Aura Energy (ASX:AEE) announced that MMCAP International SPC and other strategic investors will provide CAD$10 million in funding for a 19.7% stake in its Swedish Häggån Polymetallic Project, valuing the asset at CAD$50 million.
Under a binding agreement, Aura will transfer 100% of the Häggån Project to unlisted Canadian company SIU Metals, receiving shares in the company in return.
Post-transaction, Aura will retain a 78.7% stake in SIU Metals, while the strategic investors will hold 19.7%.
