TORONTO (Dow Jones)--SouthernEra Resources Ltd. (T.SUF) said it has

the acquisition of 2.1 million Messina shares tendered to a standby offer.
As reported, SouthernEra completed the acquisition of 54% of Messina in
early March for about $10.3 million.
In a news release, SouthernEra said the final cost of the acquisition of the
additional shares, including brokerage fees, was about $2.8 million.
The company said the 2.1 million shares were tendered at 9.28 rand each.
SouthernEra said Messina is planning to dewater the Messina shaft and start
underground development, test mining and bulk sampling, at an estimated cost
of $4.1 million, as soon as it receives all the necessary permits. This work
will be financed with cash currently held by Messina, it said. The Messina
Platinum Project is in South Africa.
SouthernEra is a platinum group metals producer and a diamond mining and
