09.02.2021  |  CNW
ST. JOHN'S, Feb. 9, 2021 - Aurion Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: AU) (OTCQX: AIRRF) ("Aurion" or the "Company") is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement of common shares (the "Kinross Private Placement") by Kinross Gold Corporation ("Kinross") which on closing will enable Kinross to maintain its ownership position of 9.98% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company.

By news releases dated January 29, 2021 and February 1, 2021, the Company announced a brokered private placement of 10,588,235 Common Shares at a price of C$0.85 per Common Share (the "Brokered Offering") through a syndicate of agents led by Cormark Securities Inc. (collectively, the "Agents").

The Company has also granted the Agents an option (the "Agents' Option"), exercisable at any time up to 48 hours prior to the closing of the Brokered Offering, to purchase up to an additional 15% of the number of common shares issuable under the Brokered Offering on the same terms and conditions.

Kinross initially purchased 6,853,500 common shares of the Company by way of private placement in September 2017, thus acquiring 9.98% of the then issued and outstanding common shares of the Company. Kinross has the right to maintain its pro rata interest in the Company for so long as it owns at least 5% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company from time to time. The Kinross Private Placement is expected to comprise the sale of a minimum of 1,429,500 common shares and a maximum of 1,605,600 common shares at a price of C$0.85 per common share, with the final amount to be determined by the extent to which the Agents' Option is exercised.

The closing of each of the Brokered Offering and the Kinross Private Placement is expected to occur on or about February 23, 2021 and is subject to the receipt of any necessary regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. All securities issued in connection with the Brokered Offering and the Kinross Private Placement will be subject to a statutory four-month hold period.

The securities to be offered under the Kinross Private Placement have not been, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act or any U.S. state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, United States persons absent registration or any applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable U.S. state securities laws. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities in the United States, nor in any other jurisdiction.
