Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - March 22, 2021) -
SKRR Exploration Inc. (
TSXV:
SKRR) (OTC Pink: SKKRF) (FSE: B04Q
) ("
SKRR
" or the "
Company
") is pleased to announce that it
has closed the previously announced non-brokered private placement (the "
FT Private Placement
")
consisting of 6,053,300 flow-through common shares (the "
FT Shares
") at a price of $0.30 per FT
Share for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,815,990.
The Company also closed a non-brokered private placement (the "
Private Placement
") consisting of
772,407 units (each, a "
Unit
") at a price of $0.27 per Unit for gross proceeds of $208,550. Each Unit is
comprised of one common share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant. Each whole
warrant is exercisable to purchase one common share of the Company at a price of $0.40 per share for
a period of twenty-four (24) months from the date of closing the Private Placement.
The proceeds from the FT Private Placement and the Private Placement will be used for exploration
expenditures on the Company's projects and for general corporate purposes and working capital.
Sherman Dahl, CEO comments:
"The entire SKRR team looks forward to continued discovery success in 2021.
We are well funded for
the current drilling within the discovery zone of the Olson project, and assays are pending on the exciting
Leland project, which is in close proximity to the SSR Mining/Taiga Gold Fisher project. In addition, gold
is back on investors radar as an asset class, as it should be. Gold seemed irrelevant for many a few
weeks ago; there was more action in other sectors.
Gold is back as a player on the field again, after
being benched for a while.
The closing of this current financing demonstrates the commitment of our
retail and institutional investors towards the SKRR team and gold discovery in the underexplored
Saskatchewan Trans Hudson Corridor."
All securities issued in connection with the FT Private Placement and the Private Placement are subject
to a four month hold period from the closing date in accordance with applicable securities laws. In
connection with the FT Private Placement and the Private Placement, the Company paid aggregate
cash finder's fees of $119,944.28 and issued 353,500 non-transferable compensation options
exercisable for the purchase of Units at $0.27 per Unit for a period of twenty-four (24) months from the
date of closing.
A portion of the FT Private Placement and the Private Placement constitutes a "related party
