The Placing is being conducted through an accelerated bookbuild process to be undertaken by Liberum Capital Limited, and Peterhouse Capital Limited acting as Joint Bookrunners. The Bookbuild will commence immediately following the release of this announcement. The final number of shares to be issued pursuant to the Fundraise will be determined by the Bookbuild and announced upon closing of the Bookbuild.

Summary

·      The Placing will be made to certain existing shareholders and other institutional investors.

·      All of the directors and some management of the Company have indicated an intention to participate in the Subscription up to an aggregate amount of approximately £100k (approximately US$124k).

“Capital raised through the proposed fundraising will allow the Company to progress its Phase II exploration drilling.  A discovery made at Tai will help to unlock the value of our entire portfolio and help grow the Company into a strategic player in developing a new supply in this high-value, high-demand, high-tech commodity.”
