Bessor Announces Closing of Private Placement and Termination of Easter Project Option
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES Vancouver, BC, July 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bessor Minerals Inc. (TSXV:BST) ("Bessor" or the 'Corporation') is pleased to announce that it has completed its previously announced non-brokered private placement offering on May 16, 2025, pursuant to which Bessor issued 5,000,0000 common shares in the capital of Bessor ('Common Shares') at a price of $0.02 per Common Share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $100,000 (the 'Private Placement'). All securities issued in connection with the Private Placement are subject to a hold period of four months and one day from July 9, 2025. The net proceeds from the Private Placement will be used for: potential exploration of Bessor's properties; potential future acquisitions; and general working capital. The Private Placement was completed using available prospectus exemptions under securities laws, including the accredited investor exemption and the close friends, family and business associates exemption. The Private Placement is subject to final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the 'TSXV'). MI 61-101 and TSXV Policy 5.9 Disclosure Of the 5,000,000 Common shares issued pursuant to the Private Placement, 350,000 Common Shares were issued directly or indirectly to Zygmunt Hancyk, a director of Bessor. Bessor relied on section 5.5(b) of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ('MI 61-101') as the exemption from the formal valuation requirements of MI 61-101 and TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.9 in respect of the issuance of the Common Shares to the director of Bessor as the Common Shares of Bessor are not listed on a specified market (and the Common Shares are only listed on the TSX Venture Exchange). The Corporation relied on section 5.7(1)(b) of MI 61-101 as the exemption from the minority approval requirements of MI 61-101 and TSX Venture Exchange Policy 5.9 in respect of the issuance of Common Shares to the director of the Corporation as Bessor is not listed on a specified stock exchange and, at the time the Private Placement was agreed to, neither the fair market value of the securities to be distributed pursuant to the Private Placement to such persons, nor the consideration to be received for those securities, will exceed $2,500,000. No special committee was established in connection with the Private Placement. The Board of Directors of Bessor has unanimously approved the Private Placement and no materially contrary view or abstention was expressed or made by any director in relation to the Private Placement. The material change report to be filed in relation to the closing of the Private Placement will not be not filed at least 21 days prior to the completion of the Private Placement as contemplated by MI 61-101. Bessor believes that this shorter period is reasonable and necessary in the circumstances as the completion of the Private Placement occurred shortly before the issuance of such material change report in relation to the Private Placement. Termination of Option The Corporation would also like to announce that further to its press release dated April 4, 2024, it has terminated its option to earn a 60% interest in the Easter Gold Project in Lincoln County, Nevada. ABOUT BESSOR MINERALS focus is on exploration and development of the Redhill volcanogenic massive sulphide deposit in British Columbia. In addition, Bessor has a 1% NSR on certain claims in the Blackwater Mine operated by Artemis Gold Inc.
