08.05.2014  |  Marketwired
TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired - May 8, 2014) - Galantas Gold Corporation (Galantas or the Company) (TSX VENTURE:GAL) (AIM:GAL) announces that it has closed its Private Placement (the "Placing") announced on the 8th April 2014.

Subscriptions were received from UK institutional investors, Kenglo One Ltd ("Kenglo"), a number of qualifying private investors, including some local to the Omagh mine and clients of Jennings Capital Inc of Toronto, Canada to raise £516,500 (before expenses) representing 10,330,000 units. Each unit is comprised of one ordinary share and one warrant. Each warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one further new ordinary share at UKGBP0.10 (ten pence) per share for a period of two years from the date on which the Placing closed. The new ordinary shares issued pursuant to the Placing are subject to a four month hold period. Commissions of CDN$8156.25 were paid in connection with the Placing. Final documentation in respect of the Placing has been submitted to the TSX Venture Exchange.

The funds raised are to be applied to the following purposes:

- The examination and implementation of a cost effective processing route for re-treatment of low grade tailings sands;

- Continued work on cost reduction within a detailed feasibility study and updating resource / reserve assessment at the Omagh property

- Progression of underground planning permits, on which the Company expects substantive progress during the second quarter of 2014.

- Working capital purposes.

Kenglo has subscribed for 5,000,000 units for a sum of £250,000. Post the closing of the transaction and the share for debt exchange detailed below, the Company is advised that Kenglo will hold 13,222,068 shares and 5,000,000 warrants in Galantas representing 20.9% of the enlarged Galantas issued share capital, on a diluted basis. As a result, Kenglo is deemed to be a related party of Galantas by virtue of being a Substantial Shareholder in the Company (as defined in the AIM Rules for Companies). As a consequence, the Directors consider, having consulted with their nominated adviser, Charles Stanley Securities, that the terms of the subscription by Kenglo, are fair and reasonable insofar as shareholders are of concerned.

An application for a shares for debt exchange (the "Debt Exchange"), as approved by shareholders on 16th January 2014, is being made to the TSX Venture Exchange. As announced previously, Roland Phelps (President & Chief Executive) has agreed to exchange a loan of GBP£718,256 for 14,365,120 new ordinary shares. Leo O'Shaughnessy (Chief Financial Officer) has agreed to exchange a loan of £16,025 for 320,500 new ordinary shares. Amounts due to certain other third party creditors have also agreed to settlement of amounts owed totalling GBP£21,976, through the issue of 439,520 new ordinary shares. Following the Debt Exchange and the Placing, Mr Phelps and Mr O'Shaughnessy will hold 24.7 per cent and 0.4 per cent of the Galantas enlarged issued share capital respectively. No Warrants will be attached to the new ordinary shares issued in relation to any of the Debt Exchange. This Debt Exchange remains subject to the final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Subject to Toronto Venture Exchange approval of the transactions, application has been made for the 10,330,000 common shares, subject to the Placing, and 15,125,140 common shares, subject to the Debt Exchange, to trading on AIM and admission is expected on 12th May 2014.
