The net proceeds from the Strategic Placement will be used to fund exploration and pre-feasibility level study expenditures at the DeLamar Project and for general corporate purposes.

The Strategic Placement is subject to final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. The Company paid approximately C$198,728 in advisory fees in connection with the Strategic Placement.
