The structure of the Placement is as follows:
i. 7.58 million fully paid ordinary shares at $0.33 per share (“Placement Shares”), representing a 16.5% discount to both the last traded price of BRX shares on 14 June 2023 and the 15-day volume weighted average price; and
ii. 3.79 million free attaching options to subscribe for fully paid ordinary shares to be issued to investors on a one-for-two basis with an exercise price of $0.66 (being a 100% premium to the Placement price) and an expiry date that is three years from their date of issue (“Placement Options”).

Belararox Limited
Overview
Belararox Limited (ASX:BRX) is an Australian mineral exploration and development company focusing on its 100-percent-owned base and precious metals projects, targeting zinc, copper, gold, silver, nickel and lead resources, and aiming to be. The company aims to be a significant contributor to help meet the world’s growing demand for battery and renewable energy metals.
The Australian government is investing nearly AU$70 billion to boost renewable energy initiatives to meet its 2030 net-zero goals, which not only provides Belararox opportunity to access government funding but also allows it to benefit from a supportive policy regime.
Belara, the company’s flagship project in New South Wales, has an inferred resource estimate of 5 million tonnes of base and precious metals. Belararox also recently acquired a new asset in Argentina, which the company will soon begin exploration work on.
Belararox has completed Phase 1 drilling, confirmed historical mineralizations, and upgraded the JORC-compliant inferred resource estimate at its flagship Belara asset. The updated resource estimate resulted in a 100-percent increase in mineralized tonnes, a 65-percent increase in copper, and a newly defined 33,762 ounces of gold. The company is now moving towards Phase 2 drilling.
Bullabulling, the company’s secondary asset in Western Australia, is slated for lithium permatite exploration work to be completed by middle of 2023, with results being available by the end of the year.
In March 2023, Belararox entered a binding agreement to acquire 100 percent of the Toro-Malambo-Tambo (TMT) Base Metals and Cu-Au Porphyry project in Argentina (TMT Project) from Fomo Ventures. As part of the transaction, Belararox will enter into royalty deeds with Fomo shareholders with respect to a one-percent net smelter royalty. The TMT project is believed to be highly prospective for zinc, an in-demand clean energy metal used in processes to reduce carbon emissions.
Company Highlights
- Belararox Limited is a mineral exploration and development company focussing on its 100-percent-owned precious and base metal assets.
- The company’s focus on battery metals creates an opportunity to gain access to funding from the Australian government, which is investing in mining projects to reach its 2030 net-zero goals.

- The company’s secondary Bullabulling project in Western Australia has a planned drilling campaign for 2023.
- Belararox’s recently acquired Toro-Malambo-Tambo (TMT) project in Argentina includes untested assets. The company inspected and reviewed key mineralised sections of historical drill core stored in trays as part of its due diligence process in acquiring the project and has verified the presence of zinc mineralisation.
- An experienced board and management team leads the company towards exploring and developing its asset portfolio with expertise throughout the mining industry.
