Vancouver, British Columbia – TheNewswire – April 8 th, 2024 – Juggernaut Exploration Ltd.(TSX-V: JUGR) (OTCQB: JUGRF) (FSE: 4JE) (the “Company” or“Juggernaut”) is pleased to announce anon-brokered financing of up to $510,000 dollars. Crescat Capital LLC(“Crescat”) has agreed to make a strategic investment representinga 19.70% ownership of the Company post-funding on a partially dilutedbasis. Juggernaut welcomes this strategicinvestment from Crescat Capital and technical support from Dr Quinton Hennigh. Juggernaut’s High-GradeGold and Copper projects continue to garner strong interest andsupport from leading institutions and miners alike, confirming thequality of its three fully permitted, 100% controlled, drill-readyprojects located in the geopolitically stable world-class geologicterrane of Northwestern British Columbia and the GoldenTriangle.
Through his role as technical and geologic director ofCrescat Capital, Dr. Quinton Hennigh continues to provide technicaladvice to the Company. Dr. Hennigh is a world-renowned explorationgeologist with more than 30 years of experience, including with majorgold mining firms Homestake Mining, Newcrest Mining, and NewmontMining.
Dr. Hennighstated , "Verypromising results from 2023’s maiden drill program confirmed strongpotential for “Surebet” style intrusive-related gold-base metallodes at Bingo. In addition, follow up drilling at Midas continues todemonstrate the presence of a large volcanogenic massive sulfidesystem in need of further work. With interest in the miningexploration space quickly heating up, it is critical that companieslike Juggernaut get back to the job of making discovery. I lookforward to working with the Company’s team as plans are made forthis year’s drill campaign at both of these exciting projects."
