Cadillac Mining Corporation Announces Non-Brokered Private Placement
Vancouver, British Columbia CANADA, April 11, 2012 /FSC/ - Cadillac Mining Corporation (CQX - TSX Venture), announces that it has negotiated, subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange, a non-brokered private placement (the Placement) consisting of a maximum of 5,000,000 Units of the Company at a price of $0.20 per Unit, for gross proceeds of $1,000,000. Each Unit comprises one common share and one-half warrant, each whole warrant exercisable at $0.40 for 18 months from closing of the Placement, subject to the accelerator provision described below.
A finder's fee will be paid on a portion of the placement as to 8% in cash or Units, and 8% in brokers' warrants exercisable at $0.40 for 18 months from closing of the Placement. If at any time after closing of the Placement, the trade-weighted price of Cadillac's shares on the TSX Venture Exchange is equal to or greater than $0.55 for fifteen consecutive trading days, the warrants must be exercised within the ensuing 30 days. All securities issued pursuant to the Placement will be subject to a four-month hold period.
The net proceeds of the Placement will be utilized primarily in the Company's forthcoming 5000-meter diamond drilling program on its 100%-owned Goldstrike Project in southwestern Utah, as discussed in the Company's release of March 1, 2012. Initial drilling will focus on the Hamburg Extension where orientation RC drilling performed in December 2011 produced excellent results. Core drilling is expected to better define the relationship between mineralization, structural controls, and stratigraphic constraints, which will serve in developing an exploration model for subsequent larger and more aggressive drilling programs.
As reported previously, permits from the Division of Oil, Gas & Mining (DOGM) of the Utah Department of Natural Resources, and the US Department of the Interior BLM are in place for a further nineteen angle drill holes planned primarily for the Hamburg Extension target at Goldstrike. The DOGM is currently processing Cadillac's application for inclusion of an additional thirteen drill holes under the existing permit. Drilling is expected to commence this month.
