FLOW-THROUGH
PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Pitchstone Exploration
Ltd. (TSX-V: PXP; “Pitchstone”) is pleased to announce that it intends
to proceed with a non-brokered private placement of up to 1,000,000
“flow-through” common shares at $3.10 per share to raise gross
proceeds of up to $3,100,000. There will be no warrants issued in the
private placement. A cash finder’s fee of 5% will be paid in
connection with part of the private placement.
The flow-through funds
raised through the private placement will be used for exploration on
Pitchstone’s Canadian property interests which will constitute
Canadian exploration expenses (as defined in the Income Tax Act) and
will be renounced for the 2007 taxation year.
Pitchstone is actively
exploring for uranium in four proven districts. The property portfolio
features ten projects in the eastern Athabasca Basin,
Saskatchewan, five of which are joint ventured with Uranium One, with
the other five being 100% owned. In addition, there are five joint
venture projects with Triex in the Hornby Bay Basin, Nunavut and NWT,
an exploration partnership with Cameco and Motapa Diamonds in the
Franceville Basin, Gabon, and an option on three projects in Namibia.
Pitchstone has a unique group of geologists with extensive uranium
exploration and production experience.
