effectively a 50% discount to the current price in order to raise only $250k, you tell me what you think of that price. drilling of just 2 holes wont be the whole story, there is having to be more drilling required and hence more funding required at some point, this type of dilution you can see where it is heading for existing shareholders. that $250k diluted about 3.5% of the shares on issue. I suggest when they spin it out as an IPO there is going to be another raise done and if as some have said (which is common) a reconstruction via share split then existing holders may find themselves diluted to the advantage of the new shareholders.
great for those who got it the new shares, however, if people are only willing to put money in at $0.008 price what does the street think of the current market cap?
In my experience with equity raising it means a dip lower first.
