SANKAMAP ANNOUNCES $5.0M PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Sankamap Metals Inc. proposes to complete a non-brokered private placement financing of up to 14,285,715 units at a price of 35 cents per unit for gross proceeds of up to $5-million. Each unit will consist of one common share and one-half of a common share purchase warrant. Each warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional common share of Sankamap at an exercise price of 55 cents for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance. The gross proceeds from the sale of the units will be used to advance exploration and development of Sankamap's projects, including the acquisition of a drilling rig to be installed at the Fauro property, which will enable the simultaneous drilling of both the Kuma and Fauro properties, as well as for general working capital purposes.
Sankamap may pay finders' fees to arm's-length finders in connection with this placement, which are expected to be up to 6.0 per cent of the gross proceeds raised by such finders, in cash and share purchase warrants to acquire common shares of Sankamap of up to 6.0 per cent of the number of units sold to a purchaser or purchasers introduced by the finders. Each finder's warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one common share of Sankamap at an exercise price of 35 cents for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance.
The offering is subject to the approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange and any finders' fees payable will be issued in accordance with the policies of the CSE and applicable securities laws. All securities issued will be subject to a four-month and one day hold period.
About Sankamap Metals Inc.
Sankamap Metals is a Canadian mineral exploration company dedicated to the discovery and development of high-grade copper and gold deposits through its flagship Oceania project, located in the South Pacific. The company's fully permitted assets are strategically positioned in the Solomon Islands, along a prolific geological trend that hosts major copper-gold deposits, including Newmont's Lihir mine, with a resource of 71.9 million ounces of gold (310 million tonnes containing 23 million ounces gold at 2.3 grams per tonne (g/t) proved plus probable, 520 million tonnes containing 39 million ounces gold Au at 2.3 g/t indicated, 81 million tonnes containing five million ounces gold at 1.9 g/t measured, 61 million tonnes containing 4.9 million ounces gold at 2.3 g/t inferred).
Exploration is actively advancing at both the Kuma and Fauro properties, part of Sankamap's Oceania project in the Solomon Islands. Historical work has already highlighted the mineral potential of both sites, which lie along a highly prospective copper and gold-bearing trend, suggesting the possibility of further, yet-to-be-discovered deposits.
At Kuma, the property is believed to host an underexplored and largely untested porphyry copper-gold (Cu-Au) system. Historical rock chip sampling has returned consistently elevated gold values above 0.5 g/t Au, including a standout sample assaying 11.7 per cent copper and 13.5 g/t gold, underscoring the area's significant potential.
At Fauro, particularly at the Meriguna target, historical trenching has returned highly encouraging results, including 8.0 metres at 27.95 g/t gold and 14.0 metres at 8.94 g/t gold. Complementing these results are exceptional grab sample assays, including historical values of up to 173 g/t gold, along with recent sampling by Sankamap at the Kiovakase target, which returned numerous high-grade copper values, reaching up to 4.09 per cent copper. In addition, limited historical shallow drilling intersected 35.0 meters at 2.08 g/t gold, further underscoring the property's strong mineral potential and the merit for continued exploration. With a commitment to systematic exploration and a team of experienced professionals, Sankamap aims to unlock the untapped potential of underexplored regions and create substantial value for its shareholders.
