J2 Metals Inc. Announces Private Placement
J2 Metals Inc. Announces Private Placement
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - January 19, 2026) - J2 Metals Inc. (TSXV: JTWO) ("
J2
"
or the "
Company
") announces that it intends to complete a non-brokered private placement of up to
10,000,000 subscription receipts (the "
Subscription Receipts
") at a price of $0.25 per Subscription
Receipt for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $2,500,000 (the "
Offering
").
Each Subscription Receipt will entitle the holder thereof to receive, upon satisfaction of the escrow
release conditions that includes completion of the Company's previously announced plan of arrangement
between the Company and Twenty Mile Metals Inc. and without payment of any additional consideration
or any further action on the part of the holder, one common share in the capital of the Company and one
half of one common share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one
common share at an exercise price of $0.40 per share at any time for a period of 24 months following
the date of conversion of the Subscription Receipts.
J2's CEO, Thomas Lamb, commented: "
Beginning six years ago, as a private company, we acquired
two compelling gold projects from Kenorland. We then raised and spent considerable money on
geophysics and drilling. These projects are Miniac in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt, Quebec, and
Napoleon in Alaska's Fortymile District. Both projects already had significant historic gold intercepts
drilled by majors and we advanced them meaningfully. But in due course, like many, we were forced to
down tools, consolidated our shares, and wait. My co-founder Toby Pierce and I largely funded the
Company during this period. But now it appears our time has come. We IPO'd the Company early last
year and recently, in a coup, have optioned Sierra Plata from IMPACT Silver.
See our December 22,
2025, press release
here
. Sierra Plata is a silver-gold project in the Royal Mines of Zacualpan District
of Mexico. The 2,200 hectare project area contains five historical silver-gold mines and many smaller
workings. It is not just silver- and gold-rich, with major discovery potential, it is also highly prospective
for antimony, which is at record highs.
"I should mention that the spinout of our Twenty Mile project into a new entity, announced December
2025, is in process and nearly complete. The private placement announced here is structured as a
subscription receipt because investors in it are not entitled to a position in Twenty Mile. As with a
standard private placement, the hold period is four months.
"
The gross proceeds from the sale of the Subscription Receipts will be held in escrow pending
satisfaction of the escrow release conditions. If the escrow release conditions are not satisfied then the
escrowed funds will be returned to the holders of the Subscription Receipts, together with any accrued
interest thereon, and the Subscription Receipts shall be cancelled without any further action by the
holders thereof.
The Subscription Receipts and the securities into which they are convertible, will bear a hold period of 4
months and a day from the closing of the Offering.
The Company may pay finders' fees in connection with the Offering. Completion of the Offering is subject
to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals,
including acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of
the Offering for general corporate purposes.
