Rugby Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: RUG) has announced a CAD$3,000,000 non-brokered private placement, offering 60,000,000 units at $0.05 per unit. This strategic move will enable the company to accelerate its exploration and development efforts across a diverse portfolio of copper, gold, and silver projects. The private placement, which closed on August 2, 2023, involved 32 placees and insider participation, demonstrating strong investor support for Rugby's growth prospects.

The proceeds from the private placement will be allocated towards exploration and general expenses, with a focus on advancing the company's key projects. Rugby's portfolio includes the Cobrasco Copper Project in Colombia, the Mantau Gold-Copper Project in Chile, the El Zanjon Gold-Silver Project in Argentina, the Venidero Gold-Silver Project in Argentina, and the Georgetown Gold-Copper Project in Australia.

The Cobrasco Copper Project, a large-scale porphyry copper-molybdenum target, is a primary beneficiary of the private placement. Rugby plans to complete the third drill hole and secure a joint venture partner to fund further development. The Mantau Gold-Copper Project, located in a favorable geologic environment for copper-gold deposits, will see geochemical and geophysical programs in H2, 2024. In Argentina, detailed magnetic surveying is planned for the El Zanjon and Venidero projects in 2024, followed by drilling in 2025. Additionally, the Georgetown Gold-Copper Project in Australia will benefit from a geochemical sampling program, geophysics, and drilling planned for H2, 2024.



The successful completion of this private placement will enhance Rugby's market position and investor confidence. With a stronger balance sheet, the company can pursue growth opportunities and weather market fluctuations. The funds raised will enable Rugby to accelerate its exploration activities, potentially leading to new discoveries and increased resource estimates, which could attract more investors.

Rugby Resources' experienced team has a proven track record of major discoveries, such as Caspiche, Cerro Moro, and Didipio, which resulted in significant corporate transactions. This private placement allows Rugby to build on its exploration success and potentially unlock value for investors.

In conclusion, Rugby Resources Ltd.'s CAD$3,000,000 non-brokered private placement will significantly accelerate the company's exploration and development efforts. With a balanced allocation strategy and a focus on high-potential projects, Rugby is well-positioned to create long-term value for shareholders. The successful completion of this placement will strengthen the company's market position and investor confidence, as it continues to pursue its growth prospects in the global mining sector.
