Apollo Silver Corp. (“
Apollo
Silver” or the “
Company”)
(TSX.V:APGO, OTCQB:APGOF, Frankfurt:6ZF0) is pleased to report that
it has closed its previously announced non-brokered private
placement (the “
Offering”) and has issued an
aggregate of 67,500,000 common shares (each, a
“
Share”) of the Company at a price of C$0.20 per
Share for aggregate gross proceeds of $13,500,000.
Mr. Eric Sprott has subscribed for $2,000,000 of
the Offering.
“We are pleased to welcome Mr. Eric Sprott to
our list of valued shareholders,” commented Interim President and
CEO, and Director, Andrew Bowering. “With the funds raised from
this financing, we believe the Company is well capitalized to
continue building value for all our shareholders.”
The Company intends on using the net proceeds
from the Offering to continue advancing the Calico Silver Project
in San Bernardino, California, to invest in community relations
initiatives at its newly optioned Cinco de Mayo Silver Project in
Chihuahua, Mexico (see news release dated September 23, 2024), for
ongoing property maintenance costs at both projects, and for
general corporate purposes.
In connection with subscriptions received in the
Offering, the Company will pay aggregate cash finder’s fees
totaling $334,000 to certain eligible finders. The Shares issued
under the Offering are subject to a customary four-month and one
day hold period pursuant to applicable securities laws of Canada.
The Offering remains subject to the final approval of the TSX
Venture Exchange.
The Offering included participation by Andrew
Bowering, Chairman, Interim President and Chief Executive Officer,
in the amount of $500,000. Such participation constitutes a
“related party transaction” within the meaning of Multilateral
Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in
Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The issuance
of the Shares to Mr. Bowering is exempt from the valuation
requirement of MI 61- 101 by virtue of the exemption contained in
section 5.5(b) as the Company’s Shares are not listed on a

requirements of MI 61-101 by virtue of the exemption contained in
section 5.7(a) of MI 61-101, in that the fair market value of the
consideration of the securities issued to the related parties does
