American CuMo Mining Corporation  (TSXV: MLY) announces that it is arranging a non-brokered private placement of up to 15,000,000 units (the “Units”) at a price of CAD$0.25 per Unit to raise gross proceeds of up to CAD$3,750,000 (the “Private Placement”).
Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (a “Share”) and one common share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”) exercisable to purchase an additional common share of the Company (a “Warrant Share”) at a price of CAD$0.45 per Warrant Share for a period of two years from the date of issue, subject to an acceleration provision whereby the term of the Warrants may be accelerated if the Company’s common shares trade at or above a price of CAD$0.60 per share for a period of 10 consecutive trading days. In such case, the Company may give notice to the holders of Warrants that the Warrants will expire 20 days from the date of providing such notice and the Warrants. The Private Placement is subject to TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) approval. In connection with the Private Placement and in accordance with TSXV policy, the Company may pay to certain eligible finders a finder’s fee for Units sold in the Private Placement.
The Private Placement is to replace the previously proposed sale of 11,000,000 common shares of the Company to Millennia Minerals Pte Ltd. (“Millennia”) announced on August 1, 2017.
“Due to the length of time it is taking to complete negotiations of our strategic partnership agreements with Millennia because of the complexities involved in a deal of this magnitude between parties from different jurisdictions, we believe that the Private Placement will provide us with the necessary time to complete the deal without affecting the Company’s ability to move forward,” said Shaun Dykes, President and CEO of CuMoCo. “Instead of extending only Millennia the opportunity to subscribe for common shares of the Company, we are now providing eligible shareholders and investors with the ability to participate in the Private Placement, on a first come, first served basis.”
The securities offered pursuant to the Private Placement 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 United States state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons absent registration or any applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable U.S. state securities laws. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities in the United States, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
The proceeds of the Private Placement are to be used to repay the principal outstanding under two secured convertible debentures (the “Convertible Debentures”) held by International Energy & Mineral Resources Investment (Hong Kong) Limited (“IEMR HK”) and to provide funding for the on-going work at the CuMo and Calida projects in Idaho, until such time as negotiations in respect of the strategic financial partnership with Millennia Minerals Pte. Ltd. have been completed and definitive agreements executed. One of the Convertible Debentures in the principal amount of CAD$1,500,000 is due to be repaid on October 25, 2017, and is convertible into common shares of the Company, at IEMR (HK)’s discretion, at a price of CAD$0.28 per share. The second Convertible Debenture in the principal amount of US$1,500,000 is due to be repaid on November 25, 2017, and is convertible into common shares of the Company, at IEMR (HK)’s discretion, at a price of US$0.28 per share. Under the terms of the Convertible Debentures, the Company has the right to prepay the principal amount owing thereunder at any time without penalty.
In other news, drilling at the Company’s Calida Gold project in Eastern Idaho is proceeding faster than excepted with ten holes now completed. Thick intercepts of copper-bearing mineralization have been intercepted in all holes. Copper is a signature of the gold-copper-silver bearing zones that were present in the historic drilling on the project. The drill holes completed cover a strike length of 610 meters (2000 feet) along the main vein. The Company intends to mobilise a second drill to Calida Gold if and when the Private Placement closes.
The following table lists each hole information and visual mineralized intercepts (containing quartz veins with visible copper):
