both new and existing investors for this capital raise. The funds will enable
NFM to accelerate the inaugural drilling campaign, targeting HREE, Niobium and
Uranium, at our highly prospective Harts Range Project. Pleasingly, the macro
environment is favourable, with recent developments in the US improving the
outlook for HREE and Uranium. As such, the Board believes NFM is well placed
to generate value for shareholders as the drilling campaign gets underway."
The capital raised from the Placement will be used for ongoing exploration and
related activities including:
o Inaugural drill campaign at the Harts Range Project;
