ASX Announcement

6 April 2021

Platina to fund gold growth through sale of Major Precious Metals shares.

Pla�na Resources Limited’s (ASX: PGM) strategy to build its gold presence in Western Australia has received a major boost with the company receiving approximately AUD $2.64 million from the sale of 6 million shares in Major Precious Metals Corp. (CSE: SIZE, Major).

Pla�na Managing Director Corey Nolan said that the company would s�ll hold 49 million Major shares following the transac�on with a value of approximately AUD $23 million.

“We are moving full steam ahead to build a gold por�olio in Western Australia. Western Australia is a world class geological des�na�on with excellent support infrastructure, and amongst the world’s best permi�ng and development approval regimes.” Mr Nolan said.

“Selling some of our Major shares was the best op�on to secure new funding for growth. Raising capital through an offering of Pla�na shares when we have a nega�ve enterprise value, and they are trading at substan�al discount to our investment por�olio valua�on wasn’t deemed to be the op�mal capital management strategy”.

“The sale process also addresses concerns about the liquidity of our investments and capacity to realise value,” he said.

Mr Nolan said he remained very op�mis�c about the future poten�al of Major with the company poised to release a new mineral resource es�mate, commence a Preliminary Economic Assessment, and complete a substan�al drilling program later this year.

“This all comes at a �me when we are seeing record prices for palladium metal which last traded at US$2,662 per ounce, a substan�al premium to the current gold price,” he said.

“We remain very op�mis�c about the outlook for precious metals which posi�vely impacts our asset and investment por�olio.”

This announcement was authorised by Mr Corey Nolan, Managing Director of Pla�na Resources Limited.
