Juggernaut Expands Financing From $1,500,000 to $2,800,000 Due to Strong Demand From Institutions and Key Strategic Investors...
22 February 2021 - 11:45PM
Juggernaut Exploration Ltd. (TSX-V: JUGR) (OTCQB: JUGRF)
(FSE: 4JE) (the “Company” or “Juggernaut”) is pleased to
report its previously announced non-brokered flow through financing
consisting of units priced at $0.355 with a two year warrant priced
at $0.375 of up to $1,500,000 on February 8th has been increased up
to $2,800,000. Crescat Capital LLC (“Crescat”) has agreed to make a
strategic investment representing a 9.90% ownership of the Company
post funding. As part of the terms, they will also have an option
to participate in future financings to maintain their 9.90%
interest for a three-year period from the date of closing scheduled
for March 5, 2021.
“Crescat is taking an activist approach to
investing in the precious metals mining industry today. Our goal at
this stage of the cycle is to identify and invest in a portfolio of
potentially big, high-grade discoveries in the hands of undervalued
juniors where we can help unlock value. We are excited about
Juggernaut and the discovery potential of its assets,” remarked
Kevin Smith, Crescat’s founder and Chief Investment Officer.
Dr. Quinton Hennigh has taken on the role as
special technical advisor to the Company. He is the technical
consultant for all Crescat’s gold and silver mining investments.
Dr. Hennigh is a world-renowned exploration geologist with more
than 30 years of experience including with major gold mining firms
Homestake Mining, Newcrest Mining, and Newmont Mining.
Dr. Hennigh stated “Juggernaut has a portfolio
of promising early stage projects in and around the Golden
Triangle, British Columbia. Funds from this placement will be used
to undertake some fundamental exploration work with the aim of
quickly generating new drill targets at some of its projects. In
particular, the Midas property displays good potential for precious
metal-rich volcanogenic massive sulfide discovery of “Eskay Creek”
style. Although a fair amount of geologic work was undertaken at
Midas over the past couple years, it is clear that the area of
exploration interest is far larger than previously perceived and
that the lion’s share of prospectivity remains untested. This is a
classic opportunity whereby Crescat applies its friendly activist
strategy toward building exploration strategy and helping to
capitalize it.”

The flow through funding will consist of up to
7,887.324 flow through units (“FT Units”), priced at $0.355 each
for gross proceeds of up to $2,800,000. Each FT Unit will consist
of one flow-through common share plus one warrant to purchase one
non flow-through common share at $0.375 for a twenty-four month
period. Upon completion of the flow through offering, Crescat has
agreed to acquire a majority of these units representing a 9.90%
ownership in the Company post financing.
Directors and officers of the company may
acquire securities under the placement, which participation would
be considered to be a “related party transaction” as defined under
Multilateral Instrument 61-101 (“MI 61-101”). Such participation is
expected to be exempt from the formal valuation and minority
shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101.
Mr. Dan Stuart, Director, President and
CEO of Juggernaut states:
“We are pleased to welcome both Crescat Capital
as a strategic investor and Dr. Hennigh as a Special Technical
Advisor and investor. I look forward to working with our new
partners who bring a proven track record of both financial and
technical strength. This will enable Juggernaut to unlock the full
potential of its assets over the long term, building value for all
shareholders. This investment and strategic partnership, coupled
with the ongoing institutional support and interest from senior
miners, is a strong endorsement that clearly demonstrates the
significant near term discovery potential of four 100% controlled
properties. With a very tight capital structure, no debt and a
strong cash position, we are well positioned to move forward with
exploration and drilling programs on our properties this summer.
With much anticipation, we look forward to executing the inaugural
drill and exploration programs and reporting results.”
The Company will pay finder's fees of the gross
proceeds from the financing in cash, and compensation options on
the same terms and pricing as the units being sold. This
non-brokered private placement is subject to TSX Venture Exchange
approval. All shares issued pursuant to this offering and any
shares issued pursuant to the exercise of warrants will be subject
to a four-month hold period from the closing date.
