Commenting on the Placement, Galileo Managing Director Brad Underwood said: “We are delighted with the strong market support for our placement which puts us in an excellent position to expand the drilling programs at our recent Callisto palladium-nickel discovery. The high level of interest has allowed us to complete the $20.4 million placement with $8.7 million of the funds coming from our major

shareholders, Mark Creasy and IGO. The placement will increase our total cash to approximately $26.5 million and allow us to aggressively explore this significant new palladium province within our Norseman Project area.
With over five kilometres of strike length at the Callisto discovery, and highly prospective targets at the Jimberlana and Mission Sill prospects, the potential for additional mineralisation is very high.
We are currently completing our second RC drill campaign at Callisto with a geological update to be provided to the market on the completion of the program. In addition, we are waiting for the assay results from the first four drill holes of the present drill program[(1)] which are expected to be returned from the laboratory shortly.
The third RC drill program is scheduled to begin at the end of July with diamond drilling planned to commence in August. We look forward to updating the market with results from this exciting new West Australian discovery.”

GAL’s tenements near Norseman are highly prospective for palladium-copper-nickel sulphide deposits as shown by the Callisto discovery. GAL also has Joint Ventures with the Creasy Group over tenements in the Fraser Range which are prospective for nickel-copper sulphide deposits similar to the operating Nova mine. GAL’s Norseman Project contains a near surface laterite deposit with over 26,000 tonnes of contained cobalt, and 122,000 tonnes of contained nickel, in JORC compliant resources (see JORC Table below).
