Panther Metals PLC (LON:PALM) said it achieved the first stage in the process of pursuing a listing of its Australian assets on the Australian Securities Exchange with the completion of a pre-IPO seed financing raising AU$300,000 (£167,000).
As a result of the financing, the interest of Panther in its subsidiary, Panther Resources Ltd, has reduced from 100% to 89.3%, said the exploration company.
