ORESTONE CLOSES $600,000 NON-BROKERED PRIVATE PLACEMENT
AND SHARES-FOR-DEBT SETTLEMENT;
CRESCAT CAPITAL LLC BECOMES STRATEGIC SHAREHOLDER
Orestone Mining Corp. (TSX Venture Exchange Symbol: ORS) (Frankfurt: O2R2) (“Orestone” or the
“Company”) is pleased to announce the completion of its non-brokered private placement and shares-for-debt settlement
originally announced April 24, 2025 and updated May 23, 2025.
The Company issued 13,333,333 units (“Units”) at a price of $0.045 per Unit for gross proceeds of $599,999.98. Each
Unit consisted of one common share of the Company (“ Common Share”) and one common share purchase warrant
(“Warrant”). Each Warrant is exercisable for one Common Share at a price of $0. 08 until June 13, 2027
(the “Offering”).
The Common Shares and Warrants issued under the Offering and the Common Shares issuable upon exercise of the
Warrants are subject to a hold period that expires on October 14, 2025. Finders’ fees amounting to $7,087.50 were paid
in connection with the Offering. The Offering is subject to final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the
“Exchange”).
The Company is also pleased to welcome a new strategic shareholder, Crescat Capital LLC (“ Crescat”), who has
subscribed for 8,728,328 Units for gross procee ds of $392,774.76. Crescat has subscribed through Crescat Portfolio
Management LLC on behalf of its five (5) Pooled Investment Funds.
A director and officer of the Company purchased or acquired direction and control over a total of 400,000 Units under
the Offering. The placement to such person constitutes a “related party transaction” within the meaning of Exchange
Policy 5.9 (the “ Policy”) and Multilateral Instrument 61-101-Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special
Transactions (“MI 61-101”) adopted in the Policy. The Company has relied on exemptions from the formal 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
in respect of related party participation in the Offering as neither the fair market value (as determined under MI 61-101)
of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value of the consideration for, the transaction, insofar as it involved the
related party, exceeded 25% of the Company's market capitalization (as determined under MI 61-101).
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to (i) develop its Francisca property located in Salta
Province, Argentina (representing approximately 40% of the net proceeds), (ii) to pay the debts owing and outstanding
to certain non -arm’s length parties (representing approximately 17% of the net proceeds), and (iii) for general
administrative expenses and working capital purposes (representing approximately 43% of the net proceeds). No
proceeds of the Offering are proposed to be used for persons conducting investor relations activities.
Shares-for-Debt Settlement
In addition, the Company has issued 3,999,998 common shares to settle an aggregate of $180,000 (the “Debt”) owing to
certain officers, directors and service providers of the Company at a price of $0.0 45 per share (the “Shares-for-Debt
Settlement”). The common shares are subject to a hold period that expires on October 14, 2025.
