$6.5 M PLACEMENT TO TAKE JERVOIS COPPER PROJECT TO DEVELOPMENT READY STAGE
-
Latest infill drilling results announced - expected to further upgrade copper resource at Reward deposit
-
Placement will fund accelerated high impact infill drilling to further upgrade the Reward Mineral Resource classification and to estimate an Ore Reserve
KGL Resources Limited (ASX:KGL) (KGL or the Company) is pleased to announce it has received commitments to raise $6.5 million, without costs, through the issue of 21.67 million new shares at 30 cents per share (the Placement).
The Placement comprises the issue of:
-
12.7 million shares to Marshall Plenty, a company associated with international mineral resources identity Mr Ernie Thrasher, to raise $3.8 million;
-
5.6 million shares to KMP Investments Pte Ltd, KGL’s largest shareholder, to raise $1.7 million; and
-
3.3 million shares to ASM Connaught House Fund LP, ASM Connaught House Fund (Master) II LP and ASM Connaught House Fund (Master) III LP, which are managed by Argyle Street Management Limited to raise $1.0 million.
KGL Chairman Mr Denis Wood commented:
“Mr Thrasher made his first investment in KGL last February, and ASM Connaught joined the register last August. The decisions by these respected international investors to further increase significantly their stakes in KGL are welcomed and represent a strong vote of confidence in the Company and the Jervois Copper Project.
“KMP Investments, KGL’s largest shareholder, has continued its commitment to the Company, by participating to maintain its existing shareholder position.
“Investors can look forward to strong news flow in the months ahead as we apply the funds to high impact infill drilling programs at Reward and Rockface to further upgrade the Mineral Resource classification and to estimate an Ore Reserve to support the financing initiatives for the development of the Jervois Project. These funds will support the continued retention of the services and expertise of the two drill rigs and crews currently on site given their involvement in last year’s infill drilling program.
“Drilling will also be undertaken to establish a sustainable water source. The issue of sourcing water was raised in responses to the draft Environmental Impact Study (EIS). We were very pleased with support for the project from stakeholders during the public review period and the absence of any project development stoppers. In dealing with
www.kglresources.com.au
the water issue, we need to obtain cultural heritage clearance, tenement licences and agreements for the proposed borefield and pipeline areas. These and other processes relating to the EIS are well under way. We expect that the Supplementary EIS submission will be completed by the end of June.
“Subject to government approvals and development financing, construction of the Jervois Project should commence towards the end of 2019.
“In undertaking this Placement to take Jervois towards development, your directors are encouraged by the current and increasingly positive outlook for copper as sustained demand continues to rise driven by heavy use in infrastructure and the manufacturing of electric vehicles and the challenge of declining grades in the larger established copper mines.”
Use of Funds
The funds raised pursuant to the Placement will enable the Company to continue to deliver on commitments to upgrade resources and extend mineralisation at the Jervois Copper Project. Currently, more than half of the Jervois copper Resource of 385,200 tonnes grading 1.49% is now in the Indicated Resource category, a 25% increase since last May.

Recent assays continue to increase confidence in copper resource at Reward
The final assay results from drilling last December have provided high grade intercepts in the Reward Deeps and are expected to contribute to a further increase in the Indicated Copper Resources at Reward.
Significant assays for the five holes are highlighted in Table 1 and Figures 1 & 2 below.
The drilling targeted the periphery of the Reward Deeps with the aim of extending and improving the resource. The best results are from hole KJCD315 with:
-
5.24 m @ 2.13% Cu, 11.70 g/t Ag and 0.46 g/t Au from 502.50 m, and
-
4.52 m @ 5.73% Cu, 109.20 g/t Ag and 1.21 g/t Au from 524.80 m.
Being 50 m west of the upper portion of the Reward Deeps Indicated Resource, this intercept should add to the Indicated Resources at Reward.
Enhancing the significance and value of the intercept is the fact that it is outside any known conductors identified by DHEM surveying, being located between conductors R1 and R2 (Figure 2).
Hole KJCD312, in the centre of conductor R6, intercepted:
- 6.44 m @ 5.09% Cu, 45.70 g/t Ag and 0.76 g/t Au from 733.00 m.
The other intercepts indicate that the copper grades drop off towards the edge of the conductor, similar to what has been observed at Rockface.

| mineralisation | | If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole | ||

| intercept lengths | | If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, | ||
| there should be a clear statement to this effect (eg ‘down hole | ||||
| length, true width not known’). | ||||
| Diagrams | | Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of | | Refer Figures 1 and 2 |
| intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being | ||||
| reported These should include, but not be limited to a plan view of | ||||
| drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views. | ||||
| Balanced reporting | | Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is not | | Refer Table 1 |
| practicable, representative reporting of both low and high grades | ||||
| and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of | ||||
