Avenira Successfully Completes
Approximately A$5 Million Placement
Avenira Limited (ASX: AEV) (“Avenira” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce that it has successfully
completed a placement of new fully paid ordinary shares to raise approximately A$5 million (before costs)
(the “Placement”).
Avenira received significant demand during the Placement bookbuild from high-quality existing and new
sophisticated and institutional investors located in Australia and internationally. In addition, all the
directors of Avenira are participating in the Placement, subject to shareholder approval.
Proceeds from the Placement will be used primarily to progress the development of Avenira’s Phosphate
Projects.
The Placement includes a strategic equity investment of A$2 million from Sichuan Hebang Biotechnology
Corporation Limited (SHSE: 603077) (“Hebang”). In addition, Avenira has entered into a non-binding
Strategic Cooperation and Offtake Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with Hebang. The MOU
establishes a framework for close cooperation between Avenira and Hebang for the development of the
Wonarah Project, covering the development of a yellow phosphorous plant, direct shipping of phosphate
ore and the development of renewable energy solutions.

placement. Commenting on their investment in Avenira, GEAR said:
“This strategic investment underscores our confidence in the ability of the Avenira team and the
commitment of the Northern Territory government to bring into production this significant phosphate
project critical to securing the world's food and energy security.”

The relationship with Hebang creates an opportunity for Avenira to accelerate the move
downstream to the production of yellow phosphorus, adding substantial value to Wonarah
resource and delivering a key element in the production of LFP. And GEAR brings substantial
development and operations experience in the mining and energy sectors across Asia and
Australia, that may be valuable to us as we embark on the development of Wonarah.
On behalf of Avenira’s board and management, I would like to take this opportunity to thank
shareholders for their long-standing support.”
