SHARE PLACEMENT CONFIRMED
-
Placement to international institutional investors confirmed
-
EGM called to approve share issue that finalises funding for the Lerala project
-
First diamond production from Lerala on schedule for early 2008
Diamonex Limited today announced a successful share placement of approximately $8 million through London-based broker Fox-Davies Capital Limited to international institutional investors, completing funding arrangements to bring the Lerala diamond mine in Botswana into production.
Approval is being sought at a general meeting of shareholders to be held on 20 August 2007 for the placement of up to 27 million new shares at an issue price of A$0.31. A notice of meeting has been mailed to shareholders.
A total of 25,258,212 shares were placed by Fox-Davies at A$0.31 per share, to raise $7,830,046. An initial placement of 9,758,212 shares has been allotted. Allotment of the balance of shares is subject to shareholder approval.
Announcing the placement, DiamonEx Chairman Mr Greg King said:
“DiamonEx welcomes this further demonstration of confidence by large, highly regarded investors in the international resources industry.
“Our main focus now is to complete the Lerala project whose construction is already well advanced. Mining is scheduled to start late in 2007, and first production is due in early 2008 whereupon Lerala is scheduled to produce an average of 330,000 carats per year for 10 years.”
The placement confirmed today was foreshadowed in an announcement on 13 July 2007 of final funding arrangements that will be utilised to complete the Lerala project and provide funding for exploration and working capital and comprises:
-
the approximate $8m placement by Fox-Davies;
