According to the original announcement on September 8, the financing included a lead order from Crescat Capital, a global macro asset management firm headquartered in Denver, Colorado.

Kevin Smith, Chief Investment Officer at Crescat, said the firm is taking a “friendly activist” approach to investing in the precious metals industry.

“Our goal at this stage of the cycle is to identify and invest in a portfolio of the largest and most economic new gold and silver deposits in viable jurisdictions around the world.

“We are excited about the high grade intercepts at StrikePoint’s Willoughby gold property and are eager to support the company in building out the deposit,” he added.

StrikePoint Gold (SKP) is currently up 2.5 per cent and is trading at 20 cents per share at 2:07pm EDT.
