Canadian Copper Inc. (CSE: CCI) announces that it has closed its non-brokered private placement consisting of 75,000,000 units at a price of $0.20 per unit for gross proceeds of $15,000,000 previously announced on October 2nd, 2025. The Company would like to welcome strategic investor Stephens Investment Management LLC, founded by Mr. Paul H. Stephens, a leading figure in U.S. west coast asset management and investment banking for over forty years.
Simon Quick, CEO of Canadian Copper stated: “This is a good milestone for Canadian Copper. Investor demand for this financing has been considerable, both from existing investors and new institutional shareholders. Subject to final conditions being satisfied, this financing will enable us to complete the acquisition of the existing Caribou mill and shift our immediate focus on executing the development strategy of Murray Brook and Caribou combined. It is clear from last week’s federal budget that national critical mineral supply is a key and increasing area of concern for Canada. Canadian Copper is well positioned as part of the near-term metal supply solution by combining the only permitted milling complex in New Brunswick with a large open pit base metal resource.”
Private Placement
The Company plans to use the financing proceeds to complete the previously announced Caribou Processing Complex transaction in addition to advancing certain key development activities addressed in the June 2025 Preliminary Economic Assessment, such as:
