First Bauxite Corporation Announces Closing of Non-Brokered Private Placement

05/12/2013 3:27pm

Marketwired Canada


First Bauxite Corporation ("First Bauxite" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:FBX)
(FRANKFURT:FBI) (BERLIN:FBI) is pleased to announce that, further to its news
release issued November 25, 2013, it has now closed the non-brokered private
placement (the "Private Placement") to Resource Capital Fund V LP ("RCF") of
40,000,0000 common shares at a price of $0.125 per common share raising a total
of $5,000,000. 


RCF and its affiliates now hold an aggregate of approximately 45.5% of the
Company's outstanding common shares on an undiluted basis and approximately
51.9% on a fully diluted basis (assuming conversion of the convertible notes
issued to RCF and the exercise of the warrants issued to RCF and its affiliates
pursuant to the 2012 private placement with the Company). In addition, RCF holds
an option to purchase additional notes from the Company in the aggregate
principal amount of U.S.$20 million which will be convertible into common shares
of the Company. As the number of common shares of the Company issuable to RCF is
contingent, in part, upon future values and share prices, the number of shares
that RCF could acquire should it purchase the additional notes and exercise its
conversion rights in full cannot be determined as at the date of this press
release. Under the terms of the subscription agreement with RCF, RCF was granted
a non-dilute right to maintain its percentage ownership of the Company's
securities. Mason Hills, a partner of RCF, has been nominated for election to
the board of directors of the Company at the December 18, 2013 annual
shareholders' meeting, pursuant to the terms of the subscription agreement.


The common shares issued pursuant to the Private Placement are subject to a
statutory hold period which expires on April 6, 2014. A material change report
of the Company will be filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) later today. The material
change report is being filed less than 21 days prior to the closing of the
Private Placement due to the short time span between the signing of the
subscription agreement on November 22, 2013 and the closing of the Private
Placement, arising from the immediate cash needs of the Company. 


The Private Placement remains subject to the final approval of the TSX Venture
Exchange.


The proceeds of the Private Placement are designed to allow the Company to
improve its financial position and to proceed with its work programs including:
(i) completing the Preliminary Feasibility Study, first announced on February
14, 2013 and June 25, 2013, on the viability of manufacturing ceramic proppants
from the bauxites and kaolin hosted by the deposits in our Bonasika Mining
License; (ii) proceeding with limited Phase I pre-production work over the
Bonasika Mining License, inclusive of haul road and Bonasika 7 pit and waste
dump preparation; and (iii) exploring the twenty (20) Prospecting Licenses under
application in the areas adjacent to the Bonasika Mining License and the
Tarakulli Permission for Geological and Geophysical Survey which hosts the
Tarakulli and Canje prospects where historical drilling has indicated
metallurgical grade bauxite. The Company believes that these programs will
enhance the long-term prospects of the Company and will attract additional
investment in the Company from other sources of financing.
