In light of the recently received results, which are expected to have a material impact on the updated resource estimate for Sandy Creek, completion of the new resource figure will be delayed to enable all of the results from Sandy Creek to be incorporated. TNG’s independent resource consultants, CSA Australia Pty Ltd, have advised they will be unable to complete the Sandy Creek resource upgrade prior to Xmas due to the volume of recently received and expected results and now anticipate the resource work will be completed early in the New Year.

Samples from the Djibitgun Prospect, located 18km north-east of Sandy Creek, have been dispatched to the laboratory and results are awaited. Once all results are received, they will be collated and work will commence on an initial resource estimate for this deposit – representing the first additional resource for the Manbarrum Project outside of the immediate Sandy Creek area.

Yours faithfully TNG LTD
