Toronto, Ontario CANADA, January 28, 2014 /FSC/ - California Gold Mining Inc. (CGM - TSX Venture), ("California Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the preliminary order made by the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta and originally announced by the Company on January 13, 2014 has been varied. Pursuant to the original preliminary order, the Court deemed the annual and special meeting of shareholders of the Company originally scheduled for January 30, 2014 to be adjourned.
As a result of the variance of the preliminary order, the Company has been authorized to proceed with its annual and special meeting of shareholders on January 30, 2014 as originally scheduled in the notice of meeting. The Company would like to remind shareholders that the cut off time for submission of proxies is 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on January 29, 2014.
As of the opening of business on January 28, 2014, the Company had received proxies representing 84,962,912 common shares, or 58.1% of the total outstanding common shares. Of these proxies, a minimum of 98% have been voted in favour of all proposed resolutions and the Company's board of director nominees set forth in the Company's information circular.
The main hearing for the application brought by Mr. Shefsky and his holding company disclosed in the Company's December 23, 2013 press release is still scheduled to be heard on February 5, 2014. The Company continues to believe that the allegations made by Mr. Shefsky and his holding company are groundless and the Company is defending the matter vigorously. The Company will issue further news releases with respect to this matter as warranted.
