Almaden Files Memorial Documentation for US$1.06 billion Damages Claim Against
Mexico
Vancouver, B.C. Almaden Minerals Ltd. (?Almaden? or ?the Company?; TSX: AMM; OTCQB: AAUAF)
announces that it has filed its memorial submission (?Memorial?) relating to its international arbitration proceedings (the ?Claim?) under the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (?CPTPP?) with the United Mexican States (?Mexico?).
The Claim is being prosecuted pursuant to the established and enforceable legal framework of the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes and is financed by up to US$9.5 million in non-recourse litigation funding provided by a leading legal finance counterparty (see June 27, 2024 press release).
As further explained in the Company?s June 27, 2024 press release, Almaden is pursuing this Claim together with Almadex Minerals Ltd. (?Almadex?), on behalf of themselves and their Mexican subsidiaries (the ?Claimants?).
Prior to the illegal acts of Mexico which resulted in the complete loss of the investment, Almaden held 100% of the Ixtaca precious metals project in Mexico (the ?Project?), while Almadex held a 2.0% NSR royalty on the Project.
The Memorial outlines how Mexico breached its obligations under the CPTPP through actions which blocked the development of the Ixtaca project and ultimately retroactively and arbitrarily terminated the Company?s mineral concessions. Specifically, the Memorial demonstrates how Mexico (i) unlawfully expropriated the Claimants? protected investments without any compensation; (ii) failed to accord the Claimants? protected investments fair and equitable treatment; and (iii) unlawfully discriminated against the Claimants and their protected investments.
Based on a valuation by an independent quantum expert, the Claimants are seeking damages of US$1.06 billion, in the aggregate. This number will be further updated as the Claim proceeds, to reflect future movements in precious metal prices, exchange rates, interest rates, and other factors.
The Claimants? legal counsel for this arbitration are Boies, Schiller, Flexner, LLP, and RíosFerrer + Gutiérrez, S.C.
