/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES/
ROUYN-NORANDA, QC, June 3, 2022 /CNW Telbec/ - Fokus Mining Corporation ("Fokus" or the "Company") (TSXV: FKM) (OTCQB: FKMCF) (FSE: F7E1) announces that it will be increasing the size of its non-brokered private placement (the "Private Placement") previously announced on May 11, 2022 (the "May Press Release") to provide for the sale of up to 6,000,000 additional "flow-through" units (the "FT Units") at a price of $0.10 per FT Unit for gross proceeds to Fokus of $600,000. The other terms of the Private Placement are unchanged and will remain the same as to the ones previously announced in the May Press Release.
In its May Press Release, the Company announced a first closing of a non-brokered private placement of 2,252,500 Units, at a price of $0.08 per Unit, for aggregate gross proceeds to Fokus of $180,200, and 2,354,500 FT Units for aggregate gross proceeds of $235,450 (the "First Tranche"). Each Unit is comprised of one common share and one common share purchase warrant (the "Unit Warrants"), and each FT Unit is comprised of one common share and one-half of a common share purchase warrant (together with the Unit Warrants, the "Warrants"). Each Warrant entitles its holder to acquire one additional common share of Fokus at a price of $0.12 for a period of two years from the closing date.
As a result of the increase in the size of the Private Placement, now a maximum of 28,997,500 Units and 7,645,500 FT Units can be issued under the Private Placement, excluding the Units and FT Units issued in the First Tranche, for total maximum gross proceeds of $3,084,350. Fokus intends to use the proceeds from the FT Units for exploration of its Galloway property located in the Province of Québec and the proceeds from the Units for working capital purposes. The closing of the second and final tranche of the Private is expected to occur before July 6, 2022.
