09.09.2019  |  CNW

/THIS NEWS RELEASE IS INTENDED FOR DISTRIBUTION IN CANADA ONLY AND IS NOT INTENDED FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES./

TORONTO, Sept. 9, 2019 - Laurion Mineral Exploration Inc. (TSX.V: LME and OTCPINK: LMEFF) ("LAURION" or the "Corporation") is pleased to announce that further to its July 24, 2019 and August 13, 2019 announcements, the Corporation has closed its second and final tranche (the "Second Tranche") of the previously-announced non-brokered private placement (the "Private Placement") of flow-through units (the "Units"). Pursuant to the Second Tranche, the Corporation issued 5,416,667 Units at a price of $0.12 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $650,000. Together with the first tranche of the Private Placement (the "First Tranche"), the Corporation raised $1 million through the issuance of 8,333,333 Units.

Each Unit consists of one common share of the Corporation issued as a "flow-through share" (as defined in subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Tax Act")) (each, a "FT Share") and one common share purchase warrant (each, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one non flow-through common share of the Corporation at a price of $0.15 per share for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance.

The gross proceeds allocable to the FT Shares comprising the Units will be used for "Canadian exploration expenses" (within the meaning of the Tax Act), which will qualify, once renounced, as "flow-through mining expenditures", as defined in the Tax Act, which will be renounced with an effective date of no later than December 31, 2019 (provided the subscriber deals at arm's length with the Corporation at all relevant times) to the initial purchasers of Units in an aggregate amount not less than the gross proceeds raised from the issue of the Units which are allocable to the FT Shares.

In connection with the Second Tranche, certain arm's-length finders received an aggregate of $22,400 as a cash finder's commission and an aggregate of 186,666 finder's warrants having the same attributes as the Warrants. The Corporation did not pay any finders' fees or issue any finder's warrants in connection with the First Tranche.

Pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws, all securities issued pursuant to the Private Placement are subject to a hold period of four months and one day, expiring on December 13, 2019 and January 7, 2020, respectively. The Private Placement remains subject to the final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Issuance of Stock Options

The Corporation also announces that pursuant to its stock option plan, subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval, LAURION has granted incentive stock options to one of its directors, John Covello, to acquire a total of 241,664 common shares of the Corporation, exercisable on or before September 9, 2029 at an exercise price of $0.15 per share, subject to vesting requirements. These stock options are part of a discretionary performance bonus awarded to Mr. Covello in recognition of his significant contributions to the Corporation's capital raising initiatives.
