ASX Announcement Quarterly Report Period Ended 30 June 2018
CORPORATE
Strategy and Business Model
Cape Lambert Resources Limited ( ASX: CFE ) ( Cape Lambert or the Company ) is an Australian domiciled mineral development company. Cape Lambert has interests in several exploration and mining companies, providing exposure to iron ore, copper, gold, uranium, cobalt, lithium and lead-silver-zinc assets in Australia, Europe, Africa and South America (refer Figure 1).
Cape Lambert’s strategy is to acquire and invest in undervalued and/or distressed mineral assets and companies ( Projects ) and:
-
improve the value of these Projects, through a hands on approach to management, exploration, evaluation and development; and
-
retain long-term exposure to these Projects through a production royalty and/or equity interest.
Cape Lambert aims to deliver Shareholder value by adding value to these undeveloped Projects. If Projects are converted into cash, the Company intends to follow a policy of distributing surplus cash to Shareholders.
Cash Balance
As at 30 June 2018, the Company had approximately A$1,903k (including FE Limited cash of A$894k which is consolidated in accordance with accounting standards) in cash at bank.
Placement
On 27 June 2018, the Company completed a placement of 5,250,000 fully paid ordinary shares at $0.04 per share to raise cash funds of $210k (before costs). On the same date, the Company issued one free attaching unquoted option for every one share applied for under the Placement which are exercisable at $0.04 (4 cents) expiring 31 March 2020.
On 29 June 2018, the Company completed a placement of 22,826,667 fully paid ordinary shares at $0.03 per share to raise cash funds of $550,000 (before costs) and settle creditors of $134,800.

ASX Announcement Quarterly Report Period Ended 30 June 2018
Funds raised from the placement will be used towards funding its exploration expenditure activities at the Kipushi Cobalt-Copper Tailings Project in the Democratic Republic of Congo and for general working capital purposes.
The placement shares and options were issued under Cape Lambert’s existing placement capacity under ASX listing rule 7.1 and 7.1A and therefore shareholder approval was not required.
Investments
Kitwe Tailings Project – Zambia
On 22 May 2017, the Company announced that it had executed a binding terms sheet to conditionally acquire 70% of the shares in Zambian entity Australian Mining Company Zambia Limited ( Seller or AMCZL ), which is the holder of exploration licence No 21853-HQSEL ( Licence or Kitwe Project) (Acquisition) . The Licence covers an historic cobaltcopper rich tailings dump located near Kitwe in Zambia (refer ASX announcement dated 22 May 2017).
The Kitwe Project is located approximately 3km from the outskirts of Kitwe, in the Copperbelt region of Zambia. Kitwe is the second largest city, in terms of size and population, in Zambia and is one of the most developed commercial and industrial areas in the nation, alongside Ndola and Lusaka. The Copperbelt is centered around the towns of Ndola, Kitwe, Chingola, Luanshya and Mufulira – a string of towns on Zambia's northern border with the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The share sale agreement was executed on 4 December 2017. The Company was expecting completion to occur during Q1 2018, however there has been some frustration to the completion process by the Zambian authorities and then by AMCZL. Following discussions with AMZCL, the terms of the transaction were renegotiated and a new share sale agreement executed on 3 May 2018. Under the terms of the new agreement ( Agreement ), Cape Lambert will acquire a 60% interest in the Project on satisfaction of the following;
-
Payment of US$150,000 on execution of the Agreement (of which US$50,000 had already been paid);
-
Milestone Payments of:
-
US$300,000 payable on the later of AMZCL entering in to an agreement with the owner of an adjacent licence to allow the storage of processed tailings from the Project on a portion of its license area or 3 months from the date of execution of the Agreement, and
-
US$350,000 to AMZCL 6 months from the date of execution of the Agreement.
During the quarter the Company received a mineralogy report on the 2kg sample of tailings collected and delivered to the laboratory of Mintek in South Africa, which indicated that the major copper bearing mineral phases (in order of abundance) within the sample occurred in the form of malachite, chalcopyrite, Cu-chlorite, bornite, chalcocite/digenite and chrysocolla, while the major cobalt contributor occurred in the form of the Co-hydroxide, heterogenite.
Given the delays in gaining the paperwork needed to export tailings samples to Mintek in order to undertake metallurgical testwork, the Company has sought out the assistance of a metallurgical consultant in Kitwe, to manage a testwork programme at a laboratory in Kitwe.

