EganStreet Resources Ltd (ASX:EGA) has taken another step towards development of the Rothsay Gold Project after receiving indicative funding proposals to underpin debt funding.
In conjunction with financial adviser PCF Capital Group, EganStreet has completed initial assessments of several indicative and non-binding offers received from a range of financing groups.
These offers provide financing solutions ranging up to $35 million of conventional debt alternatives and include attractive commercial terms consistent with a project financing of this nature.

Last week, the company received high-grade results from drilling which indicate the potential to increase the 401,000-ounce gold resource.
Assays from a 16-hole diamond drilling program confirm that high-grade mineralisation extends to the south on Woodley’s Shear, which hosts the resource.
Ongoing exploration of targets near the resource, including drilling, is also returning encouraging results.
