Each full warrant entitles the holder thereof, during a period of 36 months from the date of closing of the placement, to purchase one Afri-Can common share at an exercise price of 20 cents per common share. Each security issued pursuant to the placement has a mandatory four-month holding period from the date of closing of the placement.

Regarding EPL 3403, geophysical survey analysis and interpretation are well advanced, and an initial report is being prepared. The data’s high quality and resolution enable modelling of the geology, morphology and stratigraphy of the south end of EPL 3403 in greater detail than previously planned. This is expected to lead to improved preparation and planning for the second sampling program and eventual trial mining. The second sampling program schedule will be finalized after closing of the $3-million financing.
