Result of Oversubscribed Retail Offer

 

Alba Mineral Resources plc (AIM: ALBA) is pleased to announce, further to its
earlier announcement of 18 July 2024, that it has conditionally raised
approximately £192,522 (before expenses) via the conditional issue of
550,063,457 new ordinary shares of 0.01 pence each in the capital of the
Company (the "Retail Offer Shares") at a price of 0.035 pence per share (the
"Issue Price") pursuant to its offer to its existing retail shareholders via
CMC CapX (the "Retail Offer").  The Retail Offer has been significantly
oversubscribed in relation to its original target raise of £100,000 and the
Company has decided to accommodate that excess demand from its shareholders.
The Company wishes to thank shareholders for their continued support.

 

The Retail Offer is conditional on the Retail Offer Shares being admitted to
trading on the AIM market operated by London Stock Exchange plc ("Admission").
Admission is expected to take place at 8.00 a.m. on or around 26 July 2024.
Completion of the Retail Offer is conditional, inter alia, upon the
completion of the share placing separately announced on 18 July 2024.

 

This announcement should be read in its entirety. In particular, the
information in the "Important Notices" section of the announcement should be
