CHILE GOLD PROJECT UPDATE

Australian explorer, Emu NL (ASX: EMU), provides the following update in relation to its activities at the Company’s Vidalita gold project in northern Chile.

As detailed in the June quarterly, the Company has collated all the information on the Vidalita project and from this compliation has proposed further surface geochemical sampling and an initial drilling program for the the 2017/18 field season.

The surface geochemical program (figure 1) will infill and extend the sample coverage and may cause the Company to relocate some of the proposed drill holes. Depending on the winter season, this work may commence in November.

The initial drilling program consists of 36 drill holes (figure 2) located to test a selection of geochemical and geophysical targets within the project area. While the start date for this part of the program will depend on the winter season and logistics, the Company would like to be on site preChristmas.

NEW PROJECTS

Consistent with previous statements by the Company, Emu did and continues to look for new mineral exploration, development and mining opportunities within Australia and at various overseas jurisdictions.

ABOUT THE CHILE GOLD PROJECTS

The Vidalita and Jotahues gold projects are located in the highly mineralised Oligocene/Miocene Maricunga gold belt in northern Chile, approximately 200 km east from the city of Copiapó in the Atacama Region of Chile. The two projects cover an area of approximately 2,800 hectares of mineral exploration concessions and host alteration and mineralization that appear geologically similar to other high sulphidation gold deposits of the Maricunga gold belt. The projects are accessed using a network of roads that link Copiapó with the Refugio project (Kinross), Cerro Casale project (Barrick/Kinross) and the Caspiche project (Goldcorp). Refugio is located 30 km to the northwest of Vidalita. Apart from the recent very limited drilling by Emu, due enquiry having been made, the Company is unaware of the project having been drilled.

Emu has an option ( Emu’s Option Agreement ) with Prospex SpA and BLC SpA, Chilean subsidiaries of Altius Minerals Corporation of Canada, to acquire 8 concessions at Vidalita and 3 concessions at Jotahues. The option under Emu’s Option Agreement may be exercised any time up until 11[th] November 2019 by granting Prospex and BLC a 1% NSR on production and, subject to Emu expending US$1 million in pursuing its rights under the Emu Option Agreement by 10[th] December 2018 and electing to continue with the project, allotting them 2.5 million Emu ordinary shares. In addition, if the option is exercised and subject to certain measured mineral resource hurdles being met (see ASX release 15[th] November 2016), up to a further 10 million shares will be issued. Prospex SpA in turn has an option under an agreement (the Prospex’s Option Agreement ) to acquire 6 of the 8 Vidalita concessions from local Chilean parties. Under the terms of that agreement, Prospex has the right to exercise that option by 11[th] November 2019 by paying US$2 million and granting the Chilean parties a 1% NSR over those 6 concessions. Under Emu’s Option Agreement, Emu has assumed the rights and obligations of Prospex under Prospex’s Option Agreement.
