Imperial Mining Announces Closing the First Tranche
of a Private Placement of Units and Flow-Through Shares
MONTREAL, QUEBEC – December 23, 2022 – Imperial Mining Group Ltd. (“Imperialˮ or the
“Corporation”) (TSX VENTURE: IPG) is pleased to announce that it closed today the first tranche of a
non-brokered private placement (the “Offering”) of 3,670,708 shares on a “flow-through” basis at a price
of $0.11 per share out of a maximum gross proceed of $500,000, and 422,223 units (each, a “Unit”) at a
price of $0.09 per Unit out of a maximum gross proceed of $500,000. Each Unit is comprised of one (1)
common share (each a “Share”) and half (1/2) of a Share purchase warrant, with each whole warrant
entitling the holder to acquire one (1) additional Share of the Corporation at a price of $0.14 over a period
of 24 months from the closing date.
The Corporation was thus able to raise an aggregate gross proceed of $441,778.08 and the Offering is set
for an aggregate gross proceed of a maximum of $1,000,000.
The Corporation will use the proceeds of the Offering to complete exploration drilling on the Southern
Lobe of the Corporation’s Crater Lake scandium-rare earth zone above the -100 m vertical level of the TG
Zone complete optimization work on the process flow sheet and other corporate purposes.
In connection with the Offering, the Corporation paid to finders, which are all at arms’ length with the
Corporation, finders’ fees for a total of $20,240 in cash and issued 184,000 warrants, with each warrant
entitling the holder to acquire one (1) Share of the Corporation at a price of $0.14 over a period of 24-
months from the closing date.
All securities issued pursuant to the Offering are subject to the applicable statutory hold period of four (4)
months and one (1) day from the closing. The Offering is subject to the final approval of the TSX Venture
Exchange.
Two directors of the Corporation, namely Jeff Swinoga and Alain Bureau, each acquired, respectively,
111,112 and 111,111 Units in the Offering and such transaction is considered to be a “related party
transaction” as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 (“MI 61-101”). The transaction is exempt
from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as the Corporation
is listed on the TSX Venture Exchange and the fair market value of any Shares issued to or the consideration
paid does not exceeded 25% of the Corporation’s market capitalization. Imperial did not file a material
change report more than 21 days before the closing of the Offering, as the details of the aforementioned
insiders’ participation had not been confirmed at that time. The board members of Imperial reviewed the
state of the financial market and unanimously determined that the terms and conditions of the Offering,
including the subscriptions of the related parties, were fair and equitable and represented the best strategic
financing option available.