ASX Announcement Quarterly Report Period Ended 30 June 2018
The testwork programme is being finalised and it is expected that testing will commence early Q3 2018.
Timis Mining Legal Action
As previously announced, the Company has commenced legal action against Gerald Metals, Timis Mining Corporation, Frank Timis and others (jointly the Defendants ) in the High Court of Sierra Leone seeking damages and injunctions against the Defendants (refer ASX announcement dated 15 May 2017, 19 May 2017 and 7 July 2017).
During the quarter, the Company entered into a damages-based agreement with a UK based legal firm to proceed further with the legal matter.
ATO Audit
As previously announced, the Company has been in advanced negotiations with the Commissioner of Taxation ( Commissioner ) regarding various taxation matters, covering the 2011-2015 income years ( Audit Matters ). The key issue in dispute is the tax treatment of the disposal of certain assets. The key terms of the settlement, as previously announced, are being documented in a formal deed. The Company and Commissioner continue to work on the formal deed which is expected to be finalised imminently.
PROJECTS
Marampa (100% interest)
Marampa is an iron ore project at the development stage, and is located 90 km northeast of Freetown, Sierra Leone, West Africa ( Marampa or Marampa Project ) (refer Figure 2). Marampa comprises one granted mining licence (ML05/2014) comprising 79.40km[2] and one granted exploration licence EL46A/2011 – 159.78 km[2] held by Marampa Iron Ore (SL) Limited, which is indirectly, a wholly owned subsidiary of Cape Lambert.
The Marampa Project remains under care and maintenance.
Dempsey Resources (100% interest)
Dempsey Resources holds the Kukuna Iron Ore Project located in Sierra Leone ( Kukuna or Kukuna Project ).
The Project is located 120 km northeast of Freetown in the northwest of Sierra Leone and consists of one exploration licence (EL22/2012) covering 68km[2] (refer Figure 2). The licence is located 70km due north of the Marampa Project and the Pepel Infrastructure and comprises rocks that correlate with the Marampa Group stratigraphy known to host specular hematite mineralisation.
The Kukuna Project remains under care and maintenance.
- Kipushi and Kasombo Copper Cobalt Projects (JV with Paragon Mining SARL)
The Kipushi Cobalt Copper Tailings Project consists of a tailings dam located on PE 12347 and the Kipushi Processing Plant located adjacent mining licence PE481 ( Kipushi Project ), and retains an interest in the Kasombo Copper-Cobalt Project through its shareholding in

FEL ( Kasombo Project ), refer Figure 2. Both projects are located approximately 25km from Lubumbashi, the second largest city in the Democratic Republic of Congo ( DRC . The Company has a 50/50 joint venture agreement with Paragon Mining SARL ( Paragon ) to develop the projects (refer to ASX announcement dated 3 May 2017 for details of the joint venture arrangement). The joint venture company is Soludo Lambert Mining SAS ( Soludo Lambert ).
Kipushi Project
As reported in the March 2018 quarterly report, the Company dispatched a sample of tailings to the laboratory of ALS Metallurgy Pty Ltd ( ALS ), to undertake leach/extraction testing that could potentially provide a more optimum processing solution, in particular higher Cobalt recoveries. ALS completed an initial 3 leach tests on the Kipushi tailings with very encouraging results, which resulted in recoveries of 95.8% for Copper and 83.5% for Cobalt at a 75 micron grind size after 3 hours of leaching.
Given the excellent results achieved from the leach testing, Soludo Lambert adopted a strategy to develop in parallel with the upgrade of the flotation plant, a leaching plant that will potentially produce a high grade copper cobalt hydroxide product.
To progress the development of a potential leaching plant, Soludo Lambert engaged the services of Minnovo Pty Ltd ( Minnovo ) during Q1 2018 to undertake a pre-feasibility study ( PFS ) on a 1Mtpa leach/extraction plant designed to produce a mixed hydroxide precipitate.
During the quarter, ALS carried out a number of tests to precipitate copper and cobalt from the leach solution. Precipitation tests completed produced a mixed hydroxide precipitate ( MHP ) with copper and cobalt grades ranging from 22.8% - 31.9% and 9.77% - 18.4% respectively. The value of 18.4% cobalt was for a precipitate produced after the removal of copper and indicates that a higher grade cobalt MHP could be produced as an alternative to the mixed copper/cobalt MHP, if required. Optimisation tests to further improve the grades of the MHP are continuing.
Based on the preliminary details being received from Minnovo during the PFS study, the Board of Soludo Lambert determined that it was better to defer the upgrade of the flotation plant and focus solely on progressing the development of the leaching plant for the processing of the Kipushi tailings. In this regard, Soludo Lambert requested Minnovo to extend the PFS work to an Engineering Study, which was completed early July 2018 (refer ASX announcement dated 16 July 2018).
Based on the preliminary details delivered by Minnovo prior to the completion of the Engineering Study the Board of Soludo Lambert made a decision to pursue construction of the leaching plant and appointed Minnovo in May 2018 to undertake the detailed design.
Subsequent to being awarded the design work, Minnovo have progressed the finalisation of the process design criteria and process flow diagrams, process plant layout, equipment data sheet preparation and specifications for tendering long lead item equipment and the details required to tender the concrete works associated with the leaching plant.
In anticipation of construction works commencing on the Kipushi Leaching Plant, Soludo Lambert commenced a recruitment process for a Construction Manager and expect an appointment to occur in August 2018.

