The Vancouver, Canada-based gold miner says it needs USD50 million of external financing over the next six months to bring it to a "state of sustainable positive free cash flow" at a corporate level.

This external financing could take a variety of forms, including debt or equity and may include proceeds from option or warrant exercises," Pure Gold says.
