06 January 2011 - 5:59AM
Marketwired
Parlane Resource Corp. (TSX VENTURE: PPP) (the "Company") has
closed the transaction with Derrick Strickland of Vancouver,
British Columba ("Strickland") whereby Parlane can acquire (the
"Option") an undivided 100% interest in 31 claims covering
approximately 14,366 hectares located in the prolific Omineca
Mining Division of British Columbia, generally collectively known
and described as the NW1 Project, and now called the Big Bear
Project ("Big Bear") (See press release dated November 29, 2010).
The Company has made a cash payment of $150,000 to Mr.
Strickland, and issued 300,000 shares and 300,000 warrants as the
first year's consideration for the Option. Additionally, a finder's
fee related to the transaction was paid to an arms' length party in
the form of cash ($14,000) and 34,000 shares for Year 1. All
securities issued pursuant to the transaction are restricted from
trading for a period of four months and one day.
The Big Bear Project is located in central B.C., southwest of
Prince George, and is accessible by road from Vanderhoof. The
optioned claims lie in proximity to the Blackwater Gold Project
owned by Richfield Ventures Corp. (Symbol: RVC - TSXV). The
Blackwater Gold Project has historically been viewed as a high
grade gold vein target and was explored with that premise by
previous operators. Richfield Ventures recently reported
identifying high grade gold on their property, with drilling
focused on testing the continuity and size of their bulk tonnage
gold system (see Richfield's press release of November 2,
2010).
Financing
The Company also announces that it has closed a non-brokered
private placement of 5,000,000 Units at a price of $0.20 per unit,
for gross proceeds of $1,000,000. Each unit is comprised of one
common share of Parlane and one-half of one common share purchase
warrant, each whole warrant exercisable for a period of two years
from the date of issue to purchase one common share of Parlane at a
price of $0.35 per share. The private placement includes an
accelerated expiry feature that can be triggered at the discretion
of management should the shares of Parlane trade over $0.50 for a
period of 20 consecutive trading days on the Exchange. Should the
Company issue notice of such accelerated expiry, the warrants will
expire 60 days thereafter.
Finder's fees in the aggregate amount of $45,600 and 285,000
warrants were paid to various finders for portions of the financing
attributable to such finders' efforts. In addition to working
capital, proceeds of the financing will be applied toward the
Company's commitments and exploration programs.
All securities issued pursuant to the financing are restricted
from trading for a period of four months and one day.
The Company also announces that pursuant to TSX Venture Exchange
(the "Exchange") policies and the Company's rolling Stock Option
Plan approved by shareholders, an aggregate of 534,000 incentive
stock options have been granted to directors, officers, key
employees and consultants at a price of $0.20 per share. The
options are exercisable for a period of five years, ending on
January 5, 2016, and are subject to the requirements of the
Exchange.
