THUNDER BAY, CANADA, April 01, 2014 /FSC/ - Mongolia Growth Group Ltd. (YAK - TSX Venture), ("MGG") or ("the Company") is pleased to announce that on March 31, 2014, the Company closed the non-brokered private placement which was previously announced on March 3, 2014 ("the Offering"). The Company issued 125,000 common shares in the capital of the Company ("Common Shares") at a price of CDN $2.00 per Common Share for aggregate proceeds of CDN $250,000.
