Mammoth Resources Announces Closing on $720,000 Private Placement and Commencement of Diamond Drilling at Its Tenoriba Gold-S...
December 14 2017 - 8:00AM
Mammoth Resources Corp. (TSX-V:MTH)
, (the
“Company”) is pleased to announce that it has closed its
previously announced non-brokered private placement (the “Private
Placement”) of up to 8,000,000 units (the “Units”) of Mammoth at
$0.09 per Unit, for gross proceeds of up to $720,000.
Each
Unit consists of one common share (a "Common Share") and
one common share purchase warrant (the “Warrant") of the Company.
Each Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to
acquire one Common Share up to
18 months following
closing of the Private Placement, at an
exercise
price of $0.13. The gross proceeds of the Private
Placement will be used to diamond drill up to 3,000 metres testing
up to 24 targets along a 5 kilometre trend of gold-silver
mineralization at the Company’s Tenoriba, High Sulphidation
gold-silver project in the Sierra Madre region of southwestern
Chihuahua State, Mexico (refer to press release dated October 25,
2017) and for other working capital purposes.
The Private Placement was conducted in reliance
upon British Columbia Instrument 45-534 (the “Instrument”), which
permits an issuer to distribute securities to its existing
shareholders, subject to the terms of the instrument. The TSX
Venture Exchange has granted approval for this Private Placement.
The securities issued pursuant to the Private Placement will be
subject to a four-month hold period. Finders' fees of $15,955.65 in
cash representing 2.2% of the gross proceeds and the issuance of
187,285 Broker's Warrants representing 2.3% of the Units issues
under this Private Placement, with the same terms as the Warrants
to this financing were paid on this Private Placement.
The Company commenced diamond drilling on
December 1st and has competed the first drill hole and begun
drilling the second of the program (please refer to Company website
for drill photographs from the project at:
http://www.mammothresources.ca/s/ProjectImages.asp).
Drilling is expected to continue nearer the holiday period
whereupon drilling will be curtailed for the holiday and recommence
in early January. It is expected that the Company will have results
from holes drilled in December, in early to mid January, and
results from the continuation of drilling in 2018 will be released
through the first quarter 2018.
Thomas Atkins, President and CEO of
Mammoth commented on this successful Private Placement,
stating: “We're pleased to be closing on one hundred
percent of what we'd set out to raise through this financing and in
fact we couldn't accept additional investment due to the
limits of our price reservation. We're also pleased to announce
that even prior to closing this financing we began diamond drilling
and are pleased to so quickly be able to mobilize and start
drilling relative to the announcement of our plans to fund drilling
via this Private Placement. Mammoth’s VP Exploration, Richard
Simpson is on site and working with the drill contractor and local
labourers to advance this drill program. Results are expected early
to mid January and throughout the first quarter of 2018. We're
optimistic the abundant surface work performed by the Company, and
which was used in selecting the drill targets, will produce some
attractive precious metal intersections from this drilling."
Mammoth has targeted its drill holes based on
what it believes is a compelling combination of: (1) surface
geology, (2) trace element geochemistry, (3) gold bearing samples
from chip and cut channels over a large 15 square kilometre area of
gold mineralization, (4) PIMA sampling results indicating proximity
to high temperature geothermal activity coincident with surface
gold values, and (5) a ground Induced Polarization (IP) and
Magnetometer (Mag) geophysics survey which illustrates attractive
geophysical features at depth coincident with surface gold
mineralization, artisanal workings and in some cases intersected at
depth by a predecessor company’s drilling (the highest grade
intersection assaying 45.9 grams/tonne gold over 1.9
metres in drill hole 7 and the lengthiest gold
intersection assaying 34.4 metres grading 1.03 grams/tonne
gold in drill hole 11 and 66 metres grading 0.5
grams/tonne gold in drill hole 14) (for additional
