By Sheri Kasprzak

New York, Sept. 19 - Lafayette Mining Ltd. said it plans to raise A$8 million from a private placement of convertible notes.

The 10% notes have a stated value of A$1.00 each, mature in four years and are convertible into common shares at A$0.20 each.

The interest on the notes is payable biannually on Oct. 15 and April 15 in cash or stock.

Based in Melbourne, Australia, Lafayette is a mineral exploration company.
