Placement was heavily oversubscribed and made to new and existing institutional and sophisticated investors
Funds raised to be used primarily to accelerate exploration, including significant drilling activity, at the 100% owned Cambodian Gold Project
Renaissance Minerals Limited (ASX: RNS) ("Renaissance" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has resolved to raise $6.0 million through a heavily oversubscribed equity placement ("Placement"). The Placement is being made to new and existing institutional and sophisticated shareholders.
The funds raised from the Placement will enable the Company to accelerate exploration activities at its 100% owned Cambodian Gold Project, which will include drill testing a number of new and highly prospective targets in close proximity to the 1.2Moz2 Okvau Deposit.
Renaissance Minerals' Managing Director, Justin Tremain commented:
