entered into an agreement with National Bank Financial Inc., Cantor
Fitzgerald Canada Corp. and Eight Capital as co-lead agents
(collectively, the "
Lead Agents"), pursuant to
which the Lead Agents have agreed to sell, on a "best efforts"
agency basis, up to 27,778,000 units ("
Units") of
the Company at a price of US$1.80 per Unit (the "

Price") for aggregate gross proceeds of up to
approximately US$50 million (the "
Offering").
Each Unit consists of one common share of the
Company (each, a "Common Share") and one Common
Share purchase warrant (each, a "Warrant"). Each
Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common
Share (each, a "Warrant Share"), at a price of

The Company has also granted the Lead Agents an
option, exercisable in whole or in part, at any time up to 48 hours
prior to the closing of the Offering, to sell an additional up to
4,166,700 Units at the Offering Price.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds of
the Offering towards the advancement of its Cariboo and Tintic
Projects, to partially repay its existing credit facility and for
general corporate purposes.
Closing of the Offering is expected to take
place on or about November 12, 2024 (the "Closing
Date"), and is subject to certain conditions including,
but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals,
including the conditional approval from the New York Stock Exchange

The Units are to be offered for sale by way of
private placement in all the provinces and territories of Canada
(the "Jurisdictions"), pursuant to applicable
prospectus exemptions under National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus
Exemptions. The Lead Agents will also be entitled to offer the
Units for sale to eligible purchasers resident in jurisdictions
other than Canada that are mutually agreed to by the Company and
the Lead Agents, each acting reasonably, provided that no
prospectus filing or comparable obligation arises and the Company
does not thereafter become subject to continuous disclosure
obligations in such jurisdictions.
