Use of Proceeds
VR plans to use the gross proceeds of the Financing for mineral exploration in Nevada, and for general working capital. More specifically, the Company plans to use the funds to bolster the program budget for a planned drill program on its New Boston polymetallic copper-moly-silver property in Nevada. The Financing will build upon the funds expected to be received from the recently announced transaction and sale of the Company's HeclaKilmer REE property in northern Ontario.
From VR's CEO, Dr. Michael Gunning, 'This financing is about fiscal discipline, and conviction. The upcoming drill program planned on the polymetallic copper-moly-silver porphyry system on our New Boston is founded on the non-dilutive funds from the recently announced sale of our Hecla-Kilmer property and P-REENb discovery. In the meantime, the goal of this financing is to bolster the New Boston drill budget, for two reasons: Fiscal discipline. Additional funds will provide a contingency on inflation, which despite our experience in Nevada and our control on costs, will effect every single line item on our budget. Conviction. Should we encounter the copper mineralization that we see at surface in the East Zone bowl throughout our initial planned holes, these additional funds will allow us to be more flexible, and aggressive with regard to letting the planned holes run longer, or considering additional holes.'
