NEWS RELEASE
Solomon to raise up to $750,000 in Flow-Through and $500,000 in Non-Flow-Through Unit Private Placements
April 2, 2012 Trading Symbol: TSX-V.SRB
Vernon, B.C. – Monday, April 2nd, 2012. Solomon Resources Limited (SRB: TSX-V) proposes to raise up to $750,000 through a private placement of flow-through units at $0.09 per unit and up to $500,000 through a private placement of non-flow-through units at $0.07 per unit.
Each flow-through unit will consist of one common share and one non- transferable share purchase warrant to purchase a further (non-flow-through) common share for $0.12 for one year.
Each non-flow-through unit will consist of one common share and one non-transferable share purchase warrant to purchase a further common share at $0.10 for two years.
Finders’ fees of 8% will be paid on funds raised from investors introduced by finders. Solomon will also issue warrants to such finders to purchase that number of (non-flow through) common shares equal to 8% of the number of units sold to investors introduced by the finders. The finder warrants will be exercisable at $0.10 per share for one year (for finder warrants issued in respect of the flowthrough units) or two years (for finder warrants issued in respect of non-flow-through units).
The expiry date of all warrants may be reduced to 25 trading days from notice thereof if the closing price of Solomon’s shares equals or exceeds $0.25 for 20 consecutive trading days after the expiry of the four month restricted resale period.
The proceeds of this placement will be used for the exploration of Solomon’s interests in the Yukon Territory, claim staking, and general corporate overhead.
