Each week I like to look at the upcoming IPOs which are happening on the ASX. It gives me a chance to see if there are any future stars being listed and perhaps get in early on that success story.

Every single share that currently trades on the ASX was a newly-listed share at one point, they should not be avoided just because they are new.

Here are the latest shares to be listing according to the ASX:

Adriatic Metals Plc (ASX: ADT)

Its proposed listing date is today, 30 April 2018.

Its principal activity is the exploration of mineral resources.

Adriatic is a UK company that is focusing its efforts on exploring and developing its 100%-owned zinc polymetallic projects in Bosnia & Herzegovina. One of its projects is a historic open cut zinc, lead, barite and silver mine whilst the other project is an advanced exploration project.

Adriatic Metals is hoping to raise $8,000,000  at $0.20 per CHESS Depositary Interest (CDI).

Metals 479 Ltd (ASX: ML7)

Its proposed listing date is tomorrow, 1 May 2018.

Its principal activity is minerals exploration.

Metals 479 has acquired a location in Nevada that is in a 'prolific' belt of gold and silver deposits. The company will use the money to drill and explore the area whilst undertaking exploration and pre-development activities.

Metals 479 is hoping to raise $7 million at $0.20 per share.

Microequities Asset Management Group Limited (ASX: MAM)

Its proposed listing date is today, 30 April 2018.

As the name might suggest, its principal activity is asset management.

It runs a few different funds that focus on microcaps. It invests in ASX listed companies with market capitalisations less than $250 million and global listed companies with a market cap below US$300 million.

Microequities is looking to raise around $19 million at $0.80 per share.

Foolish takeaway

As I've said a few times, I'm not the biggest fan of exploration commodity stocks, so I won't be considering investing in them. But, Microequities could be an interesting option if its funds continue to perform well and attract more funds.
