VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 02, 2018 -- Thor Explorations Ltd. (TSX-V: THX) ("Thor" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with Sprott Capital Partners, a division of Sprott Private Wealth LP, as lead agent, which, together with a syndicate of agents (collectively, the “Agents”), will market, on a commercially reasonable private placement basis, up to 55,555,556 units (the “Units”) of the Company at a price of $0.18, for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $10,000,000 million (the “Offering”).

Each Unit will be comprised of one (1) common share of the Company (a “Common Share" and collectively, the “Common Shares”) and one (1) Common Share purchase warrant (a “Warrant" and collectively, the “Warrants”). Each Warrant shall be exercisable for one (1) Common Share at a price of $0.28 per share (the "Exercise Price") for a period of thirty-six (36) months. However, in the event that the Common Shares trade on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSX-V”) at a closing price equal to or greater than $0.36 for a period of twenty (20) consecutive trading days, the Company may give notice to the holders of the Warrants requiring that they exercise the Warrants with a period of thirty (30) days from the date of notice, failing which the Warrants shall expire.

The Agents shall also have the option (the "Option"), exercisable in whole or in part at any time prior to the Closing Date (as defined below), to increase the size of the offering by up to an additional 15% of the Units sold pursuant to the Offering.

The net proceeds of the Offering shall be used primarily for the completion of DFS workstreams and further exploration on the Company's Segilola Gold Project in Nigeria and the balance shall be used for exploration activities on the Company’s Douta Project in Senegal and for working capital purposes.

The Units will be offered by way of private placement to "accredited investors" in all of the provinces of Canada (other than the Province of Quebec) pursuant to National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exempt Distributions and in the United States on a private placement basis pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Units may also be sold to eligible investors in other jurisdictions. The Units (and the underlying securities thereof) will be subject to a four-month hold period in Canada.

The Offering is expected to close on or about August 31, 2018 (the "Closing Date"). Closing of the Offering is subject to certain conditions typical for a transaction of this nature and the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
