Aurania Resources Ltd. announces $4 Million Financing

(PresseBox) (Toronto, Ontario, )
Aurania Resources Ltd. (TSXV: ARU; OTCQB: AUIAF; Frankfurt: 20Q) (“Aurania” or the “Company” - https://www.commodity-tv.net/c/search_adv/?v=299154) announces that its board of directors has given approval for a non-brokered private placement of up to 1,481,481 units (each a "Unit") at C$2.70 per Unit for total gross proceeds of C$4 million (the "Offering"), subject to receipt of all applicable regulatory approvals.

Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company (a “Common Share”) and one-half Common Share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”). Each whole Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of C$4.00 for a period of 18 months following closing of the Offering.   The Units will be offered by private placement only (and without the use of an offering memorandum as defined in OSC Rule 14-501) with a minimum subscription amount of C$5,000. The Offering includes an over-allotment option, allowing Aurania to issue up to an additional 370,370 Units for additional gross proceeds of up to C$1,000,000.  The Offering is open to all Canadian accredited investors.  In addition, the Offering is available to four other investor groups in accordance with applicable laws:
  • Existing Shareholders who are not accredited investors (Canadian residents only);
  • US Residents (apart from the Offering being available to accredited investors in the US, it is also open to a maximum of 35 non-accredited investors on a ‘first-come, first-served’ basis);
  • Foreign Residents (anyone residing outside of Canada or the US); and
  • Family, Friends & Business Associates of Management.
Additional Information for Existing Shareholders

The Offering will be open to participation by existing shareholders of Aurania (“Existing Shareholders”) resident in Canada as of the record date of July 17, 2019 (the “Record Date”) who wish to participate in the offering in reliance on the existing shareholder exemption available under the Canadian securities laws (the “Existing Shareholder Exemption”). The aggregate acquisition cost to an Existing Shareholder relying on the Existing Shareholder Exemption cannot exceed C$15,000 in the 12-month period immediately preceding the closing date of the Offering, unless that Existing Shareholder has obtained advice regarding suitability of the investment from a registered investment dealer in the shareholder's jurisdiction. The minimum subscription amount for Existing Shareholders relying on the Existing Shareholder Exemption is C$5,000.

The participation in the Offering by Existing Shareholders relying on the Existing Shareholder Exemption will remain open until 4:30 p.m. (EDT) on August 16, 2019, subject to earlier cut-off if the Offering is over-subscribed or in the event of a material change in the affairs of the Company. If you are an Existing Shareholder of Aurania as of the Record Date and are interested in participating in the Offering, you or your registered investment dealer should contact the Company to obtain a copy of the subscription agreement for the Offering by email at carolyn.muir@aurania.com. Requests should be received by no later than 4:30 p.m. (EDT) on August 7, 2019.

Subscriptions of Existing Shareholders will be accepted by the Company on a ‘first-come, first-served’ basis. Therefore, if the Offering is over-subscribed it is possible that a shareholder’s subscription may not be accepted by the Corporation even though it is received within the Offering period. There is no minimum Offering amount.

Use of Proceeds

The Company intends to use the net proceeds raised from the sale of the Units to advance exploration in the Lost Cities – Cutucu Project in southeastern Ecuador and environs, including the analysis of large data sets, initial drilling of gold targets, advancement of copper targets, and for general working capital purposes.

Hold Period

Securities issued pursuant to the Offering shall be subject to a four-month plus one day hold period commencing on the day of the closing of the Offering under applicable Canadian securities laws. The Offering is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The Offering may be completed in multiple closings, with the final closing expected to occur on or before August 30, 2019, subject to the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals.

Forward-looking statements may be identified by such terms as “believes”, “anticipates”, “expects”, “estimates”, “may”, “could”, “would”, “will”, or “plan”. Since forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Although these statements are based on information currently available to Aurania, Aurania provides no assurance that actual results will meet management’s expectations. Risks, uncertainties and other factors involved with forward-looking information could cause actual events, results, performance, prospects and opportunities to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information.

Although Aurania believes that the assumptions and factors used in preparing the forward-looking information in this news release are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on such information, which only applies as of the date of this news release, and no assurance can be given that such events will occur in the disclosed time frames or at all.
