WA1 Resources Ltd (ASX: WA1) has secured firm commitments for a placement raising AU$100 million through the issue of approximately 5.9 million new shares at AU$17 each, representing a 9.4% discount to the 5-day VWAP.

Following completion, WA1 will have around 74.2 million shares on issue and an estimated AU$168 million in cash, bolstering its ability to progress one of Australia’s key critical mineral projects.

Settlement is expected on 21 August, with trading of new shares from 22 August 2025.
