pleased to announce that it has received binding commitments from
institutional and sophisticated investors to raise gross proceeds of

    mineralisation at the Youanmi Gold Project; and
  2. Implement its exploration plans at the Company’s 100%
    owned Fisher East Nickel Project and the recently

price and a 15.8% discount to the 15-day VWAP of Rox’s shares.
With this placement the Company welcomes several new institutional
investors to its share register, providing a strong endorsement for the
Company’s growth strategy in both gold and nickel.
