Property Acquisition
Ottawa, August 31, 2022 - Mayo Lake Minerals Inc. (CSE: MLKM) ('Mayo Lake' or the 'Company') is pleased to report the closing of its previously announced adjunct private placement in the amount of 1,433,340 flow through Units ('FT Units') for a total of $215,001, slightly over the maximum limit of $200,000 originally set by the Company. Each FT Unit was priced at $0.15 and consisted of one common share qualifying as a flow through share under the Income Tax Act (Canada); and one half of a warrant. Each whole warrant is exercisable into one common share at a price of $0.20 for a period of three years from closing.
Dr. Vern Rampton, President & CEO, commented, "The closing of this limited placement will facilitate the completion of critical exploration work on our 46 square kilometre Carlin-Roop Silver Project in the Keno Hill Silver District, Yukon. Assays are expected on the drill core in approximately two months time.
The funds will also give us the opportunity to add new targets to our drill ready properties, namely our primary 130 square kilometre Anderson-Davidson gold property and our highly prospective 46 square kilometre Trail-Minto property. The latter lies in proximity to Banyan Gold's promising Aur-Mac property in the Tombstone Plutonic Belt."
