Existing shareholder AustralianSuper demonstrates robust support with A$18.5 million investment
Directors and Management invest a further A$1.75 million cash, following up on the A$2.75 million co-invested with AustralianSuper in the July 2019 capital raise
Jervois received significant investment demand following release of the Idaho Cobalt Operations (“ICO”) Bankable Feasibility Study (“BFS”) and acquisition of the São Miguel Paulista (“SMP”) nickel-cobalt refinery in São Paulo, Brazil

Jervois Mining Limited (ASX: JRV) (TSX-V: JRV) (OTC: JRVMF) (“Jervois” or the “Company”) is pleased to announced it has successfully closed a A$45.0 million equity raising, prior to issuance costs (the “Placement”).

Of the 147,540,985 new ordinary shares, Jervois will issue 96,511,881 shares utilizing its existing capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 and issue 32,170,626 utilizing the Company’s existing capacity under Listing Rule 7.1A. This portion of the Placement will settle on 27 October 2020.
