MCC Sells 51% Stake in Quebec's Sakami Property to Visible Gold

Summarized from GlobalNewswire

Morocco Strategic Minerals closes a revised deal giving Visible Gold a majority stake in the Sakami property, with an option for the rest.

Morocco Strategic Minerals Corp (TSXV: MCC) just handed over majority control of its Sakami property in Quebec's James Bay region. On September 2, 2026, the company closed a revised purchase and option agreement with Visible Gold Mines Inc. (TSXV: VGD), locking in a 51% stake sale to the buyer right out of the gate.

This isn't just a straight asset sale — Visible Gold also scored an exclusive option to grab the remaining 49%. That means VGD could eventually own the whole thing. Shareholder approval from MCC is still required before the second tranche closes, so watch for that catalyst on the calendar.

Sakami sits in the James Bay region of Quebec, a jurisdiction that's become one of the hottest addresses for critical minerals and gold exploration in Canada. The region's infrastructure push and mineral-rich geology have drawn serious capital over the past few years, making this deal more than just a corporate reshuffling.

If you're watching MCC or VGD, the next trigger is that shareholder vote. Until then, Visible Gold is operating with a controlling interest but the full picture isn't settled yet. Continue reading at GlobalNewswire.
