The company is working with Pacific Road Capital to finalise a funding package.

Blackham Resources Ltd’s (ASX:BLK) shares have been granted a trading halt by the ASX, pending details regarding an update on its funding arrangements.

The halt will remain in place until the opening of trade on Monday 18 December 2017, or earlier if an announcement is made to the market.

Blackham is working with Pacific Road Capital to finalise the formal legal documentation surrounding the recently outlined $60 million funding package.
