Goldshore Resources Inc. Announces Closing of $10 Million Private Placement Offering
The Offering was comprised of 10,810,692 flow-through shares (each, a "FT Share") at a price of $0.65 per FT Share for gross proceeds of $7,026,950, and 3,911,908 premium flow-through shares (each, a "Premium FT Share" and, collectively with the FT Shares, the "Offered Shares") at a price of $0.76 per Premium FT Share for gross proceeds of $2,973,050.
In connection with the Offering, the Company has paid to the Agents a cash commission equal to 6% of the gross proceeds of the Offering, of which 3% was paid in cash and 3% was paid through the issuance of 440,178 common shares of the Company at a price of $0.65. In addition, the Company issued to the Agents 880,356 compensation warrants of the Company exercisable for a period of 24 months at an exercise price of $0.65.
The Company intends to use the proceeds raised from the Offering for future exploration work on its Moss Lake gold deposit in Northwest Ontario, Canada. The gross proceeds from the issuance of the Offered Shares will be used for "Canadian Exploration Expenses" within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Qualifying Expenditures"), which will be renounced with an effective date no later than December 31, 2021 to the purchasers of the Offered Shares in an aggregate amount not less than the gross proceeds raised from the issue of Offered Shares. If the Qualifying Expenditures are reduced by the Canada Revenue Agency, the Company will indemnify each subscriber of Offered Shares for any additional taxes payable by such subscriber as a result of the Company's failure to renounce the Qualifying Expenditures.
The securities issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a four-month and one day hold period under applicable securities laws in Canada.
Closing of the Offering is subject to final approval by the TSX Venture Exchange.
Brett Richards, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company commented: "I am pleased we have been able to attract significant interest in Goldshore to have upsized the planned $7M fund raise to $10M, and have now closed. This fresh capital will assist us in continuing to de-risk the project as we advance our 100,000m drilling campaign well into 2022."
