Horizonte Minerals Plc: Result of General Meeting and Total Voting Rights Approves Close of £9 Million Fundraise for Araguaia Feasibility Study

29.11.2016  |  Marketwired

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM--(Marketwired - Nov 29, 2016) - Horizonte Minerals Plc, (AIM:HZM)(TSX:HZM) ('Horizonte' or 'the Company') is pleased to announce that, at its General Meeting held earlier today, the resolutions set out in the Notice of General Meeting sent to Shareholders on 1 November 2016 were duly passed and as a result the Company will close its previously announced £9 million placing to fund a Feasibility Study at its 100% owned Araguaia Nickel Project in Brazil ('Araguaia' or 'the Project').

Jeremy Martin, CEO of Horizonte commented, "I am pleased that following approval from shareholders we will now close the £9 million fundraise. The fundraise has demonstrated strong support from both new and existing UK and Canadian institutional investors. The proceeds combined with the existing cash position ensure that we have a robust balance sheet as we start the Feasibility Study on the Araguaia project which we are developing as a Tier 1 nickel project in Brazil.

"Activity is currently underway on the next phase of the permitting to obtain the Installation Licence, as well as a number of the work streams that will link into the Feasibility Study. The main contracts are due to be awarded in Q1 2017 as we work to advance the Project through the Feasibility Stage during the course of 2017. We look forward to keeping shareholders updated with the Company's development."
