Money of Mine Brokers, Bankers and Miners; the World of Mining Corporate Finance
We’ve opted for a different style of episode today diving into the world of mining corporate finance with Ally GC, getting into some 101 on all the different concepts and lingo.
We discuss how mining companies decide on their optimum project financing mix, how capital raises are priced, what happens on non-deal roadshows, what the hell a VWAP is and heaps more.
Stay tuned for Matty’s underground mining 101…
