The exchange has accepted the offering. All securities issued to purchasers under the offering will be subject to a four-month-and-one-day hold period from the date of issuance of the securities, pursuant to applicable securities legislation and the policies of the exchange.

The proceeds of the offering will be used for the exploration of the Majuba Hill Copper project and for general working capital purposes. Insider Ron Rieder purchased 85,000 units.
