BacTech Annual Statements; Arranges Private Placement
  
 

TORONTO, CANADA--(Marketwired - May 7, 2014) - BacTech Environmental Corporation ("BacTech") (CSE:BAC)(OTC:BCCEF)(WKN:A1H4TY) today announced that it did not file its annual financial statements and related filings within the period prescribed for filing of such documents for 2013.

The Company is working diligently to rectify this situation. With this in mind, BacTech has arranged, via private placement, a CAD$75,000, unit financing that will allow for completion of the annual financials by its auditors, MNP LLP. It is expected that the filing of the annual statements will be completed before May 15, 2014.

The private placement consists of a unit containing one (1) common share and (1) common share purchase warrant priced at CAD$0.01 per unit. Each common share warrant will allow the holder to purchase an additional common share in the Company at CAD$0.05 for a period of (3) three years from the date of closing of the private placement.

BacTech will continue to undertake flotation and gravity test work for its Bolivian tailings project. The Company feels this project offers BacTech the best opportunity to obtain near term cash flow at this time.
