(Sharecast News) - Xtract Resources' stock price dropped more than a tenth on Thursday after the Zambia-focused miner raised £2m through a share placing to fund the ongoing development of its Silverking copper and Amghas antimony projects.
The company said it had issued 333.3m shares at a price of 0.6p each to certain existing shareholders and new investors.
Xtract's executive chair Colin Bird was among the existing shareholders mentioned, subscribing for 3.33m shares for £20,000, representing a 0.39% stake in the company.

As a result of the placing being priced at a 14.29% discount to the closing price of 0.7p on Wednesday, Xtract's stock was down 11.4% at 0.62p by 1541 GMT.
