Vangold Resources Ltd. ("Vangold" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:VAN) is pleased
to announce a non-brokered private placement of up to 17,142,857 units at a
price of $0.35 per unit for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $6,000,000.
Each unit will consist of one common share and one-half of a non-transferable
warrant, with a whole warrant entitling the holder to purchase one common share
at a price of $0.50 for a period of 18 months following the closing date. The
warrants will be subject to accelerated expiry if, at any time after four months
and a day after closing, Vangold's common shares close at or above $0.70 for 10
consecutive trading days on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange").
The securities issued pursuant to the private placement will be subject to a
four month hold period from the closing date. The Company may pay finder's fees
in connection with the private placement, subject to compliance with the
policies of the Exchange. Completion of the private placement and the payment of
any finder's fees remain subject to the receipt of all necessary regulatory
approvals, including the approval of the Exchange.
The proceeds of the private placement will be used for the continued exploration
and development of the Company's Papua New Guinea gold projects, primarily Mt
Penck, and for general working capital purposes. Mt Penck is Vangold's flagship
gold property in Papua New Guinea ("PNG"). PNG is part of the Pacific Rim of
Fire and is host to some of the world's largest copper and gold deposits,
including Ok Tedi, Frieda River, Porgera and Lihir. The Mt Penck property (102.6
square kilometers) is a volcano-hosted high-sulfidation epithermal gold system.
Five prospects have been identified to date and cover an area 1km by 1.1km. Gold
mineralization occurs from surface to depths of 130m. 2009 drill program
