Desert Gold Announces Non-Brokered Private
Placement and CAD $700,000 in Lead Orders
Surrey, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 1, 2024) -
Desert Gold Ventures Inc.
(TSXV:
DAU) (FSE: QXR2) (OTCQB: DAUGF) ("Desert Gold" or "the Company") announces that, subject to
exchange approval and the right to increase the offering, it will conduct a non-brokered private
placement of up to
10,000,000 units at a price of CAD $0.07 per unit (the "Unit") to raise up to CAD
$700,000 (the "Financing").
Each Unit will consist of one common share in the equity of the Company and a share purchase warrant
(the "Warrant").
Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional common share of the
Company at a price of CAD $0.08 per common share for a period of three (3) years from the closing of
the Financing.
The Company may pay a finder's fee to qualified individuals in respect to the Financing.
Securities issued from the Financing will be subject to a statutory hold period.
The Company intends to close the initial CAD $700,000 in lead orders upon exchange approval. Due to
additional interest in the Financing, the Company may upsize and extend the close of its offering in the
coming days.
The proceeds of the Financing will be immediately used to fund a Preliminary Economic Assessment
("PEA") that will focus on the extraction of gold from the oxide and transition mineral resources by heap
leach at its Barani East and Gourbassi West gold deposits. Overall, the oxide and transition portion of
the two deposits contains measured and indicated mineral resources of 131,000 ounces* of gold
grading 1.41 g/t Au and inferred mineral resources of 55,000 ounces* of gold grading 1.22 g/t Au.
Should any directors and officers of the Company acquire Units under the Financing such participation is
a related party transaction as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101
Protection of Minority
Security Holders in Special Transactions
("
MI 61-101
"). The transaction will be exempt from the formal
valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 if neither the fair market value of
any securities issued to or the consideration paid by such persons will exceed 25% of the Company's
market capitalization.

responsible for the contents and accuracy of any scientific and technical information related to it. Don
