Placement of US$15m at 26p for Rosgeo JV

20 Sep 2021 07:33

RNS Number : 2758M
Eurasia Mining PLC
20 September 2021
 

20 September 2021

NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION, DISTRIBUTION OR DISSEMINATION, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR IN THE UNITED STATES OR IN, INTO OR FROM ANY JURISDICTION WHERE TO DO SO WOULD CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF THE RELEVANT LAWS OR REGULATIONS OF SUCH JURISDICTION.

 

THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONTAINS INSIDE INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN REGULATION NO. 596/2014 (AS IT FORMS PART OF RETAINED EU LAW AS DEFINED IN THE EUROPEAN UNION (WITHDRAWAL) ACT 2018) AND IS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE COMPANY'S OBLIGATIONS UNDER ARTICLE 7 OF THAT REGULATION.

 

EURASIA MINING PLC

("Eurasia" or "the Company")

Placement of US$15m at 26p for Rosgeo JV

Eurasia Mining Plc ("Eurasia" or the "Company"), the palladium, platinum, rhodium, iridium and gold producing company, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a securities purchase agreement for a private placement (the "Private Placement") of 41,551,563 new ordinary shares of the Company (the "Placing Shares") and warrants (the "Warrants") to purchase up to 41,551,563 new ordinary shares of the Company (the "Warrant Shares") to institutional investors at a price of 26 pence per ordinary share and associated Warrant, being the closing mid-market price of the Company's ordinary shares on 17 September 2021, for gross proceeds of approximately £11m, or approximately US$15m (not including any gross proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants), before deducting placement agent's fees and offering expenses.

The net proceeds of the Private Placement are intended to be used primarily to finance the joint venture with Rosgeo ("Rosgeo JV"), as announced via RNS dated 26 March 2021, including Nyud, Moroshkovoe and other major Rosgeo JV platinum group metals ("PGM") and battery metals open pit deposits.

The cash position of the Company prior to the Private Placement is about $20m with no debt and after significant investments made into the West Kytlim operating mines and plants expansion, as well as into the Monchetundra project as announced on 1 September 2021. The cash position of Eurasia after the Private Placement will be approximately US$35m.

After receiving a more sizable offer, the Directors have decided to limit the size of the Private Placement relative to the offer to minimise shareholder dilution and at the same time place the Company in a stronger position.

H.C. Wainwright & Co. is acting as the exclusive placement agent in the United States for the Private Placement.

The Warrants have an exercise price of 26p per ordinary share and may be exercised at any time upon issuance and prior to the 3-year anniversary of the issuance date. The Warrants are expected to be issued on 23 September 2021.

The total number of ordinary shares to be issued pursuant to the Private Placement, and assuming exercise of all of the Warrants, is 83,103,126 new ordinary shares of 0.1 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares"), which would represent approximately 2.87 per cent of the Company's enlarged fully diluted share capital of 2,895,111,558 Ordinary Shares.

Application for Admission & Total Voting Rights

The Placing Shares and Warrant Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing Ordinary Shares. Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the Placing Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ('Admission'). It is expected that Admission and settlement of the Private Placement will occur on or about 23 September 2021.

As a result of the issue of the Placing Shares as described above, the issued share capital of the Company, with voting rights, will consist of 2,853,559,995 ordinary shares of 0.1p each, assuming no exercise of the Warrants. As the Company does not hold any shares in treasury, this figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the UK Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

 

Comments

Christian Schaffalitzky, Executive Chairman commented: "The Directors are delighted that professional institutional investors offered to support Eurasia's fundamentals and its strategic options, as we continue to develop the Company including the upcoming acquisitions of Nyud, Moroshkovoe and other significant Rosgeo JV PGM and battery metals open pit deposits. Furthermore, while our board and management continue to be significant shareholders, the Directors are confident that the Private Placement will further strengthen Eurasia's negotiating position."

 

James Nieuwenhuys, CEO and Managing Director commented: "We have decided to advance the Rosgeo JV, as its projects' potential has become more evident during the course of the confirmatory work being done by Wardell Armstrong International in relation to both PGM and battery metals (nickel, copper and cobalt) that are future facing metals in relation to the fast-growing hydrogen and EV markets respectively."
