RIEDEL COMPLETES $1.87 MILLION PLACEMENT

Drilling to target high-grade Tintic area at Kingman Gold Project

Riedel Resources Limited (ASX: RIE or the Company) is pleased to announce it has received firm commitments to raise approximately A$1.87 million (before costs) in new equity via a fully committed share placement to institutional, sophisticated and professional investors (“Placement”).

The Placement comprises the issue of approximately 125 million new shares in the Company (“New Shares”) at an issue price of A$0.015 per New Share. Shares issued under the Placement will rank equally with existing fully paid ordinary shares and the Company will utilise its existing 15% placement capacity in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

Riedel proposes to use funds from the Placement to undertake a 5,000m RC drill program at the Kingman Gold Project in Arizona, USA. The program is intended to follow up on the very high-grade gold and silver drill assay results achieved at Tintic in Riedel’s maiden drill program, which included:

  • 3.8m at 98.9g/t gold and 151g/t silver from 20.6m (hole 2021-CHL-004); and

  • 1.5m at 39.3g/t gold and 323g/t silver from 37.3m (hole 2021-CHL-011)

and as illustrated in Figure 1 below (refer ASX announcement dated 23 March 2021[1] ):

Riedel’s Chairman Michael Bohm commented: “We are particularly pleased with the support from both new investors and existing shareholders which we believe demonstrates the quality of the Company’s Kingman Project. Our drilling will focus on the Tintic area and our US-based team, which successfully carried out the last program on time and on budget, eagerly awaits commencement of drilling.”

Westar Capital Ltd acted as Sole Lead Manager to the Placement.

Several Riedel directors intend to participate in the Placement, subject to shareholder approval at a meeting scheduled in July. Director Scott Cuomo is also a director of Oracle Capital ( Oracle ) (AFSL No.: 521887) which will participate in the Placement, and it will receive a fee of 5% of any funds raised by Oracle.

Settlement of the New Shares is expected to occur on 11 June 2021, with quotation on 15 June 2021. This announcement is intended to lift the current trading halt placed on the Company's securities. By authorisation of the Board of Directors.
