ARRAS MINERALS INCREASES NON-BROKERED FINANCING TO C$4.5 MILLION

Due to strong demand, Arras Minerals Corp.'s previously announced non-brokered private placement financing has been increased from up to $2-million to up to $4.5-million.

Darren Klinck, president of Arras, commented: "We are very pleased with the exceptional strong support from current shareholders in this financing. As we have commenced our third field season in Kazakhstan, it is clear that the progress we have made over the past two years on our project portfolio in the country has advanced a number of very exciting targets. This increased financing will allow us to broaden and expand the program at Elemes and provide flexibility to be opportunistic as our understanding at the Elemes and Tay projects continues to increase."

The company announced on May 21, 2024, that it had arranged a non-brokered private placement financing of up to 7,692,308 units of the company at a price per unit of 26 cents for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $2-million. Following the upsizing, the offering will now comprise up to 17,307,692 units at the offering price for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $4.5-million. Under the offering, each unit shall comprise one common share in the capital of the company and one-half of one non-transferable common share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one additional common share at a price of 40 cents for a period of three years from the closing of the offering.

In the event the volume-weighted average trading price of the common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange meets or exceeds 60 cents for 15 consecutive trading days at any time after four months and one day following closing of the offering, the company shall have the option, but not the obligation, at any time thereafter to accelerate the expiry date to a date that is 30 days following the date of issuance of a press release by the company announcing the acceleration of the expiry date.

The offering is scheduled to close on or about June 4, 2024, and is subject to the approval of the TSX-V. The securities issued pursuant to the offering will be subject to a four-month hold period in Canada and will be subject to U.S. resale restrictions under U.S. securities laws as applicable.
