Nation Gold Corp. Completes Initial Public Offering and CSE Listing
Mr. Mark Bailey, CEO and Director of Nation, commented, "We are excited to have completed our public listing of Nation and I would like to welcome the new shareholders of Nation. I would like to thank the teams at Maxis Law Corporation, our legal counsel, and Canaccord Genuity, our exclusive agent on the Offering, for their support in completing the offering. We look forward to a busy year ahead in 2022."
Canaccord Genuity Corp. (the "Agent") acted as the Company's exclusive agent in respect of the Offering. As consideration for the services provided by the Agent to the Company, the Agent received a cash commission of $100,000, representing 8% of the gross proceeds of the Offering, in addition to a corporate finance fee of $30,000. The Company further issued to the Agent and its selling group 400,000 non-transferable common share purchase warrants (each, an "Agent's Warrant"). Each Agent's Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Share at a price of $0.25 per Agent's Warrant Share until December 29, 2023.
The net proceeds of the Offering will primarily be used to fund the exploration on the Company's Cattle Creek Property and for general corporate purposes. The Company's Cattle Creek Property consists of four mining claims covering approximately 539.16 hectares of land located in the southern Monashee Pass area near Vernon, British Columbia, on which the Company has acquired a 100% right, title and interest.
Following completion of the Offering, the Company currently has 16,329,920 Shares outstanding, 1,750,000 of which are subject to standard National Policy 46-201 escrow provisions. The Company has received approval to list the Shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "Exchange") and the Shares were listed for trading on the Exchange on December 29, 2021 and halted pending completion of the Offering. The Company expects the Shares to resume trading on the Exchange on or about January 4, 2022 under the stock symbol "NATN".
The directors and officers of Nation are the following:
- Mark Bailey, Director and Chief Executive Officer;
- Gregg Sedun, Director;
- Carson Sedun, Director; and
- Darren Tindale, Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Secretary.
