Ventana Gold plans C$65 million private placement of special warrants

Proceeds earmarked for final feasibility study at La Bodega project

By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., Oct. 14 - Ventana Gold Corp. said it arranged a non-brokered private placement of 6.5 million special warrants.

The company will sell the warrants at C$10.00 apiece, a 0.5% discount to the Oct. 13 closing share price of C$10.05, for C$65 million. Each warrant will convert into one common share for no additional consideration.

Proceeds will be used to complete the final feasibility study at the La Bodega project, to fund further exploration drilling, for debt repayment and for general administrative purposes.

"The company has now secured sufficient proceeds to fund its exploration, engineering and development work on the La Bodega project through feasibility," Ventana president and chief executive officer Steve Orr said in a press release.

Vancouver, B.C.-based Ventana is a mineral exploration company.
