By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., March 7 - Merc International Minerals Inc. said it completed the initial tranche of a non-brokered private placement of units and stock. The deal will raise C$9.25 million, and the company pocketed C$9 million in this closing.

The company is selling units of one common share and one half-share warrant at C$0.20 per unit and flow-through shares at C$0.25 per share. It sold 14.4 million units and 24.48 million shares in this tranche.

Each full warrant will be exercisable at C$0.35 for two years. The strike price reflects a 16.67% premium to the March 4 closing share price of C$0.30. The price per flow-through share is a 16.67% discount to that price.

Proceeds will be used for drilling and exploration of Merc's gold properties in the Northwest Territories and for general corporate purposes.

Based in Toronto, Merc is a gold exploration company focused on advancing its Damoti Lake Gold Project in the Northwest Territories.
