16.11.2011  |  Marketwired

HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/16/11 -- Erdene Resource Development Corp. (TSX: ERD) ('Erdene' or 'Company'), is pleased to announce that it intends to issue, by way of a brokered private placement, up to 5,000,000 common shares of the Company at a price of $0.40 per share for gross proceeds of up to $2,000,000 (the 'Private Placement').


'As our company continues to advance our activities in Mongolia, now enhanced by our new gold discovery, we are very pleased to provide Mongolian investors an opportunity to invest in the company', said Peter Akerley, President and CEO. 'We believe it is of strategic value to the company to increase our Mongolian shareholder base and are pleased to do so through a Mongolian firm reflecting the increasing maturity of the mining investment sector in the country as one of the many benefits of the rapidly growing mining industry.'


Mongolia International Capital Corporation ('MICC') will be the broker for the transaction and will be entitled to a commission in the amount of 6.0% of the gross proceeds received from the sale of the common shares, payable in cash. MICC will be targeting a group of Mongolian high net worth investors to complete the private placement.


Net proceeds of the Private Placement will be used for exploration of the Company's projects in Mongolia and working capital. Exploration expenditures will primarily be directed to the Altan Nar project where drilling recently commenced (Erdene Commences Drilling at Altan Nar Epithermal Gold Project Southwest Mongolia. Halifax, Nova Scotia - November 10, 2011) to follow-up on the initial discovery announced in October 2011.


The Private Placement is scheduled to close by November 25, 2011 and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals including the approval and acceptance by the Toronto Stock Exchange. All securities to be issued pursuant to the private placement will be subject to a four month hold period.
