Lincoln Gold Mining Inc. Announces Non-Brokered Private Placement of Units and Flow Through Shares
VANCOUVER, April 21, 2022 - Lincoln Gold Mining Inc. ("Lincoln" or the "Company") (TSXV:LMG) is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement offering (the "Unit Private Placement") of up to 5,000,000 units of the Company (each, a "Unit") at a price of $0.08 per Unit to raise gross proceeds of up to $400,000. Net proceeds from the Unit Private Placement will be primarily used towards the mine operations permitting process and the pre-feasibility study for the Company's Pine Grove Gold Project in Nevada, and for general working capital purposes. Each Unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the Company (a "Common Share") and one half a Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder, on exercise thereof, to purchase one additional Common Share (a "Warrant Share") at a price of $0.18 per Warrant Share for a period of 24 months from the closing of the Unit Private Placement.
In addition, the Company announces a non-brokered private placement offering (the "Flow-Through Private Placement", together with the Unit Private Placement, the "Offering") of Common Shares that will qualify as "flow-through shares" within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Tax Act") ("Flow-Through Shares") consisting of up to 3,000,000 Flow Through Shares at a price of $0.10 per Flow-Through Share for gross proceeds of up to $300,000. Net proceeds from the Flow-Through Private Placement will be used to incur eligible "Canadian exploration expenses" that are "flow-through mining expenditures" (as such term is defined in the Tax Act) related to exploration expenses at the Shawinigan nickel, copper and cobalt project located near Shawinigan, P.Q. There are no Common Share purchase warrants attached to the Flow-Through Private Placement.
Closing of the Offering is subject to all necessary regulatory approvals including acceptance from the TSX Venture Exchange. All securities issued in connection with the Offering will be subject to a four-month hold period from the applicable closing date(s) under applicable Canadian securities laws, in addition to such other restrictions as may apply under applicable securities laws of jurisdictions outside Canada. Certain insiders of the Company may acquire Units or Flow-Through Shares under the Offering.
Finders' fees may be payable in connection with the Offering and those qualified persons involved as finders will receive a cash fee of up to 7% of the proceeds raised and such number of warrants (having the same terms as the Warrants) equal to up to 7% of the total number of Units or Flow-Through Shares sold, as applicable, in relation to subscribers introduced by any particular finder.

The securities have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act") or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. Persons unless registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, unless an exemption from such registration is available.