Kasombo Project
In its June 2018 quarterly, FEL reported that it had tendered a 5000m drilling programme covering Kasombo 5 and Kasombo 7. Nine drilling companies visited the Kasombo area to tender on the proposed drilling programme, with four companies later shortlisted and proposals updated accordingly. The awarding of the drilling contract was delayed, however, pending the completion of a planned ground magnetics programme.
FEL also reported that a local consulting geology company Minex Consulting SA (Minex) was engaged to undertake a trenching, logging and sampling programme at Kasombo 7. Seven trenches for a total length of 617m were completed with a total of 289 samples collected for analysis. The samples were readied and dispatched to ALS late June 2018 for analysis. In logging the trenches Minex noted:
-
The first three trenches showed highly folded terrains with the typical lower Mines Series sequences observed while the upper Mines series seems to be highly weathered.
-
A leached mineralised zone was observed in the KSB_TR001 close to the RSC and has been interpreted as disseminated Feox that could be considered as the oxidized sulphide (possibly the upper ore body).
-
The correlation of all the trenches led to highlight that the upper R2 Mines is affected by tight folding which are affected by fractures.
-
The typical R2 Mines series known ore bodies have been identified. The lower ore body has been identified in most of the trenches, while the upper ore body was not observed in most of them.
FEL also reported that in June 2018, it had engaged the services of the Department of Geology from the University of Lubumbashi ( University ), to undertake a ground magnetics survey of the Kasombo area. The University commenced and completed the ground magnetics field works with 12 lines of survey of approximately 1.2km each, and equidistant of 400m oriented N-S, totalling a cumulative length of 20.2km, with the interpretation to commence.
Mining International Pty Ltd (100% Interest)
Mining International Pty Ltd ( Mining International ), is a wholly owned subsidiary of Cape Lambert. The Company holds tenure to 4 mining leases (which were excluded from the sale of the Leichhardt Copper Project) at the Wee MacGregor Project located 40 km southeast of Mt Isa in Queensland (refer Figure 4).
The tenements are located within in the Eastern Fold Belt of the Mt Isa inlier. The easternmost tenements are located in the Mary Kathleen Zone/Wonga Subprovince. The western group of tenements are located in the Kalkadoon Leichhardt Belt. These areas are prospective for a variety of deposit types, most notably structurally controlled epigenetic copper and gold deposits.
Cohiba Minerals Limited ( Cohiba ) has a Farm-in agreement with the Company for mining licences ML 2504, ML 2773 and ML 90098, while Firebird Minerals Pty Ltd ( Firebird ) has a Farm-in agreement for mining licence ML2771.
On 23 July 2018, Cohiba reported that it had commenced a drilling programme in the area known as Great Central located directly south of the main mineralised Wee MacGregor ore body (refer Cohiba announcement dated 23 July 2018).
Cape Lambert Resources Limited June 2018 Quarterly Report
Page 6 of 17
September
ASX Announcement Quarterly Report Period Ended 30 June 2018
Cohiba noted that no mineralisation from the Great Central area has been defined or included in resource estimations in the past so anything discovered below surface will be new. Assay results from previous surface samples taken in the area have returned high grade copper and cobalt values including up to 8.4% Cu and 0.21% Co (refer Cohiba announcement dated 25 October 2017) demonstrating significant potential for the definition of additional near surface mineralisation. Drilling in Great Central is essentially reconnaissance as the source and morphology of the mineralisation is unknown.
Attributes
The Metallurgical testwork data in this presentation is based on information compiled by Mr Chris Larder who has 35 years experience in the mining and mineral processing industries. Mr Larder has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration. Mr Larder is a consultant to Cape Lambert Resources Limited and consents to the results being released in the form and context in which they appear.

| Data aggregation methods • In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (eg 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. • • |
Tailings samples were removed from the 8 the bags and blended. Testwork charges for leach testing were then split out using a rotary splitter. Testing conducted on the samples is explained below. |
|||
| Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept • These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration Results. • If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should be reported. • If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there • • |
Samples were taken vertically down the walls of small pit excavations. The base of the tailings was not intersected at any time. |
