96 million shares will be issued at 0.55 cents per share

Eclipse Metals Ltd (ASX:EPM) has completed a well-supported placement to new investors raising around $513,000 before costs.

The placement will result in the issue of about 96 million new, fully paid ordinary shares in Eclipse, using the company’s available placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

The new shares will be issued at a price of 0.55 cents per new share, which represents a 15% discount to Eclipse’s 5-day trading Volume Weighted Average Price of 0.64 cents to May 7, 2020.

Funds from the placement will be directed to ‘gear up’ the company to commence exploration on the Devil’s Elbow Uranium-Gold-Palladium Project and for general working capital purposes.

Devil’s Elbow Project

The company recently identified 17 walk-up drill targets at its 100%-owned Devil’s Elbow project in Alligator Uranium Fields, Northern Territory.

Eclipse is aiming for ground exploration and drilling to commence in the near-term.
