(TheNewswire)
July 25, 2019 – TheNewswire - Vancouver, BC — Teuton Resources Corp. (“Teuton” or “the Company”) (TSXV:TUO) (OTC:TEUTF) (Frankfurt:TUC) announces that it has completed a non-brokered private placement of 3,500,000 units at a price of $0.225 per unit for gross proceeds of $787,500. Each unit consists of one common share and one warrant exercisable into a common share at a price of $0.30 for a period of two years from closing.
Of the 3.5 million units, Eric Sprott’s private company, 2176423 Ontario Ltd., took down 2,500,000 units at a cost of $562,500. There are no finder’s fees associated with the transaction. The proceeds of the financing will be used to advance the Company’s many properties in the Golden Triangle Region of northwestern British Columbia with a portion of the funds directed to general working capital. The private placement was approved by the TSX-V on July 19, 2019.
Dino Cremonese, P. Eng, president of Teuton, commented as follows: “I welcome Mr. Sprott’s strategic investment in the Company. His interest in Teuton derives from his appreciation of the potential of the Treaty Creek property wherein the final hole of the 2018 drilling program returned an intersection grading 0.98 g/t gold over 564m. Tudor Gold, the operator of the Treaty Creek property and 60% owner, has already received $5.5 million from Mr Sprott. Teuton was the original owner of Treaty Creek, assembling the property 34 years ago; it now holds a 20% carried interest (carried until a production decision is made) as well as a 0.98% Net Smelter Royalty (no buyback) in the core of the property.
But Teuton also holds many other interests in the Golden Triangle, including over 30 properties, many of which are under option to third companies. In the Sulphurets Hydrothermal System, which encompasses the Treaty Creek property as well as the KSM property of Seabridge Gold and the Brucejack-Snowfield property of Pretium Resources, Teuton holds various royalty interests in 10 distinct areas (interested readers can refer to our website for details). Of the Golden Triangle region, Mr.Sprott is on record as saying: ‘You’re just elephant hunting in the Golden Triangle….it’s a wonderful area to make major discoveries’ – a fine endorsement from one of the world’s premier gold investors.”
Mr. Sprott also signed a voting agreement with Teuton promising to vote with management in the event of a hostile takeover bid, and to vote with management if it agrees to accept a takeover bid. Several of the other shareholders participating in the private placement have also signed similar agreements.
Eric Sprott, through 2176423 Ontario Ltd., a corporation which is beneficially owned by him, acquired 2,500,000 units pursuant to the private placement. Prior to the private placement, Mr. Sprott did not beneficially own or control any securities of the Company. As a result of the private placement, Mr. Sprott is the beneficial owner of 2,500,000 common shares and 2,500,000 warrants representing approximately 5.8% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company on a non-diluted basis and 11.0% on a partially diluted basis.
The units were acquired by Mr. Sprott, through 2176423 Ontario Ltd. for investment purposes. Mr. Sprott has a long-term view of the investment and may acquire additional securities of the Company including on the open market or through private acquisitions or sell securities of the Company including on the open market or through private dispositions in the future depending on market conditions, reformulation of plans and/or other relevant factors. A copy of 2176423 Ontario Ltd.’s early warning report will appear on the Company's profile on SEDAR and may also be obtained by calling (416) 362-7172 (200 Bay Street, Suite 2600, Royal Bank Plaza, South Tower, Toronto, Ontario M5J 2J1)
