Congratulations to our client, Mayur Resources (ASX:MRL) on the completion of a US$10 million financing. Tamesis is pleased to have acted as the Company's financial adviser and looking forward to continuing the engagement, working towards an intended additional US$40 million equity financing for the development of the company's Central Lime Project in Papua New Guinea.
Mayur Resources (ASX:MRL) is pleased to announce that ACAM LP and other investors (collectively, Investors) have entered into definitive transaction documents with the Company to subscribe for US$10M of Convertible Notes. Pursuant to the Notes Documentation, there is a framework subject to conditions precedent, the Investors will provide an additional US$40M of equity funding to Mayur and its Central Lime Project (CLP) in Papua New Guinea. The commitment from the Investors underlines the potential of the Central Lime Project, which is underpinned by a long-life, high-quality resource that is centrally located on the doorstep of fast-growing and supply constrained Asia-Pacific markets. The US$10 million Notes financing will provide funding for CLP construction activities, retirement of existing debt and working capital. The remaining conditional investment commitment of US$40 million will be used to progress the CLP to full scale commercial production, which is scheduled to commence 18 months from Final Investment Decision. Lime is a fundamental ingredient across a huge range of industries, with limited viable substitutes, and plays a critical role in the conversion of critical minerals and metals to clean energy and battery-ready materials. Lime also plays a significant role in protecting the planet from the harmful effects of acidification and maintaining the productivity of many of our agricultural lands. This strategic investment supports PNG’s goal of reducing its reliance on lime imports and positions the country as a potential hub for industrial materials in the Asia-Pacific region. Richard Pegum, Chairman of Mayur Resources said: "We welcome the commitment of the Investors and look forward to progressing to unconditional funding of the Central Lime Project. The US$10 million Convertible Note will see the retirement of third-party debt and provide the necessary runway for our corporate and construction program, while we work towards considering a Final Investment Decision (FID) on the Central Lime Project.” https://bit.ly/3Y8gzN9
