NGEx Minerals Closes Upsized C$176.9 Million Private Placement

 

 

 

 

 

NGEx Minerals Ltd. (TSX: NGEX) (OTCQX: NGXXF) is pleased to announce it has closed its previously announced non-brokered private placement, which was originally announced on October 15, 2024, and was subsequently upsized due to strong investor demand.

 

Wojtek Wodzicki, President and CEO commented “I am excited to announce that the private placement financing was met with overwhelming demand, led by a number of international institutional investors and the Lundin Family. NGEx initially announced the size of the financing at C$100 million, which was ultimately expanded to $176.9 million. This significantly oversubscribed private placement puts NGEx in an enviable position. The Company is now fully funded and well positioned to execute our current phase 3 exploration program and has flexibility to expand the program if justified. The demand and size of this raise speaks volumes to the strong market support that NGEx currently has and the quality of the Company’s assets.

 

The Company sold an aggregate of 16,082,453 common shares of the Company at a price of C$11.00 per Common Share for gross proceeds of approximately C$176.9 million. In connection with the Private Placement, the Company paid a 5.0% cash finder’s fee on a portion of the Private Placement.

 

The net proceeds of the Private Placement will be predominantly used towards furthering exploration programs at the Lunahuasi project in San Juan Province, Argentina, continued exploration and maintenance of the Company’s Los Helados project located in Region III, Chile, as well as for general corporate and working capital purposes.

 

The Common Shares issued under the Private Placement will be subject to a hold period expiring on March 1, 2025.
