NJMC New Jersey Mining Company Closes Private Placement
New Jersey Mining Company ("NJMC" or the "Company") today announced the completion and closing of a private placement of its equity securities through a registered broker.
The Company sold $1.03-million of equity securities priced at $0.05 per unit. Each unit was comprised of one share of common stock and one-half common share purchase warrant. Each full warrant gives the holder the right, but not the obligation, to purchase one share of common stock at $0.15 for 18 months. All common shares issued in connection with the placement are restricted securities.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the placement for debt service, mill upgrades, working capital, and general corporate purposes. The new management team at NJMC is implementing a new business plan, prioritizing cash flow from its mill and pursuit of small-scale production opportunities.
Pennaluna & Company, a registered broker, was the sole placement agent for the offering and received a commission of 10-percent of the gross sale proceeds.
The Company's President and Chief Executive Officer purchased equity securities for their own accounts.
About New Jersey Mining Company
