Mazorro Closes First Tranche of Private Placement


OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Sept. 29, 2014) - Mazorro Resources Inc. (the "Company") (CSE:MZO) (FRANKFURT:JAM) is pleased to announce that it has closed a first tranche of its previously-announced private placement (see July 16, 2014 press release), by issuing an aggregate of 5,013,000 units ("Units"), at a price of $0.10, for gross proceeds to the Company of $501,300. Each Unit is comprised of one common share (a "Share") and one common share purchase warrant (a "Warrant") entitling the holder thereof to acquire one additional Share at a price of $0.15 until September 29, 2016.

Jones, Gable & Company Limited (the "Agent") acted as agent in connection with the closing of the private placement and has received (i) a commission equal to 10% of the proceeds raised, as well as the reimbursement of its fees and expenses, and (ii) non-transferable options (the "Agent's Options"), exercisable at a price of $0.10, to acquire up to 501,300 Units until September 29, 2016, the whole as provided for in the agency agreement dated September 29, 2014 between the Agent and the Company. The Units underlying the Agent's Options are identical to the Units issued under the private placement.

Mr. André Audet, the President and CEO of the Company, Mr. John McNeice, the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, and Mr. Dean Hanisch, a director of the Company, participated in the private placement by purchasing an aggregate of 1,330,000 Units, which constitutes a related party transaction pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company relied on Section 5.5(a) of MI 61-101 for an exemption from the formal valuation requirement and Section 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 for an exemption from the minority shareholder approval requirement of MI 61-101 as the fair market value of the transaction with each of the parties did not exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.

The foregoing subscriptions were unanimously approved by all of the directors of the Company, and the Company has determined to close the private placement of the Units as soon as possible following the announcement of the private placement as it requires the proceeds for working capital. No new insiders of the Company were created, nor has there been any change of control as a result of the private placement.

The net proceeds from the private placement are expected to be used (i) for general working capital purposes, and (ii) to fund the Company's planned diversification strategy, including the proposed acquisition of 8816301 Canada Inc., also known as GrowPros MMP.

The securities issued in connection with the closing of the private placement are subject to a restricted period expiring on January 30, 2015. As a result of the closing of the private placement, Mazorro Resources Inc. has 32,770,387 common shares outstanding.

The Company may proceed with additional closings of the private placement, up to an aggregate maximum of $2,000,000 in proceeds.
