ASX Release Report for the Quarter Ended 30 June 2018

31 July 2018

Corporate Activities

  • Successful and well supported Rights Entitlement issue commenced and closed fully subscribed raising A$1.93m.

  • The capital raising will allow the company to accelerate and significantly progress its Lithium Exploration program over coming months.

  • Efforts to monetise and progress development of Dart’s Gold projects has been fruitful with multiple counterparties seeking access to Dart’s data room as part of their assessment of the company’s Gold projects.

  • Discussions and negotiations remain ongoing against a backdrop of significant across the board interest in Victorian Gold projects.

  • It is the board’s view that Dart’s Gold projects would achieve enhanced valuations and attractiveness if they were jointly managed and developed in a spin-out or fully funded joint venture arrangement.

  • It is likely that the company would retain an active role in directing strategy around development of these assets in the event of a commercial agreement.

Exploration Activities

  • Regional Lithium exploration activity focussed in on two proposed work areas Boones and Gosport, south-west of the township of Eskdale.

  • Ground work including mapping and sampling continues across the region and specifically in the focus areas of Boones and Gosport where large crystal Petalite and Spodumene have been positively identified.

  • An additional Exploration Lease (EL) application has been lodged - with priority - to capture what appears to be the last of the Lithium prospective ground in the region.

  • Logistics planning and drill program tenders are underway as the company progresses towards an initial drill program on multiple dykes, which we expect to be underway, by mid-October.

  • Dart expects that a more detailed and comprehensive Lithium exploration update will be announced before the end of August.
