By Sheri Kasprzak

New York, Oct. 31 - Nevsun Resources Ltd. settled its previously announced private placement, including the greenshoe, for C$30 million.

The company sold 10 million units, including the over-allotment option for 1.65 million units exercised by a syndicate of underwriters led by Haywood Securities Inc. and Canaccord Capital Corp.

The units consist of one share and one half-share warrant. The whole warrants are exercisable at C$4.00 each for three years.

The expiry of the warrants may be accelerated to 30 days if the company's stock trades above C$5.00 for more than 10 consecutive trading days.

The offering priced Oct. 18 as a C$25.05 million deal comprised of 8.35 million units.

Proceeds will be used for pre-production on the company's Bisha project in Eritrea and for general corporate purposes.
