We advised Central Puerto on a strategic investment in AbraSilver

The Energy and Natural Resources team at Mitrani Caballero assisted Central Puerto S.A. in completing its C$25.7 million investment in AbraSilver Resource Corp. Our partner, Matías Olcese, led the transaction.

With our support, Central Puerto, the largest private-sector power generator in Argentina, subscribed for newly issued common shares of AbraSilver. As a result, it increased its stake to 9.9% of the share capital of the exploration company, which is focused on developing its Diablillos project, a silver and gold deposit located in northern Argentina.

The transaction was carried out in parallel with an additional private placement subscribed by Kinross Gold Corporation and with a public offering launched by AbraSilver structured as a C$30 million “Bought Deal.” National Bank Financial Inc. and Beacon Securities Limited acted as co-bookrunners on behalf of a syndicate of underwriters.

This transaction reflects our commitment to helping clients navigate key strategic opportunities. We appreciate Central Puerto’s confidence in our work.
