Shares in Anvil Mining have slipped in morning trade as the copper miner enters an underwriting deal for its $C30 million ($A34 million) capital raising.
Osborne Park-based Anvil, which is listed on both the ASX and the Toronto Stock Exchange, also released details of the raising which will see 26.1 million shares issued at $C1.15 ($A1.32) each.

The offer is scheduled to close on May 4.
