ARBOR METALS ANNOUNCES CLOSING OF PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Arbor Metals Corp. has successfully completed a non-brokered private placement, raising gross proceeds of $450,000 through the issuance of 3 million units priced at $0.15 per unit. The Vancouver-based mining company, which trades on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol ABR and on the Frankfurt Exchange as 432, structured the offering as a direct placement without the use of investment banking intermediaries.

The completion of this private placement provides Arbor Metals with immediate working capital to advance its exploration and development programs. Private placements of this size are typical for junior mining companies seeking to fund early-stage activities while minimizing dilution and transaction costs compared to larger public offerings.

For the broader junior mining sector, this financing demonstrates continued investor appetite for well-positioned exploration companies, particularly those with diversified commodity exposure. The successful closing at the targeted price point suggests confidence in Arbor's project portfolio and management team. The funds will likely support ongoing exploration work, property acquisitions, or general corporate purposes as the company advances its strategic objectives in the current commodity cycle.
