The Board of Directors of Cornerstone is also evaluating the transfer to Spinco of Cornerstone's interest in the generative exploration joint venture with Ecuadorian state mining company ENAMI EP, a joint venture which is currently exploring nine highly prospective concessions to the east, south, and south-west of the Cascabel concession.Cornerstone shareholders will receive shares of Spinco on a pro rata basis, and Cornerstone will be changing its name to Cascabel Gold & Copper Inc. Details of the proposed spin-off will be contained in an information circular to be mailed to Cornerstone shareholders and filed on SEDAR. Cornerstone intends to apply to list the shares of Spinco on the TSX Venture Exchange. The spin off will be subject to TSX Venture Exchange and Cornerstone shareholder approvals, with completion expected to be in the third or fourth quarter of this year.Commenting on the proposed transaction, Brooke Macdonald, President & CEO of Cornerstone, said: "When we acquired the Cascabel concession in 2011 and then, subsequently, created a joint venture in 2012 to explore the Cascabel concession together with SolGold plc, we had as our objective to advance the property to a stage where it could attract the interest of major mining companies to acquire the Cascabel concession and/or Cornerstone as it is our commitment to maximize shareholder value. That remains our objective for our Cascabel project as well as for all the highly prospective properties in our portfolio. By spinning off the other highly prospective properties we intend to unlock additional shareholder value and repeat our success at Cascabel. The same team of dedicated and experienced Cornerstone explorationists who found Cascabel and the same management team that formed the joint venture with ENAMI will be focused on developing Cornerstone Exploration."Additionally, the Company is announcing that Mr. Greg Chamandy will serve as the Chairman of Cascabel Gold & Copper Inc. Mr. Chamandy was the co-founder of Gildan Activewear and its former Chairman and CEO, the former Chairman and co-owner of Europe's Best frozen foods, the former Executive Chairman of Richmont Mines Inc., and serves on the Advisory Committee for Monarques Gold. Mr. Macdonald commented further, "We are very pleased to have such an experienced entrepreneur and gold industry investor such as Greg to work with, and look forward to the Company and its shareholders benefitting from his commitment to, and involvement in, the Company. Our current Chairman, Colin McKenzie, will remain a director of the Company and become Chairman of Cornerstone Exploration, and the remaining directors of the Company have agreed to also become directors of Cornerstone Exploration."The Board of Directors of the Company has approved the granting of 7.5 million stock options to directors, officers, consultants and employees of the Company under the Company's Stock Option Plan.
