WA1 Resources Ltd (ASX: WA1)
The WA1 Resources share price is down almost 14% to $16.69. The catalyst for this has been the completion of an institutional placement by the niobium company. WA1 Resources revealed that it has received firm commitments to raise $100 million at an issue price of $17 per new share. This follows strong support from new and existing institutional investors across the Americas and Australia. Funds raised will be applied toward pre-development and permitting activities for the Luni Niobium Project, as well as planned capital expenditure relating to supporting infrastructure. Managing Director, Paul Savich, commented: "The Luni Niobium Project is clearly an exceptional asset and this was again reflected in the strong demand recevied for the Placement from existing shareholders and new institutional investors across the world."
