New Issue: Mercator ups greenshoe on C$10 million private placement

By Sheri Kasprzak

Atlanta, April 11 - Mercator Minerals Ltd. said it has increased the size of the greenshoe attached to its previously announced C$10 million private placement of units.

The C$10 million private placement is comprised of 13,333,333 units at C$0.75 each. In addition, placement agents Jennings Capital Inc. and Acumen Capital Finance Partners Ltd. will now have an over-allotment option to sell up to 6,666,667 units at C$0.75 each.

The units include one share and one half-share warrant. The whole warrants allow for an additional share at C$1.00 each for 18 months.

The expiry of the warrants may be accelerated to 20 days if Mercator's stock closes higher than C$1.50 for 20 consecutive trading days.

The deal is expected to close April 18

Based in Vancouver, B.C., Mercator is a copper mining company. It plans to use the proceeds from the deal for debt repayment, a feasibility study for the development of a milling operation and for working capital.
