Equity Issue Update

Panthera Resources plc (AIM: PAT), the gold exploration and development company with assets in India and West Africa, advises that it has issued 3,464,000 new ordinary shares ("Shares"). 

On 29 October and 11 November 2021, the Company announced that it had arranged an equity capital raising of 10,000,000 shares at £0.10 for proceeds of £1,000,000 (the "Placing).  Pursuant to the Placing, the Company has issued the final tranche for £346,400 in proceeds.

Furthermore, the Company advises that it has issued 132,000 options exercisable at £0.10 on or before 24 November 2023 under broking arrangements for the Placing.

The proceeds for the placing will be applied to the MMI acquisition and an expanded drilling programme at Bassala planned to commence on or about the end of November 2021.  The expanded drilling programme will concentrate on the targets where the Company received encouraging assay results in the last quarter including:

10m @ 3.45g/t Au from 60m incl. 5m @ 6.59g/t Au from 60m

20m @ 2.12g/t Au from 10m incl. 10m @ 3.79g/t Au from 20m

25m @ 1.00g/t Au from 20m incl. 5m @ 3.18g/t Au from 20m

Application for Admission

Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for 3,464,000 new ordinary Panthera shares issued in respect of the Placing to be admitted to trading on the AIM market with admission expected to occur on or around 30 November 2021 (Admission).  The issued new ordinary Panthera shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary Panthera shares.

Following the Admission of the new Shares, the issued ordinary share capital of Panthera will consist of 104,416,258 Shares. 

For the purposes of the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules ("DTRs"), the issued ordinary share capital of Panthera following the allotment of the Shares consists of  104,416,258 ordinary shares of 1 pence each,  with voting rights attached (one vote per share). There are no shares held in treasury. This total voting rights figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculation by which they will determine whether they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, Panthera under the DTRs. Admission of the Shares is expected to become effective and dealings to commence at 8.00 am on 30 November 2021.
