CANTEX ANNOUNCES CLOSING OF OVERSUBSCRIBED PRIVATE PLACEMENT; RAISES $5.28 MILLION
As previously announced, both Crescat Capital and Rob McEwen (founder of Goldcorp and McEwen Mining) are increasing their investment in Cantex through this placement.
The Company paid $151,969 in finders fees and issued 1,067,996 non-transferable finder's warrants (the "Finder's Warrants") to certain finders on this closing for their assistance in identifying back-end purchasers for the charity flow through offering and for identifying purchasers of Units. Of this, $36,652 was paid in cash, with the remaining $115,317 in fees settled with the issuance of 823,696 Units priced at $0.14/Unit. Each Finder's Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share (a " Finder Share") at an exercise price of $0.21 per Finder Share for a period of three years from the date of issuance of the Finder's Warrant.
The Company will be using the proceeds of the placement on its summer drill program at North Rackla which has now commenced. The Company is focused on expanding the mineralization at its zinc-lead-silver-germanium Massive Sulphide project and also testing new targets at the Copper project where previous drilling has intersected up to 7.32% copper (see news release of April 13, 2023).
The securities issued in this closing of the Offering are subject to a four-month hold period, expiring on December 15, 2025.
