VANCOUVER, January 25, 2019 - Belmont Resources Inc. ("Belmont" or the "Company") (TSX.V:BEA; FSE: L3L1; DTC Eligible – CUSIP 080499403). Private Placement Financing:
The Company will be making an application to the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") for a waiver to the private placement price as the proposed subscription price is below the minimum allowed pursuant to the policies.
The Company proposes to proceed with a financing of up to $180,000 with 4.0 million units to be issued at $0.045. Each unit will be comprised of one common share and one transferable share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each whole warrant will permit the holder to acquire one additional common share of the Company at a price of $0.05 for one year from closing.
In addition to relying upon other available prospectus exemptions to effect the private placement, a portion of the private placement is being completed in accordance with the exemption set out in BC Instrument 45-536 (Exemption from prospectus requirement for certain distributions through an investment dealer), (the "Investment Dealer Exemption"). The Company also confirms there is no material fact or material change related to the Company which has not been generally disclosed.
The Company may pay commissions of 8% to eligible parties in connection with this financing, payable either in cash and/or in warrants. The Common Shares and Warrants are subject to a statutory hold period and the financing is subject to Exchange acceptance.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the private placement for continued exploration on its Kibby Basin-lithium property, Nevada. Approximately $100,000 will be expended on continued drilling of hole KB-4 (ie. drilling, assaying, geological consulting, downhole geophysics); Kibby Basin MT survey analysis, water permit application consulting and fees; and planning for additional infill drilling in the area. The balance of $80,000 working capital will be required as follows:
Regulatory fees - $5,000; Office Rent & Communication expenses - $12,000; Transfer Agent Fees - $3,000; Investor & Shareholder Relations including travel & advertising -$20,000; Professional Fees (Legal, Accounting & Year-End Audit) $22,000; Management Fees - $10,000; Finders Fees/Commissions $5,000; Unallocated $3,000.
