Anglesey Mining Plc
("Anglesey Mining", "Anglesey", the "Company" or the "Group") (AIM:AYM)
Result of Placing
Anglesey Mining Plc (AIM:AYM) is pleased to announce that, further to its
announcement of 7 a.m. (London time) on 25 July 2023, it has successfully
completed and closed the Placing.
The Placing raised, in aggregate, gross proceeds of £0.5m. The Placing comprises
the placing of 33,333,329 new Ordinary Shares (the "Placing Shares") with
certain institutional and other investors at a price of 1.5 pence per share (the
"Issue Price"), thereby raising £0.5m gross proceeds. The Placing Shares were
accompanied by one Investor Warrant, as detailed in the announcement of earlier
today.
The Fundraising is conditional only on Admission.
The net proceeds of the Placing will be applied to commence drilling of the
Northern Copper Zone at Parys Mountain, continuing to advance the permitting and
Environmental Impact and Social Assessment of Parys Mountain, commence baseline
studies for the Grängesberg Iron Ore Mine; and general working capital purposes.
Juno Participation
In accordance with the terms of the restructured working capital facility with
Juno Limited announced on 16 May 2022, Juno Limited converted further debt to
equity by way of a direct subscription of Subscription Shares alongside the
Placing capped at pro-rata ownership level. As a result of the announced Placing
and Subscription, the debt due to Juno will be reduced from £3,518,000 million
to £3,413,750 million. Juno Limited therefore subscribed for 6,949,999
Subscription Shares and received warrants over 3,474,999 new Ordinary Shares at
the same Placing Price and exercise price as the other Placees. Subsequent to
completion of the Placing and Subscription and assuming no exercise of its
Investor Warrants, Juno's shareholding in Anglesey is expected to be c.20.5% per
cent.
Related Party Transaction
As Juno is a substantial shareholder in the Company, this transaction is
considered to be a related party transaction under the AIM Rules for Companies.
The Directors of the Company, excluding Danesh Varma, having consulted with the
Company's Nominated Adviser, J&E Davy, consider that the terms of the
transaction are fair and reasonable insofar as shareholders are concerned.
Admission and Total Voting Rights
Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for admission of the New
Ordinary Shares to trading on AIM. It is expected that admission will become
effective and dealings in the New Ordinary Shares commence on AIM at 8.00 a.m.
on 31 July 2023 (or such later date as may be agreed between the Company and the
Bookrunner, but no later than 28 August 2023).
The New Ordinary Shares will be issued fully paid and will rank pari passu in
all respects with the Company's existing Ordinary Shares.
Following Admission, the total number of Ordinary Shares in the capital of the
Company in issue will be 420,093,017 with voting rights. This figure may be used
by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will
determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their
interest in, the Company's share capital pursuant to (i) the Company's Articles,
(ii) the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency
Rules and/or (iii) the AIM Rules for Companies issued by the London Stock
Exchange plc as amended from time to time.
Capitalised terms used but not otherwise defined in this announcement shall have
the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Company's announcement made at 7.00
am on 25 July 2023, unless the context requires otherwise.
Jo Battershill, CEO, comments: "The Board of Anglesey is very pleased to have
concluded this follow-on placement, which will provide additional balance sheet
strength to support the ongoing development activities at both Parys Mountain
and Grängesberg. The drilling of the Northern Copper Zone is expected to
commence in early September and has been designed to infill the upper levels
with the aim of converting inferred resources into the higher confidence
Indicated category. We look forward to updating the market on this programme as
it progresses. "

Information to Distributors
Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements contained within:
(a) EU Directive 2014/65/EU on markets in financial instruments, as amended
("MiFID II"); (b) Articles 9 and 10 of Commission Delegated Directive (EU)
2017/593 supplementing MiFID II; and (c) local implementing measures (together,
the "MiFID II Product Governance Requirements"), and disclaiming all and any
liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any
"manufacturer" (for the purposes of the MiFID II Product Governance
Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the Placing Shares have
been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that such
securities are: (i) compatible with an end target market of retail investors and
investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible
counterparties, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) eligible for distribution
through all distribution channels as are permitted by MiFID II (the "Target
Market Assessment"). Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, distributors
should note that: the price of the Placing Shares may decline and investors
could lose all or part of their investment; the Placing Shares offer no
guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in the Placing
Shares is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or
capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate
financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of
such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any
losses that may result therefrom. The Target Market Assessment is without
prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling
restrictions in relation to the Placing. Furthermore, it is noted that,
notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, the Joint Bookrunners will only
procure investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible
counterparties.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does not constitute:
(a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of MiFID
II; or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in,
or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to the Placing
Shares.
Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment
in respect of the Placing Shares and determining appropriate distribution
channels.
