Overall, a total of $1,699,296 was raised by the issuance of flow through shares (all tranches of flow through shares) at a price of $0.205 per flow through share, and $816,454 was raised by the issuance of all units, at a price of $0.14 per unit. Each unit is comprised of one common share and one purchase warrant entitling the holder to acquire one additional common share at a price of $0.215 per share for 18 months.
The final tranche closing, included in the above, resulted in the issuance of: (i) 536,585 flow through shares for gross proceeds of $110,000; and (ii) 350,000 units at a price of $0.14 per unit, for gross proceeds of $49,000.
The proceeds from the issuance of flow through shares shall be used allowing investors to claim deductions for the Company’s Canadian Exploration Expenditures (CEE), reducing an investor’s Canadian taxes.
Officers, directors, and other insiders subscribed for an aggregate $643,657 of the gross proceeds, which resulted in related party considerations pursuant to TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.9 and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). Canadian Gold Corp. relied on the exemptions contained in section 5.5(a) of MI 61-101 for an exemption from the formal valuation requirement and Section 5.7(a) of MI 61- 101 for an exemption from the minority approval requirement as the fair market value of the securities distributed under the offering, insofar as it involved interested parties, did not exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.
In connection with all closings for this placement, the Company paid an aggregate $108,824 in finders fees to eligible finders.
As announced on November 8, 2023, the Phase 2 drilling program is still ongoing, with two holes completed to date (950 metres in total), each of which successfully intersected the Main Zone.
