STOCKYARD SILICA SAND PROJECT – Su lemental Disclosure pp

Industrial Minerals Ltd (ASX:IND, IND or the Company ) announced on 26 July 2021 the securing of the Stockyard Silica Sands Project, located directly to the south of VRX Silica Ltd’s Arrowsmith Project.

As previously advised, Stockyard is considered prospective for High Purity Silica Sand and is located largely within areas of cleared farming land, introducing potential for rapid project development, should exploration and related studies support a viable project.

Introduction Fee

As previously advised, IND has agreed to pay Mining Equities Pty Ltd ( MEPL ) a 1% gross revenue royalty ( Royalty ) in relation to minerals extracted, produced, and sold from the Stockyard Project for the introduction of the opportunity. IND now also confirms the following:

  • MEPL held licence applications over the majority of the project area over which IND has now submitted an application. MEPL applied for licences which comprise the majority of the Stockyard project area (previous ELAs E70/5797 and E70/5929) and subsequently approached IND to understand whether IND wished to acquire an interest in the project area.

  • IND has executed a Finders Fee Agreement ( FFA ) with MEPL, documenting the terms of the introduction.

  • MEPL is an entity controlled by Mr Peter Gianni and Mr Robert Jewson, both of whom are substantial shareholders in IND. MEPL and Mr Gianni are also counterparties to tenement acquisition agreements with the Company for a number of other tenement interests acquired by IND as disclosed in the Company’s prospectus dated 4 June 2021.

  • No consideration has been paid or is payable to MEPL in relation to the FFA other than the Royalty; and

  • Material terms of the Royalty are as set out in Appendix 1 to this announcement.
