With the population of the CP list now 75% completed, the only remaining item from the CP list is the balance of the US$23million equity component and, on the completion of that, the financing will then close and the Company’s elevation from junior to mid-cap miner will be complete. We expect to update the market shortly on this final CP when it is finalized.”
