Tempus Raises A$1.9M to Extend Drilling

PERTH, AUSTRALIA / ACCESSWIRE / April 23, 2021 / Tempus Resources Ltd ("Tempus" or the "Company") (ASX:TMR)(TSXV:TMRR) is pleased to announce that it has received firm commitments to complete a non-brokered private placement raising gross proceeds of approximately A$1.9 million through the issue of 12,465,425 ordinary shares in the Company at an average price equivalent to A$0.153 per share (the "Placement"). The Placement was strongly supported by North American and Australian institutional and sophisticated investors.

Commenting on the Placement, President and Chief Executive Officer, Jason Bahnsen, said: "We plan to resume drilling at our high-grade Canadian Elizabeth Gold Project within the coming 6-8 weeks and the Placement will enable us to extend works there. Given the great results from last year, it's very exciting to be getting back on the ground at Elizabeth with an enlarged drilling program."

The Company began drilling at Elizabeth in November 2020 and completed 11 holes for 2,006 metres before suspending operations for the season in late-December. Assays returned bonanza grade gold intercepts including:

  • Drill-hole EZ-20-06: 5.0m at 61.3g/t gold from 116.5m, including 1.5m at 186.0g/t gold from 118.0m; and
  • Drill-hole EZ-20-10: 3.2m at 28.1g/t gold from 184.0m, including 0.5m at 178.0g/t gold from 184.5m

The 2021 exploration program at Elizabeth is fully permitted and on schedule to commence by the end of Q2 2021. Tempus currently plans 7,500 metres of drilling to expand the known high-grade gold mineralisation by testing the down plunge and along strike extensions of the currently delineated vein zones.

The Placement will be completed utilising the Company's available capacity under Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A. It includes two tranches: Tranche 1, which consists of 6,400,000 shares to be issued as "Canadian flow-through shares" at C$0.155 per share; and Tranche 2, which consists of 6,065,425 shares at a price of A$0.145 per share.

The shares issued as "Canadian flow-through shares" qualify as such under the Income Tax Act (Canada), which provides tax credits for investors in qualifying mining and exploration activities. The proceeds of these will be exclusively used to incur eligible Canadian exploration expenses that are "flow-through mining expenditures" (as such terms are defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada)), related to exploration of the Company's Blackdome-Elizabeth Gold Project in British Columbia, Canada. The Tranche 1 shares are subject to TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") approval and will be subject to a standard Canadian 4 month plus 1 day hold period. Proceeds of Tranche 2 will be available for expenditure on the Company's Ecuador projects and for general corporate purposes. Shares issued under Tranche 2 will not carry any holding restrictions.

Aesir Corporate Pty Ltd is the Company's Corporate Adviser. The Placement is non-brokered and the Company has agreed to pay: A$114,608 in advisory / finders fees; plus 2,500,000 unlisted compensation options, with an exercise price of A$0.20 per share for a period of 3 years from the date of issue.

This announcement has been authorised by the Board of Directors of Tempus Resources Ltd.
