Commenting on the rationale for the Company’s interest in acquiring the Coolgardie Gold Project, Intermin Managing Director Jon Price said:

“The potential consolidation of the Intermin and MacPhersons assets with the Coolgardie Gold Project would be a natural fit, delivering additional high grade open cut and underground ore sources to the base load Boorara Project and Intermin’s satellite projects, as well as a conventional 1.2Mtpa processing facility.”

“We look forward to working with MacPhersons and Focus on progressing these transactions and embarking on an exciting new chapter for all shareholders and the regional communities in which we operate.”

Overview

Intermin has entered into an Exclusivity Deed with Focus relating to the potential acquisition of the 2.1Moz Coolgardie Gold Project, which includes the 1.2Mtpa Three Mile Hill processing plant (currently on care and maintenance) (“Proposed Transaction”).

The key terms of the Exclusivity Deed include:

• Within 7 business days of execution of the Exclusivity Deed, Intermin will pay a A$300,000 exclusivity deposit to Focus.

• The parties will use their reasonable endeavours to negotiate the formal documents for the Proposed Transaction on terms consistent with those set out in the Schedule to this announcement within the 5 month exclusivity period (“Exclusivity Period”).

• Focus has agreed to customary "no shop" and "no talk" restrictions in favour of Intermin, as well as notification and matching rights in respect of any competing proposals Focus may receive for the Coolgardie Gold Project, subject to customary fiduciary carve-outs for Focus' benefit.

• If the parties execute formal documents for the Proposed Transaction within the Exclusivity Period, the A$300,000 exclusivity deposit will be applied towards the cash consideration payable by Intermin. Otherwise, depending on the circumstances in which the Exclusivity Deed is terminated, the deposit will either be retained by Focus, or refunded to Intermin.

Having completed respective due diligence investigations, the Exclusivity Period will allow Focus and Intermin the opportunity to negotiate and seek to finalise formal binding written agreements (“Formal Documentation”) for the Proposed Transaction (to be on terms consistent with those set out in the Schedule to this announcement) and to secure all necessary approvals to enter into and complete it.

As the Proposed Transaction remains subject to the negotiation of, and entry into, the Formal Documentation and the receipt of necessary approvals, there is no assurance that the Proposed Transaction will proceed. Neither Focus nor Intermin is under any obligation to proceed with the Proposed Transaction or to enter into the Formal Documentation unless they are satisfied in all respects with the terms and conditions of the Formal Documentation.

Intermin’s entry into the Exclusivity Deed was consented to by MacPhersons. As announced to the ASX on 11 December 2018, Intermin and MacPhersons have executed a Merger Implementation Agreement relating to the proposed merger of the two companies by means of a scheme of arrangement.

Overview of the Coolgardie gold project

The Coolgardie gold project covers 235km[2] of greenstone belt 45km west of Kalgoorlie-Boulder (Figures 1 and 2) comprising the following:

• Quoted Mineral Resource estimate of 27.3Mt grading 2.4g/t Au for 2,127,500 ounces[1]

• Quoted Ore Reserve estimate of 1.6Mt grading 3.2g/t Au for 171,000 ounces[1]

• A 1.2Mtpa processing plant currently on care and maintenance and a significant amount of open cut, underground and operations infrastructure

• The new Bonnie Vale underground discovery 10km north of the Coolgardie township with a quoted Mineral Resource estimate of 205,000 ounces grading 6.8g/t Au and Ore Reserve estimate of 124,000 ounces grading 6.2g/t Au[1]

• The Brilliant open cut and underground project in Coolgardie with a quoted Mineral Resource estimate of 475,500 ounces grading 2.5g/t Au[1]

1 As announced to the ASX by Focus on 30 May 2018, 24 April 2018, 13 October 2017 and 7 April 2017. See also the tables, important notes / cautionary statements, Competent Persons Statements and Confirmations on pages 6-9 of this Announcement.

Figure 2: Coolgardie gold project locations and surrounding infrastructure[1]

The potential acquisition of the Coolgardie Gold Project would continue Intermin’s growth strategy. Intermin has grown through self-funded exploration success, asset acquisitions and strategic joint ventures and remains in a strong financial position with A$7.1 million in cash and investments, a strong and supportive shareholder base and has a demonstrated ability to raise additional capital as the need arises.

