[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n\n\n\n\nVANCOUVER, Dec. 7, 2012 /CNW/ - Veris Gold Corp. (TSX: VG) (OTCQB: YNGFF) (Frankfurt Xetra Exchange:\n NG6A) (the \"Company\"). The Company is pleased to announce it has filed a\n final prospectus supplement in connection with its previously announced\n offering of units (\"Units\") of the Company (the \"Offering\"). The terms\n of the Offering have been amended such that the Offering will now\n consist of up to 7,200,000 Units at a price of C$2.10 per Unit\n representing aggregate gross proceeds of up to C$15,120,000.
