MONTREAL, March 28, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Niobay Metals Inc. (“Niobay” or the “Company”) (TSX-V:NBY) is pleased to report that it has closed its previously announced non-brokered private placement with Osisko Gold Royalties Ltd (“Osisko”) (TSX:OR) (NYSE:OR) raising $2,340,000 (the “Financing”).
Osisko purchased 9.0 million common shares of the Company (the “Shares”) at a price of $0.26 per share and now owns approximately 19.7% of Niobay’s issued and outstanding Shares. So long as Osisko holds not less than 10% of the then issued and outstanding Shares of Niobay, Osisko will have the right to (i) nominate one director to Niobay’s board of directors and (ii) participate in all future equity financings to maintain its relative equity ownership in Niobay.
In addition, Osisko has been granted an option to purchase a 1.0% royalty on all metals to be produced at the James Bay niobium project. The option is exercisable by paying $2,000,000 to Niobay at any time within 90 days following the delivery by Niobay to Osisko of a bankable feasibility study on the project.
The proceeds of the Financing will be used primarily to fund development costs of Niobay’s niobium project and for general corporate purposes. The Shares issued to Osisko are subject to a hold period expiring on July 28, 2018. The Financing was made under the prospectus exemptions under applicable securities legislation and is subject to the final acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange. Following completion of the Financing, Niobay has 45,690,111 Shares issued and outstanding.
