11:05 AM EDT, 09/26/2018 (MT Newswires) -- RNC Minerals (RNX.TO) reports that 19.35 million common share warrants have been exercised at prices ranging from $0.24 to $0.50 per share, for total proceeds of $8.4 million.

"These exercises delivered a total of $8.4 million in additional cash to RNC. This infusion, in addition to the $38 million in cash to be received from the sale of the previously announced 24,000 ounces of gold recovered from the Fathers Day Vein discovery, will allow the company to repay all of its debt and achieve a substantial net cash position. This cash is expected to fully fund all corporate activities for the foreseeable future, including most importantly the upcoming exploration program at Beta Hunt," said Mark Selby, President and CEO of RNC.

RNX is the most actively traded on the TSX, on volume 20.8 million shares.
