VANCOUVER, June 26, 2015 /CNW/ - Equitas Resources Corp. (TSXv: EQT) (FSE: T6UN) ("Equitas" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has arranged a non-brokered private placement of 6,000,000 units ("Units") of the Company at a price of $0.085 per Unit for gross proceeds of $510,000. 

Each Unit will consist of one common share and one share purchase warrant ("Warrant").  Each Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional common share of the Company at a price of $0.15 per share for a period of 24 months from closing.

All the securities issuable will be subject to a four-month hold period from the date of closing. A finder's fee may be payable in accordance with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange.  The private placement is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Zimtu Capital Corp., an insider of the Company, will participate in the private placement. Zimtu intends to sell up to 4,000,000 of its previously owned common shares of Equitas to arms-length investors prior to closing of the private placement and will use the proceeds from the sale to participate in this financing.
