Camino Closes Private Placement of $7.5M

Camino Minerals Corporation (TSXV: COR) (OTC: CAMZF) (WKN: A116E1) ("Camino" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has closed its non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of $7,500,000 (the "Financing"). Proceeds of the Financing will be used for corporate purposes and to advance exploration at Camino's three copper projects in Peru: the Los Chapitos (IOCG) copper discovery, the Maria Cecilia porphyry complex (subject to the closing of Camino's acquisition of Minera Maria Cecilia Ltd., as announced in the Company's news releases issued March 30, 2021, and May 3, 2021), and the Plata Dorada high-grade copper and silver project. The Financing, which was previously announced in the Company's news releases on April 29, 2021, and May 3, 2021, was largely subscribed for by institutional investors.

"Camino is positioned to drill some significant geological systems at Los Chapitos and Maria Cecilia in 2021 that we believe have large copper discovery potential," said Jay Chmelauskas, CEO and President of Camino. "The Financing was over-subscribed. We are starting to witness major miners seeking to secure new sources of copper on earlier stage exploration and development projects in the copper sector. Our strategy over the past year to develop our copper business has given us a very good start ahead of a copper market with strong fundamentals."

The Financing consisted of 44,117,647 million units (each, a "Unit") at a price of $0.17 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of the Company and half a non-transferable common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder to acquire an additional common share of the Company at a price of $0.25 per common share until May 18, 2023.

Camino has paid finders' fees of C$314,880 in cash and issued 1,283,620 finders' warrants which entitle the holder to acquire one common share of the Company at a price of $0.25 per common share until May 18, 2023. Such finders' fees were paid in accordance with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange. All securities issued in connection with the Financing will be subject to a hold period expiring September 19, 2021.

Certain insiders acquired an aggregate of 5,882,350 Units in the Financing, and as such, the Financing is considered a "related party transaction" as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ("MI 61-101"). Camino has relied on exemptions from the valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in respect of the insiders' participation in the Financing, as such participation in the Financing does not exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.

ASX Copper Stocks: 5 Biggest Companies in 2024

Copper saw sinking prices toward the end of 2023, but things began to shift in early 2024 as treatment charges at Chinese refiners dropped to single digit lows, causing some to cut production.

This led to increased momentum in the price of copper as refined product supply became increasingly tight for consumers of the base metal. In April, the price broke US$10,000 per tonne and set new all time highs on both the London Metals Exchange and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange.

Copper has since retreated and has been trading in the US$8,800 to US$9,200 range mark in August and September. Despite recent pullbacks, prices are likely to see gains as markets supply deficits are expected over the next several years as demand from energy transition sectors continue to grow.
