ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 10 JULY 2018

HIGHLY ENCOURAGING MAHELA AUGER RESULTS

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Consistent with its stated strategy to materially grow the Company’s resource inventory of both graphite and lithium, Bass has concluded a successful maiden auger program at its brownfield Mahela Prospect, located in direct proximity to the Graphmada processing facility.

  • Results demonstrate wide spread mineralisation, with grades up to 5.12 %Fixed Carbon (FC) over 12.5m (including 7.37 %FC over 5.0 m) in the first 8m from surface.

  • As planned, the program was successful at establishing an initial footprint of easily minable saprolite-hosted graphite mineralisation with 41 auger holes completed, for a total of 338m drilled.

  • The results indicate at least three saprolite-hosted graphite mineralisation zones identified over 600m, open ended north and south.

  • The Board of Bass, on the strength of these initial results, has approved a follow up diamond drill program with the aim of estimating a maiden Mineral Resource for this brownfields prospect due to its proximity to the Company’s Graphmada large-flake graphite mine.

  • The Mahela Prospect is an important development in the Company’s plans in potentially providing additional feedstock to expand production to >20,000 tonnes by 2020, along with an intended investment in an Expandable Graphite production facility.

ASX ANNOUNCEMENT 10 JULY 2018

Bass Metals Limited (ASX: “BSM”) (the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has successfully completed a maiden auger program at its brownfields prospect; Mahela. The Board of Bass has now approved a diamond drilling program with the aim of estimating a maiden Mineral Resource for the Mahela prospect, which is adjacent to the Mahefedok Mineral Resource and in direct proximity of the Company’s 100% owned, debt free, Graphmada largeflake graphite mine.

The Mahela prospect is located 3.5 kilometres south of the recently refurbished Graphmada Process Plant and associated infrastructure. The mineralised footprint is two to three times that of the Loharano Deposit and is immediately adjacent to the Mahefedok Deposit, the Company’s primary graphite asset.

BASS METALS CEO, MR TIM MCMANUS:

“While our main focus on the delivery of Stage 1 production for Bass and subsequent cash flow, we are pleased with these results at Mahela, with a view to our expansion plans post Stage 1. With the aim to develop a larger resource base, Mahela has the potential to significantly add to the Company’s next key strategic objective of expanding production capacity to ~20,000 tonnes per annum of premium large flake graphite concentrates and possible downstream production of Expandable Graphite.”

JORC Code explanation
Commentary
Sampling
techniques

Nature and quality of sampling (e.g. cut
channels, random chips, or specific
specialised industry standard
measurement tools appropriate to the
minerals under investigation, such as
down hole gamma sounds, or handheld
XRF instruments, etc.). These examples
should not be taken as limiting the broad
meaning of sampling

Include reference to measures taken to
ensure sample representivity and the
appropriate calibration of any
measurement tools or systems used.

Aspects of the determination of
mineralisation that are Material to the
Public Report. In cases where ‘industry
standard’ work has been done this would
be relatively simple (e.g. ‘reverse
circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m
samples from which 3 kg was pulverised
to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’).
In other cases more explanation may be
required, such as where there is coarse
gold that has inherent sampling problems.
Unusual commodities or mineralisation
types (e.g. submarine nodules) may
warrant disclosure of detailed information.

Auger samples were collected and included
composite samples of the graphite bearing
host rocks. Visual estimation of graphite
percentages and flake sizes have been
used to define mineralisation prior to return
of assays. The samples were solar dried,
manually crushed, split twice through a
50/50 riffle splitter to obtain a
representative sub-sample, weighing
between 100-150g that was sent to the
Bass Metals in-house laboratory for
preliminary Fixed Carbon analysis.
Drilling
techniques

Drill type (e.g. core, reverse circulation,
open-hole hammer, rotary air blast,
auger, Bangka, sonic, etc.) and details
(e.g. core diameter, triple or standard
tube, depth of diamond tails, face-
sampling bit or other type, whether core is
oriented and if so, by what method, etc.).

sample bias may have occurred due to
preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse
material.
Logging
Whether core and chip samples have been
geologically and geotechnically logged to a
level of detail to support appropriate
Mineral Resource estimation, mining
studies and metallurgical studies.

Whether logging is qualitative or
quantitative in nature. Core (or costean,
channel, etc.) photography.

The total length and percentage of the
relevant intersections logged.

Samples were all geologically logged and
photographed, and geological recording of
relevant data was captured on Bass Metals
logging templates. All data was codified to
a set company codes system as per
sampling and logging procedures which are
in place.

All logging included lithological features,
estimates of graphite percentages and flake
sizes which is quantitative and is recorded
on the logging sheets. Photographs have
been taken as a qualitative check on logging
when the need arises.
Sub-sampling
techniques
and sample
preparation

If core, whether cut or sawn and whether
quarter, half or all core taken.

If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled,
rotary split, etc. and whether sampled wet
or dry.

For all sample types, the nature, quality
and appropriateness of the sample
preparation technique.

Quality control procedures adopted for all
sub-sampling stages to maximise
representivity of samples.

Measures taken to ensure that the
sampling is representative of the in situ
material collected, including for instance
results for field duplicate/second-half
sampling.

Whether sample sizes are appropriate to
the grain size of the material being
sampled.

