Nickel explorer Chalice Mining was in a trading halt on Thursday, and quietly putting together a $60 million private placement to accelerate exploration in the second-half.
Sources said Chalice broker Bells Potter had offered the shares to a small group of investors at $7.30 a pop, a small discount to the $7.74 last close. The deal size represents less than three per cent of total shares on issue.
