VANCOUVER, CANADA– December 28th, 2018: Sitka Gold Corp. (CSE: SIG) (the “Company” or “Sitka”) announces that, further to its December 21st, 2018 news release, it completed a non-brokered private placement (the “Private Placement”) of 2,200,000 flow- through units at a price of $0.125 per unit (the “FT Units”) for total proceeds of $275,000. The Private Placement was oversubscribed from the initial offering by $25,000 and will result in the Company issuing an additional 200,000 common shares of the Company.
Each FT Unit will consist of one flow-through common share (the “FT Shares”) and one-half of one non flow-through common share purchase warrant (the “Warrants”). Each whole Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional common share of the Company at an exercise price of $0.17 per common share for a period of 24 months from the date of closing of the Private Placement.
The proceeds raised from the FT Units will be spent on exploration that will qualify as Canadian exploration expenses (CEE) and flow-through mining expenditures for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada).
In connection with the Private Placement, the Company has paid finders’ fees comprising $6,000 cash and a total of 96,000 warrants (the “Finders’ Warrants”) in accordance with the rules and policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange. The Finders Warrants have the same exercise terms and features as the Warrants.
