VANCOUVER, BC, March 7,
2022 /CNW/ - Elevation Gold Mining Corporation
(TSX.V:ELVT) (OTCQX: EVGDF) (the "Company" or
"Elevation") announces that it has filed a preliminary short
form prospectus (the "Prospectus") with the securities commissions
in each of the Provinces of Canada
(other than Quebec) (the "Canadian
Jurisdictions"), in connection with a marketed public offering (the
"Offering") of units of the Company (the "Units") at a price of
C$0.53 per Unit (the "Offering
Price") for aggregate gross proceeds of up to approximately
C$12 million.
Each Unit shall consist of one common share of the Company (a
"Common Share") and one common share purchase warrant of the
Company (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant shall entitle the holder to
purchase one common share of the Company (a "Warrant Share") at a
price of C$0.70 per Warrant Share at
any time on or before that date which is 60 months after the
closing date of the Offering.
The Offering will be led by Canaccord Genuity Corp. (the "Lead
Agent"), on behalf of a syndicate of agents (together with the Lead
Agent, the "Agents"). The Company has granted to the Agents an
over-allotment option (the "Over-Allotment Option") to offer for
sale up to an additional number of Units equal to 15% of the number
of Units sold under the Offering, at the Offering Price, to cover
over-allotments, if any, and for market stabilization purposes. The
Over-Allotment Option will be exercisable in whole or in part, in
the sole discretion of the Agents, at any time, and from time to
time, for a period of 30 days from and including the closing date
of the Offering and shall be exercisable for additional Units,
Warrants and/or Common Shares (or any combination thereof).
The Offering is being conducted on a "best efforts" agency basis
and is subject to customary closing conditions, including, but not
limited to, the entering into of an agency agreement with the
Agents, the approval of the securities regulatory authorities and
the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV").
The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering to
fund capital expenditures and continued exploration and development
of the Moss Mine, as well as for working capital and general
corporate purposes, all as described in more detail in the
Prospectus.
Contemporaneously with the closing of the Offering, the Company
will close a debt settlement arrangement (the "Debt Settlement
Arrangement") in the aggregate amount of approximately C$2.96 million in respect of the partial
repayment of two short term loan arrangements that the Company
entered into in November 2021.
Pursuant to the Debt Settlement Arrangement, the Company will issue
an aggregate of 5,592,890 Units at a deemed price of C$0.53 per Unit (of which Douglas Hurst, Chairman, will receive 943,396
Units and an arms length third party will receive 4,649,494 Units).
The Debt Settlement Arrangement is subject to the approval of the
TSXV.
The Offering will be completed (i) by way of a short form
prospectus filed in the Canadian Jurisdictions, (ii) on a private
placement basis in the United
States pursuant to exemptions from the registration
requirements of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), and (iii) outside Canada and the
United States on a basis which does not require the
qualification or registration of any of the Company's securities
under domestic or foreign securities laws.
The Prospectus is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the

sale would be unlawful. The securities have not been and will
