Beauce raised $600,000 at $0.03 per share to fund placer exploration amid cash constraints.

Executive Summary

Beauce Gold Fields Inc. (TSX-V: BGF) announced the identification of 19th-century mine shafts on its Saint-Simon-les-Mines property, which spatially align with the historical gold exploitation zone of Lot 14 of the De Léry township. The company is advancing preparatory work for a seismic geophysical survey and plans future sonic drilling to define the geometry of the interpreted paleovalley, building on a June 2026 technical evaluation.

Concurrently, BGF announced a brokered private placement of 20,000,000 units at $0.03 per unit, raising gross proceeds of $600,000. Each unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. The warrant allows the purchase of one common share at $0.07 per share for 24 months from closing. Proceeds are designated for exploration and general working capital. Insiders are expected to subscribe for potentially over 25% of the placement. A mandatory 4-month-and-1-day hold period applies to the shares.

Material Impact

Beauce Gold Fields Inc. (BGF) released an exploration update regarding historical shafts, an expected incremental follow-up to the June 2026 exploration target revision and the July 2026 seismic survey commencement. The update validates the geological model but does not constitute a new discovery or resource definition.

The company also announced a $600,000 private placement at $0.03 per unit. This pricing represents a discount to the recent trading range of $0.04–$0.05 and signals management's urgency to raise capital amid tight liquidity. While the financing extends the company's cash runway marginally, it underscores the severe capital constraints highlighted by the explicit going concern warning in the Q3 2026 MD&A.
