EMERGENT ANNOUNCES PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Emergent Metals Corp. will conduct a non-brokered private
placement of up to 12.5 million units at a price of 12 cents per unit to raise
gross proceeds of up to $1.5-million. Each unit will consist of one common share in the capital of the
company and one whole non-transferable common share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant will be exercisable to acquire one share at an exercise price of 15 cents per share
for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance. The offering is subject to a minimum subscription
amount of $2,400.
Certain insiders of the company may acquire units in the offering. Any participation by insiders in the
private placement would constitute a related party transaction as defined under Multilateral Instrument
61-101, Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions. However, the
company expects such participation would be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder
approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value of the units subscribed for by the insiders nor
the consideration for the units paid by such insiders would exceed 25 per cent of the company's market
capitalization.
Emergent intends to use the net proceeds of the offering for exploration of Emergent's properties (including
property and claims maintenance payments), for property acquisition and for general working capital
purposes. The company may pay finders' fees on a portion of the offering, subject to compliance with the
policies of the TSX Venture Exchange and applicable securities legislation. Closing of the offering is
subject to approval of the TSX-V. The securities issued under the offering, and any shares
that may be issuable on exercise of any such securities will be subject to a statutory hold period expiring
four months and one day from the date of issuance of such securities.
About Emergent Metals Corp.
Emergent is a gold and base metal exploration company focused on Nevada and Quebec. The company's
strategy is to look for quality acquisitions, add value to these assets through exploration, and monetize them
through sale, joint ventures, option, royalty and other transactions to create value for its shareholders
(acquisition and divestiture (A&D) business model). Successful divestitures include the sale of the Troilus
North property to Troilus Gold Corp., sale of the East-West property to O3 Mining
Corp. and option of the Mindora property to Lahontan Gold Corp.
In Nevada, Emergent's Golden Arrow property is an advanced-stage gold and silver property with a well-defined measured and indicated resource, 2018 technical report, and plan of operations and
environmental assessment in place to allow a major drilling program, subject to financing. New York
Canyon is a copper skarn, copper porphyry and gold exploration property south of and abutting the historic
past-producing Santa Fe gold mine, being advanced by Lahontan. The Mindora property is a gold, silver and base metal property located 12 miles from New York Canyon and under option to Lahontan.
Lahontan must complete $1.8-million (U.S.) in cash/share payments and $1.4-million (U.S.) in exploration
expenditures over a seven-year period to earn a 100-per-cent interest in the property. Buckskin Rawhide East is a
gold and silver property leased to Rawhide Mining LLC, operator of the Rawhide mine. Any production
from the property will result in cash payments of $15 (U.S.) to $20 (U.S.) per ounce to Emergent, depending on the price
of gold.
In Quebec, the Casa South property is a large exploration property adjacent to and south of Hecla Mining
Corp.'s operating Casa Berardi mine with multiple exploration targets identified. The
Trecesson property, located about 50 kilometres north of the Val d'Or mining camp, has two major exploration
targets with multiple high-grade (greater than 10 grams per tonne) gold intercepts from historic and recent drilling. Emergent has a
1-per-cent net smelter return royalty in the Troilus North property, part of the feasibility-stage Troilus mine property being explored
by Troilus Gold. Emergent also has a 1-per-cent NSR royalty in the East-West property, owned by O3 Mining and part
of its feasibility-stage Marban Alliance property.
Note that the location of Emergent's properties adjacent to producing or past-producing mines does not
guarantee exploration success at Emergent's properties or that mineral resources or reserves will be
delineated.
