Australian gold explorer Krakatoa Resources (KTA) has entered a trading halt ahead of a capital raise announcement.
The company will remain in a trading halt until the earlier commencement of trading on Wednesday, October 14, unless the capital raise is announced earlier.
At this stage, details of the capital raise and what the funds will be used for are not yet known.
Three days ago, Krakatoa announced it had expanded its total landholding in the Gascoyne region of Western Australia to 1780 square kilometres. This followed new exploration licence applications submitted to expand its Mt Clere Project.
Mt Clere is prospective for rare earth elements, heavy mineral sands and intrusion-hosted nickel-copper-platinum group elements (PGEs).
The company stated that when the tenements have officially been granted and heritage agreements have been finalised, it would commence field work activities.
Whether or not the upcoming capital raise will support exploration efforts is not yet known.
Company shares last traded for 9.4 cents on Friday, October 9.
