VANCOUVER, BC, May 1, 2023
/CNW/ - Group Eleven Resources Corp. (the "Company")
(TSXV: ZNG) (OTC: GRLVF) (FRA: 3GE) is pleased to announce a
non-brokered private placement (the "Private
Placement") of up to 11,111,111 units of the Company (each,
a "Unit") at a price of $0.09
per Unit for gross proceeds of up to $1,000,000. All currency in this news release is
denominated in Canadian dollars.
Each Unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the
Company (a "Common Share") and one-half of one
non-transferrable common share purchase warrant (each whole
warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder
to purchase one additional common share in the capital of the
Company (a "Warrant Share") for a period of 36 months from
the date of issue at an exercise price of $0.15 per Warrant
Share.
The Private Placement will be made available to subscribers
pursuant to the accredited investor and friends, family and
business associate exemptions provided under sections 2.3(1) and
2.5 of National Instrument 45-106 Prospectus Exemptions.
The Company expects to pay finder's fees in connection with the
Private Placement to certain eligible finders in the form of: (i) a
cash commission of 6% of the gross proceeds raised under the
Private Placement from investors introduced to the Company by the
finder; and (ii) the issuance of such number of non-transferable
common share purchase warrants of the Company (the "Finder's
Warrants") equal to 6% of the Units issued under the Private
Placement from investors introduced to the Company by the
finder.
The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Private
Placement primarily for follow-up drilling on the Company's
Ballywire zinc-lead-silver discovery at the PG West project
(100%-interest) in Ireland, as
well as for general and administrative purposes. There may be
circumstances, however, where, for sound business reasons, a
reallocation of funds may be necessary.
Michael Gentile currently holds
26,366,614 Common Shares and 6,508,333 Warrants, each Warrant
entitling Mr. Gentile to purchase one additional Common Share upon
payment of additional consideration to the Company. These Common
Shares and Warrants represent approximately 16.66% of the Company's
issued and outstanding Common Shares on an undiluted basis and
approximately 19.95% of the Company's issued and outstanding Common
Shares on a partially diluted basis. Mr. Gentile has agreed to
subscribe for up to 15% of the Private Placement which, in the
event the Company issues the full 11,111,111 Units in the Private
Placement, would result in Mr. Gentile subscribing for 1,638,889
Units for aggregate cash consideration of $147,500. Following the completion of the Private
Placement, Mr. Gentile would beneficially own and control an
aggregate of 28,005,503 Common Shares and 7,327,777 Warrants,
representing approximately 16.53% of the Company's issued and
outstanding Common Shares on an undiluted basis and approximately
19.99% of the Company's issued and outstanding Common Shares on a
partially diluted basis.
The Private Placement is subject to all necessary regulatory
approvals including acceptance from the TSX Venture Exchange. All
securities issued in connection with the Private Placement will be
subject to a four-month hold period from the closing date under
applicable Canadian securities laws, in addition to such other
restrictions as may apply under applicable securities laws of
jurisdictions outside Canada.
The ownership percentages of Common Shares described above are
based on the Company having 158,301,502 Common Shares issued and
outstanding as of the date of this news release and 169,412,613
Common Shares outstanding upon completion of the Private
Placement.

relate to future events or future performance and reflect the
expectations or beliefs of management of the Company regarding
future events. Generally, forward-looking statements and

information and these statements, referred to herein as
"forward–looking statements", are not historical facts, are made as

including without limitation, that: the Company will obtain the

anticipated proceeds under the Private Placement; and the Company
will use the proceeds of the Private Placement as currently
anticipated.
Although management of the Company has attempted to identify
important factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those contained in forward-looking statements or
forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause
