#AYM Anglesey Mining PLC – Placing and Subscription to raise approximately £680,000 and Appointment of AlbR Capital as Joint Corporate Broker

Anglesey Mining plc (AIM:AYM), the minerals exploration and development company, is pleased to announce that AlbR Capital Limited has conditionally raised aggregate gross proceeds of approximately £680,000, by means of a placing (the “ Placing ”) of 10,491,663 new ordinary shares of nominal value £0.01 (“ Ordinary Shares ”) each in the capital of the Company (the “ Placing Shares ”), to certain institutional and other investors raising gross proceeds of approximately £630,000, and a direct subscription of 833,333 new Ordinary Shares (the “ Subscription Shares ”), to raise approximately £50,000 (the “ Subscription ”) (together the “ Fundraising ”), in each case     at a price of £0.06 (6 pence) per share (the “ Issue Price ”).

 

Participants in the Fundraising will receive 1 warrant for every new Ordinary Share subscribed for, exercisable at £0.07 (7 pence) per share for a period of 12 months from date of grant (the ” Warrants “). If exercised in full, the exercise of the Warrants would provide an additional £792,749.72 of gross proceeds to the Company.

 

The Subscription is being supported by the Company’s largest shareholder, Energold Minerals Inc. (“ Energold ”), which will invest £49,999.98 at the Issue Price. Upon completion of the Fundraising, Energold will be interested in 14,951,233 ordinary shares of nominal value £0.01 each (“ Ordinary Shares ”), representing approximately 23.1% of the enlarged issued share capital.

 

The Fundraising is being undertaken by AlbR Capital Limited (” AlbR “). The Company is also pleased to announce that AlbR has been formally appointed as joint Corporate Broker, with immediate effect.

 

The appointment of AlbR follows   the £350,000 investment by   Energold and the recent restructuring of the Company’s balance sheet, eliminating approximately £4 million in debt, as further described in the announcement of   5 December 2025.

 

Anglesey is now fully focused on advancing an exploration and development strategy for its 100%-owned Parys Mountain copper-zinc-lead-gold-silver project (see “ Use of Proceeds ” below).

 

Pursuant to the engagement of AlbR, 400,000 new Ordinary Shares will be issued to AlbR in respect of its annual retainer for the next 12 months (“ Retainer Shares ”). The Retainer Shares will be issued   based on the closing mid-price on Friday, 6 March 2026 of £0.075 (7.5 pence) per Ordinary Share.

 

Anglesey Mining CEO, Rob   Marsden,   commented :   “We are pleased to welcome   AlbR, as we seek   to expand the Company profile   and broaden the Company’s shareholder base.   AlbR   has   already   been   assisting   the   Company   and we look forward to working with them   as we continue to advance Parys Mountain.”    

 

Use of Proceeds

The net proceeds of the Fundraising are expected to be applied towards:

 

  • £250,000: initiation of dewatering the existing shaft to facilitate exploration efforts, advance the pumped energy storage project and support eventual mine development.
  • £50,000: analysis of existing core samples from previous drilling campaigns which have not, thus far, been incorporated into resource models.
  • £100,000: for ongoing exploration to include aero-geophysics and ground follow up.
  • £200,000: for G&A/Working Capital.

 

The actual use of proceeds may vary at the Company’s discretion based on the results of work undertaken or other factors.

 

Further Details of the Fundraising and Warrants

The Company has, conditional on Admission of the Placing Shares and Subscription Shares, raised £679,499.76 (before expenses) through the Placing and Subscription with institutional and other investors for a total of, in aggregate, 11,324,996 new Placing Shares and Subscription Shares at 6 pence per share. The Placing Shares and Subscription Shares will be issued on a non-pre-emptive basis pursuant to the authorities granted to the Board at the Company’s annual general meeting held in February.

 

Jim Williams, non-executive director of the Company, is participating in the Placing for an aggregate subscription of £9,999.96 for 166,666 Placing Shares.

 

The Placing Shares, Subscription and Retainer Shares, when issued and fully paid, will rank   pari passu   in all respects with the existing Ordinary Shares in issue and therefore will rank equally for all dividends or other distributions declared, made or paid after the issue of the new Ordinary Shares.

 

The Issue Price represents a discount of approximately 20 per cent to the closing middle market price of 7.5 pence per Ordinary Share on 6 March 2026, being the latest business day prior to the announcement of the Fundraising.

 

Participants in the Fundraising will be issued with one Warrant for each new Ordinary Share subscribed for, resulting in the issue of 11,324,996 Warrants. The Warrants will be exercisable at a price of 7 pence for a period of 12 months from the date of issue. The Warrants will not be transferable and will not be traded on an exchange.

