ASX Announcement

13 October 2016

ASX Code: COY

DRILLING CONTRACT SIGNED

Coppermoly Ltd ( Coppermoly or the Company ) is pleased to announce that it has signed an agreement with international drilling contractor Quest Exploration Drilling ( QED ) to carry out an exploration drilling program at the Company’s most advanced project, the Mt Nakru Copper-Gold project. The project area hosts two known mineralisation zones: Nakru 1 and adjacent Nakru 2 prospects where drilling in 2014 intersected high grade near-surface copper mineralisation.

The agreement provides for the drilling of 15 HQ diamond drill holes for a total of 2,730 metres. The 15 drill holes are planned to be infill drilling to define the extension of mineralisation systems at both Nakru 1 and Nakru 2.The program is expected to commence in the coming weeks.

Coppermoly Non-executive Director, Dr Wanfu Huang, said of the upcoming campaign:

“This drilling program marks the restart of substantive ground exploration on the Company’s key copper and gold exploration tenement. We are delighted to have engaged such a well credentialed and locally experienced operator as QED.

The drill program will provide further data to enhance our understanding of the mineralisation systems in the project area, and advance our knowledge about the economic potential of ore bodies at Nakru.”

On behalf of the Board.
