VANCOUVER, Nov. 13, 2024 - Nevada King Gold Corp. (TSXV: NKG) ("Nevada King" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the closing of the brokered portion of its previously announced private placement financing, pursuant to which it issued 17,989,000 common shares of the Company (the "Common Shares") at a price of $0.34 per Common Share for gross proceeds of $6,116,260 (the "Brokered Offering"). The Brokered Offering was completed on a brokered private placement basis through a syndicate of agents led by Desjardins Capital Markets, as lead agent and sole bookrunner, and including Red Cloud Securities Inc., Canaccord Genuity Corp., and Roth Canada, Inc. (collectively, the "Agents").
The Company expects that it will complete the fully allocated non-brokered portion of its offering (the "Non-Brokered Offering") later today for additional gross proceeds of $5,617,770. The total gross proceeds from the Brokered Offering and Non-Brokered Offering, after completion of the Non-Brokered Offering, are expected to be $11,734,030.
The 17,989,000 Common Shares issued under the Brokered Offering were offered for sale on a commercially reasonable "best efforts" fully-marketed basis by way of the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption under Part 5A of National Instrument 45-106 - Prospectus Exemptions to purchasers in all the provinces and territories of Canada, except Québec, and in other qualifying jurisdictions. Common Shares issued in connection with the Brokered Offering are not subject to resale restrictions pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws or the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX-V").
In connection with the Brokered Offering, the Agents received a cash commission of $254,813. The Agents will not receive a fee on the Non-Brokered Private Placement.
Proceeds of the Brokered Offering will be used to advance the Company's Atlanta Gold Mine Project and for working capital purposes of Nevada King. The Brokered Offering and Non-Brokered Offering are subject to final acceptance of the TSX-V.
