Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec--(Newsfile Corp. - December 30, 2024) - Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSXV: RDS) (OTCQB: RMRDF) ("Radisson" or the "Corporation") is pleased to announce that it has received total gross proceeds of C$782,264.25 from the exercise of 2,897,275 class A shares purchase warrants (the "Warrants") at a price of $0.27 per warrant. The Warrants were issued in relation to a private placement completed in June 2023 and had an expiry of December 30, 2024. They were exercised in full.
Matt Manson, President and CEO, commented: "We are grateful for the continuing support of our shareholders with the exercise of these warrants. We are closing 2024 with a robust treasury and a solid record of achievement during the year. Central to our work has been completing one of the largest drill programs ever undertaken at the O'Brien Gold Project ("O'Brien" or the "Project"). Results from this program will continue to be published into 2025, but we ended the year strongly with multiple high-grade intercepts highlighting the significant exploration potential of O'Brien at depth. These included results from the deepest hole ever drilled at the Project, and the first hole ever drilled below O'Brien's historic workings, which returned an intercept of 242.0 g/t gold over 1.0 metre within a mineralized interval averaging 31.24 g/t gold over 8.0 metres. This was achieved a full 500 metres below the original mine and the base of our current mineral resources. We also saw the potential re-discovery of the famous O'Brien "Jewellery Box" stope, with an intercept grading 1,345 g/t gold over 1.0 metre at shallow depth. These "top and bottom" hits will guide our exploration planning for 2025, which is focussed on bringing out both the resource upside potential of the Project at depth and its very high-grade characteristics."
Matt Manson continued: "During 2024 we also commenced work under the auspices of a Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") with IAMGOLD Corporation to assess the design criteria for processing mined material from O'Brien at the nearby Doyon gold mill, part of IAMGOLD's Doyon-Westwood mine complex. This development approach assumes that O'Brien would become a component of the type of hub-and-spoke mining and milling arrangement characteristic of gold mining in Québec's Abitibi region. Work under the MOU has progressed well, and has included metallurgical studies, flow sheet review, and a tailings assessment. We expect this work to be completed early in the new year. With these Project development studies and our ongoing exploration program, fully funded from a robust financial position, we are looking forward to a consequential year in 2025 for Radisson and the O'Brien Gold Project."
