Western Uranium & Vanadium Corp. Closes Oversubscribed Second Tranche of Private Placement for $4,000,000

Toronto, Ontario and Nucla, Colorado , Jan. 20, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Western Uranium & Vanadium Corp. (CSE: WUC) (OTCQX: WSTRF) (“Western” or the ”Company”) is pleased to announce the second closing of its non-brokered private placement (the “Private Placement”)(please refer to the news release issued by Western on December 17, 2021 for details on the first tranche of the Private Placement). At this closing, the Company raised gross proceeds of CAD$3,992,920 through the issuance of 2,495,575 units (the “Units”) at a price of CAD$1.60 per Unit. The total raised in the two tranches of this Private Placement of 2,868,541 Units aggregates to approximately CAD$4,589,666. Subsequent to the closing of the first tranche, Western obtained exchange approval to increase the Private Placement size to satisfy investors’ oversubscription demand.

Each Unit consists of one common share of Western (a "Share") plus one common share purchase warrant of Western (a “Warrant”). Each Warrant shall entitle the holder to purchase one Share at a price of CAD$2.50 per Share for a period of three years following the closing date of the Private Placement. A total of 2,868,541 Shares and 2,868,541 Warrants are being issued in the two tranches of the Private Placement.

The Warrants contain a provision that if the Company’s Shares trade at or above CAD$5.00 per Share for 10 consecutive trading days, the Company may, at any time after the expiry of the applicable statutory hold period, accelerate the expiration of the Warrants upon not less than 30 days’ written notice by the Company.

The Company anticipates that the net proceeds of the Private Placement will be used for expansion and extension of the Sunday Mine Complex project, for business development capital purposes, and for general corporate and working capital purposes.

Securities issued pursuant to the Private Placement shall be subject to a minimum six (6) month hold period.  The closing of the Private Placement remains subject to final regulatory approval.
