Net proceeds to fund 2025exploration program, including maiden drill program at the highly prospective Bravo target at the Escacena Project, Southern Spain
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA – (October 18,2024) – Pan Global Resources Inc. (“Pan Global” or the "Company") (TSX-V: PGZ; OTCQX: PGZFF; FRA: 2EU) announces today that due to strong institutional demand, particularly from European resource funds, the previously announced non-brokered private placement financing has been increased from $3 million to $7 million.
"In addition to a lead order from a strategic partner in Spain, Pan Global has received a further commitment from a prominent European resource fund for a significant portion of the financing. The exceptional support from key existing and new investors places us in a stronger position to advance the Company’s exploration in Spain and in particular at the highly prospective Bravo target," said Tim Moody, Pan Global President and CEO. “Pan Global’s mineral rights in southern Spain are ideally located in a top-tier copper mining region, where the number of active mines and development projects continue to grow.”
The Company announced on October 15, 2024, that it had arranged a non-brokered private placement financing of up to 25,000,000 units (the “Units”) of securities at a price of $0.12 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $3 million (the “Offering”). Following the upsizing, the Company will now be issuing up to 58,333,333 Units for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $7 million with the term of the common share purchase warrants extended from 12 months to 18 months. Each Unit will be comprised of one (1) common share and one-half of one (1/2) non-transferable common share purchase warrant, with each whole warrant entitling the holder to purchase one additional common share at a price of $0.16 for a period of 18 months from closing of the Offering. All dollar ($) amounts in Canadian dollars.
Completion of the Placement is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. The securities issued pursuant to this private placement 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. Finders’ fees may be payable on a portion of the Offering.
