Kutcho Copper Announces $4 Million Financing
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE U.S
Vancouver, B .C., April 17, 202 3. Kutcho Copper Corp. (TSXV: KC) (OTC: KCCFF) (“Kutcho
Copper” or the “Company”) announces that it has arranged a non-brokered private placement (the “Private
Placement”) to raise total proceeds of up to $4,000,000. The Private Placement will consist of 8,000,000
units (“Units”) at a price of $0.25 per Unit for gross Unit proceeds of $2,000,000 and 6,666,667 units
consisting of flow-through units (“FT Units”) at a price of $0.30 per FT Unit of the Company for gross FT
Unit proceeds of $2,000,000.
Vince Sorace, President & CEO of Kutcho Copper comments: “ This financing allows us to begin the
detailed regional exploration plan as outlined in our press release dated February 28, 2023. The Kutcho
Project has not seen any significant exploration since 1990. The prospective mineralized horizons that host
the existing deposits repeat three times acr oss our land position and volcanogenic massive sulphide
(“VMS”) deposits typically occur in clusters along favourable horizons. With three deposits already
identified along the Main -Sumac-Esso horizon, the Project has the making of a substantive VMS distr ict
and has potential for discovery of completely new deposits.”
Each Unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a “Common Share”) and
one-half transferable common share purchase warrant (each whole, a “Warrant”), exercisable at a price of
$0.40 per common share for a period of 24 months from the closing date, subject to accelerated expiry as
described herein.
Each FT Unit will consist of one flow -through share in the capital of the Company (each, a “FT Share”)
and one-half transferable Warrant, exercisable at a price of $0.45 per common share for a period of 24
months from the closing date, subject to accelerated expiry as described herein. Each FT Share will be a
Common Share that will qualify as a “flow-through share” for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada).
Each FT Share will entitle the holder thereof the same rights as holders of Common Shares, as described
below.
If the closing price of the Company’s Common Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (or such other
principal exchange on which the Common Shares may be traded at such time) is equal to or greater than
$0.60 for a period of 10 consecutive trading days, the Company may (but is not required to), at its sole
discretion, accelerate the expiry date of Warrants to the date which is 30 days following the date upon which
notice of the accelerated expiry date is provided by the Company to the holders of the Warrants (given by
way of news release).
The Company intends to use the gross proceeds raised from the sale of FT Shares (comprised within the
FT Units) for exploration on its Kutcho property in British Columbia that will qualify as “Canadian
exploration expense” and “flow-through critical mineral mining expenditure” (both within the meaning of
the Income Tax Act (Canada)) and which will be incurred on or before December 31, 2024 and renounced
with an effective date no later than December 31, 2023 to the initial purchasers of FT Shares (comprised
within the FT Units). The Company intends to use the net proceeds raised from the sale of Units for general
administrative and working capital expenses.
