Corazon Mining Limited (ASX: CZN) (“Corazon” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce the undertaking a capital raising to raise up to approximately A$2.6 million to fund the acquisition and exploration of the MacBride base and precious metals project in Manitoba province, Canada.

The Company has received firm commitments from sophisticated, professional and institutional investors to raise up to approximately A$300,000 through a placement of up to approximately 100 million fully paid ordinary shares (“Shares”) at an issue price of A$0.003 per Share (“Placement”).

ASX Announcement | Placement Accelerates Exploration – 11 November 2024

==> picture [125 x 29] intentionally omitted <==

Participants in the Placement will also be issued one New Option (defined below) for every one Share subscribed for in the Placement, subject to a shareholder meeting to be held in December 2024 (date to be advised) (“General Meeting”). The Company will apply for quotation of the New Options.

Corazon also intends to conduct an entitlement offer (“Entitlement Offer”) to eligible shareholders, to raise approximately A$2.3 million on the same terms as the Placement. The entitlement offer has been partially underwritten up to A$1.2 million.

Corazon’s Managing Director, Mr Brett Smith, stated:

“The support for the Placement is testament to the exploration opportunity the MacBride Project will offer Corazon. While we welcome new investors, the Entitlement Offer is structured for the benefit of existing shareholders.

This funding will allow us to secure the MacBride-Wellmet-Barrington base and precious metal deposits and to accelerate exploration to test the compelling targets we have already generated.”

Following completion of the capital raising, Corazon’s exploration focus will be on the MacBride Copper-Zinc-Gold-Silver Project (“MacBride”), located near its flagship asset, the Lynn Lake Project, in Manitoba, Canada.

This capital raising will allow Corazon to complete the acquisition of the MacBride Project, which includes the drill defined MacBride, Wellmet and Barrington base and precious metal deposits (ASX announcement 13 June 2024), and immediately commence a major exploration campaign at MacBride which will include;

  • Resource and Geological modelling of the MacBride deposit; and

==> picture [10 x 10] intentionally omitted <==

Drill testing priority conductors.

Further details of the Entitlement Offer and Placement are provided below.

Placement Details

The Placement consists of the issue of approximately 100 million Shares at an issue price of A$0.003 per Share.

Defining the A$0.003 issue price is influenced by requirements associated with the Entitlement Offer. It is a 48% discount to the 15-day volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) to the 6[th] November 2024. The VWAP price is skewed by the low number of trades (2-3 trades per day) and volume during this period.

The Placement Shares are intended to be issued on Tuesday, 19[th] November 2024 under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. Accordingly, participants in the Placement will be eligible to participate in the Entitlement Offer.

Corazon will seek shareholder approval at the General Meeting to issue one free attaching option (“New Option”) for every one Share issued to participants in the Placement. The New Options will be exercisable at A$0.006 each on or before 31 December 2027.

Entitlement Offer Details

In conjunction with the Placement, Corazon is undertaking an the Entitlement Offer to raise up to $A2.3m, pursuant to which Corazon is giving eligible shareholders the opportunity to

Other Matters

Further details of the Entitlement Offer, including details on how to accept the Entitlement Offer and key risks will be set out in a prospectus which is expected to be lodged with ASIC and the ASX on 14 November 2024 (“Prospectus”).

Shareholders may view the Company’s ASX announcements, including those relating to the Entitlement Offer, on the ASX website under the ASX code: CZN.

Eligible shareholders should consider the Prospectus before deciding whether to acquire securities and will need to complete the personalised entitlement and acceptance form that will accompany the Prospectus in order to apply for securities under the Entitlement Offer.

Current Exploration Activities

Corazon’s exploration focus following completion of the Placement will be the MacBride Copper-Zinc-Gold-Silver Project, located near its flagship asset, the Lynn Lake Project, in Manitoba, Canada.

This capital raising will allow Corazon to complete the acquisition of MacBride, which includes the drill defined MacBride, Wellmet and Barrington base and precious metal deposits (ASX announcement 13 June 2024). The Company was initially interested in these deposits as potential high-value start-up feed for any future mining and processing operation within the historical Lynn Lake nickel-copper-cobalt sulphide mining centre.

