Program at the Diablillos Silver-Gold Project
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN THE U.S. OR DISSEMINATION THROUGH U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES
Toronto - April 27, 2020: AbraPlata Resource Corp. (TSX.V:ABRA; OTCPK: ABBRF) ("AbraPlata"
or the “Company”) announces that it plans to complete a non-brokered private placement through the
issuance of up to 25,000,000 units ("Units") at a price of CAD$0.08 per Unit (the "Offering"). Pursuant to
the Offering, the Company is targeting to raise gross proceeds of up to CAD$2,000,000.
Each Unit will consist of one common share in the equity of the Company (each, a "Common Share")
and one share purchase warrant (each, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the subscriber to purchase
one additional Common Share at a price of $0.15 until the third (3rd) anniversary of the closing date of
the Offering (the "Expiry Date"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Expiry Date of the Warrants will be
accelerated if, for any ten (10) consecutive trading days on the TSX Venture Exchange during the
unexpired term of the Warrant (the "Premium Trading Days"), the closing price of the Common Shares
equals or exceeds $0.30.
The proceeds of the Offering will be used to resume a diamond drill program at the Diablillos silver-gold
project and for general working capital purposes. The Company may pay finder's fees in respect to the
Offering. Securities issued as a result of the Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period of four
months. Closing of the Offering is expected on or about May 15, 2020. Completion of the Offering is
subject to regulatory approval, including approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
The securities offered have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, (the “U.S. Securities Act”) or any U.S. state securities laws, and may not be offered
or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, United States persons absent registration
or any applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable
U.S. state securities laws. This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of any
offer to buy securities in the United States, nor in any other jurisdiction.
Oculto Drill Program
The next phase of the drill program at Oculto is planned to begin in May 2020 and will consist of
approximately 1,600 metres of diamond drilling in four holes. The drill campaign will continue to evaluate
the potential for additional high grade gold and silver mineralization adjacent to and beneath the current
mineral resources, as well as into the basement rocks. The campaign will consist of two step-out drill
holes which are designed to follow-up on high grade intercepts encountered in holes DDH 19-002 and
DDH 20-001 (see Company news releases dated Jan. 27, 2020, and Feb. 19, 2020). The other two holes
will be drilled further along strike to test for the eastern extension of the Oculto mineralized system.
