Pasofino Announces Update on Private Placement
Hummingbird Resources plc (AIM: HUM) is pleased to note the successful
completion of Pasofino Gold Limited's ("Pasofino") non-brokered private
placement, which raised gross proceeds of approximately US$2.4 million.
Pasofino, which Hummingbird holds a controlling interest in, has secured
subscription agreements for the full 4,806,767 units at a price of US$0.52 (or
C$0.70) per unit, for aggregate gross proceeds of US$2,438,217 (C$3,364,739).
The proceeds from this offering will further support Pasofino's strategic
objectives and its ongoing exploration and development activities at the Dugbe
Gold Project in Liberia.
The closing of the offering is subject to conditional approval by the TSX
Venture Exchange and is expected to take place shortly. All securities issued
under the offering will be subject to a four-month and one-day hold period
from the closing date, in accordance with applicable Canadian securities
regulations.
As previously disclosed, Hummingbird did not participate in the fundraise but
will retain its majority shareholding (reduced from 53% to c.50.4%) with the
full allotment secured, and therefore a controlling stake in this potential
world-class development project.
