Timberline Resources Corporation ("Timberline" or the "Company"), announced today that it has closed the previously announced underwritten public offering of its common stock. The Company offered 5,000,000 shares of its common stock at $0.20 per share to the public.
Timberline also granted the underwriter a 45-day option to purchase at the public offering price up to an aggregate of 750,000 additional shares of common stock to cover over-allotments, which over-allotment option was exercised by the underwriters and also closed, resulting in a total offering of 5,750,000 shares. Timberline received gross proceeds from the offering, including the exercised over-allotment option, before deducting the underwriting discount and estimated offering expenses payable by Timberline, of approximately $1.15 million.
Timberline intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for exploration of our Lookout Mountain Project in Nevada, exploration and development of other existing or acquired mineral properties, working capital requirements, acquisitions, or for other general corporate purposes.
