The Company is in the process of updating its previously filed National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report on the Cassiar Gold Property to incorporate an exploration update on the drilling programs that have taken place since the publication of the report filed in September 2019. The Independent Qualified Person for the report, Scott Zelligan, P.Geo, is working with the Company's in-house technical team to provide the updates, and completion of the new report is expected by mid-April. The updates to the report will principally summarize exploration activities for which results have been reported in the Company's continuous disclosures since September 2019.
Marco Roque, President and Chief Executive Officer of Cassiar Gold, stated: "We are truly grateful for the overwhelming investor interest and demand for our bought deal public financing, which was upsized from C$6 million to C$10 million and still heavily oversubscribed. We are now committed to working towards closing the financing as quickly as possible while we prepare for our most exciting and aggressive exploration campaign to date at the Cassiar Gold Property."
The Offering is now expected to close on or before April 30, 2022. Filing of the final prospectus remains subject to all necessary regulatory and exchange approvals and the terms and conditions of the underwriting agreement dated March 8, 2022, which has been filed under the Company's profile on www.sedar.com.
