February 19 2021 - 9:00AM
Alpha Lithium Corporation (TSX.V: ALLI)
(“
Alpha” or the “
Company”), sole
owner of one of the last large, undeveloped salars in Argentina’s
Lithium Triangle, is pleased to announce it has closed the
previously announced short form prospectus offering of units (the
“Units”), on a bought deal basis, for gross proceeds of $23,008,050
(the “Offering”). The Offering was conducted by Echelon Wealth
Partners Inc. and Leede Jones Gable Inc. (the "Underwriters").
The net proceeds of the Offering will be used to
fund the pursuit of strategic acquisitions, mineral exploration
expenditures on the Company’s Tolillar Lithium Project in
Argentina, as well as general working capital purposes, all as
further set out in the prospectus.
Brad Nichol, President and CEO, commented, "We
are very pleased to see the broad-based, international,
institutional support for Alpha Lithium. The completion of the
offering has strengthened our balance sheet, and now with a solid
cash position of more than $35 million, Alpha can extend the scope
of its drilling program and accelerate some of the exceptional work
being undertaken with Direct Lithium Extraction (“DLE”) partners
and technology providers. In addition to developing the Tolillar
Salar in Argentina, the Company will be in a very strong position
to consider opportunistic acquisitions, partnerships and enter DLE
negotiations with various parties."
Each Unit consists of one common share of the
Company and one common share purchase warrant (each, a "Warrant"),
each Warrant being exercisable for a period of 24 months from the
date of closing (the “Closing”) at an exercise price of $1.10. The
Underwriters received cash commission equal to 7% of the gross
proceeds of the Offering and Underwriters’ warrants that allow the
Underwriters to purchase up to 1,988,350 common shares of the
Company at a price of $0.81 for a period of 24 months from Closing.
A total of 28,405,000 Units of the Company at a price per Unit of
$0.81 were issued under the Offering, inclusive of the exercise of
the over-allotment option in its entirety.
The securities being offered have not been, nor
will they be, registered under the United States Securities Act of
1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United
States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons absent
