Lucapa Diamond Secures US$15-million Financing Facility for Mothae Project
Lucapa Diamond Company Ltd. (ASX:LOM) announced that it has secured a US$15-million financing facility for the development of Phase 1 of its Mothae kimberlite diamond project in Lesotho.
Lucapa Diamond Company Ltd. (ASX:LOM) announced that it has secured a US$15-million financing facility for the development of Phase 1 of its Mothae kimberlite diamond project in Lesotho.
As quoted in the press release:
The secured US$15 million three-year debt facility has been arranged with private Singaporean company Equigold Pte Ltd (“Equigold”). It is repayable in eight quarterly payments commencing December 2018, by when Lucapa expects Mothae to be in steady state production under its Phase 1 development plan. The Equigold facility carries an annual interest rate of 13% and other fees customary to a facility of this nature.
The facility includes a provision for Equigold, at their election, to convert the last two scheduled quarterly payments (totalling US$3.75 million) into ordinary shares in Lucapa at the lowest one-day VWAP in the 15 days preceding the conversion request.
Stephen Wetherall, managing director of Lucapa, commented:
[T]he US$15 million financing facility enables Lucapa to meet one of its key strategic objectives of growing diamond production in the large and premium-value sector – a segment of the global market where sales and pricing has remained robust.
This facility is a significant result for Lucapa and its shareholders. It ensures that the Company, together with the Government of Lesotho, will bring Mothae on stream in 2018, adding a second cash producing asset and high-value producing mine to the group that will complement the top-quality diamond production from Lulo.
