Once the deal is completed, M&G will have an approximately 7.7% stake in Pensana’s enlarged issued share capital.

“We very much appreciate M&G’s continuing support as a major shareholder over the past 12 months,” commented Pensana Chairman Paul Atherley.

Atherley added that initial site works are underway at the company’s Saltend and Longonjo projects, with the additional investment taking it through to the main financing and the commencement of main construction at both projects during the first quarter of 2023.

“We look forward to delivering on the strong support from major shareholders and developing an independent and sustainable rare earth supply chain based in the UK to meet the burgeoning demand from automotive and wind turbine OEMs,” added Atherley.

Following the admission, Pensana issued share capital will consist of 255,180,873 ordinary shares.
