- Vancouver, BC— May 7th, 2019Kincora Copper Ltd. (the “Company”, “Kincora”) (TSXV:KCC) announces that it proposes to undertake a private placement (the “Offering”) of units at $0.10 per unit (the “Units”) to raise up to $6,000,000. The Units will be comprised of one share (a “Share”) and one warrant (a “Warrant”), each Warrant entitling the holder to acquire a further share at a price of $0.25 for a term of 2 years.The Company is pleased to announce that following an independent technical review of Kincora’s targets and proposed work programs, our largest shareholder, LIM Asia Special Situations Master Fund Limited (“LASSMF”), will (subject to satisfactory documentation) subscribe for its pro rata share of the Offering (which is approximately 28% as at the date hereof). The Company is also pleased to have received strong indicative support from insiders, many existing and new shareholders.Chairman Cameron McRae commented, "I am delighted that we have attracted a strong cornerstone position from our largest shareholder and such interest from other experienced institutional resource sector specialist and high net worth investors. The support and detailed due diligence processes provide validation of our drill targets, strategy and team.This offering has been structured to align the immediate and medium term capital markets strategy to our asset portfolio of 5 standalone, large and drill ready porphyry targets. Success on any one of these targets would indicate a new globally significant copper discovery.”Sam Spring, President and CEO, noted, “The offering will provide a strong foundation for the drill bit to again drive Kincora’s valuation going forward, ramping up our exploration and expansion activities.Since consolidating the dominant position in the Southern Gobi copper belt in late 2016 and attracting a world-class technical team in 2017, Kincora has been undertaking the first modern systematic district scale exploration program in this highly prospective under-explored copper belt. Kincora’s technical team has an exceptional track record of discoveries, and this offering supports the first target testing drilling program under their watch.Our drilling strategy today is the culmination of almost 30 years of cumulative copper exploration experience in this belt by the senior members of our exploration team, 5 years of exploration work and model refinements by ourselves and previous owners (including Ivanhoe Mines and IBEX) that provide us with high conviction to now focus on the 5 large and independent targets within our Bronze Fox and East Tsagaan Suvarga projects.For their respective stages of exploration these targets are considered as good as you get within a global setting. The independent technical review commissioned by our largest shareholder supported a “discovery” having already been made at Bronze Fox within the underexplored target zone to the west of a key regional fault. This target area has been significantly upgraded by recent exploration activities. Confirmation of our geological models with positive results from the proposed drilling have the potential to, in time, elevate both projects to Tier 1 or world-class status.1We’re very pleased to have support from our investors, local community, hard working team and look forward to working closely with stakeholders going forward.”For further details on Kincora please refer to the following recently updated items:
