VANCOUVER, BC, March 9, 2022 /CNW/ - ATAC Resources Ltd. (TSXV:
ATC) ("ATAC" or the "Company") is pleased to announce a
non-brokered private placement (the "Offering") of up to
C$3,000,000. The Offering will
consist of the sale of up to 18,750,000 flow-through units (the
"Units") at a price of $0.16 per
Unit. Each Unit will consist of one flow-through common share and
one-half (1/2) of a share purchase warrant, with each whole warrant
entitling the holder to purchase one additional common share at a
price of $0.22 for a period of two
years from closing.
"This financing supports our 2022 exploration program in BC
and Yukon, which will be anchored
by 2,000 m of diamond drilling at the
Osiris Gold Deposit and 5,000 m of
reverse circulation drilling at the Connaught Copper Property,"
commented Graham Downs, ATAC's
President and CEO. "Funds will also be used to ramp up
exploration at our recently acquired PIL Property in British Columbia, in the heart of the
Toodoggone region, with a phase 1 geophysical program in early
summer, and a phase 2 drill program in the fall. Raising these
flow-through funds gives us the ability to accelerate drill
programs targeting discovery and resource growth, and conduct
aggressive exploration in Yukon
and BC."
The proceeds from the sale of the flow-through shares will be
used for "Canadian exploration expenses" at the Company's Connaught
Property, Rackla Gold Property, PIL Property and other Canadian
properties, and will qualify as "flow-through mining expenditures"
as defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada). The Offering is scheduled to close on
or before March 31, 2022, and is
subject to regulatory acceptance.
Finder's fees or brokers' commissions may be paid in accordance
with TSX Venture Exchange policies. All securities issued as part
of the Offering will be subject to a hold period in Canada of four months plus one day from the
closing of the Offering.
