VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 02, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Medallion Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: MDL; OTCPK: MLLOF; Frankfurt: MRDN) – “Medallion” or the “Company”), is pleased to report that during the quarter ended September 30, 2020 shareholders have exercised warrants and options for gross proceeds of approximately $741,000. The warrants and options were priced between $0.10 and $0.32 with an average exercise price of $0.21 per share.
“The recent over subscribed financing, in combination with the progressive exercise of warrants and options, has provided Medallion with an excellent working capital position,” said Mark Saxon, President & CEO. “We are grateful for the support of our shareholders and look forward to accelerating our rare earth element from monazite strategy during this pivotal moment in the industry.”
Medallion is focused on the development of a comprehensive rare earth element (“REE”) supply chain within North America. The Company has recently welcomed Talaxis Ltd as a shareholder and partner to support the sourcing of monazite feedstock and is reviewing downstream separation partnerships.
Monazite is used today as a source of REEs in both China and India, where it is considered an attractive feedstock due to its high REE content (up to 65% REE by weight) and the relative abundance of the magnet metals neodymium (Nd) and praseodymium (Pr).

Monazite is a rare-earth phosphate mineral that is widely available as a by-product from mineral sand mining operations. REEs are critical inputs to electric and hybrid vehicles, electronics, imaging systems, wind turbines and strategic defense systems. Medallion is committed to following best practices and accepted international standards in all aspects of mineral transportation, processing and the safe management of waste materials.
