Millrock President & CEO Gregory Beischer commented, “For this strategic financing – which will be used to acquire several high-potential projects – we were approached by a group of financiers that have previously invested in Millrock. While we are cognizant of the dilution this strategic financing will cause, we believe that the property acquisitions that we intend to make with the proceeds of this financing will ultimately pay off for all Millrock shareholders.”

Net proceeds from the private placement will be used to augment the Company’s current cash of $5.1 million and for general corporate purposes. The Company’s total cash position at closing is approximately $7.6 million.
