West High Yield Announces Private Placement
CALGARY, Alberta, Feb. 28, 2018 -- West High Yield (W.H.Y.) Resources Ltd. (" West High Yield" or the "Company")
(TSXV:WHY) announces that it proposes to complete a non-brokered private placement of units ("Units"). There is no
minimum subscription for this offering and a maximum of 2,428,571 Units will be issued at a price of $0.35 per Unit for gross
proceeds of up to $850,000. Each Unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the Company (a "Common Share ")
and one-third of one common share purchase warrant (a "Warrant "). Each whole Warrant would entitle the holder to purchase
one additional Common Share at an exercise price of $0.55 for a period of one year from the date of issuance of the Warrant.
The proposed private placement is subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals including the approval of the TSX
Venture Exchange. The Company confirms that, as of the date of this press release, there is no "material fact" or "material
change" (as those terms are defined under applicable securities laws) related to the Company which has not been generally
disclosed.
Assuming the maximum offering is completed, approximately $750,000 of the net proceeds are expected to be used for the
continuation of the environmental base line study, environmental assessment study and mine plan and permit application and
Industrial Quarry Permit application for its Record Ridge deposit near Rossland, British Columbia and the balance of the net
proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes.
The Industrial Quarry Permit sought under the Mines Act (British Columbia) will allow for the extraction and sale of up to
249,999 tonnes per annum of industrial rock. The Company is also in the process of developing potential customers with
processing facilities and the ability to process the industrial rock. It is anticipated that industrial rock sales will provide cash
flows from operations while continued mine plan and permit application efforts are being made.
