Sipa Resources will use the money for drilling and other exploration work to target lithium, base metals and gold mineralisation across the Barbwire Terrace, Skeleton Rocks, Murchison, Wolfe Basin and Warralong projects.

The company expects the placement shares will settle on Friday, November 11, and be issued on the following Monday.
