Altura Mining Limited
The Perth-based Altura Mining Limited (ASX:AJM) explores and develops mineral properties in Australia and Indonesia. It has a market cap of AUD 265.64 million to date. With the close of the trading session on March 15th, 2019, the AJM stock price stood at AUD 0.155, up AUD 0.015, rising by 10.71% with ~9.78 million shares traded.
On the same day, the company announced a further increase in its Securities Purchase Plan (SPP) to $ 14 million upon receiving continued strong demand from its existing shareholders, which probably stems from an improved operational performance from Alturaâs flagship Lithium Mine located in the Pilbara region of Western Australia and culminated in a formal declaration of commercial production on March 13th, 2019. The increased amount is the maximum that Altura can raise and reflects a significant jump from $ 5.0 million declared on February 7th, 2019.
Altura Mining recently published its financial results for the half-year ended December 31st, 2018, whereby the operating loss after providing for income tax was posted at $ 10.98 million, upon the loss of $ 4.33 million recorded in the prior corresponding period (pcp) ended December 31st, 2017. The company also signed a new binding offtake agreement with GFL International Co., Limited for which the supply commenced in late 2018 at a minimum of 70k tonnes per annum from 2019 until the end of 2021. It also entails an option for further five-year extensions through to 2031. Besides, Altura reduced its current annual BOA commitment of 100k tpa to 50k tpa under another agreement reached with the existing BOA partner Shaanxi J&R Optimum Energy Co., Ltd.