 

Related Party Transaction

 

Energold has agreed to subscribe, in aggregate, for 833,333 Subscription Shares at the Issue Price and will receive 833,333 Warrants, on the same terms and conditions as other participating investors. Energold is a related party for the purposes of Rule 13 of the AIM Rules by virtue of being a substantial shareholder in Anglesey, and its participation in the Fundraising constitutes a related party transaction (as defined by the AIM Rules).

 

The Directors of Anglesey, save for Brendan Cahill (a representative of Energold), consider, having consulted with the Company’s nominated adviser, that the terms of Energold’s participation in the Fundraising are fair and reasonable insofar as the shareholders of the Company are concerned.

 

Admission to Trading

Application will be made for the 10,491,663 Placing Shares, 833,333 Subscription Shares and the 400,000 Retainer Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM (” Admission “). Admission is expected to occur at 8.00 a.m. on or around 13 March 2026.

 

Total Voting Rights

Following Admission, the Company’s enlarged issued share capital will comprise 64,814,303 Ordinary Shares. The Company holds no shares in treasury. This figure may be used by shareholders for the purposes of the FCA’s Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

Mendell Helium announced on 27 June 2024 that it has entered into an option agreement to acquire the entire issued share capital of M3 Helium through the issue of 57,611,552 new ordinary shares in Mendell Helium to M3 Helium’s shareholders. The exercise of the option will constitute a reverse takeover pursuant to AQSE Rule 3.6 of the Access Rule Book and is subject to, inter alia, publication of an admission document.

 

M3 Helium’s flagship well, Rost 1-26, is in Fort Dodge, just to the east of Dodge City, Kansas.  It has been tested as containing 5.1% helium composition and a drill stem test yielded a maximum flow rate of approximately 2,900 Mcf per day.  M3 Helium owns a mobile Pressure Swing Adsorption production plant which has been installed on site and will be used to purify the produced helium.  The plant is capable of processing up to 800 Mcf per day of raw gas and purifying it up to 99.999% helium although management believes on-site purification to around 75% will be more practical.

 

Water removed from Rost 1-26 is delivered to Brobee, a nearby disposal well that has been permitted at 5,000 barrels of water per day at 1,200 psi.

 

Production at Rost 1-26 commenced in early November 2025 and the most recently recorded flow rate in December 2025 was 249.6 Mcf per day equating to approximately $1.4 million of helium per year.

 

M3 Helium also has interests in five producing wells (Peyton, Smith, Nilson, Bearman and Demmit) within the Hugoton gas field in South-Western Kansas, one of the largest natural gas fields in North America.  Significantly these wells are in the proximity of a gathering network and the Jayhawk gas processing plant meaning that producing wells are all tied into the infrastructure.

 

M3 Helium is also developing a Bitcoin mining operation in Nebraska where it has taken a lease of land prospective for biogenic methane and has drilled a pilot well (Jasper).  It is onboarded for custody with Bitgo Inc. and its Bitcoin treasury management policy is available at https://mendellhelium.com/bitcoin-treasury.

Total voting rights

Therefore, the Company’s total number of ordinary shares in issue and voting rights will be 592,651,018 and this figure may be used by shareholders from Admission 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 under the FCA’s Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

#MDH Mendell Helium PLC – Extension of Broker Option Subscription

Mendell Helium announces that, further to its announcement of 17 November 2025 regarding the Subscription, Issue of Equity and Warrants (the “November Subscription Announcement”), it has received expressions of interest from investors to participate in the broker option (the “Broker Option”).  To provide time for these investors to finalise their commitments, the Company has agreed with AlbR Capital Limited (“AlbR”) to extend the period during which the Broker Option may be exercised.  If all of the proposed investors participate then the Broker Option is expected to be exercised in full.  Pending conclusion of these discussions, Mendell Helium also announces that it has received a further subscription for new ordinary shares on the same terms as the Subscription described in that announcement from an existing shareholder. 

As announced on 27 June 2024, the Company has an option (the “Option”) to acquire M3 Helium, a producer of helium which is based in Kansas and holds an interest in six producing wells.  There is no certainty that the Company’s option to acquire M3 Helium will be exercised, nor that the enlarged group will successfully complete a re-admission. As announced on 1 December 2025, the Company and M3 Helium have agreed to extend the date on which the Option should be exercised to 28 February 2026. 

Extension of Broker Option

As set out in the November Subscription Announcement, the Company granted AlbR, the Broker Option over up to 10,000,000 new ordinary shares (the “Broker Option Shares”), exercisable at the Issue Price and originally exercisable up to 4.30 p.m. (UK time) on 24 November 2025.

