Resource mezzanine finance

About resource mezzanine finance

Financing needs for the development or acquisition of a mining project sometimes do not meet normal banking risk criteria. This can be due to the size of the loan required or the technical or other risks associated with the project. Resource mezzanine finance can be an alternative to equity finance. While types of resource mezzanine finance can vary, there is an increased level of risk so the return often takes the form of a higher interest rate, an option to convert to equity or a royalty.
