The Charity FT Units were sold through a syndicate of underwriters led by Red Cloud Securities Inc. and included Haywood Securities Inc. and PI Financial Corporation.
Stephen Keith, CEO, commented, “We would like to thank our existing and new shareholders for the overwhelming support in completing an over-subscribed and strongly institutionally backed private placement. This financing shows great confidence in the work we have ahead, and we look forward to our planned 2022 and 2023 exploration seasons.”
