Net proceeds will provide additional working capital to reinitiate operations in Colombia to advance the company’s Berlin Deposit and for general corporate purposes.

Mega Uranium Ltd. subscribed for 5,140,909 units under the offering which, combined with its prior position, brings its holding to 10.1 per cent of the common shares of U3O8. The company anticipates that the common shares will resume trading on the TSX Venture Exchange on or around August 5, 2022.

U3O8’s Chairman, Trumbull Fisher pointed to strong support from investors leading to a successful completion of the private placement.

“The proceeds, when taken together with the market value of the common shares of Consolidated Uranium Inc. (TSXV: CUR). and Labrador Uranium Inc. (TSXV: LUR). which the company currently holds, places U3O8 in its strongest working capital position in over five years providing a solid foundation for future growth. I would like to thank Mega for supporting our vision for the company, and I am thrilled to welcome them as our largest shareholder.”
