Classic Minerals' commitment has culminated in the successful production of its first gold concentrate at the renowned Kat Gap Gold Mine. After the recent commissioning of the plant, the first parcel of ore was processed through the trommell, spinners, jigs and then the Butchart table; resulting in the production of gold concentrate.

The successful production of the first gold concentrate not only certifies Classic Minerals as a gold producer but also represents a key turning point in the company's journey. The smelting of the gold concentrate into a gold bar will generate revenue, enabling the financing of Stage 1 mining at the Kat Gap pit. Furthermore, it will facilitate targeted exploration efforts to unlock additional ounces at Kat Gap, further enhancing the mine's value and potential.

Classic Minerals' positive trajectory extends beyond the Kat Gap Gold Mine. Classic now has the operational capacity to seize the abundant opportunities from identified deposits in the nearby areas. Classic will look to bring additional gold projects online, particularly the highly prospective Lady Ada and Magdalene gold projects, with a combined resource of over 311 thousand ounces of gold. These projects will be seamlessly

ABOUT CLASSIC MINERALS LTD

Expanding its focus from exploration to mining, West Australian-based, minerals house Classic Minerals Ltd holds a pipeline of projects and continues to examine new opportunities both cyclic and counter-cyclic. Currently, ASXlisted Classic holds approximately 578 km2 of tenements across two major regional exploration areas in mineralsrich West Australia. Classic’s ground is in areas with identified high grade gold and base metal targets. Classic’s flagship Kat Gap Gold Project has been the recent focus of its exploration, mining and processing efforts and is strategically located some 170 km south of Southern Cross and some 50 km south of the Company’s Forrestania Gold Project. With strong grades and near-surface mineralisation Kat Gap is soon to attain full scale production. .

The FGP Tenements (excluding Kat Gap) are registered in the name of Reed Exploration Pty Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of ASX listed Hannans Ltd (ASX: HNR). Classic has acquired 80% of the gold rights on the FGP Tenements from a third party, whilst Hannans has maintained its 20% interest in the gold rights. For the avoidance of doubt Classic Ltd owns a 100% interest in the gold rights on the Kat Gap Tenements and also non-gold rights including but not limited to nickel and lithium.

Classic has inferred and indicated mineral resources of 8.41Mt at 1.45 g/t for 391,417 ounces of gold , classified and reported in accordance with the JORC Code (2012), with a recent Scoping Study (see ASX Announcement released 2nd May 2017) suggesting both the technical and financial viability of the project.
