Pediment Gold Corp. and Argonaut Gold Inc. Announce New Meeting Dates

16.12.2010  |  Marketwire
TORONTO, 12/16/10 - Argonaut Gold Inc. (TSX: AR) ('Argonaut') and Pediment Gold Corp. (TSX: PEZ)(OTCBB: PEZGF) ('Pediment') announce that, further to their November 22, 2010 announcement of the extension of the deadline for the completion of their business combination transaction from December 23, 2010 to January 31, 2011, the meetings of Argonaut and Pediment shareholders to approve the transaction have now been rescheduled to take place on January 24, 2011. The extension of the completion deadline was implemented to allow Pediment and Argonaut time to investigate proposed amendments to the local environmental laws in the State of Baja California Sur, Mexico the ('BCS') which, if implemented, could adversely affect Pediment's ability to secure a building licence for the development of its San Antonio Project as currently envisioned.

Based on the information received to date, the parties understand that the legislation, as originally proposed, has not been approved by the Governor and the Governor has stated publicly that it will not be approved in its current form. The current sitting of the BCS legislature has now ended. The legislature is not expected to resume sitting until March 2011, at which time new members and a new Governor will be sworn in following elections. There can be no certainty with respect to future legislative action, however, Pediment and Argonaut have held meetings with a variety of local stakeholders and legislators and believe there is broad opposition to the proposed legislation and support for the San Antonio Project.
