VANCOUVER, British Columbia, July 24, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Global Uranium Corp. (CSE: GURN | OTC PINK: GURFF | FRA: Q3J) (the "Company") is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of up to C$3,000,000 (the "Offering").
The Offering is expected to consist of the offering of: (i) units of the Company at a price of $0.35 per unit (the "$0.35 Unit") for aggregate gross proceeds of up to C$2,000,000, with each $0.35 Unit comprised of one non-flow-through common share of the Company (each, a "Share") and one Share purchase warrant of the Company entitling the holder to acquire one Share (each, a "Warrant Share") at a price of C$0.45 per Warrant Share for a period of twenty-four months from the date of issuance (the "Non-Flow Through Offering"); and (ii) units of the Company at a price of $0.40 per unit (the "$0.40 Unit") for aggregate gross proceeds of up to C$1,000,000, with each $0.40 Unit comprised of one flow-through common share (each, a "FT Share") and one Share purchase warrant of the Company entitling the holder to acquire one Warrant Share at a price of C$0.45 per Warrant Share for a period of twenty-four months from the date of issuance (the "FT Offering").

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained in this press release constitute forward-looking information. These statements relate to future events or future performance. The use of any of the words "could", "intend", "expect", "believe", "will", "projected", "estimated" and similar expressions and statements relating to matters that are not historical facts are intended to identify forward-looking information and are based on the Company's current belief or assumptions as to the outcome and timing of such future events.
In particular, this press release contains forward-looking information relating to, among other things, the Offering, including the total anticipated proceeds, the expected use of proceeds, the Company's expectation that the FT Shares will qualify as flow-through shares as defined in the Tax Act, the Company's intention to renounce the flow-through mining expenditures to the initial purchasers of the FT Shares and the closing (including the proposed closing date) of the Offering. Various assumptions or factors are typically applied in drawing conclusions or making the forecasts or projections set out in forward-looking information, including the assumption that the Company will close the Offering on the timeline anticipated, will raise the anticipated amount of gross proceeds from the Offering and will use the proceeds of the Offering as anticipated (including to incur Canadian exploration expenses). Those assumptions and factors are based on information currently available to the Company. Although such statements are based on reasonable assumptions of the Company's management, there can be no assurance that any conclusions or forecasts will prove to be accurate.
Forward-looking information involves known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking information. Such factors include: the risk that the Offering does not close on the timeline expected, or at all; the risk that the Company raises less than the anticipated amount of gross proceeds from the Offering; the risk that the Company does not use the proceeds from the Offering as currently expected, including that the Company does not utilize the gross proceeds from the sale of the FT Shares to incur Canadian exploration expenses such that the Company may renounce flow-through mining expenditures to initial purchasers of the FT Shares; the risk that the FT Shares do not qualify as flow-through shares as defined in the Tax Act; risks inherent in the exploration and development of mineral deposits, including risks relating to receiving requisite permits and approvals, changes in project parameters or delays as plans continue to be redefined, that mineral exploration is inherently uncertain and that the results of mineral exploration may not be indicative of the actual geology or mineralization of a project; that mineral exploration may be unsuccessful or fail to achieve the results anticipated by the Company; operational risks; regulatory risks, including risks relating to the acquisition of the necessary licenses and permits; financing, capitalization and liquidity risks; title and environmental risks; and risks relating to the failure to receive all requisite regulatory approvals. The forward-looking information contained in this release is made as of the date hereof, and the Company is not obligated to update or revise any forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable securities laws. Because of the risks, uncertainties and assumptions contained herein, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information. The foregoing statements expressly qualify any forward-looking information contained herein.
The Canadian Securities Exchange has not reviewed, approved, or disapproved the contents of this press release.
