Silver Mines (ASX:SVL) has launched a two-tranche share placement aiming to raise gross proceeds of $70 million to advance its core development and acquisition targets.
The proposed offer price of $0.145 per share reflects a 10.0% discount compared to the stock's five-day volume-weighted average price up to Sept. 18.
"We are pleased to launch this placement as we continue to advance the Bowdens Silver Project towards development," said Silver Mines Managing Director Jo Battershill.

Following the announcement, the Silver Mines share price was unchanged at $0.18.
The company intends to use the capital to progress engineering studies for the Bowdens Silver Project and cover cash consideration for the acquisition of the Fitzroy Royalty and Asia Metals Royalty.
Additionally, funds will support ongoing land access agreements in Australia alongside exploration across the Kramer Hills Project and Calico North Project in the United States.
