The Placing was arranged through the Company's joint broker, Peterhouse Capital Limited ("Peterhouse").
Mr Patrick Cheetham, Executive Chairman of the Company, has subscribed £20,000 for 25,000,000 Placing Shares as part of the Placing. Mr Cheetham's subscription constitutes a related party transaction in accordance with AIM Rule 13. The independent directors of the Company (being Mr Donald McAlister and Dr Mike Armitage), having consulted with SP Angel Corporate Finance LLP, the Company's nominated adviser, consider that the terms of Mr Cheetham's participation in the Placing are fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned.
Following the issue of the Placing Shares, Mr. Cheetham will be beneficially interested in 46,465,000 Ordinary Shares (including 2,843,625 Ordinary Shares held by his wife, Karen Cheetham), representing approximately 1.80% of the Company's enlarged issued share capital.

The Broker Engagement Warrants will not be admitted to trading on any exchange.
The Placing Shares are being issued under the Company's existing share issue authorities.
Use of Proceeds
The net funds raised will be applied to exploration activities at the Company's projects in Zambia and Nevada and working capital.
