VANCOUVER, May 1, 2018 /CNW/ - Pacton Gold Inc. (TSXV: PAC, OTC: PACXF) (the "Company" or "Pacton") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an amended agreement with Sprott Capital Partners to act as lead agent (the "Lead Agent"), on its own behalf and on behalf of a syndicate of agents including Red Cloud Klondike Strike Inc. (collectively with the Lead Agent, the "Agents"), and has agreed to increase the offering size of the purchased securities from $4,002,000 to $5,550,500 in gross proceeds (the "Offering").
The Offering will consist of 24,132,610 units, each unit consisting of one common share of the Company (a "Common Share") and one transferable common share purchase warrant (a "Warrant") (collectively, a "Unit"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one Common Share for a period of three years from the date of issue at a price of $0.35.
In connection with the Offering, the Agents will be entitled to a cash fee in an amount equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offering. As additional consideration, the Company will grant to the Agents common share purchase warrants (the "Broker Warrants") entitling the Agents to subscribe for that number of common shares equal to 6.0% of the aggregate number of Units placed in the Offering. Subject to regulatory approval, each Broker Warrant will be exercisable to acquire one common share at a price equal to $0.35 for a period of three years after the closing date.
The net proceeds from the Offering will be used for exploration work to be conducted on the Company's properties in Canada and Australia and for general working capital. All of the securities sold pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a four month hold period which will expire four months and one day from the date of issue in accordance with applicable securities laws. The Offering is subject to acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange.
The Offering may close in one or more tranches, with a final closing no later than May 22, 2018 or such other date or dates as the Company and the Lead Agent may agree.

Alec Pismiris
Interim President & CEO
