Syrah Resources (SYR) has raised a total of $250 million for its Vidalia and Balama projects.

At the Vidalia project, funds will be used for the costs of operations, expansion studies, and product development as well as the remaining estimated installed capital costs for the Vidalia Initial Expansion.

At the Balama project, the money will be utilised for tailings storage facility (TSF) expansion and sustaining capital costs, working capital, and general corporate purposes.

Some of the funds will also be used to cover the costs associated with the capital raise.

The retail component saw shares offered at a price of $1.48 on the basis of 1 share for every 5.9 held.

About 38 million new shares will be issued on March 7 with trading to commence on March 8.
