New Break raises US$384.1K to fund gold drilling near Timmins
What's the deal? New Break ResourcesDealroom has a profile for this one. Try Dealroom →, a Canadian mineral exploration company, has closed a non-brokered private placement flow-through financing for gross proceeds of US$384.1K (roughly $375,000). It issued 2,381,000 flow-through shares at US$0.16 each, with control person Patricia Quigley buying 455,000 of them.
What's the endgame? The proceeds will fund ongoing drilling at the company's Moray gold project, located about 49km southeast of Timmins, Ontario, in the Abitibi greenstone belt. Under flow-through rules, the funds qualify as Canadian Exploration Expenses, which New Break will renounce to purchasers with an effective date no later than December 31, 2026.
Why now? The company closed the raise days after announcing it on October 30, 2026. The securities carry a four-month hold period expiring March 4, 2027, and closing remains subject to final approval from the Canadian Securities ExchangeDealroom has a profile for this one. Try Dealroom →.
What could go wrong? Quigley's participation makes the issuance a related-party transaction under MI 61-101. New Break is relying on exemptions from formal valuation and minority shareholder approval, on the basis that the issuance does not exceed 25% of its market capitalisation.
New Break paid US$8.81K in finder's fees and issued 54,600 finder warrants, each exercisable at US$0.16 for 24 months.
The signal: At roughly $375,000, this is a modest raise that sits near the bottom of the funding range — in the 11th percentile by amount. It reflects how small-cap miners lean on flow-through financing to fund early exploration without large institutional backing.
