Ubique has closed a private placement (press release dated September 1, 2020) to raise $56,000 from the issuance of 933,400 Flow-Through Shares each priced at $0.06 per Share. Insiders of the Company have invested $42,000 in this private placement financing. The terms of this private placement are subject to approval by the Canadian Stock Exchange ("CSE").
The proceeds are intended to be used for additional drilling on Ubique's Daniels Harbour Zinc Project and on the adjacent MinKap Resources Inc. ("KAP") option property, on the island of Newfoundland, Canada. The KAP option was announced in press releases dated December 6th, 2018 and February 14th, 2019 and drilling results and drilling plans have been announced in press releases dated October 2nd, 2018, October 29th, 2018 and February 28th, 2019. All these press releases are available from the Company website and SEDAR (www.sedar.com).
A diamond drilling contract has been signed and the contractor has mobilized a drill to the property. The first holes will be drilled in the PE Zone to extend that deposit and then the drill will be moved to the 2160 Zone on the KAP option property.
Additional soil sampling has been undertaken in the area previously sampled on the East Mineral License to fill in a gap in the sampling which will assist in determining the limits of the anomalous area. The contoured map of the zinc anomaly is available for viewing on the company website listed below. A video showing the set up of the drill is also posted to the website.
