Placement to fund Collerina Copper Drilling

Funds raised to be focused on advancing the Collerina Copper Deposit

Highlights

Helix is pleased to announce the completion of a placement to raise $0.9m at $0.03 per share. The placement was undertaken at Helix’s last traded market price. Peloton Capital was the lead manager with funds raised from institutional and sophisticated investors.

Funds will be used to advance the Company’s flagship NSW assets and for working capital purposes.

  • A key focus will be undertaking additional infill and extensional drilling of the highgrade Central Zone massive sulphide at Collerina in order to enable the completion of an initial JORC Mineral Resource estimate.

  • A drilling program at Collerina is planned to commence this week and is designed to test EM conductors within the interpreted mineralised corridor, both infilling previous drill intercepts and targeting mineralisation down plunge to approximately 450m below surface.

  • Down hole EM continues to be a useful exploration tool to vector toward zones of massive sulphide accumulation, with more surveys planned during this planned drill program.

Helix Resources Limited (ASX:HLX) ( Helix or the Company ) is pleased to announce the completion of a placement to raise $0.9m via the issue of 30,000,000 at the last market close price of 3 cents (as at close of trade on 9 October 2018). Peloton Capital was the lead manager with the funds raised from institutional and sophisticated investors. The issue will be undertaken using the Company’s capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1

The funds from the capital raising will be used to advance the Company’s flagship NSW copper assets and for working capital purposes. The primary use of funds is to fast-track the drilling at the Collerina Copper Deposit to enable the completion of an initial JORC Mineral Resource estimate.

Managing Director Mick Wilson said: “With the completion of this capital raising, Helix is well placed to continue its active exploration program for the rest of this year. We are awaiting results from our recent exploration programs at Yathella and Mundarlo and this work is complemented by the ramping up of exploration activities at Helix’s Copper Projects in Chile funded by our exploration partners”.
