Skyharbour Resources Ltd.
(TSX-V: SYH
) (OTCQX:
SYHBF
) (Frankfurt: SC1P
) (“Skyharbour” or the
“Company”) is pleased to announce that is has closed the brokered
private placement previously announced by the Company on December
2, 2024, as upsized on December 3, 2024 (the “Brokered Offering”),
and has additionally closed a concurrent non-brokered private
placement (the “Non-Brokered Offering”, and together with the
Brokered Offering, the “Offering”), for aggregate gross proceeds to
the Company of C$10,020,000.
Jordan Trimble, President and CEO of Skyharbour,
stated: “Skyharbour is very well-funded for its drilling and
exploration plans in 2025, with the majority of the Offering placed
with several strategic institutional and corporate investors. Over
the next year, the Company anticipates the largest combined
drilling and exploration campaign at its core projects of Russell
Lake and Moore. This will follow up on successful drilling in 2024
at both projects, which included high-grade drill results and new
uranium discoveries. The Company also expects continuous cash and
share payments, as well as news flow, from its prospect generator
business, consisting of partner companies advancing numerous other
uranium projects throughout the Athabasca Basin.”
The Brokered Offering was completed through a
syndicate of agents co-led by Haywood Securities Inc. and Red Cloud
Securities Inc. (collectively, the “Agents”). Pursuant to the
Brokered Offering, the Company issued: (i) 5,000,000 hard dollar
units of the Company (the “Units”) at a price of C$0.40 per Unit;
(ii) 2,368,420 charity flow-through shares (the “Charity FT
Shares”) at a price per Charity FT Share of C$0.59; and (iii)
13,310,070 traditional flow-through shares (the “Traditional FT
Shares”) at a price per Traditional FT Share of C$0.46, for
aggregate gross proceeds under the Brokered Offering of
C$9,520,000.
Additionally, the Company has completed a
concurrent Non-Brokered Offering through the issuance of 1,250,000
Units at C$0.40 per Unit, for additional gross proceeds under the
Non-Brokered Offering of C$500,000 with one strategic investor.
Each Unit consists of one common share of the
Company (a “Share”) plus one-half of one common share purchase
warrant (each whole such warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant
entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Share (a “Warrant
Share”) at an exercise price of C$0.55 until June 20, 2027.
The gross proceeds from the sale of the Charity
FT Shares and the Traditional FT Shares will be used by the Company
to incur eligible “Canadian exploration expenses” that qualify as
“flow-through critical mineral mining expenditures” as both terms
are defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada), and will also be used
to incur “eligible flow-through mining expenditures” as defined in
The Mineral Exploration Tax Credit Regulations, 2014 (Saskatchewan)
(collectively, the “Qualifying Expenditures”) related to the
Company’s projects in Saskatchewan, on or before December 31, 2025,
and to renounce all Qualifying Expenditures in favour of such
subscribers effective December 31, 2024. The net proceeds from the
sale of Units will be used for the 2025 exploration and drilling
programs at the Company’s uranium projects in Saskatchewan, as well
as for general working capital purposes.
The Offering was conducted in accordance with
available prospectus exemptions pursuant to applicable Canadian
securities laws, with the securities issuable under the Offering
subject to a statutory hold period expiring on April 21, 2025.
In consideration for the services provided by
the Agents in connection with the Brokered Offering, on closing the
Company paid to the Agents a cash commission of 6.5% of the gross
proceeds raised under the Brokered Offering, and issued to the
Agents compensation options equal to 6.5% of the total number of
securities sold under the Brokered Offering (the “Compensation
Options”), other than with respect to president’s list orders for
which a 3.25% cash fee was paid and 3.25% Compensation Options were
issued. Each Compensation Option is exercisable at C$0.50 until
June 20, 2027. In connection with the Brokered Offering, the
Company paid aggregate cash commission fees of $589,550 and issued
1,294,525 Compensation Options. No fees were paid in connection
with the Non-Brokered Offering.
Directors and officers of the Company subscribed
for an aggregate of C$49,900 in gross proceeds under the Offering.

party transaction” under Multilateral Instrument 61-101
- Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special

5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, the Company is exempt from obtaining formal

About Skyharbour Resources Ltd.:
Skyharbour holds an extensive portfolio of
uranium exploration projects in Canada's Athabasca Basin and is
well positioned to benefit from improving uranium market
fundamentals with interest in twenty-nine projects, ten of which
are drill-ready, covering over 580,000 hectares (over 1.4 million
acres) of land. Skyharbour has acquired from Denison Mines, a large
strategic shareholder of the Company, a 100% interest in the Moore
Uranium Project, which is located 15 kilometres east of Denison's
Wheeler River project and 39 kilometres south of Cameco's McArthur
River uranium mine. Moore is an advanced-stage uranium exploration
property with high-grade uranium mineralization at the Maverick
Zone that returned drill results of up to 6.0% U3O8 over 5.9
metres, including 20.8% U3O8 over 1.5 metres at a vertical
depth of 265 metres. Adjacent to the Moore Project is the Russell
Lake Uranium Project, in which Skyharbour is an operator with
joint-venture partner Rio Tinto. The project hosts several
high-grade uranium drill intercepts over a large property area with
robust exploration upside potential. The Company is actively
advancing these projects through exploration and drill
programs.
Skyharbour also has joint ventures with industry
leader Orano Canada Inc., Azincourt Energy, and Thunderbird
Resources at the Preston, East Preston, and Hook Lake Projects
respectively. The Company also has several active earn-in option
partners, including CSE-listed Basin Uranium Corp. at the Mann Lake
Uranium Project; CSE-listed Medaro Mining Corp. at the Yurchison
Project; TSX-V listed North Shore Uranium at the Falcon Project;
UraEx Resources at the South Dufferin and Bolt Projects; Hatchet
Uranium at the Highway Project; Mustang Energy at the 914W Project;
and TSX-V listed Terra Clean Energy at the South Falcon East
Project which hosts the Fraser Lakes Zone B uranium and thorium
deposit. In aggregate, Skyharbour has now signed earn-in option
agreements with partners that total over $41 million in
partner-funded exploration expenditures, over $30 million worth of
shares being issued, and over $22 million in cash payments coming
into Skyharbour, assuming that these partner companies complete
their entire earn-ins at the respective projects.
Skyharbour's goal is to maximize shareholder
value through new mineral discoveries, committed long-term
partnerships, and the advancement of exploration projects in
geopolitically favourable jurisdictions.
