Canada-based Magna Mining has entered into an agreement with SCP Resource Finance and Desjardins Capital Markets to act as co-lead agents for a private placement offering to raise C$25m.
The proceeds will be used to fund the company’s Sudbury projects in Ontario and for general corporate and working capital purposes.
Sudbury is a major global hub for nickel and copper production and is considered the “centre of Canada’s mining industry”, claims the company.
Magna Mining’s projects in the region include the Crean Hill Mine and the Shakespeare Project.
The offering includes up to C$15m in unsecured convertible debentures, issued in C$1,000 increments with a 2% original issue discount.
The company will also issue up to 6,451,612 common shares at C$1.55 per share for gross proceeds of up to C$10m.
