March 27, 2024 / TheNewswire: Vancouver, B.C.: VR Resources Ltd. (TSX.V: VRR; FSE: 5VR; OTCQB: VRRCF), (the “Company, or “VR”), is pleased to announce it has Closed the previously announced, $900,000 financing (the “Financing”), and plans are now underway to mobilize the drill program at its New Boston porphyry copper-moly system in Nevada.

Each Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one additional Common Share at an exercise price of $0.20 per Common Share until September 27, 2025.

The Company paid cash fees totaling $30,999 in connection with certain placements into the Financing.

The securities that were issued under the Financing are subject to a statutory four month and one day hold period expiring on July 28, 2024.

 

An Insider of the Company participated in the Financing for an aggregate amount of 333,333 units. Such participation is considered a related party transaction within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101").  In completing such transaction, VR relied on the applicable exemptions from the valuation requirement and minority security holder approval requirements available under Sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(a) of MI 61-101, respectively, on the basis that the participation in the Financing by the Insider did not exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.

 

Use of Proceeds Going Forward

 

VR will use the net proceeds of the Financing for its mineral exploration business, and more specifically towards the pending drill program planned for the polymetallic copper-moly-silver porphyry-skarn system on its New Boston property located in west-central Nevada.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
