All the securities issued in connection with this private placement have a hold period that expires on May 17, 2018. Proceeds will be used toward the Company’s working capital, loans payable and the planned work programs, including drilling in Sweden. The private placement is subject to final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange and was originally announced on December 18, 2018, and increased on January 4, 2018. Please refer to those news releases.
Jason Gigliotti President of Sienna Resources states, “We are very pleased to have such a strong interest in the placement as we had orders for significantly more than we closed. We thought it was prudent to only take $2.5 million to keep the share structure intact. We expect to be on the ground in Sweden this month with a full scale drill program planned for the first quarter. We are very optimistic about the prospects in Sweden and look forward to getting boots on the ground immediately. Cobalt prices are at 10 year highs and demand for ethically sourced cobalt has never been higher. We want to thank our placement subscribers for their continued strong support of Sienna.”
