In a move aimed at consolidating its position in the El Tranquilo concession block, Patagonia Gold Corp. (TSXV:PGDC) has closed a transaction to reacquire the COSE property from Pan American Silver (TSX:PAAS).
The agreement, which was signed between the two entities, sees Patagonia Gold assume any liabilities associated with COSE and the remaining closure costs, primarily related to ongoing environmental monitoring.

The move is expected to provide Patagonia with enhanced operational flexibility and control over its mining activities in the region. By consolidating its holdings in the El Tranquilo concession block, the company aims to streamline its operations and capitalize on the untapped potential of the area.
