Tranche of Non-Brokered Private Placement
and Begins Mobilization for Infill Program
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - March 18, 2025) - Zodiac Gold Inc. (TSXV: ZAU)
("
Zodiac Gold
" or the "
Company
"), a West-African gold exploration company, is pleased to announce
that, further to the Company's news release dated February 6, 2025, it has closed a first tranche of its
C$1,000,000 non-brokered private placement (the "
Offering
") for gross proceeds of approximately
C$404,310 (the "
First Tranche
"). The net proceeds of the Offering will be used to mobilize and launch
our Phase III infill drill program at the Arthington target, advance exploration across the Company's three
exploration licenses, and for general working capital purposes.
David Kol, CEO, commented,
"The successful closing of this first tranche is a key milestone as we
accelerate our Phase III infill drill program at the Arthington target. This funding allows us to advance
exploration across our licenses, bringing us closer to unlocking the full potential of our Todi project.
We remain committed to delivering results that create long-term value for our shareholders."
Pursuant to the First Tranche closing of the Offering, the Company issued 5,775,857 units of the
Company (each a "
Unit
") at a price of C$0.07 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one common share of the
Company (a "
Common Share
") and one Common Share purchase warrant (a "
Warrant
"). Each
Warrant issued in the First Tranche entitles the holder to purchase one Common Share (a "
Warrant
Share
") at an exercise price of C$0.12 per Warrant Share for a period of 24 months following the
closing of the First Tranche.
All securities issued pursuant to the First Tranche closing of the Offering, including Common Shares
issuable upon the exercise of Warrants, are and will be subject to a hold period of four months and one
day after the date of closing of the First Tranche.
The securities described herein have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "
U.S. Securities Act
"), or any state securities laws, and
accordingly, may not be offered or sold within the United States except in compliance with the
registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities requirements or
pursuant to exemptions therefrom. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation
to buy any securities in any jurisdiction.
Insider Participation
An insider participated in the Offering and subscribed for an aggregate of 642,857 Units for a total of
approximately C$45,000.
Such participation is considered to be a "related party transaction" as defined
under the policies of the TSXV and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 -
Protection of Minority Security
Holders in Special Transactions (
"MI 61-101"). The Company has relied on exemptions from the
minority shareholder approval and formal valuation requirements applicable to the related-party
transactions under sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a), respectively, of MI 61-101, as the fair market value (as
determined under MI 61-101) of the Units acquired by the insider and the consideration paid by such
insider does not exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.
The Company did not file a
material change report concerning the related party transaction at least 21 days before the closing of the
Offering, which the Company deems reasonable in the circumstances to complete the Offering
expeditiously.
