EnviroGold Global Closes Final Tranche of Upsized Private Placement

GlobeNewswire October 8, 2024

TORONTO, Oct. 08, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — EnviroGold Global Limited (CSE: NVRO | OTCQB: ESGLF | FSE: YGK) (“EnviroGold,” or the “Company”), a technology company enabling the global mining industry to monetize valuable metals contained in mine waste and tailings, reduce environmental liabilities and improve social and environmental outcomes, is pleased to announce that it has closed the fourth and final tranche of its previously announced non-brokered private placement (the “Financing”) and issued 17,310,900 units (the “Units”) at a price of $0.05 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $865,545. Each Unit consists of one common share (each, a “Common Share”) and one full warrant (each, a “Warrant”) which is exercisable to acquire one additional Common Share at a price of $0.08 until April 30, 2026.  

EnviroGold CEO David Cam commented, “We are excited to be progressing through the next stage of the development of the NVRO Process. This technology enables EnviroGold to continue its mission to enhance sustainable mining practices, reducing acid generating mine waste and recovering valuable metals.

The NVRO Process is a leach process that breaks down the acidic generating sulphides in the waste stream and recovers metal that was previously trapped. The benefits to mining companies is that they can generate metal credits and reduce their long term liabilities and risks associated with Tailings Storage Facilities.

This new capital will also allow the Company to fully commission its demonstration plant with two prospective clients to commence demonstration plant testing on their tailings and waste materials in October 2024 with results expected late 2024.”

In total, Envirogold has raised gross proceeds of $2,244,279 under the Financing, after twice increasing the size of the Financing to a maximum amount of $2,250,000 due to continuing investor interest.

Envirogold intends to use the proceeds from the Financing to accelerate the establishment of the NVRO Clean Leach Process demonstration facility, to advance revenue generating customer relationships, for general operating and administrative expenses.

As part of the Financing, the Company settled $20,545 of debt by issuing 410,900 Units to a consultant.

All securities issued in connection with the Financing will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months from the date of issuance pursuant to applicable securities laws of Canada.   No finder’s fees were paid on this closing.

A director of the Company participated in this fourth tranche of the Financing in the amount of $25,000. The participation by such insider is considered a “related-party transaction” within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company has relied on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 contained in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in respect of related party participation in the Financing as neither the fair market value (as determined under MI 61-101) of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value of the consideration for, the transaction, insofar as it involved related parties, exceeded 25% of the Company’s market capitalization (as determined under MI 61-101).

The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Financing as the details of the participation therein by a related party of the Company were not settled until shortly prior to closing of the Financing and the Company wished to close on an expedited basis for sound business reasons.
