Updated on Nov. 3, 2026 in Investing
Halcones Precious Metals Corp. closed the second and final tranche of its non-brokered private placement, issuing 9,000,000 units at $0.05 per unit for gross proceeds of $450,000. The Offering totals 20,000,000 units and $1,000,000 in aggregate gross proceeds, and remains subject to final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
Why it matters
The financing gives the junior explorer capital to pursue its Polaris project in Chile's Maricunga Belt while also reducing liabilities through the write-off of management and consultant fees. Investors in the units hold shares paired with warrants exercisable at $0.05 for 24 months.
The second tranche raised $450,000 from 9,000,000 units at $0.05 each, bringing the total Offering to $1,000,000 across 20,000,000 units. Final approval from the TSX Venture Exchange remains pending, and the statutory hold on second tranche securities runs until March 4, 2027.
The players
Halcones Precious Metals Corp.
A Toronto-based junior exploration company focused on gold-silver projects in the Maricunga Belt of Chile.
TSX Venture Exchange
The Canadian exchange that must approve the Offering before it is finalized, and which oversees listings for emerging companies.
The details
Halcones issued units consisting of one common share and one common share purchase warrant, with each warrant exercisable at $0.05 for 24 months.

Timeline
October 8, 2026: Company disclosed the intended use of proceeds.
October 15, 2026: First tranche of the Offering closed.
November 3, 2026: Second and final tranche closed.
March 4, 2027: Statutory hold period on second tranche securities expires.
Market Dynamics
Non-brokered unit placements paired with warrants remain a common way for TSX Venture-listed explorers to fund early-stage work when traditional bank financing is unavailable. The Halcones raise follows this established pattern for junior mining companies in Canada.
Investors who bought units in the second tranche cannot sell or transfer those securities until March 4, 2027. Holders of the attached warrants may choose to exercise them at $0.05 per share within 24 months of issuance if they believe the share price will rise.
The takeaway
Warrants attached to small-cap unit offerings can dilute existing shareholders if exercised, so investors should review the exercise price and expiry before buying. Checking whether an exchange has approved a financing is also worthwhile before relying on its proceeds.
