Vancouver, September 29, 2022 - Ridgeline Minerals Corp. (TSXV: RDG) (OTCQB: RDGMF) (FSE: 0GC0) ("Ridgeline" or the "Company") announces it has closed its previously announced financing (see news releases of September 9, 2022 and September 27, 2022) and issued 12,732,500 units (each a "Unit") of the Company at a price of $0.20 per Unit for gross proceeds of $2,546,500 (the "Financing").
Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one additional common share in the capital of the Company at a price of $0.30 per share until September 29, 2024.
The proceeds from the sale of the Units will be used to fund the Company's exploration programs as outlined in the news release dated August 31, 2022 and for general working capital. In connection with the Financing the Company has paid aggregate finders' fees of $45,900 in cash.
All securities issued pursuant to the Financing will be subject to a statutory four month and one day hold period expiring on January 30, 2023.
Insiders of the Company participated in the Offering for an aggregate amount of approximately $25,500. Such participation is considered a related party transaction within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). In completing such transaction, Golden Ridge relied on the applicable exemptions from the valuation requirement and minority security holder approval requirements available under Sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(a) of MI 61-101, respectively, on the basis that the participation in the Offering by insiders did not exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.
