Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 26, 2017) - Fairmont Resources Inc. (TSXV: FMR) ("Fairmont" or the "Company") announces that, in connection with its Granitos de Badajoz ("Grabasa") acquisition, the company's lawyers in Spain received on May 26, 2017, a resolution stating that the offer to acquire the assets of Grabasa has been terminated by the Court, located in Badajoz, Spain. Fairmont's lawyers have identified several key points which may be considered legally inaccurate.
On that ground, Fairmont will appeal the court's ruling on several points. As well, it is a very serious situation that it appears the court ruling was leaked to the media before Fairmont was notified. Fairmont expects to file a complaint in relation to this leak. The leak appears to be malicious and with the intent to damage the reputation of Fairmont with the local community and former employees of Grabasa in Spain.
Fairmont is also pursuing additional options to complete the acquisition of Grabasa and is committed to bringing Grabasa back into production and bringing jobs back to the region.
