Eloro Resources Receives Lead Order from Strategic Investor Crescat Capital and Announces Non-Brokered Private Placement Offering Up to $2,700,000
September 30 2024 - 8:23AM
Eloro Resources Ltd. (“Eloro” or the “Company”) (TSX: ELO;
OTCQX: ELRRF; FSE: P2QM) is pleased to announce it has
received a lead order from the Company’s largest shareholder and
strategic investor, Crescat Capital LLC, in connection with a
non-brokered private placement offering (the
“
Offering”) of up to 3,000,000 units of the
Company at $0.90 per unit (the “
Units”) for gross
proceeds of up to $2,700,000.
“Iska Iska is one of the most significant
silver-base metal discoveries globally in recent years,” stated
Quinton Hennigh, Technical and Geologic Advisor to Crescat Capital,
a strategic shareholder of Eloro. “Although we are currently in a
time when capital available to the mining industry is constrained,
it is critical to see projects like this move forward. Eloro has a
very capable technical team, and it is pleasing to see them
continue to advance work, especially infill drilling in the Santa
Barbara area so that a PEA can be undertaken. Metal prices are now
rising. I believe this is, in part, due to the fact that very few
mines have been built in recent years. Iska Iska needs to remain on
track to ultimately provide the critical metals society needs.”
Kevin Smith, Crescat’s founder and Chief
Investment Officer, commented “Eloro’s Iska Iska deposit is a
silver-rich multi-metallic resource that is one of the largest
discoveries in the world today. There is a shortage of critical
metals globally that are needed for the energy transition due to
more than a decade of underinvestment in the mining industry. The
growth in solar and wind-powered electricity generation is creating
increased demand for silver and zinc, metals in which Eloro is
richly endowed. We are happy to support the Company with additional
capital for definition drilling at this time.”
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from
the Offering for continued exploration and development of the Iska
Iska project, and general corporate purposes and working
capital.
Each Unit will consist of one common share of
the Company (a
“Common
Share”) and
one-half of one common share purchase warrant of the Company (each
whole purchase warrant, a
“Warrant”).
Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one Common
Share at an exercise price of C$1.50, with the expiry date of each
Warrant being two years following the date of the closing under the
Offering.
Completion of the Offering is subject to certain
conditions including, but not limited to the receipt of all
necessary approvals, including the approval of the Toronto Stock
Exchange.
The securities offered in the Offering have not
been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the
“U.S.
Securities
Act”) or any U.S. state
securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United
States or to, or for the account or benefit of, United States
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 news 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 the securities
in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would
be unlawful.
