The "big idea" behind the placing is to raise enough money to fund a "bankable feasibility study" at Wildhorses's Mecsek Hills project in Southern Hungary.
Matt Swinney Chief Executive Officer of WHE said: "The coming year is an exciting one for WHE and having recently indicated the attractive economic and technical potential of supplying syngas as a gas feedstock for power stations as part of our Pre Feasibility Study for the Mecsek Hills Project, we are now in a position to immediately initiate the bankable feasibility study as well as to commence a programme to seek to identify and secure suitable strategic partners to fund its completion."