Jett Capital Advisors LLC and Mills Oakley are acting as Intermin’s financial advisor and legal advisor respectively in relation to the Proposed Transaction

Competent Persons Statement and Confirmation

The information in this report that relates to Focus’ Mineral Resources estimates for the Coolgardie Gold Project is based on information originally reported in Focus’ ASX announcements “Mineral Resource Update for Bonnie Vale Deposit” dated 30 May 2018, “Annual Report for the Year Ended 31 December 2017” dated 24 April 2018, “PFS Completion and Ore Reserve Upgrade” dated 13 October 2017, “Amended Greenfields Resource Update” dated 29 May 2017 and “Brilliant Mineral Resource Increased 26%; PFS Exploration Ongoing” and has been included in this report by Hannah Kosovich. Ms Kosovich is a Member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists. Ms Kosovich is a part time employee of Focus Minerals Limited and has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which she is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 edition of the “Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves” (“JORC Code 2012”). Ms Kosovich confirms that the information in Focus’ previous ASX announcements referred to in report, together with this report, is an accurate representation of the available data and studies for the Coolgardie Gold Project. Ms Kosovich has given her consent to the inclusion in this report of the matters based on the information in the form and context in which it appears.

The information, except for Bonnie Vale, Brilliant and Greenfields was prepared and first disclosed under the JORC Code 2004. It has not been updated since to comply with the JORC Code 2012 on the basis that the information has not materially changed since it was last reported. Bonnie Vale, Brilliant and Greenfields are reported under the JORC Code 2012.

Important Notes / Cautionary Statement

Please note:

1. The information in this report that relates to Focus’ Mineral Resources estimates for the Coolgardie Gold Project has been reported by Focus and not Intermin. The source of the reporting of these Mineral Resources estimates is identified in the preceding Competent Person’s Statement and Confirmation.

2. With the exception of the Bonnie Vale Project, the Brilliant deposit (which forms part of the Tindals Project) and the Greenfields deposit (which forms part of the Three Mile Hill Project), Focus’ Mineral Resources estimates referred to in this report were prepared and first disclosed under the 2004 edition of the JORC Code (“2004 JORC Code Estimates”). They have not been updated since to comply with the JORC Code 2012 on the basis that Focus’ has determined that the information has not materially changed since it was last reported. Bonnie Vale, Brilliant and Greenfields are reported in accordance with the JORC Code 2012.

3. A Competent Person has not done sufficient work to classify the 2004 JORC Code Estimates in accordance with the JORC Code 2012. It is possible that following evaluation and/or further exploration work the currently reported estimates may materially change and hence will need to be reported afresh under and in accordance with the JORC Code 2012.

4. Nothing has come to the attention of Intermin that causes it to question the accuracy or reliability of Focus’ 2004 JORC Code Estimates but Intermin has not independently validated the 2004 JORC Code Estimates and therefore is not to be regarded as reporting, adopting or endorsing the 2004 JORC Code Estimates.

1. Intermin is not aware of the following matters: the work programs on which the 2004 JORC Code Estimates were based; the key assumptions, mining and processing parameters and methods used to prepare the 2004 JORC Code Estimates; or any more recent estimates or data relevant to the reported mineralisation available to Focus.

2. The Proposed Transaction referred to in this Announcement remains subject to the negotiation of, and entry into, the Formal Documentation and the receipt of necessary approvals. There is no assurance that the Proposed Transaction will proceed (including the entry into the Asset Sale Agreement). Accordingly, Intermin is not currently in a position to comment on the evaluation and/or exploration work that needs to be completed to report the 2004 JORC Code Estimates as Mineral Resource Estimates in accordance with the JORC Code 2012, or regarding any evaluation and/or exploration work it might undertake were the Proposed Transaction to proceed.

These risks and uncertainties include but are not limited to liabilities inherent in mine development and production, geological, mining and processing technical problems, the inability to obtain any additional mine licenses, permits and other regulatory approvals required in connection with mining and third party processing operations, competition for among other things, capital, acquisition of reserves, undeveloped lands and skilled personnel, incorrect assessments of the value of acquisitions, changes in commodity prices and exchange rate, currency and interest fluctuations, various events which could disrupt operations and/or the transportation of mineral products, including labour stoppages and severe weather conditions, the demand for and availability of transportation services, the ability to secure adequate financing and management’s ability to anticipate and manage the foregoing factors and risks. There can be no assurance that forward looking statements will prove to be correct.

Statements regarding plans with respect to the Company’s mineral properties may contain forward looking statements in relation to future matters that can only be made where the Company has a reasonable basis for making those statements.
