Evergold Opts to Close Off its Previously Announced Private Placement
Financing at a Single Tranche, Pending Exploration News and a Subsequent
Financing, to be Announced
TORONTO, Nov. 16, 2020 --
Evergold Corp. (TSX-V: EVER, OTC: EVGUF, FRA: 5EG) (“Evergold” or the “Company”). As announced on October 9, the
Company had chosen to await initial assays from drilling this summer at the Company’s promising GL 1 Main target, located
on the Golden Lion property in northern B.C., prior to completing the second tranche of its previously announced (news,
August 26 and 28) tranched private placement (the “ Offering”). Following inordinate delays, in the past two weeks assay
results have begun to arrive with some regularity from the laboratory, and the release of drilling results from Golden Lion is now
imminent. However, the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) advises that the time limit for closing of the second tranche
has expired, and further extensions will not be granted. Accordingly, the Company has decided to file with the Exchange
formal closing documents for the August 26/28 financing, and shall instead announce in the very near future, a new financing in
place of the previously anticipated second tranche.
The Offering consisted of the sale of 2,173,600 hard dollar units (“HD Unit”) to a fund and retail investors at a price of $0.50 per
HD Unit for gross hard dollar proceeds of $1,086,800, plus the sale of 325,000 flow-through shares (“ FT Shares ”), all to retail
investors, at a price of $0.60 per FT Share, for gross flow-through proceeds of $195,000. Gross proceeds, hard dollars and flow
-through combined, amounted to $1,281,800.
All securities issued and issuable pursuant to the Offering are subject to a hold period of four months and one day from the
date of issuance. Completion of the Offering is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all
necessary approvals, including approval of the Exchange and applicable securities regulatory authorities. In connection with
the Offering, the Company has paid a commission of an aggregate of 89,852 common share purchase warrants (“ Broker
Warrants”) and $46,801 to eligible finders in accordance with the policies of the Exchange. Each whole Broker Warrant
entitles the holder to purchase one Common Share within 24 months from the date of issuance at a price of $0.60 per
Common Share if exercised in the first 12 months and $0.70 per Common Share if exercised in the second 12 months.
The proceeds raised from the sale of FT Shares will be used to incur “Canadian exploration expenses” that are “flow-through
mining expenditures” (as such terms are defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Tax Act”)) on the Company’s flagship
Snoball and Golden Lion properties (the “Properties”) in northern British Columbia, Canada. The proceeds raised from the sale
of HD Units will be used for general working capital purposes and for exploration on Properties.
This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to sell of any of the securities in the United
States. The securities 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 state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to U.S.
Persons unless registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such
registration is available.
About Evergold
Evergold Corp. has been assembled by a team with a record of recent success in British Columbia, combining four 100%-
owned properties in prime geological real estate from one of BC’s best-known geologists, C.J. (Charlie) Greig, with seasoned
management and a qualified board. The Company’s flagship assets consist of the 3,545 hectare Snoball property, located in
the heart of BC’s famed Golden Triangle only 12 kilometres off highway 37, where drilling this summer by the Company
achieved the discovery of a new high-grade gold-silver system on Pyramid Peak, and the 5,099 hectare Golden Lion property,
located well to the east of Snoball in similar Stikine terrane rocks, at the north end of the Toodoggone region, where drilling by
Newmont in a declining gold price environment in 1984 returned encouraging intercepts that were never pursued until
Evergold’s recent exploration efforts on the property.
