VANCOUVER, BC, Dec. 10,
2024 /CNW/ - 1911 Gold Corporation
("1911 Gold" or the "Company") (TSXV: AUMB) is
pleased to announce that it has upsized its previously announced
non-brokered private placement offering to now raise aggregate
gross proceeds of up to $8,100,000
(the "Offering"). The Offering has also been amended to now
include a combination of (i) common shares in the capital of the
Company that will qualify as "flow-through shares" within the
meaning of subsection 66(15) of the ITA issuable to residents of
Manitoba (the "Manitoba FT
Shares" and, together with the National FT Shares, the "FT
Shares") at a price of $0.239 per
Manitoba FT Share, (ii) common shares in the capital of the Company
that will qualify as "flow-through shares" within the meaning of
subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) ("ITA") (the "National FT
Shares") at a price of $0.185 per
National FT Share, and (iii) common shares in the capital of the
Company (the "Common Shares") at a price of $0.145 per Common Share.
The proceeds raised from the Offering will be used by the
Company as follows: (i) an amount equal to the gross proceeds
received by the Company from the sale of the FT Shares are expected
to be used to fund exploration programs qualifying as "Canadian
Exploration Expenses" and "flow-through mining expenditures" (as
those terms are defined in the ITA) at the Company's projects in
Manitoba; and (ii) the net
proceeds from the sale of the Common Shares are expected to be used
primarily to fund the ongoing review and optimization of the future
underground mining operations as well as for general corporate
purposes.
The closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about
December 23, 2024, or such other date
as the Company may determine, and is subject to receipt of all
applicable regulatory approvals, including, but not limited to, the
acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"). The
Offering will be made by way of private placement in each of the
provinces of Canada pursuant to
applicable exemptions from the prospectus requirements under
applicable Canadian securities laws. The securities issued under
the Offering will be subject to a four-month statutory hold period
under applicable Canadian securities laws.
The securities offered have not been, nor will they be,
registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or any state securities law, and may not be offered or
sold in the United States absent
registration or an exemption from such registration requirements.
This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the
solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the
securities in any State in which such offer, solicitation or sale
would be unlawful.
