Vast Resources said net cash raised from the fundraise will be used for the "primary beneficiation" of diamond parcels, which was expected to "significantly enhance their value", providing financial support. Additionally, funds raised will be used for general working capital.

The AIM-listed group added that the placing, which will close in two tranches, was undertaken by its joint broker, Axis Capital Markets.

As of 0915 BST, Vast Resources shares were down 14.63% at 0.38p.
