VANCOUVER, BC – (June 4, 2018) – FireFox Gold Corp. (“FireFox” or the “Company”) announces, effective May 31st, that it has completed the first tranche of a non-brokered private placement (the “Private Placement”) by issuing 1,084,872 units of the Company (“Units”) at a purchase price of $0.35 per Unit for gross proceeds of $379,705. The Company intends to complete a second tranche of the Private Placement before June 15, 2018. 

Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company and one-half of one non-transferrable common share purchase warrant (each whole such warrant a “Warrant”). Each Warrant is exercisable into one additional common share of the Company for a period of two years from the closing of the Private Placement at an exercise price of C$0.45. The expiry date of the Warrants is subject to acceleration under certain conditions.

It is anticipated that the proceeds of the Private Placement will be used for general corporate purposes, working capital and exploration activities on FireFox’s gold exploration properties in Finland.

The Units issued pursuant to the Private Placement will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months plus one day from the date of issuance, in accordance with applicable securities legislation. The Company anticipates paying finder’s fees on certain portions of this Private Placement, including broker warrants which would be exercisable at $0.35 for a period of two years from the closing of the Private Placement.

About FireFox Gold Corp.

FireFox is an unlisted reporting issuer in British Columbia and focused entirely on gold exploration in Finland. The Company holds a 100% interest (subject to a NSR royalty) in the 147-hectare Mustajärvi Property in Lapland. In addition, the Company has entered into an option agreement with Magnus Minerals Ltd. (“Magnus”), a private prospect generator company in Finland, through which it has an option to acquire a 100% interest in three projects (subject to a NSR royalty) that currently encompass approximately 67,000 hectares. In order to complete the option, the Company must invest CAD $2.5 million in exploration on the properties and make cash payments to Magnus of CAD $250,000 over a three-year period (See Silverstone Resources Corp. news release dated Aug 2, 2017).  Finally, the Company has executed a non-binding letter of intent with Magnus under which FireFox can acquire 100% interest (subject to a NSR royalty) in approximately 50,630 additional hectares of mineral exploration reservations in Lapland, Finland referred to as the Seuru Properties. Subject to the execution of a definitive option agreement, the Company has agreed to earn its interest in the Seuru Properties by making payments of CAD $200,000 in cash and 1,500,000 shares to Magnus over a three-year period, while investing CAD $1,500,000 in mineral exploration on the Properties. Combined with its other holdings of exploration reservations and ore prospecting permits, the addition of the Seuru Properties will bring FireFox’s total gold exploration portfolio to more than 117,000 hectares or 1,170 square kilometers, all located in Finland.

Finland is one of the top mining jurisdictions in the world as indicated by its 1st ranking in the Investment Attractiveness Index of the 2017 Fraser Institute Survey of Mining Companies. Having a strong mining law and long mining tradition, Finland remains underexplored for gold. Recent exploration results in the country have highlighted its prospectivity, and FireFox is proud to have a Finland based CEO and technical team.
