Wiluna Mining has opened the book for its initial public offering, seeking to raise approximately $200 million as it attempts to return to public markets.
The listing marks a significant comeback for the company, which has been delisted for four years following a period of volatility and internal governance challenges.
The move comes shortly after the successful completion of FDC Construction & Fitout's $400 million IPO, providing a recent benchmark for institutional appetite in the Australian equity market.

Fund managers are now turning their attention to Wiluna, assessing whether the miner's valuation and prospects can attract sufficient capital in the current environment.
Sources indicate that the offering will not qualify for the new fast-track IPO regulatory framework, which was introduced last year and first utilized by GemLife.
This means Wiluna must navigate the standard listing process, potentially extending the timeline for final pricing and trading commencement compared to companies eligible for the accelerated route.
