Greatland Gold PLC, (AIM: GGP). believes that investment from Tribeca Investment Partners in the Havieron project is a “tremendous endorsement”.

The Chief Executive Officer was somewhat disappointed by the inability of retail investors to be included in the fundraising.
The UK prospectus law states that firms cannot offer more than £6,7m (Euro 8m) equity in a 12-month period. This was the case last October.
Tribeca, an Australian fund manager, has committed the US $13.8m of new cash. It also agreed to provide US$27.6m in additional funding for Havieron’s development costs.
