VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Oct 20, 2015) - Select Sands Corp. (TSX VENTURE:SNS)(OTC PINK:CLICF) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that it will conduct a non-brokered private placement of up to 3,750,000 units ("Units") at a price of $0.40 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $1,500,000. Each Unit will be comprised of one common share of the Company and one common share purchase warrant, with each whole warrant entitling the holder to purchase a further common share of the Company at a price of $0.60 for a period of three years after closing.
"We are very pleased to be able to bring additional financing into the Company at a premium to the current market price," stated Rasool Mohammad, President and CEO of Select Sands. "Although the Company is sufficiently funded to reach its milestones, having a strong treasury strengthens the Company's position as a new silica sands provider in the marketplace."
The Company further confirms that no further funds will be raised under the Company's previously announced private placement (see press release dated August 14, 2015). The total amount raised in such offering was $2.69 million.
The Company may pay finders fees and issue compensation warrants in connection with the private placement. Details of any such compensation will be provided in the press release that will be issued on the closing of the private placement. Completion of the private placement and the payment of the finder's fees remain subject to regulatory approval including that of the TSX Venture Exchange. All securities issued under the private placement will have a four-month statutory hold period from the date of issue.
About Select Sands Corp.
Select Sands' Sandtown property, located in northeast Arkansas, USA, is underlain by the Ordovician St. Peter sandstone formation, which is a major source of 'Ottawa White' Tier-1 frac sand/industrial sand selling into major US oil and gas basins as well as industrial and speciality end markets. The Sandtown property is located 3.1 miles from Highway 167 near a natural gas pipeline. The property has an active power line on the property and is located approximately 14.7 miles from the nearest rail system (see December 4, 2014 News Release).
