(TSX: WRX) ("Western" or the "Company") announces that it has closed the rights offering ("Rights Offering") announced on March 6, 2019. A total of 93,437,110 common shares of the Company ("Shares") will be issued to holders of Rights ("Rightholders") at a subscription price of C$0.12 per Share which represents gross proceeds of C$11,212,453.20.
