VANCOUVER, Feb. 24, 2022 - Newrange Gold Corp. ("Newrange" or the "Company") (TSXV:NRG) (OTC:NRGOF) (Frankfurt:X6C) is pleased to announce the closing of the first tranche of a non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of $408,100 consisting of 5,830,332 non-flow-through units (the "NFT Units") at a price of $0.07 per unit. Each NFT Unit consists of one common share of the Company and one-half share purchase warrant (each whole share purchase warrant, a "NFT Warrant"). Each NFT Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one common share at an exercise price of $0.12 at any time until February 23, 2024. Proceeds will be used for general working capital and for continued surface exploration on the Pamlico project in Nevada. The Company also announces a parallel non-brokered flow-through private placement for gross proceeds of up to $1,500,000 consisting of 15,000,000 units of the Company (the "FT Units") at a price of $0.10 per FT Unit. Each FT Unit consists of one common share of the Company and one-half share purchase warrant (each whole share purchase warrant, a "FT Warrant"). Each FT Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one common share at an exercise price of $0.12 at any time until February 23, 2024. Proceeds will be used to advance the Company's Argosy Gold Mine Project in the Red Lake Mining Division of Ontario. The FT financing and the second and final tranche of the NFT financing (approximately $100,000) are expected to close in approximately two weeks.
Cash finder's fees or commissions in the amount of $13,720 were paid on the first tranche of the NFT financing and the Company issued 63,000 share purchase finders warrants (the "Finders Warrants"). Each Finders Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one common share at an exercise price of $0.12 for a two-year period.
