Eagle Mountain Mining Limited (ASX:EM2) (“ Eagle Mountain ” or “ the Company ”) is pleased to announce a non-renounceable entitlement offer of New Shares to raise up to $2,775,000 on issue (before costs) together with a free attaching Option on the basis of one Option for every two New Shares taken up.

Summary of the Entitlement Offer

Eagle Mountain confirms it will shortly lodge a prospectus to undertake a non-renounceable entitlement offer of approximately 18.5 million New Shares at an issue price of $0.15 to registered shareholders with an address in Australia, New Zealand, Switzerland or Singapore, on the basis of 1 New Share for every 5 ordinary shares held at the record date, to raise up to $2,775,000 (before costs) (“ the Entitlement Offer ”).

In addition, for every two New Shares taken up in the Entitlement Offer a free attaching Option will be issued (“ Offer Options ”). The Offer Options will be unlisted with a two-year term and be exercisable by payment of $0.20 each.

The Board have committed to taking up their full entitlement under the Offer (subject to compliance with the Corporations Act).

Eligible Shareholders

It is proposed that Shareholders with registered addresses inside Australia, New Zealand, Switzerland or Singapore who hold ordinary shares in the Company (“ Existing Shares ”) as at the record date (“ Eligible Shareholders ”) will be entitled to participate in the Issue.

Use of Funds

The Company is continuing to review the data received from the recent ‘Phase 1’ drilling campaign carried out over the Pacific Horizon Prospect on its highly prospective Silver Mountain copper-gold project in Arizona. Drilling is continuing on the Scarlett Prospect at two target areas, the Gold Veins and Silver Dollar Mine. Drilling has targeted the four unique styles of mineralisation found within the Silver Mountain Project, which lies on the same geological setting that hosts world-class porphyry copper mines such as Bagdad and Miami and also BHP/Rio’s Resolution project (one of the largest undeveloped copper deposits in the world). They also lie on the southern extension of the metallogenic belt that hosts United Verde and Iron King mines.

EAGLE MOUNTAIN MINING LIMITED

Eagle Mountain is a copper-gold explorer focused on the strategic exploration and development of the highly-prospective Silver Mountain Project located just outside of Phoenix, Arizona.

Arizona is at the heart of America’s mining industry and home to some of the world’s largest copper discoveries. Silver Mountain, which comprises three prospects, Pacific Horizon, Scarlett and Red Mule, lies on the same geological setting that hosts world-class porphyry copper mines such as Bagdad, Miami and Resolution, one of the largest undeveloped copper deposits in the world. It also lies on the southern extension of the metallogenic belt that hosts United Verde and Iron King.

Eagle Mountain is led by founder and Managing Director Charles Bass. Mr Bass has a proven track record in mining, having previously co-founded both Eagle Mining Corporation, a highly successful gold miner, and Aquila Resources, which was acquired by Baosteel and Aurizon Holdings for $1.4 billion in 2014.
