VANCOUVER, March 05, 2019 - Western Atlas Resources Inc. (“Western Atlas” or the “Company”) (TSXV: WA), announces a non-brokered private placement offering (the "Offering") of up to $3,000,000. The Offering will consist of the sale of flow-through and non-flow-through units at a price of $0.10 and $0.085 per unit respectively. Each unit will consist of either:
- One flow-through share and one-half (1/2) of a non-flow-through common share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional common share at a price of $0.20 for a period of two years from the closing of the Offering.
- One non-flow-through share and one-half (1/2) of a non-flow-through common share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional common share at a price of $0.20 for a period of two years from the closing of the Offering.
The proceeds of the private placement will be used for the exploration of the Company’s Meadowbank project in Nunavut, the potential addition to the Company’s exploration portfolio of one or more properties located in different jurisdictions and for general administrative expenses. The proceeds from the sale of flow-through units will be used for Canadian Exploration Expenses, and will qualify as "flow-through mining expenditures", as defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada).
Finder's fees or brokers' commissions may be paid in accordance with TSX Venture Exchange policies.
The closing is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
