(TSX-V: PGC) (OTCQB: NIOVF) (FRANKFURT: 4Y7 OR WKN: A0M2QX) (“Plato” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that further to its news releases dated May 25, 2022 and July 5, 2022, it has completed a non-brokered private placement for aggregate gross proceeds of $415,000 (the “Offering”). The Offering consisted of (i) 5,200,000 flow-through shares (“FT Shares”) at a price of $0.05 per FT Share for gross proceeds of up to $260,000; and (ii) 3,100,000 hard dollar units (“HD Units”) at a price of $0.05 per HD Unit for gross proceeds of up to $155,000.
