News Release
MURCHISON CLOSES FULLY SUBSCRIBED PRIVATE PLACEMENT
THIS NEWS RELEASE IS INTENDED FOR DISTRIBUTION IN CANADA ONLY AND IS NOT INTENDED FOR
DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES
March 8, 2021 (Burlington, Ontario): Murchison Minerals Ltd. (“Murchison” or the “Company”) (TSXV: MUR) is pleased to
announce that further to its press release dated February 26, 2021, the Company has closed the non-brokered private
placement (the “Private Placement”) as detailed below.
The Company issued 10,000,000 units (the “Units”) at a price of $0.08 per Unit for gross proceeds of $800,000. Proceeds from
the Private Placement will be used by the Company for exploration, working capital and for other general and administrative
costs.
Each Unit consisted of one common share of the Company (a “Common Share”) and one-half of one Common Share purchase
warrant. Each full warrant (a “Warrant”) entitles the holder to acquire one additional Common Share (a “Warrant Share”) for
a period of eighteen months expiring on September 5, 2022 at an exercise price of $0.12 per Warrant Share.
The Private Placement is subject to final acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange. Finder’s fees totaling $18,000 were paid in
relation to the Private Placement. All securities issued under the Private Placement are subject to a four month hold period
until July 6, 2021 in accordance with applicable securities laws.
The Company is also pleased to welcome SIDEX as a new shareholder in Murchison with its subscription for 2,500,000 Units.
SIDEX is an initiative of the Québec government and the Fonds de solidarité FTQ whose mission is to invest in companies
engaged in mineral exploration in Québec in order to diversify the province’s mineral base, promote innovation and new
entrepreneurs.
The Private Placement constituted a “related party transaction” as defined in Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of
Minority Securityholders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”), as insiders of the Company acquired an aggregate of 4,150,000
Units. The Company is relying on the exemptions from the valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI
61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, as the fair market value of the participation in the Private
Placement by insiders does not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of the Company, as determined in accordance with MI
61-101. The Company did not file a material change report in respect of the related party transaction at least 21 days before
the closing of the Private Placement, which the Company deems reasonable in the circumstances in order to complete the
Private placement in an expeditious manner. The Private Placement was approved by all independent directors of the
Company.
