We met both those criteria.” A leading financier to the global resource sector, Queen’s Road Capital Investment makes investments in privately held and publicly traded resource companies and acquires and holds securities for both long-term capital appreciation and short-term gains, says the company. The financing consists of a US$15 million private placement (11.6 million common shares at C$1.80 per share) and US$15 million in unsecured convertible debentures. The debentures carry a 7.5% coupon over a five-year term and can be converted into about 8.9 million common shares at C$2.34 per share. Continue reading at www.NorthernMiner.com.
