About Six Sigma Metals:

Six Sigma Metals is exploring for nickel, copper, cobalt, tantalum and lithium within its ~1,500 square kilometre exploration portfolio in Botswana. These “new world” metals are becoming increasingly important as the world switches to cleaner sources of energy.

The company announced a maiden JORC Inferred Resource of 2.38Mt on 28 April 2015 from drilling within a small 185 square kilometre section of its exploration portfolio in which it had entered a joint venture with BCL. At the time cobalt was not included in the resource calculation.

Following the approval of shareholders at the Annual General Meeting of the Company on 27 November 2017, the change of name of the Company from BOTSWANA METALS LIMITED to SIX SIGMA METALS LIMITED has been registered by ASIC.

ASX has advised that the change of name will take effect in relation to the Company’s securities on 11 December 2017, after which the Company’s shares will be quoted under the new stock code SI6.

Issue of shares under SPP

The Company advises that it has issued 547,294,744 pre-consolidation shares to the successful applicants under the Share Purchase Plan (“SPP”). The SPP shares were issued pursuant to an offer made under ASIC Class Order [CO 09/425].

SPP options

In accordance with the terms of the SPP, successful applicants under the SPP are entitled to receive one (1) free attaching option for every three (3) shares allocated to them under the SPP. The Company has been advised that, due to ASX technical requirements, it is not possible for the Company to issue the options until after the Company’s securities are consolidated. It is expected that the options will be issued to successful applicants on Friday 8 December 2017.

Appendix 3B

An Appendix 3B is attached.

Mr Patrick Volpe Chairman

Historical drilling outside of the joint venture ground has intercepted further nickel as well as significant intercepts of copper and cobalt.

A soil sampling program detected traces of lithium and tantalum which warrant further exploration.

Large tracts of the Company’s exploration portfolio remain unexplored.
