Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSX-V: RDS, OTCQB:
RMRDF) (“
Radisson” or the
“
Company”) is pleased to announce that, due to
continuing strong demand, its previously announced and
oversubscribed private placement (the “
Offering”)
has been upsized for aggregate gross proceeds of C$7,000,000. The
proceeds of the Offering will be used to advance the exploration
and development of the Company’s O'Brien Gold Project
(“
O’Brien” or the “
Project”)
located in the Abitibi region of Québec.
Matt Manson, President and CEO, commented: “We
are very grateful for the strong support shown by our existing
shareholders and new institutional shareholders for this
non-brokered private placement, which was well over-subscribed and
upsized twice. During September, we reported very encouraging
high-grade drill results from depth at the O’Brien Gold Project,
with implications for future project growth below the level of the
current Mineral Resource. We also entered into a Memorandum of
Understanding with IAMGOLD Corporation to assess the design
criteria for processing mined material from O’Brien at the nearby
Doyon gold mill. The proceeds from this financing will allow for a
vigorous exploration program in 2025, as well as important programs
of metallurgical, engineering, and economic evaluation, all with a
view to future Project development. Currently, two drill rigs are
active at the Project, and ongoing drill results will be reported
as they become available.”
The Offering will include the sale of the
following securities (collectively, the
“Securities”):
- Units of the Company (the
“Units”) consisting of one Class A common share
(“Common Share”) and one-half of one Common Share
purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”)
at a price of C$0.27 per Unit; each Warrant will be exercisable for
a period of 24 months following the closing date at a price of
C$0.37 per underlying Class A common share.
- Class A shares of
the Company (the “QFT Shares”) which shall each
qualify as a "flow-through share" as defined in subsection 66(15)
of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (“ITA”) and section
359.1 of the Taxation Act (Québec) (the “Québec Tax
Act”), at a price of C$0.36 per QFT Share.
- Units of the Company (the
“Charity FT Units”) consisting of one Charity
flow-through share and (the “CFT Shares”) one-half
of one Warrant to be sold on a charitable flow-through basis at a
price of C$0.47 per Charity FT Unit; each Warrant will be
exercisable for a period of 24 months following the closing date at
a price of C$0.37 per underlying Class A common share.
- Class A shares of
the Company (the “NFT Shares”) which shall each
qualify as a "flow-through share" as defined in subsection 66(15)
of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (“ITA”), at a price
of C$0.32 per NFT Share.
The gross proceeds received by the Corporation
from the sale of the QFT Shares, CFT Shares and NFT Shares,
together the (“FT Shares”) will be used to incur
Canadian Exploration Expenses (“CEE”) that are
“flow-through mining expenditures” (as such terms are defined in
the Income Tax Act (Canada)) on the O’Brien gold project in the
Province of Québec, which will be renounced to the subscribers with
an effective date no later than December 31, 2024, in the aggregate
amount of not less than the total amount of the gross proceeds
raised from the issue of FT Shares. For purchasers of QFT Shares
and CFT Shares resident in the Province of Québec, 10% of the
amount of CEE will be eligible for inclusion in the deductible
“exploration base relating to certain Québec exploration expenses”
and 10% of the amount of the expenses will be eligible for
inclusion in the deductible “exploration base relating to certain
Québec surface mining exploration expenses” (as such terms are
defined in the Taxation Act (Québec), respectively) giving rise to
an additional 20% deduction for Québec tax purposes.

proceeds raised under the Offering in the amount of up to 6% cash
and 6% finders’ warrants.
