Investments

Cobalt Mining and Tailings Processing Operations - DRC

On 21 February 2017, the Company announced that it had entered into a Binding Heads of Agreement ( Agreement ) with Congolese company, Paragon Mining SARL ( Paragon ) to form a 50/50 Joint Venture ( JV ) to develop the Kipushi Cobalt Copper Tailings Project, the Kasombo Copper-Cobalt Projects and operate the Kipushi Processing Plant in the Democratic Republic of Congo ( DRC ).

During the quarter the incorporation of the new joint venture company “Soludo-Lambert Mining SAS” ( SLM ) progressed with the finalisation and signing of its constitution. The temporary bank account required to deposit the initial capital amount was opened midJanuary and the initial capital requirements deposited. The Company’s lawyers have now commenced the incorporation process, which will be completed in February 2018 quarter.

a. Off-Take and Funding Negotiations

On 22 June 2017, the Company announced that it had appointed UK-based strategic advisor Metals Risk Management Limited to assist it with finalising its concentrate offtake and funding arrangements for its copper-cobalt projects. Metals Risk Management is a specialist risk advisory company providing independent guidance on price risk management, including concentrate offtake agreements and sales and commodity linked funding structures.

Following discussions with trading companies, several requested that the Company produce and deliver to them sample concentrate lots in order that they could undertake their own analysis. Further tailings sample was collected and dispatched to Axis House in South Africa for the production of the sample lots. Two sample lots have been recently dispatched to the trading companies, with two additional sample lots still in the process of being produced (dispatch expected early February 2018). Once the trading companies have completed their own analysis, terms for potential offtake agreements will be discussed.

b. Strategic Investor

During the quarter, the Company was invited to China for meetings in Beijing, Shanghai and Hong Kong to negotiate strategic investment and partnership over the Company's planned production of cobalt and copper in the Democratic Republic of Congo and from its Kipushi Cobalt Project.

In addition, the Company, in conjunction with Metals Risk Management Limited ( MRM ), its UK based strategic advisor held discussions with several major international trading groups based in Switzerland, the United States and Europe during the London Metal Exchange Week which was held in November 2017.

c. Assignment of Kasombo Project to Fe Limited

During the September 2017 quarter, the Company announced that it it had entered into a binding terms sheet with Fe Limited ( FEL ) whereby Cape Lambert will assign to FEL 100% of the rights and obligations it has in the Kasombo Copper-Cobalt Project ( Kasombo Project ) ( Transaction ) (Refer ASX announcement dated 13 July 2017).

develop the projects (refer to ASX announcement dated 3 May 2017 for details of the joint venture arrangement).

Kipushi Project

The Company has previously reported that it was undertaking metallurgical testwork at Axis House. During the quarter Axis House has been focused on generating concentrate sample lots requested by the international trading houses, in order that they can undertake their own analysis of the concentrate. Two sample lots have been dispatched, with another two lots to be dispatched in February 2018. Once the concentrate sample lots have been dispatched, Axis House will continue with optimisation tests to further improve cobalt grades and recoveries.

A concentrate sample was also dispatched to the laboratory of Mintek to undertake a mineralogical analysis of the concentrate, which will assist in the subsequent optimisation testwork.

In January 2018, the Company engaged the services of a South African processing/engineering consultant to undertake a review of the Kipushi processing plant and to provide recommendations and design services on the upgrade work required to make the plant operational. A site visit will be undertaken during February 2018.

The Board of SLM appointed Philippe Bouchart as the General Manager of SLM during January 2018. Philippe has a metallurgical background and worked in the DRC in similar roles from 2012 to 2014 and will commence his employment in March 2018.

Kasombo Project

In November 2017, FEL reported that it had completed its own mapping works at Kasombo 6 and 7. Mapping works at Kasombo 5 were completed early December 2017. The mapping showed two styles of mineralization: the first conforming to mineralization typical of deposits of the Katanga Copper Belt; the second showing cross-cutting breccia style, providing potential to significantly increase the size of mineralisation.

Twenty samples were collected during the mapping program, predominantly from Kasombo 7 and dispatched to ALS Laboratories for assaying in Lubumbashi and South Africa. The assay results returned high grade cobalt assays, with the highest grade assays being 6.99% cobalt (sample A2914) and 1.57% cobalt (sample A2916) (refer FEL announcement dated 12 December 2017).

During December 2017, FEL completed a small RC drill programme, designed to test the grade and depth of mineralization at Kasombo 5 and Kasombo 6. A total of 390m was completed in difficult conditions due to the wet weather, with 3 holes completed at Kasombo 5 (200m) and 4 holes at Kasombo 7 (190m). Drill samples were dispatched to ALS Laboratories for assaying, with the first results expected back mid-February 2018 (refer FEL announcement dated 8 January 2018).

Cote D’Ivoire (100% interest)

Metals Exploration Cote D’Ivoire SA Limited ( Metals Ex ) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Cape Lambert Resources.