Samples were solar dried, crushed and split
twice using a 50:50 riffle splitter. The
crushing and splitting equipment was
cleaned according to best practice
procedures prior to every run.

Each sample was manually crushed to
nominal -2mm and approximately 100-150g
sub-samples was collected and send to the
Bass Metals in-house laboratory in
Madagascar. The in-house laboratory then
pulverized such that 80% of the sample is -
75 micron or less in size.

Reject pulp samples will be sent to a SANAS
accredited laboratory (Bureau Veritas) in
South Africa for further analysis.

Certified graphite standards (GC-09 and
GC-10) and silica blanks (AMIS0439) will be
inserted with the dispatch of the samples to
the SANAS accredited laboratory in South
Africa.

SANAS Laboratory will insert check samples
(blanks, standards and duplicates) to
maintain QAQC standards.

Analysis by the SANAS Accredited
Laboratory in South Africa may include sub-
sample preparation included sorting and
pulverizing such that 80% of the sample is -
75 micron or less in size.

A split of the sub-sample will be analysed
using a LECO Analyser to determine Total
Carbon (TC), Sulphur (S) and Graphitic
Carbon (GC) contents (these are considered
both partial and total digestion analyses).

For TC and S, a stream of oxygen passes
through a prepared sample (0.05 to 0.6g),
it is heated in a furnace to approximately
1350°C and the sulphur dioxide and carbon
dioxide released from the sample are
measured with infrared detection.

For GC, a 0.1g sample is leached with dilute
hydrochloric acid to remove inorganic
carbon. After filtering, washing and drying,
the remaining sample residue is roasted at
425°C to remove organic carbon. The
roasted residue is analysed for Carbon -

Exploration done
by other parties

Acknowledgment and appraisal of
exploration by other parties.

Not applicable as no previous exploration

Geology
Deposit type, geological setting and style
of mineralisation.

Crystalline “hard rock” flake graphite
deposits occur in graphitic gneisses within
Neoproterozoic metasedimentary type
rocks and include accessory minerals of
biotite (± sillimanite / kyanite, ± garnet).

Due to the tropical climate and because
graphite is comparatively inert, weathering
of the “hard rock” graphitic gneiss units
further concentrate the graphite to form
residual regolith-hosted accumulations
within the weathered profile.

Regolith refers to weathered material that
occurs above unweathered bedrock. Two
primary subdivisions are the pedolith (PED)
and the saprolith (SAP). Secondary
subdivisions of the pedolith, from the
surface downwards, include soil (SL),
ferruginous zone (FZ), and the mottled
zone (MZ). Secondary subdivisions of the
saprolith, include saprolite (SP) and
saprock (SR).

The Mahela Project contains at least 3
lenticular bodies of flake graphite within the
weathered profile described above. The 3
parallel striking graphitic units strike
approx. northwest - southeast over strike
distances from 600m and is open ended in
to the north and south.

not detract from the understanding of the
report, the Competent Person should
clearly explain why this is the case.
Data aggregation
methods

In reporting Exploration Results,
weighting averaging techniques,
maximum and/or minimum grade
truncations (e.g. cutting of high grades)
and cut-off grades are usually Material
and should be stated.

Where aggregate intercepts incorporate
short lengths of high grade results and
longer lengths of low grade results, the
procedure used for such aggregation
should be stated and some typical
examples of such aggregations should be
shown in detail.

The assumptions used for any reporting
of metal equivalent values should be
clearly stated.

Samples from augering have been reported
as in-situ Fixed Carbon grades as analysed
by the Bass Metals in-house laboratory.

No Metal Equivalents have been stated.
Relationship
between
mineralisation
widths and
intercept lengths

These relationships are particularly
important in the reporting of Exploration
Results.

If the geometry of the mineralisation with
respect to the drillhole angle is known, its
nature should be reported.

If it is not known and only the down hole
lengths are reported, there should be a
clear statement to this effect (e.g. ‘down
hole length, true width not known’).

Diagrams
Appropriate maps and sections (with
scales) and tabulations of intercepts
should be included for any significant
discovery being reported.

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary

These should include, but not be limited
to a plan view of drill hole collar locations
and appropriate sectional views.
orientation and nature of the 3 graphitic
units and sample locations.
Balanced
reporting

Where comprehensive reporting of all
Exploration Results is not practicable,
representative reporting of both low and
high grades and/or widths should be
practiced to avoid misleading reporting of
Exploration Results.

The summary table of all the auger sample
results are contained within the
announcement.
Other
substantive
exploration data

Other exploration data, if meaningful and
material, should be reported including
(but not limited to): geological
observations; geophysical survey results;
geochemical survey results; bulk samples
– size and method of treatment;
metallurgical test results; bulk density,
groundwater, geotechnical and rock
characteristics; potential deleterious or
contaminating substances.

Not Applicable
Further work
The nature and scale of planned further
work (e.g. tests for lateral extensions or
depth extensions or large-scale step-out
drilling).

Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of
possible extensions, including the main
geological interpretations and future
drilling areas, provided this information is
not commercially sensitive.

A systematic exploration drilling program
will be planned over prospect, in addition to
further auger and pitting with sampling, for
grade estimation, flake size distribution and
metallurgical testing.
