  Kevin Smith , Crescat's Founder and Chief Investment Officer stated:

 

" Crescat's goal, at this stage of the cycle, is to identify and invest in a portfolio of premier exploration assets that the majors will need to replace their reserves after a decade of under-investment. We think Finlay is one of the most exciting silver stories in Canada today. "

 

  Robert Brown , President and CEO of Finlay Minerals Ltd stated:

 

" Finlay management is excited about dramatically moving forward with exploration on the Silver Hope project aided by the strategic investment of Crescat Capital.  New exploration concepts were tested in 2020 and lead to the discovery of the new Equity East Zone, which will be one of the targeted areas in 2021. "

 

The Private Placement will consist of: (i) up to 11,111,111 units (each, a " NFT Unit "), at a price of $0.09 per NFT Unit, with each NFT Unit comprising one common share of the Company (each, a " Unit Share ") and one common share purchase warrant (each, a " Unit Warrant "); and (ii) up to 8,333,333 flow-through units (" FT Units "), at a price of $0.12 per FT Unit (the " FT Unit Price "), with each FT Unit comprising one common share of the Company which qualifies as a "flow-through share" within the meaning of the Income Tax Act ( Canada ) and one Unit Warrant.

 

Each Unit Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to acquire one additional common share of the Company (each, a " Warrant Share ") at an exercise price of $0.135 per Warrant Share for a period of twenty-four months from the issuance of each such Unit Warrant.

 

The Private Placement is subject to certain conditions, including, but not limited to, receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the TSX-V.  Further, depending on market conditions, the Company may pay a finder's fee on a portion of the Private Placement in accordance with the rules and policies of the TSX-V.  The Company expects to complete the Private Placement in one or more tranches.

 

The net proceeds from the Private Placement will be used to fund general and operating working capital, including Induced Polarization geophysical surveys of the 2020 newly discovered Equity East Zone, expansion of the soil sampling grid, geological mapping and rock sampling, and further core drilling of priority Equity Silver and porphyry copper type targets on the Silver Hope Property.

Top 5 Australian Mining Stocks This Week: Yandal Shares Double on Arrakis Drilling Results

Welcome to the Investing News Network's weekly round-up of Australia’s top-performing mining stocks on the ASX, starting with news in Australia's resource sector.

This week's top-performing stocks list is dominated by oil and gas companies, alongside gold and lithium companies.

In Australian mining news, the Fair Work Commission ruled that BHP (ASX:BHP,NYSE:BHP,LSE:BHP) must raise the wages of 2,200 workers at three coal mines in Queensland. The workers in question were employed indirectly through a hiring firm and were being paid significantly less than their peers working directly under BHP.

The case was brought by two worker's unions and based on the Same Job, Same Pay reforms made by the government last year. To align wages, the FWC ruled BHP must raise the labour hire employees' wages by AU$30,000 each.

Pilbara 2.0: Inside Australia’s Newest Gold Frontier

The Central Pilbara region of Western Australia is undergoing a quiet revolution that is rapidly reshaping the global gold exploration landscape.

Once dismissed as a technically challenging and geologically inconsistent terrain, Pilbara is now emerging as one of the world’s most exciting new gold frontiers and drawing serious attention from institutional investors, driven by transformative discoveries, a maturing geological model and a wave of junior explorers tapping into underexplored intrusive-hosted systems.

Anchored by the multimillion-ounce Hemi discovery — one of the most significant gold finds in Australia in over a decade — this region is not just proving its geological potential, but also demonstrating the kind of scale, consistency and margin profile that modern gold investors seek. As the discovery window remains wide open and valuations are still accessible, the Central Pilbara presents a rare opportunity for early exposure to what may become one of Australia’s next tier-one gold districts.
