AuMEGA Metals Closes the First Tranche of Private Placement Financing - Seite 2
The proceeds from the Financing will be used primarily to advance the Company's exploration program in Newfoundland and Labrador, which is expected to include the Company's largest drill program in the last three years of up to 20,000 metres with an aim to grow the existing Mineral Resource and discovery at the highly prospective Bunker Hill Project. Additionally, the Company will continue to invest in early-stage exploration activities to further define and advance new and existing targets at Hermitage and Malachite. Finally, proceeds from the Financing will also be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
All securities will be subject to a hold period in Canada of four months plus a day from the date of issuance and rules on the resale of the securities in Canada will apply in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws. The hold period for the New Shares sold in the Tranche One Placement ends on March 1, 2025. Securities issued to non-Canadian investors for trading on ASX will be freely tradeable.
