**About
Botswana
Metals**
Botswana
Metals
is
exploring
for
nickel, copper,
cobalt,
tantalum
and
lithium
within
its ~1,500
square
kilometre
exploration
portfolio. 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[th] 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.
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
BML’s
exploration
portfolio remain
unexplored.
**COMPANY
UPDATE
AND
SPP
CLEANSING
NOTICE**
**Drill
program**
The
drill
program
at
PL
111/94
announced
to
the
ASX
on
13
August
2017
is continuing.
Samples
from
the
first
8
holes
out
of
the
18
hole
program
have
been sent
to
SGS,
an
independent
laboratory
in
South
Africa,
for
analysis.
It
is
expected that
results
from
these
samples
will
be
received
by
the
end
of
October.
The
visual inspection
of
RC
percussion
drill
chips
has
confirmed
intersections
of
malachite and
chalcocite
for
potential
copper
and
silver
mineralisation
(refer
ASX announcement
released
on
18
September
2017).
The
SGS
laboratory
results should
confirm
the
extent
of
any
copper
and
other
mineralisation.
The
Company last
drilled
the
area
in
2011.
The
drill
program
will
be
completed
in
the
December quarter
and
all
further
results
received
by
the
end
of
the
December
quarter.
