Maritime Resources

What Maritime Resources does

Maritime Resources Corp. was a Canadian gold and base metal exploration and development company headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, with primary operations in Newfoundland and Labrador. The company's flagship asset was the 100%-owned Hammerdown Gold Project, a high-grade deposit for which a Preliminary Economic Assessment projected an after-tax base-case NPV of $199.2M and 251,287 ounces of recovered gold over a 13-year mine life at average LOM cash costs of US$2,149/oz. Maritime employed a hub-and-spoke processing model, feeding Hammerdown ore to its Pine Cove Mill for gold extraction. The business model was straightforward commodity production: gold extracted and processed is sold directly to gold buyers and commodity markets at prevailing market prices, with no proprietary pricing or contracted offtake structure disclosed.

The company operated with 11-50 employees and funded development through a series of private placements. In March 2025 it closed an up to $15 million financing with participation from Eric Sprott and Dundee Corporation, followed in November 2025 by a $20 million brokered private placement led by Paradigm Capital Inc. and SCP Resource Finance LP. Maritime completed major permitting for Hammerdown, achieved first mill feed shipment in October 2025, and commenced initial gold production at Pine Cove. In November 2025, New Found Gold Corp. (NYSE: NFGC) completed a statutory arrangement to acquire Maritime Resources, making it a wholly-owned subsidiary and combining Hammerdown with New Found Gold's Queensway project to form an emerging Canadian gold producer with Newfoundland operational synergies.
