good luck with that.
Cooking the books takes time. :)
I sent an email on Friday to Leo @ IR regarding that very thing:
I'm not surprised by that. It's a shame Highsmith couldn't secure a deal with Tesla for plant financing, but instead Musk will be buying Lithium from around the world instead of his own backyard. Subpenny here we come!
