SASKATOON, Nov. 11 /CNW/ - Titan Uranium Inc. ("Titan" or the "Company") (TSX-V:TUE, FSE:T4X) is pleased to announce that it has increased the size of its previously announced non-brokered private placement offering of units ("Units") at a price of $0.30 per Unit and flow-through units (the "FT Units") at a price of $0.45 per FT Unit. Specifically, the Company now expects to raise aggregate gross proceeds of up to $7,000,000, consisting of up to $5,000,000 through the sale of Units and up to $2,000,000 through the sale of FT Units.

Each Unit will consist of one common share and one common share purchase warrant (each whole common share purchase warrant, a "Warrant"). Each FT Unit will consist of one common share, issued on a "flow-through" basis, and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole common share purchase warrant, a "FT Warrant"). Each whole Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one common share for a period of two years following the closing date at an exercise price of $0.45 per common share. Each whole FT Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one common share for a period of two years following the closing date at an exercise price of $0.50 per common share.
The Company will pay to certain finders a cash fee and issue to certain finders non-transferable warrants (the "Finder's Warrants") of up to 8% of the Units and FT Units sold pursuant to the efforts of such finders. Each Finder's Warrant would be exercisable to acquire one common share of the Company at a price of $0.45 for a period of two years from the closing date.
Certain directors and officers of the Company are expected to participate in the offering on the terms set forth above.
The securities issued under the private placement will be subject to a four-month plus one-day hold period from the closing date in accordance with applicable securities laws.
The Company anticipates closing of the offering as soon as practicable, subject to receipt of all necessary regulatory and TSX Venture Exchange approvals.
The securities offered have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or exemption from the registration requirements. This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

Our growth strategy is driven by three elements:

- Exploration: The goal is to discover world class uranium deposits by exploring over 1.5M acres of land in the proven Athabasca and prospective Thelon Basins. Exploration programs are also active in Utah and Wyoming.
- Consolidation: The Company is actively pursuing M & A opportunities and focused on uranium-friendly jurisdictions such as Saskatchewan and Wyoming.
Titan has gained market recognition for its ability to attract strategic partners to participate in the exploration of its properties. Japan Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation and Mega Uranium Ltd. are partners in current exploration programs managed by Titan.
