Bellzone Mining Plc (“Bellzone” or the “Company”), an iron ore exploration and development company, with 100% owned assets in Guinea, West Africa, is seeking to raise approximately US$100 million and admit to trading on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange with ticker “BZM”, this spring. Canaccord Adams Limited is acting as Bellzone’s Nominated Advisor, joint broker and joint bookrunner and Renaissance Capital Limited is acting as joint broker and joint bookrunner.
Bellzone aims to become a significant iron ore producer and intends to develop a 50 mtpa iron ore production. The Company has to date developed and defined a maiden inferred magnetite JORC resource of 2.4 billion tonnes along a 4.3 km section of a 19 km long magnetite strike known as Kalia I and estimates, subject to the results of further drilling, that Kalia I together with the 20 km long magnetite strike known as Kalia II, have the potential to host more than 13 billion tonnes of magnetite ore. In addition, Bellzone also estimates that there is a 2.9 billion tonne direct shipping ore cap at Kalia, which can be used to generate early cash flow.
The Company intends to utilise funds raised at admission to accelerate its drilling programme, to upgrade and achieve additional JORC resource classification, complete a Bankable Feasibility Study and satisfy general working capital requirements.
