Not for Distribution to United States news wire services or for Dissemination in the United States
(PresseBox) - Aurania Resources Ltd. (TSXV: ARU) (OTCQB: AUIAF) (Frankfurt: 20Q) (?Aurania? or the ?Company?) wishes to provide an update on the non-brokered private placement previously announced (see news release dated July 18, 2019) for units of the Company (the ?Units?) at a price of C$2.70 per Unit, for total gross proceeds of up to C$4,000,000 (the ?Offering?). Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (a ?Common Share?) and one-half of a Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant a ?Warrant?). Each whole Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of $4.00 for a period of 18 months following closing of the Offering.
The Units and underlying securities are subject to a customary four months and a day hold period. The Units and underlying securities have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the ?U.S. Securities Act?) or applicable state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to U.S. Persons (as defined in the U.S. Securities Act) without registration, or exemption from registration, under such laws.
The Company anticipates closing the first tranche (the ?First Tranche?) of the Offering in the week of August 26, 2019 and expects to close subsequent tranche(s) of the Offering in the second half of September 2019.
It is anticipated that Dr. Keith Barron, Chairman and CEO of the Company, will participate in the First Tranche by acquiring 402,962 Units through corporate entities over which he has direction and control. Dr. Barron?s participation in the Offering will constitute a "related party transaction" under the Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ? Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company expects to rely on the exemption from the formal valuation requirements of MI 61-101 available on the basis of the securities of the Company not being listed on specified markets, including the Toronto Stock Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ or certain overseas stock exchanges. The Company also expects to rely the exemption from minority shareholder approval requirements under MI 61-101 on the basis that the fair market value of the anticipated participation in the Offering by Dr. Barron does not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of the Company.
The gross proceeds raised from the sale of the Units pursuant to the Offering will be used by the Company to advance exploration in the Lost Cities ? Cutucu Project in southeastern Ecuador and environs, including the analysis of large data sets, initial drilling of gold targets, advancement of copper targets, and for general working capital purposes.

Forward-looking statements include estimates and statements that describe Aurania?s future plans, objectives or goals, including words to the effect that Aurania or its management expects a stated condition or result to occur. Forward-looking statements may be identified by such terms as ?believes?, ?anticipates?, ?expects?, ?estimates?, ?may?, ?could?, ?would?, ?will?, or ?plan?. Since forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Although these statements are based on information currently available to Aurania, Aurania provides no assurance that actual results will meet management?s expectations. Risks, uncertainties and other factors involved with forward-looking information could cause actual events, results, performance, prospects and opportunities to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information.
