Republic Gold in trading halt pending capital raising
Queensland based Republic Gold (ASX:RAU) has requested the ASX that the company’s securities be placed in pre-open, pending a release regarding capital raising specifics.
The trading halt will remain in place until the company releases an announcement, or the commencement of trade on Tuesday 14 September 2010.
The capital raising is part of a broader program for the miner to increase cash holdings, and follows the New South Wales Burraga asset sale for $800,000, to Burraga Copper (BCPL) last month.
Under the Burraga asset sale arrangement, Republic has the right to buy back the Burraga assets at three different times and three different prices during the next year.
BCPL will also enter into a Management Agreement with the Company to ensure the proper management of the licences and tenements.
The Republic current market capitalisation is $19 million.
