Emgold Mining Corporation (the "Company" or "Emgold") (TSX
VENTURE:EMR)(OTCBB:EGMCF)(FRANKFURT:EML) is pleased to announce that with the
strength of investor interest, it has elected to increase the amount of its
previously announced non-brokered private placement financing (see Emgold's
October 26th, 2011 Press Release). The Company has elected to increase the
offering from CDN$1,000,000 to a maximum of CDN$2,000,000. This will result in
issuance of up to an additional 10,000,000 Units (an aggregate of up to
20,000,000 Units) at the price of CDN$0.10 per Unit, with each Unit consisting
of one common share of the Company and one non-transferable share purchase
warrant (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase, for a
period of 24 months, one additional common share of the Company at a price of
CDN$0.15. The Shares issued in connection with this non-brokered private
placement, including any issued on the exercise of the Warrants, will be subject
to a minimum hold period of four months.
Finder's fees comprised of up to 8% cash and 8% in finder's warrants may be
payable in connection with some or all of the offering in accordance with TSX
Venture Exchange policies. Each finder's warrant would be exercisable for one
Share at a price of $0.15, for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance.
Shares issued on the exercise of the finder's warrants would also be subject to
a minimum hold period of four months.
The initial closing of the financing is expected to occur as early as November
8th 2011 and is subject to all necessary regulatory approvals. The proceeds of
the financing will be primarily used for exploration activity on the Company's
Buckskin Rawhide Property in Nevada, property acquisition in Nevada, exploration
of its Stewart Property in British Columbia, and general working capital.
