VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, August 4, 2023 – Alaska Energy Metals Corporation
(TSX-V: AEMC, OTCQB: AKEMF) (“Alaska Energy Metals” or the “Company”) is pleased to
announce that it has closed its previously announced non-brokered private placement of units
(the “Units”) for aggregate gross proceeds of $3,055,000 (the “Offering”).
The Company issued a total of 7,637,500 Units at a price of $0.40 per Unit. Each Unit consisted
of one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a “Common Share”) and one-half of
one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles
the holder thereof to purchase an additional Common Share (each, a “Warrant Share”) at a price
of $0.80 until August 4, 2025.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering towards the drilling program at
the Eureka Zone of the Nikolai project in Alaska and general corporate purposes.
The Company paid cash finders’ fees totaling $63,240 and issued 158,100 finder’s warrants (the
“Finder’s Warrants”) to certain qualified arm’s length finders. Each Finder’s Warrant entitles the
holder thereof to acquire one Common Share (a “Finder’s Share”) at a price of $0.60 per Finder’s
Share until August 4, 2025.
The securities issued pursuant to the Offering are subject to a four-month hold period from the
date of issuance under applicable Canadian securities laws.
Gregory Beischer, President, Chief Executive Officer and Director of the Company, and Roland
Butler, Director of the Company, purchased an aggregate of 297,500 Units in the Offering for
gross proceeds of $119,000. The participation by Mr. Beischer and Mr. Butler in the Offering
constitutes a “related party transaction” within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 –
Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The related party
transactions were exempt from minority approval, information circular and formal valuation
requirements pursuant to the exemptions contained in Sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1) of MI 61-101,