The results of initial due-diligence exploration suggest MacBride has much better exploration potential than initially thought. Numerous geophysical conductive bodies have been identified under cover and on-trend from the outcropping, drill defined MacBride high-grade zinc-copper massive sulphide deposit (ASX announcement 7 October 2024). The geophysical anomalies are identified over a strike of approximately five kilometres within a geophysical survey partially covering a favourable stratigraphic horizon that links up to the Wellmet coppergold-zinc deposit (overall, a +10 kilometre trend).

Exploration proposed subsequent to completion of the acquisition and the capital raising includes –

  • Drill testing priority conductors.

Lynn Lake – Manitoba Canada

Mining and metallurgical testwork programs are continuing for the historical Lynn Lake Mining Centre. Excellent results returned to date, from a number of processing technologies, have led to an extension of the metallurgical testwork program (ASX announcement 23 August 2023). The current phase of studies has been completed and the results are in the process of being interpreted and reported. Following this work, a fully optimised and scheduled mine plan will be generated for assessment.

ASX Announcement The goal of the current mining and metallurgical studies is to define the value of a Lynn Lake nickel-copper-cobalt mining opportunity.

Recently, Corazon announced its acquisition of three high-grade zinc-copper-gold deposits located near Lynn Lake (ASX announcement 13 June 2024). The three deposits add to Corazon’s existing portfolio of seven copper-zinc-gold deposits within its 100% owned Lynn Lake tenure. The copper and zinc deposits are seen as possible high-value feedstock for a future mineral processing operation at Lynn Lake.

Nickel, copper, cobalt and zinc are critical metals of growing interest in Canada and the United States of America.

- - Mt Gilmore, NSW, Australia Drilling New Copper Gold Target

A new, high-priority porphyry copper-gold target has been defined at the Mt Gilmore Project’s May Queen prospect – a significant anomaly with a strike length of ~2 kilometres, possessing mineral chemistry analogous with other giant porphyry copper-gold deposits in NSW – a “Tier1” location for larger porphyry copper deposits (ASX announcements 2 April and 5 April 2024).

The significant May Queen target is situated at the northern end of the +20 kilometre long copper-cobalt-gold Mt Gillmore Trend, prospective for intrusion-related copper-gold deposits. This target was identified by the Corazon and the Centre for Ore Deposit and Earth Sciences at the University of Tasmania, utilising highly reliable mineral chemistry vectoring methods.

The May Queen target displays favourable hydrothermal alteration, along with coincident surface copper-in-soil and anomalous geophysical signatures.

Corazon recently completed a two-hole maiden drill program at the May Queen prospect (ASX 2 October 2024). Drilling delivered positive results with favourable porphyritic intrusive rocks and alteration intersected typical of a mineralised porphyry system. The presence of copper sulphide assemblages of bornite and chalcopyrite in epidote-chlorite-quartz veins within a porphyry supports the target model for large-scale porphyry copper-gold deposit at May Queen.

On-going exploration under consideration includes a more comprehensive coverage of geophysics to further define drill targets within the +2 kilometre striking May Queen target area.

Miriam - WA

Corazon has divested an 85% interest in the lithium and industrial minerals rights for the Miriam Project (Western Australia), to Future Battery Minerals Limited (“FBM”) (ASX announcements 25 March 2024 and 24 May 2024).

The transaction delivered initial cash and FBM shares to Corazon, with performance rights allowing the Company to participate in any future upside from FBM’s exploration or development success at the combined Miriam and Kangaroo Hills lithium projects.

Corazon has retained 100% of the base and precious metal rights at Miriam and is free-carried on the lithium exploration costs (with 15% ownership) until completion of a positive definitive feasibility study.

In addition to lithium pegmatite targets, Corazon has identified several targets along the basal contact of the ultramafic lithologies at Miriam, suitable for nickel sulphide mineralisation.
