Renegade Exploration Limited (ASX: $RNX) has completed a $2.3 million placement, issuing approximately 230 million shares at $0.01 per share. The funds raised will be utilized to drill the high-impact Mongoose Deeps target at the Company's Cloncurry Project and continue other planned programs across its north-west Queensland acreage.
Drilling at Mongoose Deeps is firming for mid to late May as we complete the gravity program and final clearances. Ground magnetics will also assist with targeting for a 1,000m to 2000m RC program at Mongoose West to follow the Mongoose Deeps hole. We will also be doing an induced polarisation survey and possible gravity survey at the Tulloch prospect at the North Isa Project. On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank everybody who participated in the Placement and look forward to updating shareholders on our forward programs and results in the near future.
