Vancouver, B.C., August 6, 2014: American CuMo Mining Corporation (“CuMoCo” or the “Company”) (TSXV: MLY; OTCQX: MLYCF) is pleased to announce that on Friday August 1, 2014, at the request of legal counsel for International Energy & Mineral Resources Investment (Hong Kong) Company Limited (“IEMR HK”), the British Columbia Supreme Court Judge adjourned the hearing to appoint a receiver-manager for CuMoCo. Legal counsel for IEMR HK applied for an adjournment following the filing by the Company of affidavits that presented substantial evidence that contradicted the affidavits presented on behalf of IEMR HK by Mrs. Fu, the wife of Hongxue Fu, ex-chairman, expresident, and currently a director of the Company and the controlling person of IEMR HK and by Charles Yuen, ex vice–president and currently a director of the Company. Legal counsel for IEMR HK requested the adjournment in order to obtain an affidavit from Hongxue Fu himself, who is currently in China.
The Company will continue to defend itself from this lawsuit that IEMR HK filed the same day the voting results were revealed at the shareholder-requisitioned general meeting of shareholders held on July 22, 2014.
As a result of Mr. Thomas Conway being elected as an additional director of the Company and subsequent motions passed by the new Board of Directors, CuMoCo is proceeding forward with the business of the Company and entering into discussions with various groups to arrange necessary financing to fund the activities of the Company and to remove the debentures that are being used by IEMR HK in an attempt to appoint a receiver. The Company is also investigating possible merger and joint venture opportunities to move the CuMo Project forward.
