Capital Metals Plc

("Capital Metals", the "Company" or the "Group") (AIM:CMET)

Result of Placing

Capital Metals Plc (AIM:CMET) is pleased to announce that, further to its announcement at 7.00 a.m. (London time) today, it has successfully completed and closed the oversubscribed Placing.

The Placing has raised, in aggregate, gross proceeds of GBP1,250,000 through the placing of 16,666,666 Ordinary Shares (the "Placing Shares"), conditional on Admission, to certain institutional and other investors at a price of 7.5 pence per share (the "Placing Price").

In addition, and conditional upon Admission, the Company will issue 278,333 warrants to W H Ireland Limited and 555,000 warrants to Tavira Securities Limited exercisable at the Placing Price at any time in the three years following Admission.

The net proceeds of the Placing, being GBP1,147,500, will be applied towards:

   --    Drilling and subsequent Resource update 
   --    Engineering studies and long lead item deposits 
   --    Permitting, environmental and community programmes 
   --    Offtake and financing costs 
   --    Working Capital 

Michael Frayne, CEO, comments :

"We delivered a very important milestone in 2021 in the approval of the Environmental Impact Assessment. Importantly we believe the funding raised today with the existing cash on hand will be sufficient to deliver the mining license and subsequently finalise our ongoing offtake and finance discussions which we expect will fund the bulk of any capital requirements to first production.

With the completion of the Development Study due this quarter and further drilling planned as a result of this fundraising, we believe it is a very exciting time for the Company.

As mineral sands prices continue to strengthen the Company is in a good position to generate sustained long-term growth. We welcome new shareholders to the register, from this oversubscribed placing, as we look forward to a busy and productive year. "
