Tertiary Minerals plc
("Tertiary" or "the Company")
Placing to raise £375,000
Tertiary Minerals plc (AIM: TYM), the London listed explorer focussed on
copper and precious metals in Zambia and Nevada, USA, wishes to announce that
it has raised £375,000, before expenses, through a placing of 468,750,000 new
ordinary shares (the "Placing Shares") in the Company at a price of 0.08 pence
per share (the "Placing Price"), being a 15.8% discount to the closing market
bid price on Friday 9 February 2024 (the "Placing").
The Placing was arranged through the Company's joint broker, Peterhouse
Capital Limited ("Peterhouse").
Mr Patrick Cheetham, Executive Chairman of the Company, has subscribed
£20,000 for 25,000,000 Placing Shares as part of the Placing. Mr Cheetham's
subscription constitutes a related party transaction in accordance with AIM
Rule 13. The independent directors of the Company (being Mr Donald McAlister
and Dr Mike Armitage), having consulted with SP Angel Corporate Finance LLP,
the Company's nominated adviser, consider that the terms of Mr Cheetham's
participation in the Placing are fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's
shareholders are concerned.
Following the issue of the Placing Shares, Mr. Cheetham will be beneficially
interested in 46,465,000 Ordinary Shares (including
2,843,625 Ordinary Shares held by his wife, Karen Cheetham), representing
approximately 1.80% of the Company's enlarged issued share capital.
Broker Engagement Warrants
Under the terms of its engagement, and subject to the passing of resolutions 4
and 5 at the Company's Annual General Meeting to be held on Wednesday 14
February 2024, Peterhouse will be issued with 23,437,500 warrants ("Broker
Engagement Warrants") to subscribe for further new ordinary shares at the
Placing Price at any time before one year from the date of Admission. The
Broker Engagement Warrants will not be admitted to trading on any exchange.
The Placing Shares are being issued under the Company's existing share issue
authorities.
Use of Proceeds
The net funds raised will be applied to exploration activities at the
Company's projects in Zambia and Nevada and working capital.
Admission
The Placing Shares will rank pari passu with the Company's existing ordinary
shares.
An application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for admission of the
Placing Shares to trading on AIM ("Admission"). Admission is expected to occur
at 8.00a.m. on or around Friday 16 February 2024.
Total Voting Rights
Following Admission of the Placing Shares the Company's enlarged issued share
capital will be 2,574,835,049 ordinary shares.
The Company holds no ordinary shares in treasury. Following Admission, the
total number of voting rights in the Company will be 2,574,835,049 and this
figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by
which they determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a
change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance
