VANCOUVER, B.C. September 15, 2022– Highbank Resources Ltd. (the “Company”) (TSX.V – “HBK”) announces that it is arranging a flow-through private placement financing (the “Financing”) of up to $80,000 through the issuance of 1,140,000 Units (the “Units”) at $0.07. Each Unit will consist of one flow-through common share of the Company and one-half transferable NFT warrant exercisable for two years at $0.10 .
The Company intends to pay finder fees of up to 8% cash and 8% warrants, subject to compliance with applicable securities legislation and TSX.V policies.
The securities to be issued will be subject to a four-month and one day hold period from closing. The terms of the Financing are subject to customary closing conditions including, but not limited to, receipt of applicable regulatory approvals, including final approval of the TSX.V.
The Company proposes to use the proceeds of the Financing for exploration on its Terra Nova, Newfoundland property option.
Terra Nova Property:
The Terra Nova property consists of 71 claims (6 licences) located 30 km northwest of Port Blandford in central Newfoundland. Access is from the town of Terra Nova via 12 km of transmission line road built from the Lower Churchill Falls power development project. HBK has an option to earn an 80% ownership in the property.
An alteration area of 12 square kilometers has been identified, which to date has been subjected to limited exploration. The project has the potential to host mesothermal gold-polymetallic deposits. The property lies within the Gander Zone, which is an area of significant exploration interest as a result of Newfound Gold Corp.’s Queensway gold project.
The property currently comprises five mineralized showings (i) the Copper Vein; (ii) Nancy’s Gold Vein; (iii) New Alteration Zone; (iv) the Silver Pit; and (v) Galena Vein showing.
In March 2022 CMC Metals Ltd., completed a ground magnetometer survey (approx. 35-line km) with the services of McKeown Exploration Ltd., of St. John’s, Newfoundland. These surveys have helped to provide an indication of possible areas of mineralization associated with large-and local-scale structures (faults, dykes, shear zones, etc.), variations in the near surface geology as well as depth, and to identify demagnetized zones which are an indicator of areas that have been subjected to hydrothermal activity.
The Company is planning road extensions into some of the mineralized areas in order to trench and complete a more extensive sampling program on these showings.
Qualified Person:
Kevin Brewer, a registered professional geoscientist, President/CEO of CMC Metals Ltd., and a Qualified Person (as defined by National Instrument 43-101) has given his approval of the technical information reported herein.
Stock Options:
The Company also announces that it has granted 1,225,000 incentive stock options to directors & consultants in accordance with the Company's current stock option plan. Each option is exercisable into one common share of the Company at a price of $0.07 per share for a period of three years from the date of grant.
