CONVERSION OF OPTIONS

Alchemy Resources Limited (ASX Code: ALY) (the “Company” or “Alchemy”) advises that Novus Capital Pty Ltd, which was the sponsoring broker for Alchemy’s IPO and played an integral role in the initial float of the Company, has exercised 1,218,750 listed options which have been escrowed for the past two years. The options were provided to Novus as part of its sponsoring broker fee.

The funds generated from the exercise of the options ($304,687.50) will assist Alchemy in exploring the highly prospective Magnus Copper/Gold Project (“Magnus”) by covering the cost of the VTEM survey which is currently being conducted plus the cost of future staff, contractors, and drilling. It will also allow all other projects to maintain planned momentum at maximum efficiency.

The preliminary results of the VTEM survey at Magnus are being interpreted as they become available by the geological team headed by Alchemy’s Managing Director who is an experienced geophysicist.

The recently significantly enlarged Hermes Gold Project (“Hermes”) is in the middle of an extensive drilling program with more assay results due very soon.

Alchemy’s geological team has not only significantly extended the strike length and width of Hermes but also identified several new highly prospective areas which were previously untested by earlier tenement owners.

Results to date at Hermes are highly encouraging with 65% of current drilling encountering “significant gold intersections” outside the existing JORC code compliant indicated gold resource of 1.7Mt @ 2.4 g/t Au (equating to 131,000 ounces of contained gold). The best results of the current drilling are:

  • 19m @ 10.78g/t gold from 84m (including 14m @ 14.54 g/t gold from 88m)

  • 29m @ 2.26g/t gold from 72m (icluding 5m @ 10.70g/t from 72m)

  • 9m @ 4.46g/t gold from 94m

The attached Appendix 3B also includes an additional 100,000 listed option that were converted by an optionholder to bring the total options converted to 1,318,750 ($329,687.50).
