TORONTO, Aug. 2, 2022 /CNW/ - O3 Mining Inc. (TSXV: OIII) (OTCQX: OIIIF) ("O3 Mining" or the "Corporation) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with Canaccord Genuity Corp. on behalf of a syndicate of agents (collectively, the "Agents") in connection with a "best efforts" private placement (the "Charitable Flow-Through Offering") of 3,436,430 common shares of the Corporation (the "Charitable Flow-Through Shares"). The Charitable Flow-Through Shares will be issued at a price of $2.91 per Charitable Flow-Through Share (the "Charitable Flow-Through Offering Price") for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $10.0 million.

In addition, the Corporation will grant the Agents an option (the "Agents' Option"), exercisable 48 hours prior to the Closing Date (as herein defined), to sell up to an additional 515,465 Charitable Flow-Through Shares at the Charitable Flow-Through Offering Price for additional gross proceeds of up to $1.5 million.

The Corporation is also arranging a concurrent non-brokered private placement of traditional flow-through shares (the "Traditional Flow-Through Shares" and together with the Charitable Flow-Through Shares, the "Offered Securities") with strategic investors at a price of $2.31 per Traditional Flow-Through Share for additional gross proceeds of up to $5.0 million (the "Traditional Flow-Through Offering").

The Charitable Flow-Through Shares and the Traditional Flow-Through Shares will qualify as "flow-through shares" (within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and section 359.1 of the Taxation Act (Québec)). The gross proceeds from the Charitable Flow-Through Offering and the Traditional Flow-Through Offering will be used by the Corporation to incur eligible "Canadian exploration expenses" that qualify as "flow-through mining expenditures" (as both terms are defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada)) (the "Qualifying Expenditures") related to the projects of the Corporation in Québec. The Qualifying Expenditures will be renounced in favour of the subscribers of the Offered Securities with an effective date no later than December 31, 2022 and in the aggregate amount of not less than the total amount of the gross proceeds raised from the issuance of the Offered Securities.

The Charitable Flow-Through Offering and the Traditional Flow-Through Offering are being made by way of private placement in Canada. The Offered Securities will be subject to a four month hold period under applicable securities laws in Canada. The Charitable Flow-Through Offering and the Traditional Flow-Through Offering are expected to close on or about August 24, 2022 (the "Closing Date"), subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the customary closing conditions, including the conditional listing approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The securities have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act") or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to U.S. Persons (as defined in the 1933 Act) unless registered under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws, or an exemption from such registration is available.
