FINALIZE A $2 MILLION FINANCING
Lewisburg, KY.
– May 5, 2004 --- Delta Mining and Exploration
Corp. (OTC: DMXC) is pleased to announce the final stages of a US two
million (US$2,000,000) dollar financing with a Toronto based
investment house.
Subject to the
completion of legal documentation and regulatory approval, Delta has
successfully negotiated a US two million (US$2,000,000) dollar
financing with a large Canadian investment firm based in Toronto. The
investor will receive unregistered securities priced at five cents
($.05) per share and one warrant for every two shares purchased
exercisable at ten cents ($.10) carrying a two year term. This
agreement has been the result of continued negotiations between the
two parties. It is anticipated that all documentation and the
negotiated financing will be in place within the next month.
This influx of
funds is testament to the growing interest in the mining sector and
more specifically the Delta story. Funds will be utilized in a number
of areas but will be focused on the continued exploration on the
Homestead Kimberlite property and for general corporate purposes.
Delta has already found diamond indicator minerals, a kimberlite and a
micro-diamond on the Homestead property. The Homestead Kimberlite
will be explored in greater detail to determine the viability of the
kimberlite body. The surrounding area will also be explored for the
presence of further kimberlites.
Furthermore,
Delta will also allocate some of the funds to instigate a work program
for Bolivia, South America, where the company controls some 10,000
acres of prospective diamond and gold properties.
