Corporate Summary

==> picture [135 x 50] intentionally omitted <==

Bass Metals Ltd. (ASX:BSM) is an Australian stock exchange listed company producing natural flake graphite concentrates from its wholly-owned and operating Graphmada Graphite Mine located in eastern Madagascar. The Company is expanding Graphmada production from 1,500 tonnes per annum (tpa) to 6,000 tpa (Stage 1), to provide a platform via the lowest capital intensity pathway to 20,000 tpa by 2019 (Stage 2).

Graphmada has excellent logistics to reach established graphite concentrate markets, with the mine being adjacent to the main National Highway and only 110 km to the country’s main export port at Toamasina.

Graphmada can consistently supply high quality concentrates for refractory and crucible applications due in large part to the exceptional flake sizes, a high resistance against oxidation and containing no carbonates or other fluxes of its concentrates.

In parallel, Bass is aggressively exploring permits to materially grow resource inventories, and continues to assess potential acquisitions that add value.
