ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 1 March 2021
REDSTONE PLACEMENT OF UP TO $2.6M TO FURTHER ADVANCE WEST MUSGRAVE COPPER PROJECT HEAVILY OVERSUBSCRIBED
HIGHLIGHTS
-
Redstone successfully completes an oversubscribed private placement that raised $2,275,000 (before costs) at an issue price of 1.2c per share, representing a 13.85% discount to the 15 day VWAP.
-
The Directors (and/or their nominee(s)) have also reserved the right to place a further $325,000 (before costs) at 1.2c per share, subject to shareholder approval, to bring the total raising to $2.6M.
-
Applications were accepted and funds received from professional and sophisticated investors introduced by lead broker to the placement, 180 Markets Pty Ltd.
-
Funds will be primarily used to continue targeted evaluation and exploration of the Company’s 100% owned West Musgrave Project (the Project). Planning for a reverse circulation and exploration programme is currently underway and is anticipated to commence once requisite government approvals and heritage clearances have been granted and drilling resources are available.
-
Excellent results from the latest exploration confirmed the improved prospectivity for copper mineralisation across the Project tenure, beyond the Tollu copper vein deposit (Tollu), warranting further evaluation and follow up in this next programme including from drilling at the EM5 Target (ASX announcement 6 July 2020) and targets identified in a project scale mapping and rock chip sampling programme (ASX announcement 15 July 2020).
-
The Project has significant potential for further copper mineraliation with these promising walk up drill targets.
-
Further evaluation of the broader highly prospective West Musgrave Project has the potential to add to its current JORC compliant Tollu copper resource (3.8 million tonnes at 1% Cu, containing 38,000 tonnes of copper[1] ), both at Tollu and areas outside of Tollu.
-
Global copper price and sentiment is strong, recently hitting a nine and a half year high and currently over 100% above the March 2020 low.

Redstone Resources Limited (ASX Code: RDS) (‘ Redstone ’ or the ‘Company ’) is very pleased to announce that it has undertaken a private placement of up to 216,666,667 million fully paid ordinary shares in the Company at $0.012 per share (“ Shares ”) to raise up to $2,600,000 (before costs) (‘ Placement ’).
The Placement received strong support from a number of new sophisticated and professional investors introduced by the lead manager to the offer, 180 Markets Pty Ltd. The Placement was heavily oversubscribed with applications and funds totalling $2,275,000 having been accepted and received. The Directors (and/or their nominee(s)) have also reserved the right to place up to another $325,000 (before costs) to bring to the total Placement amount to up to $2.6M, subject to the Company obtaining shareholder approval.
The Placement was made in accordance with the Company’s existing LR7.1 and LR7.1A placement capacity. The new Placement shares will rank equally with the existing Redstone shares quoted on ASX.
This Placement funds ensure that the Company will be funded to further advance the increased prospectivity of its 100% owned West Musgrave (the ‘ Project ’), which includes the Tollu Copper Vein deposit (‘ Tollu ’), and its potential to host economic copper mineralisation.
Redstone’s Chairman, Richard Homsany, said:
“The success of this fundraising is testament to the high quality of Redstone’s West Musgrave Project and personnel. We sincerely thank investors, new and existing, for their strong support. We welcome new shareholders and thank 180 Markets for acting as lead manager to the Placement.
The extent of copper mineralisation discovered outside Tollu together with Tollu’s consistent high grade copper intersections provide significant exploration upside. Redstone’s West Musgrave Project has shown that its potential copper endowment is not constrained. Prospective walk up drill targets including EM5 ‘look‐alike’ magnetic anomalies warrant further exploration. We look forward to the next drill campaign.”
Planning is currently underway for an upcoming reverse circulation drilling programme on the Project, which will commence once requisite government approvals and heritage clearances have been granted, and once drilling resources are available.
The proposed programme follows from the excellent results from the Company’s most recent exploration campaign, which included reverse circulation drilling at Tollu and the EM5 electromagnetic target and a project scale mapping and rock chip sampling programme, which significantly enhanced existing prospects and established new areas of copper prospectivity on the Project ( Figure 1 ) (ASX Announcement 15 February 2021).
