ADX Executive Chairman, Mr Ian Tchacos, said: "The Board of ADX are pleased with the strong support from our Shareholders. This issue together with the recent placement, has raised $6.378 million which demonstrates shareholder support for ADX' investment proposition and the potential of our upcoming drilling programs."
The SPP follows the successful completion of ADX's placement to sophisticated investors ('Placement') which raised $4.8 million before costs from Australian and European investors (as previously announced on 22 and 28 November 2023, respectively).
A total of 15.78 million new shares will be issued, together with 7.89 million unlisted options. The issue date for the new shares and options is Friday 22 December 2023.