The Company has agreed with AlbR that the latest time and date for the exercise of the Broker Option will be extended and that the Broker Option will be exercisable, at AlbR’s discretion (following consultation with the Company), on one or more occasions up to 4.30 p.m. (UK time) on 8 December 2025.

All other terms of the Broker Option remain unchanged.

Additional Subscription

Pursuant to the terms of the Subscription set out in the November Subscription Announcement, the Company has raised approximately an additional £600 through the issue of 20,000 new ordinary shares of 1 pence each in the Company (“Ordinary Shares”) at an issue price of 3 pence per new Ordinary Share (the “Issue Price”) (the “Additional Subscription”).

The Additional Subscription, consistent with the Subscription, has been carried out directly by the Company without the payment of commissions.

As with the Subscription described in the November Subscription Announcement, for every two new Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the Additional Subscription, investors will receive:

·      one warrant to subscribe for an additional new ordinary share in the Company at an exercise price of 4.5 pence per share; and

·      one warrant to subscribe for an additional new ordinary share in the Company at an exercise price of 6 pence per share,

each exercisable within two years of Admission of the relevant Ordinary Shares. In aggregate, 20,000 additional warrants will be issued pursuant to the Additional Subscription on this basis.

#HREE Harena Resources PLC – Update in relation to Fundraising

Harena Resources Plc (LSE: HREE), the rare earths company focused on the Ampasindava ionic clay rare earth project in Madagascar (the “Ampasindava Project“), is pleased to announce that the Company has raised further gross proceeds of approximately £0.18 million at the Issue Price through a oversubscribed Subscription of 12,100,000 new Ordinary Shares (the “Subscription Shares“) with certain institutional and professional investors, conditional on Admission (as defined below).

 

The Subscription has been undertaken at the Issue Price of 1.5 pence per new Ordinary Share and on the same terms as the Placing announced by the Company on 4 August 2025 (the “Fundraising Announcement“). In total the Placing and the Subscription has raised gross proceeds of approximately £1.23 million.

 

It is intended that the net proceeds of the Subscription will be deployed by the Company for the same purposes as that of the Placing as detailed in the Company’s announcement on 31 July 2025.

 

Admission

 

Applications have been made: (i) to the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (the “FCA”) for the admission of the 12,100,000  Subscription Shares to trading on the equity shares (transition) category of the Official List of the FCA; and (ii) to trading on the London Stock Exchange for the admission of the 12,100,000 Subscription Shares to trading on its main market for listed securities (together, “Admission”). Admission is expected to take place on 8.00 a.m. on or around 18 August 2025.

 

Total voting rights

 

Immediately following Admission, the Company will have 495,984,352 ordinary shares of 0.5 pence each in issue, each with one voting right. There are no shares held in treasury. Therefore, the Company’s total number of ordinary shares in issue and voting rights will be 495,984,352 and this figure may be used by shareholders from Admission 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 under the FCA’s Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

 

Warrants

 

In line with the Company’s announcement on 31 July 2025, the Company has conditionally agreed to issue a further 5,000,000 Fee Warrants to Ivan Murphy and Paul Richards for their services in respect of the Subscription. The Fee Warrants are exercisable at 3 pence for a period of five years from the date of Admission. The Fee Warrants are not subject to any vesting conditions.

Overview of M3 Helium

 

Mendell Helium announced on 27 June 2024 that it has entered into an option agreement to acquire the entire issued share capital of M3 Helium through the issue of 57,611,552 new ordinary shares in Mendell Helium to M3 Helium’s shareholders.  The exercise of the option will constitute a reverse takeover pursuant to AQSE Rule 3.6 of the Access Rule Book and is subject to, inter alia, publication of an admission document.

 

M3 Helium has interests in ten wells in South-Western Kansas of which five (Peyton, Smith, Nilson, Bearman and Demmit) are in production.  Eight of the company’s wells are within the Hugoton gas field, one of the largest natural gas fields in North America.  Significantly these wells are in the proximity of a gathering network and the Jayhawk gas processing plant meaning that producing wells can quickly be tied into the infrastructure.

 

The ninth well, Rost, is in Fort Dodge, just to the east of Dodge City, Kansas.  It was tested in July 2024 as containing 5.1% helium composition and a previous drill stem test yielded a maximum flow rate of approximately 2,900 Mcf per day.  M3 Helium owns a mobile Pressure Swing Adsorption production plant which has been installed on site and will be used to purify the produced helium.  The plant is capable of processing up to 800 Mcf per day of raw gas and purifying it up to 99.999% helium.

