Sprott 2014 Flow-Through Limited Partnership Completes First Closing

TORONTO, Feb. 14, 2014 /CNW/ - Sprott Asset Management LP ("Sprott") is pleased to announce that Sprott 2014 Flow-Through Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") has completed the first closing of its initial public offering of limited partnership units. The Partnership sold 302,107 units for gross proceeds of $7,552,675. The Partnership will have a second closing on or about March 27, 2014. The price per unit is $25.00.

Investment Objective of the Partnership
The Partnership's investment objective is to achieve capital appreciation and significant tax benefits for Limited Partners by investing in a diversified portfolio of flow-through shares and other securities, if any, of resource issuers.

Investment Strategy
The Partnership's investment strategy will be to invest in Flow-Through Shares and other securities, if any, of Resource Issuers whose principal business will be: (i) mining exploration, development, and/or production, (ii) oil and gas exploration, development, and/or production or (iii) certain energy production that may incur CRCE. To accomplish this strategy, a strong preference will be given to companies with existing production, which the Manager believes should mitigate downside risk relative to investing in earlier stage companies.

Attractive Tax-Reduction Benefits
Flow-through partnerships are one of the most effective tax reduction strategies available to Canadians. Sprott anticipates that investors participating in the Partnership will be eligible to receive a tax deduction in 2014 that is approximately 100% of the amount invested in the Partnership, based on certain assumptions as set forth in the prospectus.

Resource Expertise
The Partnership will be managed by Sprott, one of Canada's leading investors in small and mid-cap resource companies, with approximately $6.1 billion (as at September 30, 2013) dedicated to the sector. Over its long history of investing in the resource sector, Sprott has developed relationships with hundreds of companies. Its experienced team of portfolio managers is supported by a team of technical experts with extensive backgrounds in mining and geology.

Portfolio managers Jason Mayer and Eric Nuttall will co-manage the Partnership and will be supported by Sprott's broader team of experienced resource investment professionals.
