The Board of Vela (AIM: VELA) announces that, between 24 March 2021 and 6 April 2021, the Company disposed of its entire holding of 310,000 common shares in North Peak Resources Ltd ("North Peak") at prices between CAD$0.70 per share and CAD$0.745 per share and with an average price of CAD$0.73 per share generating net proceeds of c.CAD$226,032 (approximately GBP130,112) for the Company (the "Disposal").
The book value of Vela's holding in North Peak in Vela's latest published accounts (as at 31 March 2020) was GBP53,211. Therefore, the accounts for the year ending 31 March 2021 are expected to reflect a profit on disposal of c.GBP76,900.

GBP2.65 million of investments have been made through the deploying of Vela's available cash resources and GBP1.10 million has been satisfied through the issue of equity in Vela as part of the St George Street Capital investment agreement entered into by Vela in October 2020.
