The company will sell 8,800,000 common shares at $0.125 per share.

Subscribers include Nascent Exploration, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Australia’s Fortescue Metals Group, and Lind Global Fund II, an institutional investment fund managed by The Lind Partners.

“We are very pleased to have both Fortescue and Lind supporting Candente Copper and the Cañariaco Project to unlock value for shareholders. Upon completion of the private placement, we will be well-financed to complete an updated preliminary economic assessment, which will better define opportunities with potential to lower initial capital expenditures, operational costs and enhance our environmental, social and governance practices as recently identified by Ausenco in their Desk Top Study. The financing will also allow us to advance our permitting for drilling and our community work.”
