Acquisition of Strategic Zambian Cobalt Project to Proceed Following Successful Due Diligence

HIGHLIGHTS:

• Legal and technical due diligence on the acquisition of a 70% interest in the Kitwe Cobalt-Copper Tailings Project in Zambia completed

• Due diligence completed following site visit, review of extensive historical data, sampling and assaying of tailings material and meetings with key government officials

• Preparation of share sale agreement underway by the Company’s lawyers to allow settlement of the acquisition to proceed

• Board consider the acquisition will further strengthen the Company’s strategic positon in the Central African Copperbelt, one of the world’s largest producing regions of high grade cobalt and copper concentrates and LME grade copper metal

• This will be the Company’s second significant acquisition after finalising the Joint Venture with Paragon Mining (SARL) to develop the Kipushi Cobalt Tailings and Kasombo Cobalt Projects in the Democratic Republic of Congo

Australian resource and investment company, Cape Lambert Resources Limited ( ASX: CFE ) ( Cape Lambert or the Company ) is pleased to announce that it has successfully completed its legal and technical due diligence to acquire 70% of the shares in Zambian entity Australian Mining Company Zambia Limited ( AMCZL ), which is the holder of exploration licence No 21853-HQ-SEL ( Project) (Acquisition) . The Licence covers a historic cobalt-copper rich tailings dump located near Kitwe in Zambia.

Commenting on the completion of the due diligence review and acquisition, Cape Lambert Executive Chairman, Mr Tony Sage, said, “We have moved very quickly to secure this strategic and significant cobalt and copper asset for the Company in one of the world’s largest cobalt producing regions. The acquisition, follows the completion of our cobalt production Joint Venture in the DRC last month. These acquisitions will see the Company be a significant player in the cobalt market in the years to come.”

“Our management and consultants completed a thorough legal and technical due diligence review and we are obviously pleased that the outcome was positive and now allows us to finalise the Share Purchase Agreement with our lawyers. We are committed to establish ourselves firmly in the cobalt sector and to utilize our resource experience in Africa to advance this project.” Mr Sage added.

ASX Announcement 6 June 2017

The Kitwe Cobalt-Copper Tailings Project, is located approximately 3km from the city of Kitwe, in the Copperbelt region of Zambia and approximately 170km from the Company’s Kipushi Cobalt Tailings and Kasombo Cobalt Projects located near the town of Kipushi in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

The Company announced on 22 May 2017 that it had executed a Binding Terms Sheet to conditionally acquire a 70% interest in the Project. The Binding Terms Sheet was subject to completion of due diligence on AMCZL and the Project and the execution of a Share Sale Agreement.

During May 2017, the Company’s management team and technical consultants completed a site visit to the tailings dam, reviewed the extensive historical data and collected 7 samples from the tailings dam, which were assayed for cobalt and copper at the Kalalushi laboratory of SGS Inspection Services Ltd in Zambia. The site visit which was completed with a representative of the Zambian Ministry of Mines and Minerals Development, Geological Survey Department confirmed the extent and size of the tailings dam with a survey completed by them on 9 May 2017 estimating the license to contain 17.72 million tonnes of tailings. The assay results from the samples (refer Table 1 and included in ASX Announcement dated 22 May 2017) further confirmed the historical grade data of the tailings that was reviewed.

The Company’s lawyers are now preparing the Share Sale Agreement under which it will complete the acquisition of the 70% interest in the Project. Under the terms of the Share Sale Agreement, the Company has a 6 month option to secure its interest in the Project by spending US$500,000 within 6 months from the date of exercising the option.

ASX Announcement 6 June 2017

If Cape Lambert does not exercise the option, or fails to spend the US$500,000 within the 6 months option period, then the 70% shareholding will be returned to AMCZL. Once the Company has exercised the option and met its minimum expenditure requirements, it will further pay AMCZL the following cash payments:

• a) US$50,000 upon AMCZL receiving environmental approvals in the respect of the Project;

• b) US$50,000 upon AMCZL being granted a mining licence in respect of the Project; and

• c) US$50,000 upon AMCZL receiving an export licence.

Yours faithfully Cape Lambert Resources Limited
