Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 28, 2025) - BCM Resources Corporation (TSXV: B) ("BCM," the "Company") is pleased to announce the completion of its previously announced non-brokered private placement financing for gross proceeds of C$2,575,000 through the issuance of 20,600,000 Units priced at C$0.125 per Unit (the "Financing", see below for Unit details).
The sole subscriber of the Financing is a private, mining company, which views this as a strategic long-term investment.
BCM's President and CEO, Dr. Sergei Diakov, comments, "We are pleased to have received this strategic investment from a successful minerwhich endorses BCM management's belief that the Thompson Knolls Porphyry Cu-Au-Ag-Mo discovery has the potential to become a world-class deposit. The results of the in-depth scientific analysis of our drill core conducted by the Colorado School of Mines have given our team a high level of confidence in our upcoming drilling exploration."
Proceeds from the Financing will be used for general working capital purposes and to repay outstanding accounts payable.
The Company intends to seek additional financing from other miners/strategic investors regarding participation/funding to advance exploration drilling at its Thompson Knolls ("TK") project soon.
BCM owns a 100% interest in its flagship Thompson Knolls project, a blind greenfield porphyry Cu-Au-Ag-Mo discovery located in west-central Utah, USA. The project comprises 225 federal unpatented lode mining claims and two state section leases, totaling 2,242 ha (5,540 acres). Utah has recently been ranked by the Fraser Institute as the number one jurisdiction based on the Investment Attractiveness Index assessed worldwide. TK is located approximately 208 km southwest of Rio Tinto's Bingham Canyon porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum mine. The TK district is uniquely positioned in a sparsely populated region of Utah, with no environmentally sensitive areas.
To date, BCM Resources has conducted 3 phases of drilling comprising 12 drillholes, of which 7 delivered mineralized intercepts. Discovery hole TK1 intersected a porphyry copper mineralized body of quartz monzonite porphyry (QMP) intrusive. Follow-up drilling of 11 drill holes proved that mineralized porphyry within the Devonian age carbonate rocks (limestones and dolomites) also carries substantial copper-gold mineralization in the magnesian garnet-pyroxene skarns surrounding QMP. Phase 3 drilling resulted in the discovery of very encouraging Cu-Au-Ag mineralization in drill hole TK8, our best drill hole to date. TK8 intercepteda155.4 m interval of mineralized skarn from a depth of 621.8 m to 777.2 m with an average grade of 0.66% Cu, 0.12 g/t Au, and 7.4 g/t Ag, including a 21.3 m interval containing 1.25% Cu, 0.2 g/t Au, 15 g/t Ag.
The Company is currently operating under a 10-year Plan of Operation drill permit from the U.S. Bureau of Land Management ("BLM") and the State of Utah, received in 2023. Said permit allows the Company to use multiple drill rigs at any one time.
