TORONTO, June 11, 2019 - Plato Gold Corp. (TSX-V: PGC) (“Plato” or the “Corporation”) is pleased to announce that it intends to complete a non-brokered private placement of up to 3,500,000 common shares (a “Share” or “Shares”) at a price of CAN$0.10 per Share, for gross proceeds of approximately $350,000 (the “Offering”). Closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about July 12, 2019.
The securities issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a four month and one day statutory hold period.
The Corporation intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering on exploration to advance the Good Hope Niobium Property and for general working capital purposes.
“I am very pleased to be in a position to advance the Good Hope Niobium Project near Marathon, as niobium is very much in demand for all of its unique characteristics. With the current world trade difficulties, end users will be looking to diversify their source of supply,” said Anthony J. Cohen, CEO of Plato.
Completion of the Offering is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange and applicable securities regulatory authorities.
