Major Precious Metals Announces C$10,000,000 Non-Brokered Private Placement
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 14, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Major Precious Metals Corp. (“Major Precious Metals” or the “Company”) (CSE:SIZE | OTC:SIZYF | FRANKFURT:3EZ) is pleased to announce that it is offering subscribers a non-brokered Private Placement through the issuance of 28,600,000 units (the “Units”) of the Company at a price of C$0.35 per Unit for gross proceeds of C$10,000,000 (the “Offering”). Each Unit consists of one (1) common share of the Company (a “Common Share”) and one half (1/2) of one transferable common share purchase warrant (with two such half warrants being a “Warrant”). Each whole Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one (1) additional Common Share for a period of 2 years from the applicable closing date at a price of C$0.70 per Common Share, subject to an acceleration provision should the Company’s Common Shares trade above C$1.20 for a period of 10 trading days.
Tony Williams, Chairman and CEO of Major Precious Metals commented, “This injection of additional capital together with the ongoing combination of warrants and options being exercised by existing long-term shareholders will serve to continue to finance the extensive drilling and economic evaluation of the Company’s Skaergaard Project in Greenland, as has been well documented and previously announced by the Company.
I am pleased to say that we have already received firm commitments of C$5,000,000 for the Offering from these same long-term shareholders, who we would like to thank wholeheartedly for their commitment and vision as to the value creation that has already occurred over the past 6 months since the Company acquired the Skaergaard Project.
I believe it is important to frame the magnitude of this opportunity. With regards to Skaergaard, the Company is developing a globally significant precious metal deposit (palladium, platinum, and gold) with 5.51 Moz contained PdEq ounces in the Indicated Resource category and 14.4 Moz contained PdEq ounces in the Inferred Resource category, as determined by SLR Consulting (Canada) Ltd. and disclosed in the Company’s news release dated April 23, 2021, and further detailed in the Company’s NI 43-101 technical report filed on SEDAR on May 25, 2021.
The Skaergaard Project also contains other “critical metals” such as vanadium and titanium, which will be evaluated for their economic potential as part of the upcoming summer exploration program, an updated mineral resource estimate, and PEA. Moreover, the mineralization within the licence area of the Skaergaard layered intrusion is open in all directions and the Company plans to explore its new large exploration licence to the north. We are now fully prepared for the summer exploration program at Skaergaard with mobilization planned in early July.
It is also interesting to note that Greenland ranks second in Europe after Finland and above Mexico, Norway, and Canada’s Northwest Territories in “Investment Attractiveness” according to the recent Fraser Institute Annual Survey of Mining Companies (2020), and that is reflected in its fair and modern mineral licencing framework.
Skaergaard as a development project has been effectively dormant for over a decade and we are relaunching at a time of buoyant precious metal prices, and we believe we can add further significant value as we progress the Skaergaard Project along the Mine Development Cycle over the coming months.”
