Scientific Metals Completes Financing
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - May 25, 2016) - Scientific Metals Corp. ("STM" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:SUG) is pleased to announce that it has completed its previously announced non-brokered private placement of units (each, a "Unit"). STM initially announced that it proposed to issue up to 3,000,000 Units at a price of $0.10 per Unit for gross proceeds of up to $300,000. The private placement was oversubscribed and, as a result, with the prior approval of the TSX Venture Exchange, STM increased the size of the offering. In completing the private placement, STM issued a total of 3,850,000 Units at a price of $0.10 per Unit for gross proceeds of $385,000.
Each Unit is comprised of one common share in the capital of the Company (a "Common Share") and one common share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Common Share at a price of $0.15 per share at any time within 12 months of the date of issuance. All of the securities issued under this private placement are subject to a four month resale restriction. STM intends to use the net proceeds of this private placement for general working capital purposes and identifying new projects.
The Company also announces that it has discontinued its action in the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta against XS Energy Ltd. in relation to STM's previously announced proposed acquisition of a working interest in, and to, a disposal well, surface lease and related assets located in Drayton Valley, Alberta.
