Agreed to sell 3,740,000 shares to Streamline Metals Capital Ltd., a private mining investor, for about $856,000 at $0.229/share -- new outside capital found after NYSE American's December 2024 delisting proceedings pushed the stock to the OTC Pink Market; the deal also requires Toronto Stock Exchange approval.
Golden Minerals sold 790,000 shares at $1.45 and pre-funded warrants for 637,587 shares in a registered direct offering, raising about $2.1 million gross. It also issued private warrants for 1,427,587 shares at $1.90.
Raised $3.0 million in a registered direct offering (15,000,000 shares) plus warrants at $0.20 per share -- pricing near the company's historic lows, with investors also getting rights to participate in up to 50% of any offering over the next year.
What it means for a shareholder
15.0m new shares at about US$0.200 to raise about US$3.0m. That's 12% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 12% smaller. If you held US$1,000 of shares (5,000 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.00461% to 0.00405% of the company. To keep it you'd need 692 more shares - about US$138 at the issue price.
Granted Barrick Gold Corporation an earn-in option on the El Quevar silver project (Salta, Argentina): Barrick could earn a 70% interest by spending $10 million on exploration over eight years and delivering a pre-feasibility study -- a major-miner endorsement of the project (an option Barrick would later drop in April 2024). Separately, restructured repayment of a $1.5 million deposit owed to Compania Minera Autlan after an earlier 2019 asset-sale agreement with Autlan fell through, with the unpaid balance now accruing 12% interest.

Raised $2.25 million selling 8,653,846 shares at $0.26 through H.C. Wainwright, with matching Series A warrants at $0.35. The same investors' May 2016 warrants, which still had until November 2021 to run at $0.75, were swapped one-for-one for 4.5 million new warrants at $0.35 - a repricing rather than a rescue of expiring paper, and further dilution on top of the placement.
What it means for a shareholder
8.7m new shares at US$0.260 to raise about US$2.3m. That's 8.1% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 8.1% smaller. If you held US$1,000 of shares (3,846 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.00392% to 0.0036% of the company. To keep it you'd need 339 more shares - about US$88 at the issue price.
Sold 3,153,808 shares to Lincoln Park Capital for just $1.3 million ($0.4122/share) under its equity line -- another small, dilutive raise reflecting continued financial distress.
Granted lessee Hecla Mining Company an option to extend its Velardeña oxide-plant lease by up to two more years (through end-2020) in exchange for a $1.0 million upfront cash payment plus a further $1.0 million purchase, extending a cash-generating relationship that had let Golden Minerals monetize idle processing capacity.
Sentient converted about $4.0 million of principal and interest on its 2015 $5 million secured note into 23,355,000 shares at roughly $0.17 -- steep dilution at a distressed share price.
Raised about $3.2 million in a Roth Capital-led unit offering at just $0.86 per unit -- a steep drop from 2012 pricing, reflecting the deepening silver bear market and the company's worsening finances.
Raised about $31.6 million in a Wells Fargo-led unit offering (5,497,504 shares plus half-warrants) at $5.75 per unit -- well below the $18.50 pricing of 2010, as silver prices retreated from their 2011 peak.

5.5m new shares at about US$5.75 to raise about US$31.6m. That's 13% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 13% smaller.

What it means for a shareholder
4.1m new shares at US$18.50 to raise about US$75.0m. Shares on issue before the raise aren't in the record, so the dilution can't be worked out.
