The funding from Teybridge will be deployed in the acquisition and development of Bauba Resources’ Kookfontein platinum/ chrome mine.
SINGAPORE, July 21, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ — Singapore-based physical commodities trading outfit, Pelagic Resources (“Pelagic”) is pleased to announce that it has closed its 4th Credit transaction with Teybridge Capital (“Teybridge”) for $5million. Prior credit facilities with Teybridge were concluded in December 2020 ($10 million), July 2020 ($5 million) and in April 2020 ($5 million), bringing the total loan facility received from Teybridge to $20 million.
The credit facility offered by Teybridge will assist Pelagic with the development of its Kookfontein chrome project in which it holds a 23% stake. The interest in the mine was concluded earlier this year when Pelagic acquired 23% of parent company Bauba Resources for ZAR35 million. The Kookfontein chrome mine is seen as a transformative investment for the company as it provides Pelagic with an evergreen chrome ore supply contract and increases Pelagic’s chrome ore capacity three-fold by volume.
When asked what qualities Teybridge saw in the Pelagic group that made them want to partner with the trading firm, Eric Finaughty, director of Teybridge had this to say:
‘Tom Baring runs a sound business with an excellent management and operations team. Has a keen understanding of a funder’s credit risk concerns and “partners” with the funder. We like Pelagic’s strategy, encouraged by the milestones achieved to date and are proud to be part of its growth and success.’
