Kopore Metals Limited (“Kopore” or “Company”) is pleased to provide the following update on its eight Namibian prospecting licenses (EPL’s) covering 5,705km[2] over the emerging Kalahari Copper Belt (see Figure 1).
The Company was recently granted access by the Namibian Ministry of Mines and Energy to substantial sets of archived historical reports and data, covering its Namibian prospecting licenses. A newly received additional set of information has provided the Company with an accelerated path to identifying and refining exploration prospects and further optimising targeted exploration expenditure (see Figure 2).

The eight Namibian prospecting licences cover potential copper-silver prospects with two types of regional interpreted structures, comprising domal limbs and potential intact subsurface domes within the licence areas (see Figure 3).
Kopore continues to work to fast-track its Namibian exploration program definition stage to align this with the Company’s Botswana Projects as the Company progresses through its respective drilling programs. The Company has initiated its required Environmental Clearance Certificate (ECC) program over the Namibian license areas, with anticipated completion in later Q4 2018.
“This newly received additional information will assist the Company in fast-tracking our Namibian exploration targeting phase and allowing the Company to utilise its exploration expenditure more effectively. We look forward to providing further information on our Namibian prospects and planned exploration programs.”- said Kopore Managing director Grant Ferguson .
As announced[1] , the Company is continuing its maiden rotary air blast ( RAB ) and reverse circulation ( RC ) drilling, comprising an initial 3,000 metres across the Company’s identified copper anomalies at KM3 and GW3 Prospects.

ABOUT KOPORE
Kopore Metals Limited (ASX:KMT) is a public company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) and is actively exploring and drilling its copper-silver prospects on the emerging world class Kalahari Copper Belt, located in the Republics of Botswana and Namibia.
Kopore continues to explore for stratabound copper-silver deposits across its sixteen 100% owned prospecting licenses in Botswana and eight prospecting licences in Namibia, for a total of 14,363km[2] on the world class Kalahari Copper Belt. Kopore believes the Kalahari Copper Belt can provide the potential for large scale discovery, as demonstrated by neighbouring resource development companies.
The directors and management of Kopore have strong complimentary experience in Australian and International technical, legal and executive roles within the exploration, resource development, mining and legal fields.
Botswana and Namibia are stable, pro-mining jurisdictions, supportive of mineral exploration and development. According to the most recent Fraser Institute Annual Mining Survey, Botswana and Namibia are ranked #3rd and #6th respectfully for “investment attractiveness” in Africa, in addition to their highly ranked global position.
