PACGOLD COMMENCES TRADING ON ASX

  • Pacgold Limited is an Australian gold exploration company, focused on progressing its key asset, the Alice River Gold Project in North Queensland

  • Pacgold today commenced trading on the ASX with the code “PGO”, following a fully subscribed Initial Public Offer (IPO) which raised $6 million

  • The IPO was supported by a strong mix of institutional investors, resource-focussed funds, sophisticated investors and retail investors

  • Pacgold will use the funds raised from the IPO to progress an exploration and drilling program at the Alice River Gold Project, initially focusing on three priority targets covering 7km of the gold bearing shear zone

Gold exploration company, Pacgold Limited (“ PGO ”, “ Pacgold ” or the “ Company ”), has commenced trading on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) following completion of a fully subscribed IPO which raised $6 million through the issue of 24,000,000 shares at an issue price of $0.25 per share.

Pacgold is focused on progressing its key asset, the Alice River Gold Project in North Queensland. Alice River comprises a portfolio of eight mining leases and five exploration permits in a highly prospective gold terrain that has been historically underexplored. These mining leases and exploration permits include new compelling high-grade gold targets along a 30km corridor centred on a historical producing goldfield. Recent application of the latest IRGS exploration models and modern reprocessing of historical geophysical data has created new opportunities and targets at Alice River.

Commenting on the successful listing, Pacgold Managing Director, Tony Schreck said:

“The listing of Pacgold on the ASX today is a significant milestone for our management team, employees and shareholders. We are excited about progressing the Alice River Gold Project in North Queensland and commencing drilling in the short-term.

“We wish to thank our team of advisers who have assisted us in achieving our successful ASX listing and our shareholders, for their continued support.”