 

The tenth well, Brobee, is a disposal well that has been tested at over 4,500 barrels of water per day at 640 psi.

#BRES Blencowe Resources PLC – Subscription & Conditional Subscription – Replace

New Investor

The Company is pleased to report it has raised US$500,000 (£392,350) at 5 pence per share with a specialist African-based investor (“African Investor”) through the issue of 7,847,000 new ordinary shares. The investor has undertaken extensive due diligence over the last four months and the current investment is viewed as an initial entry into the project ahead of anticipated further investment as required. The shares have been issued to the African Investor under the Company’s existing headroom.

 

Additional Investor and the Issue of a Prospectus

In addition, the Company has conditionally raised a further £2,500,000 at 5 pence resulting in the issue of 50,000,000 new ordinary shares to an additional strategic investor (“Strategic Investor”). The Company is required to publish a prospectus on the basis that it will be issuing more than 20% of its issued share capital in a 12-month period. The Company and its advisers are in advanced stages of finalising the prospectus. The Company anticipates publishing the prospectus this month and will update shareholders prior to its publication.

 

Conditional Subscription

The Strategic Investor has received investment committee approval and made a firm commitment to subscribe. The subscription by the Strategic Investor is subject to the Company issuing the prospectus, a general meeting by the Company to approve certain resolutions relating to the issue of new ordinary shares, settlement of the investment and the issue and allotment of the new ordinary shares.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, the subscription by the African Investor is firm and not contingent on any investment by the Strategic Investor. The subscription funds have been received from the African Investor and the Company shall apply for the new ordinary shares to commence trading.

 

Admission

An application has been made for 7,847,000 new ordinary shares to be admitted to trading on the official list and the London Stock Exchange from 8.00 a.m. on Monday 12 February 2024 (“Admission”). 

In accordance with the FCA’s Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules, the Company confirms that following Admission, the Company’s enlarged issued ordinary share capital will comprise 217,226,950 Ordinary Shares. The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in Treasury. Therefore, following Admission, the above figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations to determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company, under the FCA’s Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

Mike Ralston, CEO of Blencowe Resources, commented:

I am pleased to provide this positive update with respect to our fundraising initiatives. As previously reported, we have already received US$2,000,000 in grant funding from the US International Development Finance Corporation (“DFC”) out of their approved US$5,000,000 grant. A further US$1,000,000 is expected from the DFC in the near term as the next milestones have been met.

We now welcome a new specialist African investor to the register following the fundraise of  US$500,000 at 5 pence, which represents a healthy premium to the current market price and underlines their decision to invest for the long term after an extensive due diligence exercise. We reasonably believe that they will look to invest further as our relationship is built.

Moreover, we are now in the closing stages of a further subscription of £2.5m at 5 pence from another Strategic Investor and we are busily working with our advisers to finalise and issue the prospectus.

Both these investments at 5p underline the value proposition offered by Blencowe and will provide us with a good runway to complete the DFS this year. We are making rapid progress in de-risking the Orom-Cross project, especially following the recent letter of interest received from the DFC to provide a funding solution for the build and development of Orom-Cross. We will continue to work closely with the DFC as we complete the DFS to ensure construction can commence at Orom-Cross in a timely fashion.

I believe it is testament of the quality of the Orom-Cross project that we have been able secure funding partners like this at a time when the junior mining sector continues to face significant difficulties with respect to sourcing capital. We are hoping to deliver an NPV in the DFS significantly higher than the post-tax NPV of US$482M achieved in the Pre-Feasibility Study and will keep shareholders updated on our progress.’

Background

Orom-Cross Graphite Project

Orom-Cross is a potential world class graphite project both by size and end-product quality, with a high component of more valuable larger coarse flakes within the deposit.

A 21-year Mining Licence for the project was issued by the Ugandan Government in 2019 following extensive historical work on the deposit.  Blencowe completed a successful Pre-Feasibility Study on the Project in July 2022 and is now within the Definitive Feasibility Study phase as it drives towards first production.

Orom-Cross presents as a large, shallow open-pitable deposit, with an initial JORC Indicated & Inferred Mineral Resource of 24.5Mt @ 6.0% TGC (Total Graphite Content). This Resource has been defined from only ~2% of the total tenement area which presents considerable upside potential ahead.  Development of the resource is expected to benefit from a low strip ratio and free dig operations together with abundant inexpensive hydro-electric power off the national grid, thereby ensuring low operating costs.  With all major infrastructure available at or near to site the capital costs will also be relatively low in comparison to most graphite peers.
