On May 3rd 2007, Cypress announced a private placement of 4,000,000 units at a price of $0.65 per unit with Goldcorp Inc. Each unit consists of one common share and one non-transferable share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles Goldcorp to purchase an additional common share of the Company at an exercise price of $1.00 per common share in the 1st year and $1.30 per common share in the 2nd year. This private placement is being utilized to augment the Cypress Development Resources\' drill program on the Broulan Reef property.
As of May 3rd 2007, Goldcorp owned common shares representing approximately 4.8% of the issued and outstanding shares of Cypress Development Corp.
Today, Mr. Kevin McArthur of Goldcorp reported that Goldcorp Inc. (TSX: G) and Gold Eagle Mines Ltd. (TSX: GEA) have signed an agreement whereby Goldcorp will acquire, through a friendly plan of arrangement, all outstanding shares of Gold Eagle Mines.
\"This transaction secures for Goldcorp full control of eight kilometres of strike length in the heart of the world\'s richest high-grade gold district,\" said Kevin McArthur, Goldcorp\'s president and chief executive officer. \"Nearly 200 drill holes have defined an impressive gold deposit at Bruce Channel, with potential for additional expansion over time. Development of this strategically important zone can now move forward with our adjoining assets as a single, comprehensive project, sharing mine infrastructure, ore processing facilities and human talent with Red Lake, thus minimizing capital and operating costs and maximizing long-term shareholder value. Red Lake mine has operated for over 50 years, and Goldcorp\'s continued district consolidation efforts are designed to sustain this world-class operation for decades into the future. We are the natural partner to develop the Bruce Channel project with the geographic footprint preferred by our community.\"
Cypress Development\'s and Skyharbour Resources\' Broulan Reef property is now the only property along the productive Bruce Channel trend that is not now controlled by Goldcorp.
