The Board of Bulletin Resources Limited (ASX: BNR, Bulletin) is pleased to announce that it is undertaking a capital raising via a non-renounceable rights issue (“Rights Issue”) and two separate placements (“Placements”) to raise up to $3.63M before costs.
Proceeds from the Rights Issue and Placements will be used predominantly to advance the Company’s flagship Lake Rebecca gold project where recent RC drilling confirmed high grade gold zones both along strike and to the north east of Apollo Consolidated Limited’s (“AOP”) Rebecca gold deposit. Exploration at the Lake Rebecca gold project will include:
-
Further RC drilling along strike of the Rebecca gold trend found from previous aircore drilling
-
RC and diamond drilling of anomalous gold trends found in previous aircore drilling
-
Soil sampling and ground magnetic survey of new targets generated in the 2020 target review and, where applicable, subsequent follow up drilling
The Company will also commence initial exploration at its other projects including both the Chifley gold project and the Ravensthorpe Lithium project.
Particular attention will be given to the identification and acquisition of new opportunities that may arise and whereby a more well-funded Company may be able to take advantage of.
Bulletin’s Chairman, Mr Paul Poli said “The Board has come to the conclusion that a stronger balance sheet will enable Bulletin to both progress exploration at the Lake Rebecca gold project where exploration so far as given us confidence in the project but also to act on new opportunities that may arise from time to time. The Board believes the best way to do this is via a non-renounceable rights issue that gives all shareholders the opportunity to participate at a discounted price.”

Each New Share issued under the First Placement will have a 1 for 3 free attaching New Option on the same terms and conditions as the New Options issued under the Rights Issue. The number of New Shares offered under the Contingent Placement will be determined by reference to the shortfall securities under the Rights Issue, such that the number of New Shares offered under the Contingent Placement will be the difference between the Rights Issue shortfall securities and 20,000,000. The Contingent Placement is not underwritten. Westar will be the lead manager of the Contingent Placement.
