ROUYN-NORANDA, QUÉBEC--(Marketwired - Oct. 3, 2013) - Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (News - Market indicators) ("Radisson") is pleased to announce that it closed a $ 180,000 private placement for development of the O'Brien/Kewagama project and of its new Lac Gouin SSO property with phosphate potential.
In connection with this placement, Radisson issued 1,000,000 flow-through shares at a price of $0.18. These shares are divided among 10 private investors. One insider has participated in this placement for an amount of $10,000. No cash compensation is linked to the placement and the shares issued are subject to a hold period of four months and one day.
Radisson's management intends to pursue its business plan and use the proceeds of this placement to complete the update of the resource estimate for Zone 36 East of the O'Brien property and initiate the metallurgical study.
The proceeds will also be used for prospecting on the Lac Gouin SSO property, located about 65 km southeast of Arianne Phosphate Inc.'s Lac à Paul deposit. The Lac Gouin SSO property is located approximately 115 km north of Lac Saint-Jean, in the province of Québec, and is easily accessible by logging roads.
The objective of this first phase of exploration work on Radisson's property is to find, confirm and define the scope and nature of the mineralization of the historical iron and apatite showing discovered by mapping by the Ministère des Ressources naturelles du Québec in 1962.
