TORONTO, Oct. 31, 2017 /CNW/ - Anaconda Mining Inc. ("Anaconda" or the "Company") (TSX: ANX) is pleased to announce that it has completed a non-brokered private placement consisting of 25,812,500 common shares, which qualify as "flow-through shares" within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada), ("FT Shares") at a price of $0.08 per FT Share and 14,392,268 units (the "Units") at a price of $0.065 per Unit, for aggregate gross proceeds of $3,000,498 (the "Offering"). Each Unit consists of one common share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole common share purchase warrant, a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one common share of the Company (a "Warrant Share") at a price of $0.105 until October 31, 2020. The Warrants contain an acceleration clause whereby if the common shares of Anaconda trade at a volume weighted average price of $0.21 or more for 20 consecutive trading days, Anaconda will have the right to accelerate the exercise period to a period ending at least 30 days from the date that notice of such acceleration is provided to the holders of the Warrants.

"We are pleased to have been able to attract this amount of investment dollars from supportive, existing shareholders and new institutional and retail investors. It is a testament to Anaconda's operating team and the strong growth potential of the Company's Mineral Resources and production profile. The capital will enable us to significantly advance the Goldboro Project in the near term, in addition to demonstrating the ongoing production potential at the Point Rousse Project."

~ Dustin Angelo, President and CEO

In connection with the Offering, the Company paid a cash finder's fee and issued 1,115,190 non-transferable finder warrants. Each finder warrant is exercisable for one common share of the Company at a price of $0.105 until October 31, 2020, subject to the same acceleration as provided for in the Warrants. M Partners Inc. and Red Cloud Klondike Strike Inc. acted as finders in connection with the Offering.

It is expected that the gross proceeds from the FT Share portion of the Offering will be primarily used for exploration activities at Anaconda's Goldboro Project in Nova Scotia and the Argyle discovery at the Point Rousse Project in Newfoundland, and the net proceeds from the Unit portion of the Offering will be used for general corporate purposes.

All of the securities sold pursuant to the Offering are subject to a hold period which will expire on March 1, 2018 in accordance with the rules and policies of the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") and applicable Canadian securities laws. The Offering remains subject to the final approval of the TSX.

The securities offered (and any underlying securities, as applicable) have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act") or any U.S. state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, United States persons absent registration or any applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable U.S. state securities laws. This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities in the United States, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
