VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / April 3, 2025 / Snowline Gold Corp. (TSX-V:SGD)(OTC:SNWGF) (the "Company" or "Snowline") is pleased to announce that it has completed its previously announced "bought deal" private placement of 1,875,000 charity flow-through common shares of the Company (the "FT Shares") at a price of C$10.68 per FT Share (the "Offering Price") for aggregate gross proceeds of C$20,025,000 (the "Offering"). Each FT Share will qualify as a "flow-through share" (within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Tax Act")). Existing shareholder B2Gold Corp. (TSX:BTO)(NYSE American:BTG)(NSX:B2G) participated in the Offering to maintain its 9.9% interest in the Company.
"We are grateful to see tremendous support from existing shareholders in this financing and from new shareholders whom we are excited to have join," said Scott Berdahl, CEO & Director of Snowline. "This financing will allow us to put our heads down and focus on a big year in 2025-advancing Rogue Project's Valley deposit and continuing to bring forward the broader surrounding gold district-while giving us significant runway beyond. It also provides us flexibility to respond rapidly in the event of a greenfield discovery and to pursue other new opportunities that may arise."
The Company will use an amount equal to the gross proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the FT Shares, in the amount of C$20,025,000, to incur eligible "Canadian exploration expenses" that qualify as "flow-through mining expenditures" as both terms are defined in the Tax Act (the "Qualifying Expenditures") related to the Company's projects in the Yukon Territory, on or before December 31, 2026, and will renounce all the Qualifying Expenditures in favour of the subscribers of the FT Shares effective December 31, 2025.
The Offering was made through a syndicate of underwriters led by Cormark Securities Inc., and including BMO Capital Markets, Canaccord Genuity Corp., Agent is Capital Markets LP, National Bank Financial Inc., CIBC World Markets Inc., Scotia Capital Inc. and SCP Resource Finance LP (collectively, the "Underwriters"). The Underwriters received a cash commission equal to 5% of the gross proceeds of the Offering.
All securities issued in connection with the Offering are subject to a hold period of four months and one day from the closing of the Offering, in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws, expiring on August 4, 2025. Closing of the Offering is subject to the final acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange.
