Item 8.01 Other Events.

On November 9, 2021, the Company consummated its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 30,000,000 units (the “Units”), including the issuance of 2,500,000 Units as a result of the underwriter’s exercise of its over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (an “Ordinary Share”), and one-half of one redeemable warrant of the Company. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Ordinary Share for $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $300,000,000.

Substantially concurrently with the closing of the IPO, the Company completed the private sale of 14,000,000 private placement warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a purchase price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, to the Company’s sponsor, Rigel Resource Acquisition Holding LLC, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $14,000,000.

A total of $306,000,000, comprised of proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, was placed in a U.S.-based trust account at JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee. An audited balance sheet as of November 9, 2021 reflecting receipt of the proceeds upon consummation of the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants has been issued by the Company and is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
