Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (each a " Unit Share ") and one half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a " Warrant ").

Each whole Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share of the Company (each, a " Warrant Share ") at a price of C$0.36 at any time on or before August 10, 2024.

The net proceeds raised from the sale of Units will be used for the exploration and development of the Company's Davidson River Project and for working capital purposes. Proceeds from the sale of FT Shares will be used to incur "Canadian exploration expenses" as defined in subsection 66.1(6) of the Income Tax Act and "flow through mining expenditures" as defined in subsection 127(9) of the Income Tax Act (" Qualifying Expenditures "). Such proceeds will be renounced to the subscribers with an effective date not later than December 31, 2021, in the aggregate amount of not less than the total amount of gross proceeds raised from the issue of FT Shares.

The Company relied on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority approval requirements in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in respect of insider participation, as neither the fair market value of, nor the fair market value of the consideration for, the Offering, insofar as it involves a director and officer of the Company, exceeded twenty-five percent of the market capitalization of the Company.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Offered Securities, nor shall there be any sale of the Offered Securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.

Paladin Cuts Uranium Production Forecast, Share Price Declines

Shares of Paladin Energy (ASX:PDN,OTCQX:PALAF) declined this week after the company shared an update on its Langer Heinrich mine and revised its 2025 fiscal year production guidance.

The company now expects the mine to produce 3 million to 3.6 million pounds of U3O8, lower than its earlier prediction of 4 million to 4.5 million pounds. According to Paladin, the drop is the result of lower-than-expected output in October, which was caused by water supply disruptions, as well as continued variability in stockpiled ore.

Production from Langer Heinrich amounted to 186,667 pounds during the month.
