We are incredibly pleased to have closed this oversubscribed C$17M offering led by several globally significant institutional accounts. We are thankful for the continued support of our existing shareholders and welcome all new parties to our register.  Mawson intends to aggressively drill out the growing gold resource base in Finland over the next two years and immediately start exploration on our new Fosterville-style high grade projects in the Victorian goldfields of Australia.  We thank all parties involved, including our co-lead agents Red Cloud Securities Inc. and Sprott Capital Partners LP, as we now go forward with an extremely strong foundation.”
