Eurasian Minerals publicizes C$17.5 million private placement of units

Vancouver, B.C., mineral explorer sells equity units at C$2.50 apiece

By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., Oct. 4 - Eurasian Minerals Inc. said it will sell 7 million units in a private placement.

The company will sell the units of one common share and a warrant at C$2.50 apiece for C$17.5 million.

Each five-year warrant is exercisable at C$3.50 in the first year, C$4.00 in the second year, C$4.50 in the third year, C$5.00 in the fourth year and C$5.50 in the final year.

The strike prices reflect 8.18%, 40.85%, 58.45%, 76.06% and 93.66% premiums to C$2.84, the Oct. 1 closing share price.

According to David M. Cole, president and chief executive officer, the funding will be used for "additional exploration work and organic growth within the company" - specifically, to help grow the Eurasian Capital division.

Cole said, "The board of directors believes now is a good time" to raise cash and that investors have been "keen to participate."

He also said he expected the deal to close "promptly."

Based in Vancouver, B.C., Eurasian is a mineral exploration company.
