Lonmin shareholders on Thursday provisionally approved the company's proposal to raise $407 million in a share issue.

The final results of the votes will be announced later in the day, the company's Chairman Brian Beamish said after the shareholder meeting in London.

The loss-making platinum producer had asked its shareholders to vote on five proposals, including consolidation of Lonmin shares. Shareholders also provisionally authorised its directors to allot news shares.
