(the “Company”) is pleased to announce it has received subscriptions for a non-brokered private placement of 3,112,145 units, at a price of $0.07 per unit, to raise proceeds of $217,850. Each unit consists of one common share and one-half of one share purchase warrant, each whole warrant entitling the holder to purchase one additional common share, at $0.10 per share, until October 21, 2018.

“We are working towards the PEA report on Phase Two of the Mirado Mine project, which is the evaluation of putting the existing open pit back into production on a long term tolling milling basis. It is important that we start this work prior to the snow season in Kirkland Lake, and it was necessary to complete this financing in order to initiate this work,” said Stephen Stewart Orefinders CEO.
