Core Lithium Secures Second Tranche of Finniss Funding as Project Ramps Up

An update from Core Lithium Ltd ( (AU:CXO) ) is now available.

Core Lithium has completed the second tranche of its A$120 million equity raising to fund the Finniss Lithium Project, issuing about 320 million new shares to secure roughly A$67 million before costs. Shareholders also approved the second tranche of US$44 million in convertible notes to Glencore and InfraVia, with final completion subject to Foreign Investment Review Board approval.

Management says Core has now received around A$157 million net from the funding package, with a further US$69 million expected from the remaining convertible notes and senior debt once conditions are met. Together with recent sales of concentrate stockpiles and lithium fines, the company reports a strong liquidity position as Finniss operations ramp up, including interim open-pit mining at Grants, advancing box cut works at BP33, and the imminent award of an underground mining contract for BP33.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:CXO) stock is a Buy with a A$0.40 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Core Lithium Ltd stock, see the AU:CXO Stock Forecast page.
