UPDATE ON DIVESTMENT OF TASMANIAN ASSETS

Bass Metals Limited (ASX: “BSM”) (the “Company”) is pleased to advise it has extended the Exclusivity Period, under a conditional Term Sheet whereby Bass shall dispose of all its tenements and mining related interests in Tasmania to NQ Minerals Plc (“NQM” - a company listed on the London AIM Exchange).

With Condition Precedents having been met by NQM, the extension through to May 2018, allows time for further financing of NQM’s strategic plans, having recently received approval of its Environmental Management Plan for the commencement of operations at the immediately adjacent Hellyer Polymetallic Mine.

With Bass Metals now having a direct line of site to positive cash flow from its 100% wholly owned Graphmada Graphite Mine, this extension provides Bass a continuance of zero expenditure on these assets, which are subject to ongoing care and maintenance works, as well as tenement retention expenditures.

These benefits are in addition to those as part of the sale to NQM, which are:

  1. NQM shall pay to Bass a 1% Net Smelter Return on any future sales from the tenements for a period of 20 years from completion;

  2. Bass shall be relieved of all future liabilities associated with all of the tenements and existing agreements; and

  3. Bass shall receive bonds and other refunds in relation to the tenements for approximately $650,000.

For further detail on the divestment of these assets please refer to the Company’s ASX announcement ‘Divestment of Tasmanian Assets’ dated 1 May 2017.
