HANS Hanstone Gold Corp

Hanstone Gold Corp. (TSXV: HANS) (FSE: HGO) ("Hanstone" or the "Company"), is pleased to announce that, effective December 23, 2021, it will close a non-brokered private placement (the “Offering”) under which Hanstone will raise aggregate gross proceeds of $772,500.

The Offering consists of the issuance of: (i) an aggregate of 1,395,000 units of the Company (the “Units”) at a price of $0.20 per Unit for gross proceeds of $279,000, and (ii) an aggregate of 1,974,000 “flow-through” common shares of the Company (the “FT Common Shares”) at a price of $0.25 per FT Common Share for gross proceeds of $493,500. Each Unit is comprised of one common share of the Company (a “Common Share”) and one Common Share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”). Each Warrant is exercisable to acquire an additional Common Share (a “Warrant Share”) at a price of $0.30 per Warrant Share for 12 months from the date of issuance, provided that if the Common Shares trade at or above $0.40 per share for 10 consecutive trading days, then the expiry date of the Warrants will be automatically accelerated to the date that is 30 days after the date the Company provides an acceleration notice by press release to the holders of the Warrants.

The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Offering for its ongoing exploration drilling program, working capital requirements and other general corporate purposes. The proceeds received by the Company from the sale of FT Common Shares will be used to incur eligible "Canadian exploration expenses" (“CEE”) that are "flow-through mining expenditures" (as such term is defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada)) related to the Company’s Doc and Snip North projects. The Company will renounce such CEE to the purchasers of the FT Common Shares with an effective date of no later than December 31, 2021. The proceeds received by the Company from the sale of Units will be used for working capital requirements and other general corporate purposes.

In connection with closing, the Company will pay finder’s fees of $7,350 and will issue 31,150 non-transferable compensation options, each entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of $0.30 for 24 months, provided that if the Common Shares trade at or above $0.40 per share for 10 consecutive trading days, then the expiry date of the compensation options will be automatically accelerated to the date that is 30 days after the date the Company provides an acceleration notice by press release to the holders of the compensation options.

The closing of the Offering is subject to the receipt of the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. The securities issued under the Offering will be subject to a four month hold period expiring April 24, 2022. There is no material fact or material change about the Company that has not been generally disclosed.

The securities being offered have not been, nor will they be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and such securities may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons absent registration or an applicable exemption from U.S. registration requirements and applicable U.S. state securities laws.
