Use of Proceeds
The proceeds from the First Closing will be used to finance ongoing permitting and exploration work at the Company's Let's Go Lithium project located in the Amargosa Valley of Nevada, USA.
Judson Culter, CEO at Rover, states: "Gunnar's commitment to financing the permitting process for our Let's Go Lithium ("LGL") project is huge for us. We have significantly reduced our burn rate to allow us to focus our working capital on the continued NEPA permitting process for the LGL project. Our last equity financing was in the summer of 2023. As a Company, we are positioned to ride-out this bear market in lithium exploration. Our valued partners at the UES, Reno office, have been out in the field since March of this year doing the work needed to move the LGL project to the next level. Management is satisfied with the UES fieldwork to date and feel confident that exploration drilling can be achieved in the area, with less than five acres of planned disturbance."
