Gold Road has paid consideration of $150,000 in cash and has agreed to pay Montezuma a Discovery Payment of $7.50 per resource ounce on future discoveries within the area covered by E38/2889.
Gold Road must prepare a Mineral Resource Statement on at least an annual basis and pay the Discovery Payment on each troy ounce of gold added to the global Mineral Resource within 45 days of the finalisation of each resource update.
The Discovery Payment is also payable on ounces included in a mine plan but which have not been included in a JORC resource.
This transaction is part of an ongoing strategy to realise value from non-core assets to allow the Company to maintain focus on the advancement of its commercialisation activities at the high purity Butcherbird Manganese Project and the Pinnacles Cobalt Project as well as other key portfolio assets.
The inclusion of the Discovery Payment in the transaction also provides Montezuma shareholders with an effective free-carry on future discoveries providing potential upside exposure with no risk and no requirement to allocate further funds to the project.

Mr O’Neill consents to the inclusion of this information in the form and context in which it appears in this report
