Net proceeds from the Offering will be used to advance exploration activities at the Perseverance Project in Arizona, USA, where recent drilling has indicated proximity to a Laramide porphyry copper system (refer to Cordoba's news release dated January 21, 2019), and will include continuation of drilling activities and preparation and permitting for geophysical surveys, including HPX's Typhoon™ technology. Remaining funds will be used for general corporate purposes.
Closing of the Offering is expected to be completed in tranches and is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval. The initial closing will close as soon as practicable and the final tranche is expected to close before March 1, 2019. The securities issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a four-month hold period. The Company may pay eligible finders assisting in the Offering a fee in cash and/or securities equal to 7% of the gross proceeds raised by such finders.
