W0I Copper Lake Resources Ltd

Copper Lake Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: CPL, Frankfurt: W0I) ("Copper Lake" or the "Company") announces that it has closed the second and final tranche (the “Final Tranche”) of its non-brokered private placement (the “Offering”) previously announced on November 17, 2023 (the “Private Placement”).

Under the final tranche closing of the Offering, the Company issued 9,040,000 flow-through units (“FT Units”) at a price of $0.025 per FT Unit and 2,520,000 non flow-through units (“NFT Units”) at a price of $0.025 per NFT Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $289,000. Each FT Unit consists of one flow-through common share and one-half of a common share purchase warrant (a “FT Warrant”), with each Warrant being exercisable at $0.10 for 24 months. Each NFT Unit consists of one common share and one Warrant, with each Warrant being exercisable at $0.10 for 36 months.

The Company has raised a total of $839,000 and issued 14,720,000 NFT Units and 18,840,000 FT Units in connection with both tranches of the Offering, and paid total finders’ fees of $21,700 in cash, issued 308,000 NFT Units and issued 1,176,000 non-transferable finders’ warrants exercisable at $0.10 for a period of 36 months from the closing date.

The Warrants are subject to an accelerated expiry date clause whereby at any time following the expiry of the four-months and one day hold period, should the weighted average closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSX-V”) be more than $0.20 for a period of 15 consecutive trading days, the Company shall be entitled to accelerate the expiry date of the warrants to a date which is 30 days following the date on which the Company announces the accelerated expiry of the Warrants by press release.

The proceeds from the issuance of the FT Units will be used to incur qualified Canadian exploration expenses for planned exploration work on the Marshall Lake copper-zinc-silver-gold property. Net proceeds from the issuance of the NFT Units will be used for general corporate purposes, as well as supporting work on the Marshall Lake property. Additionally, the use of proceeds does not include any proposed payments to non-arms length parties nor any payments to persons conducting Investor Relations activities.

Certain insiders of the company purchased 1,240,000 FT Units and 800,000 NFT Units under the second tranche of the Private Placement and such participation is considered to be a “related party transaction” pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 (MI 61-101"). The Company intends to rely on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in Section 5.5(a) and Section 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in respect of such insider participation.

The Private Placement has been conditionally approved by the TSX Venture Exchange but completion of the private placement and payment of any finders’ fees remain subject to the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, including approval of the TSX-V.

In accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws, all securities issued pursuant to the private placement will have a hold period of four months and one day from the date of issuance.
