Told YaShare dilution....dilution....and more dilution as IAU will be spending a lot of money exploring multiple projects simultaneously. How many more equity raises before they even complete a feasibility study on any of their new projects, much less get full financing for mining them if any are found to be able to be mined profitably...?
Excerpt from today's Press Release (after market close):
i-80 GOLD CORP. is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with CIBC Capital Markets as lead underwriter and sole bookrunner on behalf of a syndicate of underwriters pursuant to which the Underwriters have agreed to purchase on a bought deal private placement basis, 11,852,000 common shares of the Company at a price of $2.70 per Offered Share for gross proceeds of $32.0 million.
The Company has granted the Underwriters an option, on the same terms and conditions as the Offering, exercisable until the second business day prior to the closing date of the Offering, to purchase up to an additional 15% of the Offering (“Underwriters’ Option”). If the Underwriters’ Option is exercised in full, the aggregate gross proceeds to i-80 of the Offering would be $36.8 million.
