The company received the interest after soliciting proposals from a group of international financiers, including the Brazilian National Development Bank from which it received a letter of intent, per the filing.
Centaurus Metals is in the process short-listing preferred financiers ahead of planned site visits and due diligence. The company said it plans to name a preferred financier or syndicate in the third quarter to coincide with a final investment decision on the project.
Centaurus shares gained nearly 1% in recent Monday trading.
