Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - October 15, 2024) - New Break Resources Ltd. (CSE: NBRK) ("New Break" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it intends to undertake a non-brokered private placement offering of up to 8,000,000 units ("Units") at $0.075 per Unit for gross proceeds of up to $600,000 (the "Offering").
Each Unit consists of one common share ("Common Share") of the Company and one common share purchase warrant ("Warrant"), with each Warrant entitling the holder thereof, to purchase one additional Common Share of the Company at a price of $0.12 for a period of twenty-four (24) months from the date of closing.
The Warrants are subject to an acceleration clause, whereby if the closing price of the common shares of the Company on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the "CSE") is equal to $0.25 or higher for five non-consecutive trading days, over a 365-day period, the Company may accelerate the expiry of the Warrants to the date that is 20 business days from the date of the issuance of a news release by the Company announcing the exercise of the acceleration right.
All securities issued under the Offering are subject to a four-month and one day statutory hold period. The net proceeds from the sale of the Units will be used to fund certain planned exploration activities at the Company's Moray gold project and for general working capital purposes.
More specifically, it is expected that the proceeds of the Offering will be used to fund a planned induced polarization ("IP") survey at the Company's Moray property, located approximately 49 km south of Timmins, Ontario and 32 km northwest of the Young-Davidson gold mine, operated by Alamos Gold Inc. The IP survey will be the first of its kind to cover the entire interpreted extent of the gold-mineralized Fiset syenite intrusive and will represent the last major exploration program prior to New Break undertaking a drilling program expected to focus exclusively on the syenite intrusive.
Gold mineralization at the Young-Davidson gold mine is contained principally with a syenite intrusive which hosted mineral reserves as at December 31, 2023, of 3.261 million ounces of gold, contained in 43.911 million tonnes at an average grade of 2.31 g/t Au (source: Alamos Gold mineral reserve table as at December 31, 2023). Disclaimer: The mineralization style and setting associated with the Young-Davidson gold mine is not necessarily indicative of the mineralization observed on the Moray property. The syenite target at Moray is three times the size by area, of the syenite intrusive at Young-Davidson. Beginning in 1964, multiple historical drilling programs have been conducted on the Moray property by various operators, including Noranda, Rio Tinto and Newmont. However, over the past 60 years not a single drilling program targeted the syenite intrusive as its primary focus.
Finder's fees may be payable to qualified individuals (the "Finder") pursuant to which the Finder may receive a finder fee equal to up to 6% of the gross proceeds received by the Company from purchasers under the Offering who were introduced to the Company by such Finder and finder warrants ("Finder Warrants") entitling the Finder to purchase that number of common shares of the Company equal to up to 6% of the aggregate number of Units sold by such Finder under the Offering.
The closing of the Offering is anticipated to take place on or about October 31, 2024, or such other date as the Company may determine (the "Closing"). The Closing is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals including the approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange.

The securities offered have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or applicable exemption from the registration requirements.
