The offering was completed through a syndicate of underwriters led by Cormark Securities Inc., and including Macquarie Capital Markets Canada Ltd., CIBC World Markets Inc., RBC Dominion Securities Inc., Scotia Capital Inc, Canaccord Genuity Corp., Desjardins Securities Inc. and Jennings Capital Inc. In connection with the offering, the company has also granted to the underwriters an option to purchase up to an additional 5.4 million shares at a price of 83 cents per share, on the same terms and conditions as the offering, exercisable at any time, in whole or in part, until May 31, 2014. "In summary, this financing strengthens our balance sheet and allows us to plan and execute on our growth initiatives while reducing our vulnerability to near-term gold price volatility," said Richard Young, president and chief executive officer. "We intend to use the net proceeds of the offering for working capital and general corporate purposes, which when combined with our existing cash position as well as cash from operations, will enable us to execute on our short- and medium-term objectives, as disclosed in our year-end report. Specifically, this will allow us to increase reserve development expenditures to expedite the conversion of resources to reserves on our mine licences, accelerate heap-leach testing and related activities, and execute on mill optimization opportunities to potentially increase our milling rate."
