The underwriters will also have the option to acquire up to an additional seven-million shares for C$2.25-million, bringing gross proceeds to C$17.25-million.
West African will use the proceeds to advance the 894 000 oz Sanbrado gold project, in Burkina Faso, including ongoing exploration drilling on the property.
