Provenance Gold Closes Additional Tranche of Funding and Progresses Towards Drilling of its Silver Bow Property
Vancouver, February 12, 2020 - Provenance Gold Corp. (CSE: PAU) (FSE: 3PG) (the "Company") is pleased to announce the closing of an additional tranche of its previously announced private placement (the "Placement"). In connection with the completion of this additional tranche, the Company has issued 1,000,000 units (each, a "Unit") at a price of $0.15 per Unit for gross proceeds of $150,000. Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (each, a "Share") and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each, a "Warrant") with each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one additional common share (each, a "Warrant Share") of the Company at a price of $0.30 per Warrant Share for a period of twenty four (24) months from their date of issue.
The Company expects to close on an additional tranche of funding later this quarter which will enable the Company to drill its Silver Bow gold and silver property now that all assays have been reviewed and several strong gold and silver targets have been identified.
The initial drilling will focus on the property's Blue Horse target. This target is a bleached and silicified zone that is at least 100 meters wide and visibly extends for more than 600 meters before it goes under shallow alluvial cover. Local bedrock exposures suggest it continues much further to the northwest. All of Provenance's surface samples across and along the zone have been strongly gold and silver mineralized with several samples containing high-grade multigram gold and silver. The Company plans to complete a 5000-foot drill program of up to 15 holes as soon as the third tranche of funding is received. Proceeds of this Placement will be used to advance the Company's projects as previously announced and for general working capital.
All securities issued in connection with the Placement will be subject to a four-month-and-one-day statutory hold period in accordance with applicable securities laws.
