IN BRIEF: Shuka receives initial tranche of $300,000 loan payment

Shuka Minerals PLC - Africa-focused mine operator and developer - Receives an initial tranche of $300,000 from Gathoni Muchai Investments Ltd under the increased loan facility. The loan facilitates Shuka’s acquisition of Leopard Exploration & Mining Ltd in Zambia. Early in July, Gathoni Muchai agreed to increase its loan to Shuka by £1.5 million to £2 million.
