VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Purecore Metals Inc. (CSE: PURE) (FSE: J8Y) (OTCQB: PPURF) (“Purecore” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that, as a result of strong investor demand, the Company has upsized its previously announced non-brokered private placement from C$2,500,000 to up to C$3,500,000 (the “Offering”).
The Offering will consist of a combination of hard dollar units of the Company (the “HD Units”) at a price of C$1.35 per HD Unit and flow-through units of the Company (the “FT Units”) at a price of C$1.50 per FT Unit. All other terms of the Offering, including the terms of the warrants comprising the HD Units and FT Units, the warrant acceleration provision and the payment of finder’s fees, remain as described in the Company’s news release dated October 2, 2026.
Use of Proceeds
The net proceeds from the sale of the HD Units are expected to be used to advance the Company’s mineral exploration activities, for property-related expenditures and acquisitions, consulting/advisory services and for general corporate and working capital purposes including marketing and investor relations activities.
The gross proceeds allocated to the common shares of the Company (the “Common Shares”) comprising the FT Units will be used by the Company to incur eligible “Canadian exploration expenses” that are intended to qualify as “flow-through mining expenditures” or “flow-through critical mineral mining expenditures”, as such terms are defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada).
The Company intends to renounce qualifying expenditures to FT Unit subscribers, with an effective date no later than December 31, 2026, in an amount not less than the gross proceeds allocated to the Common Shares comprising the FT Units.
Completion of the Offering remains subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions and all applicable corporate and regulatory requirements, including the policies of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”).
All securities issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a four-month hold period from their applicable date of issuance in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws and the policies of the CSE.
The securities to be issued under the Offering will be offered pursuant to applicable exemptions from the prospectus requirements of Canadian securities laws.
