TORONTO, June 8, 2012 /CNW/ - Mandalay Resources Corporation ("Mandalay" or the "Company") (TSX: MND, MND.WT) announced today the closing of a one year, secured revolving credit facility (the "Facility") in the amount of US$20 million and the repayment of the existing Sprott loan facility. The Facility is priced at LIBOR + 3.25%. The Facility was arranged by BMO Capital Markets, and the Facility will be used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of permitted acquisitions.
Brad Mills, Chief Executive Officer of Mandalay, commented: "The Company is now essentially debt free net of existing cash resources. The Sprott loan of C$10 million was repaid in full on June 8, 2012 utilizing $5 million in Company cash and $5 million from the new Facility. Strong cash flow in the second quarter as a result of significantly higher shipments from both Cerro Bayo and Costerfield has enabled us to accelerate repayment of the existing loan and enter into the new Facility. This Facility significantly lowers our future financing costs and gives us greater flexibility with respect to working capital management and acquisitions."
