PNX Metals lifts cash balance with non-dilutive forward silver sale

Funds will be used for ongoing exploration at the Hayes Creek Project.

PNX Metals Ltd (ASX:PNX) has received further support for its Hayes Creek Project, which has a promising future as a low-cost, high-margin zinc and precious metals mine.

The company has now secured an additional $800,000 in funding from an existing silver forward sales transaction.

Two of the investors involved in the transaction have elected to exercise their options to each acquire a further 56,000 ounces of silver to be produced from the Hayes Creek.

James Fox, managing director, commented:

"This further increase in commitment to the Hayes Creek Project underscores the financial viability demonstrated through the recently announced PFS results.
