Noble provides exploration update, earn-in on Carnegie Township
properties and private placement
Toronto, Ontario – August 25 , 2017 – Noble Mineral Exploration Inc. (“Noble” or the
“Company”) (TSX-V:NOB, FRANKFURT: NB7, OTC.PK:NLPXF)
Heliborne EM/Mag Survey:
Noble is awaiting final results and interpretation from a 2100 line kilometers Heliborne EM and
Mag survey executed by Balch Exploration Consulting Inc (“ BECI”) over Carnegie, Crawford,
Prosser and Lucas Townships. These townships are the most southern townships on Project
81, that have not been previously flown with modern and proprietary airborne surveys. Carnegie
Twp is located immediately north of the world -class Kidd Creek mine currently celebrating its
50th continuous year of production.
The object of the survey is to identify discrete conductors that could be located on the ground to
follow up on historical drilling that exhibit copper-lead-zinc mineralization (e.g. Kidd-Creek style),
nickel-copper sulphide mineralization, and gold mineralization that were the result of 1950’s to
1970’s airborne surveys, that could not accurately locate the conductors on the ground and as a
result the best conductors of these anomalous trends were not drill tested.
The system used by BECI in this heliborne survey was the AirTEM -150, a compact and
concentric helicopter time domain EM system that can penetrate to depths of 400 m with high
resolution. Measurements of the three axes of the EM secondary field are measured in a full
waveform mode and the resulting profiles are used to determine the size, orientation,
conductance and depth of the anomalous source.
Option and JV Agreement:
Noble is also pleased to announce that it h as entered into an Option and Joint Venture
Agreement (the “ JV Agreement ”) with a group of sophisticated private investors (the
“Optionees”) on 2,000 hecatares of lands located within Carnegie Township. Subject to the
terms and conditions of the JV Agreement, the Optionees would earn a 51% interest (the “ Base
Interest”) in certain targets based on the final results of the above referred to survey in
Carnegie by carrying out exploration expenditures of $ 1 million within the first year of the JV
Agreement. The Optionees would then have the right to exercise a second option to earn an
additional 24% by carrying out additional exploration expenditures of $1 million within one year
after earning the Base Interest.
The Company plans on entering into additional Option and Joint Venture agreements with other
parties on other targets and townships within Project 81.
Financing
The Company is also undertaking a private placement (the “ Private Placement ”) of up to
20,000,000 common share units (“ Common Share Units”) priced at $0.06 per Common Share
Unit, and up to 10,000,000 flow -through units (“ Flow-Through Units ”) at $0.075 per Flow -
Through Unit. The gross proceeds to be raised in this Private Placement is $1,950,000. Noble
has engaged IBK Capital Corp. (“ IBK”) to place, on a best effort s basis, up to 10,000,000
Common Share Units and up to 10,000,000 Flow -Through Units (the “ IBK Portion of the
Private Placement”), and will pursue the balance of the Private Placement . In connection with
the IBK Portion of the Private Placement, the Company agreed to pay IBK a cash commission
of 9% of the amount raised through its assistance and 10% of the amount raised in broker
warrants.
Each Common Share Unit consists of one common share of Noble and one common share
purchase warrant. Each common share purchase warrant (a “ Warrant”) will entitle the holder to
acquire one common share of Noble at an exercise price of $0.10 per share for a period of 5
years following the closing. Each Flow-Through Unit consists of one common share of Noble to
be issued as a “flow through share” and one non-flow-through Warrant.
The securities to be issued in this Private Placement will be subject to a four month hold period.
The closing of the Private Placement is subject to completion of formal documentation and the
approval of the TSX Venture Exchange, as well as any other required regulatory approvals.
Noble will use the proceeds raised through the placement of Common Share Units for general
working capital purposes, including paying certain creditors, while the proceeds raised through
the placement of Flow-Through Units will be used for exploration purposes, including to fund an
exploration drilling program on the Company’s Lucas gold project in Project 81.
Vance White, Noble’s President and CEO commented: “We’re pleased to get this ~70,000
Hectare Project Area back on track as we feel there is a tremendous opportunity to identify
mineral wealth on what has been a relatively underexplored project area in close proximity to
very satisfactory infrastructure. A number of drill ready targets have already been identified in
the northern eight townships. Noble believes that VMS deposits of the Kidd Creek type occur in
clusters.”.
