Rare Earth Metals Corp, (REM – TSX.V),
September 13, 2005, (the “Company”)
announces that it has engaged Bolder Investment Partners as agent to
carry out a
brokered private placement of 6,000,000 units at $0.10 per unit for
gross
proceeds of $600,000 to fund its newly formed subsidiary, Harvest Gold
Corporation (“Harvest Gold”). The units will be comprised of one common
share
and one share purchase warrant with each such warrant entitling the
holder to
acquire a further common share of Harvest Gold at a price of $0.20 for a
term of
two years. The two year term is subject to a written expiry notice
provision
triggered by the stock trading at or above a weighted average trading
price of
$0.35 for 20 consecutive days. Upon such written notice from the
company, the
warrant will expire 30 days from the date of that notice.
Harvest Gold is currently a wholly owned subsidiary of Rare Earth Metals
formed
to hold its gold and gold-silver properties. As detailed in the
Company’s news
release of June 2, 2005, it is proposed that Harvest Gold will be spun
off as a
new public company by way of a plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”). A
Shareholders’ meeting to approve the Arrangement has been set for
October 7,
2005. This private placement is being undertaken to enable Harvest Gold
to meet
the minimum listing requirements for a Tier 2 issuer on the TSX Venture
Exchange. Closing of the private placement is anticipated to occur
immediately
prior to the completion of the Arrangement. All monies raised will be
held in
trust until all necessary approvals are given and Harvest Gold completes
its
listing on the TSX Venture Exchange.
As agent, Bolder Investment Partners will receive a cash commission
equal to 8 %
of the gross proceeds of the private placement and brokers warrants
equal to 10
% of the total number of units sold, each such warrant entitling the
holder to
acquire one common share of the Company at a price of $0.20 for a term
of 2
years.
Closing of the private placement remains subject to regulatory
acceptance.
The placement will be made pursuant to prospectus exemptions, including
the
Offering Memorandum exemption.
Proceeds of the placement will be applied to fund exploration on the
Company’s
Longstreet Mine property located in Nye County, Nevada, USA, to the
costs of the
proposed reorganization and for general working capital.
On behalf of the Board of Directors,
John Roozendaal B.Sc
President, CEO & Director
Rare Earth Metals Corp.
