MT Newswires Live05-20 12:53

Sinomine Resource Group (SHE:002738) plans to raise up to 5.2 billion yuan through a private share placement to fund projects in Africa, according to a Wednesday disclosure on the Shenzhen bourse.

From the proceeds, the Chinese mining company will allot 1.60 billion yuan for a lithium sulfate mine in Zimbabwe that will produce 100,000 tons per year, while 1.70 billion yuan will be set aside for Zambia's Kitumba copper mine.

The total investment for the Kitumba mine was revised upwards to $610.2 million from $562.9 million due to increased pre-production stripping costs.

Meanwhile, 450 million yuan from the proceeds will be used for a cesium and rubidium mine in China's Jiangxi Province, which will produce 2,000 tons per year.

The company's shares fell by less than 2% during the midday trade.
