ATTRACTIVELY PRICED RIGHTS ISSUE TO RAISE UP TO $3.4 MILLION TO PROGRESS EXCITING COPPER AND GOLD PROSPECTS
The Directors of Adelaide Resources Limited (ASX: ADN, the Company ) are pleased to announce a pro rata non-renounceable rights issue ( Rights Issue ) to Shareholders of 1 New Share ( New Share ) for every 2 Shares held on the record date of 7 October 2014 at an issue price of $0.03 per share to raise approximately $3.436 million before costs. In addition, 1 free attaching Option ( New Option ) will be issued for every 2 New Shares issued under the Offer, with each Option exercisable at $0.05 per share and will have a 2-year term expiring on 30 September 2016.
The offer price of $0.03 represents a 14% discount to the closing price of the Company’s shares on 26 September 2014 and a 25% discount to the volume weighted average price of the Company’s shares over the 20 days leading up to the offer announcement. If the valuation of the free New Option is also taken into account, these discounts increase to 28% and 37% respectively.
A total of up to 114,539,906 New Shares and 57,269,953 New Options will be issued under the Rights Issue. Each New Share will be fully paid and will rank equally with the Company’s existing issued shares. No further consideration other than the payment of the Offer Price will be payable by Eligible Shareholders for the New Options. The New Options are transferrable. The Company will make application to the ASX for official quotation of the New Shares and New Options.
Eligible Shareholders will also be provided with the opportunity to further increase their shareholding in the Company by applying for additional shares in excess of their pro rata entitlement on the same terms as the Shares subscribed under the Rights Issue. Applications for additional shares will be satisfied in the event of and to the extent that there is any shortfall in acceptances of the Rights Issue.
This offer is only being extended to shareholders with registered addresses in Australia and New Zealand (Eligible Shareholders). All other shareholders ( Non-Resident Shareholders ) will not be offered entitlements under this issue. The Company has determined, in accordance with the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rules, that it would be unreasonable to make the offer to Non-Resident Shareholders having regard to the number of shareholders in the places where the offer would be made, the number and value of the rights that would be offered, and the cost of complying with the legal requirements in those places.
The net proceeds received from the Rights Issue will be principally used to complete drilling programs to advance the Company’s exciting existing discoveries, and to test earlier stage highly regarded targets, as follows:
- Reverse circulation or diamond drilling on the Moonta Project to test for deeper mineralisation at two well defined mineralised zones at the Alford West copper-gold prospect;

-
Drill testing of structural targets at existing gold deposits and trials to advance the application of ground breaking biogeochemical exploration research on the Eyre Peninsula Project;
-
Geological modelling and re-evaluation of the Rover 4 and Rover 1 copper-gold deposits on the Rover Project to assist in delivering downstream value;
