For Immediate Release 19 July 2017 Australian Securities Exchange: CYY
SITE‐WORKS INITIATED WITH A$5.7M FINANCING
CAPITAL RAISING
Coventry Resources Limited (“the Company”) requested a voluntary suspension on 12 July 2017 pending the release of an announcement regarding a capital raising. The Company is pleased to announce that it has received commitments to subscribe for approximately 285 million shares at $0.02 per share to raise approximately A$5.7 million ( Placement ). The Placement is being undertaken within the Company’s capacity under the ASX Listing Rules.
Settlement of the Placement is expected to take place on or around 25 July 2017. Interest in the raising was strong at an institutional level and the Company has received expressions of interest in additional demand following this closing.
The largest participants in the Placement comprise UK and Asian based institutional funds, including:
-
J.P. Morgan Asset Management; and
-
Ruffer LLP
The Company also advises that completion of the proposed acquisition of Vista Minerals Pty Ltd ( Vista ) is scheduled to take place contemporaneously with completion of the Placement. The Vista acquisition was originally subject to the Company completing a $10 million financing at $0.02 per share. The Company advises that it is in the process of varying the terms of the underlying Vista share sale agreement to reflect the terms of the Placement. Vista’s major shareholders have given their consent to the proposed variation and Vista has advised the Company that it does not anticipate any issues in securing the remainder of the consents prior to settlement.

The Company has been active on‐site during June and July and has already planned the initial geophysics and drilling programs for the 2017 field season.
Induced Polarisation (IP) surveying will commence at the Zackly, Senator and Mars prospects later this month.
