Red Dirt Metals (RDT) has entered a trading halt ahead of an upcoming capital raise.

So far, it is not known how much the company is planning to raise or where it will spend the money.

The halt means Red Dirt shares will be paused until Tuesday, February 22, or when further details about the raise is released to the market.

Earlier this month, the company reported encouraging results from its first batch of lithium hits at its Mt Ida Project.
