Redstar Raises CDN$3.6 Million from the Exercise of CDN$0.10 Warrants
October 24, 2016 / TheNewswire / Redstar Gold Corp. (TSX.V: RGC, US: RGCTF, FRA: RGG) ("Redstar" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that 35,897,000 warrants, with an exercise price of CDN$0.10 maturing on October 21, 2016, were exercised. This resulted in gross proceeds of approximatively CDN$3.6 million of net new cash coming into the treasury.
Jacques Vaillancourt, Chairman of Redstar commented, "The management and Board of Redstar are delighted with the expression of confidence from its long standing shareholder base, with over 91% of these warrants exercised. In addition to the recent CDN$4.1 million capital raise in September 2016, the exercise of these warrants leaves the Company's treasury in a strong position. Redstar will use the funds to continue to advance the Company's flagship high grade Unga Gold Project, where we are currently in the midst of a drilling program, and expect to be drilling again in the early spring of 2017. We expect to issue a corporate update later this week."
