West Mining's Retained British Columbia Exploration Portfolio
Following the Junker Property divestiture, West Mining's primary focus remains the 100% owned Spanish Mountain West Property in central British Columbia, where the company is actively exploring for copper, gold, and silver. The company also holds a 100% interest in the Kena Property, which has been optioned to Upside Gold Corp.

Share Consideration and Hold Period Implications for Investors
The 125,000 Hi-View common shares received as part of the transaction will be restricted under a four-month hold period per applicable securities regulations, meaning West Mining cannot freely trade those shares immediately upon closing. The aggregate value of the share consideration will depend on Hi-View's market price at the time the hold period expires. The company did not disclose any valuation of the Hi-View shares in the announcement. The immediate share price impact on West Mining (CSE: WEST) was not clear from available public information.
