Metal Tiger - Quarterly Activities Report (Video)
Fri, 05 Aug 2016, 09:00am BST

Metal Tiger continues to advance its business model at a tremendous pace, in line with our stated observations of a recovering natural resource sector and the need to act promptly to broaden and consolidate interests whilst opportunities remain available at lower priced entry levels.

“Immense opportunities in the market with a tonne more to do", says Metal Tiger chief
11:25 05 Aug 2016

Proactive Investors speaks to Paul Johnson, chief executive of Metal Tiger PLC (LON:MTR) as the mining investment group enters its “terrible twos.”

“We need to make sure in all the busyness and chaos, we don’t lose sight of the immense opportunities that are still in the market and we capture the value from them for Metal Tiger shareholders.”

Johnson agrees that a new natural resources sector dawn is on the horizon. “It’s a cyclical business and it has huge peaks and huge troughs at the end other end, and you move like this up and down on a crazy basis over a period of time. The Botswana project is a perfect example of being able to buy in at a low cost opportunity at the bottom,” and the group's Spanish interests also continued to develop he adds.

“I can assure you Spain is going to come back to life in terms of people’s understanding and excitement and people will understand the potential there.”

Johnson wants the market value to reflect what Metal Tiger is doing now as well, but “Everything is available for the right price at the right time.”

Amongst the strong business, fantastic projects and opportunities, “there’s a tonne more we can do.”

The group plans to create a new vehicle for the pipeline and certain elements of its trading business.

What about the next two years? “It would be difficult to say what’s happening even in six months’ time because things are going so fast,” adds a tired and slimmer Johnson.

Botswana RC Drilling Intersects Copper at T2

Metal Tiger plc (LON:MTR) the London Stock Exchange AIM listed investor in strategic natural resource opportunities is pleased to provide an update with regard to regional exploration results at the Companys Joint Venture (JV) project with partners MOD Resources (ASX:MOD) in the Kalahari Copper Belt in Botswana (70% MOD Resources / 30% Metal Tiger).

Details of Technical highlights in respect of the initial drilling findings at the regional target T2 are provided below. In addition, we would refer to the announcement released today by MOD Resources which contains images and diagrams that may assist readers in an understanding of the project and the exploration work being undertaken. This announcement can be viewed through the following link.

http://search.asx.com.au/s/search.html?query=mod&collection=asx-meta&profile=web

Paul Johnson Chief Executive Officer of Metal Tiger commented

I am delighted to report the confirmation of new copper mineralisation at T2 West following drill testing of the soil sampling anomalies we reported on 13 July 2016. Given the tenor of the soil copper anomalies at T2 East and T2 West, at over three times higher than the 28ppm Cu anomalies that led to the discovery of T3, we had expected the drilling to show copper mineralisation. However, given the shallow depth of that mineralisation, and apparently significant mineralised intersections, we especially look forward to receiving the assay data in order to establish actual intersection grades and widths. In the meantime, we are also excited by the prospect of further copper intersections, down-dip and along strike at T2 West

Highlights:

Reverse Circulation Drilling at T2

• T2 the first of the new copper anomalies identified by regional soil geochemistry sampling, has confirmed copper mineralisation in the first two reverse circulation (RC) holes drilled at T2 West, located 20km north of the T3 Resource Drilling area. T2 is the first new JV target to be drilled since the discovery of T3 in March 2016.

• MO-G-52R and MO-G-53R are the first two holes in an initial programme of target test drilling which commenced on 10 August. Both holes intersected copper oxide and sulphide minerals at shallow depth.

• MO-G-52R intersected 15m of visible copper oxide and sulphide mineralisation from 55m downhole.

• MO-G-53R intersected 10m of visible copper oxide and sulphide mineralisation from 8m downhole.

• Visual logging of drill chips has identified the copper minerals chysocolla, malachite, chalcocite and bornite. The drill samples will now be assayed and the results reported in due course.

• With the positive visual copper intersections in these two holes, drilling is continuing down dip of MO-G-52R and will then continue along strike to the east, initially on 250m spaced sections. Where results deem appropriate the RC drilling will be followed up by diamond drilling. This regional target drilling is in addition to the ongoing resource drilling programme at T3.

• T2 currently consists two strong copper in soil anomalies spaced approximately 12km apart;

• T2-West has consistently high copper values up to 87ppm Cu over a circa 1.5km wide zone;

• T2-East has consistently high copper values up to 83ppm Cu over a circa 1.5km wide zone.

• T2-West is located 20km north of T3 and 3.5km west of MODs 100% owned high-grade Mahumo copper/silver deposit (T1); and T2-East is 25km north of T3 and 5.5km east of Mahumo (T1). Both T2 anomalies are interpreted from magnetic geophysics survey data, to be associated with folding of the prospective Mahumo geological contact and are located directly along strike from the Mahumo deposit.

• There is no outcrop and minimal previous drilling on MOD/MTR licences, which cover the 20km wide structural zone interpreted from magnetics between the T3 Dome and mineralised T1/T2 contact.

Regional Exploration Programme

The Regional Exploration Programme, consists an initial 6-month work schedule being conducted by two teams, each with a dedicated geologist and soil sampling crew, and two dedicated RC drilling rigs to test soil sampling and induced polarisation (IP) geophysics anomalies which are identified.

One RC rig is currently employed at T2 West as outlined above, whilst the other RC rig has commenced drilling at T8 (100% MOD), a copper soil anomaly which is located approximately 60km east of T3.

The T2 West RC holes, are both inclined (320 azimuth/-60 dip), MO-G-52R reached 135m and MO-G-53R reached 55m.

T3 Resource Drilling Update

The Phase 1 Resource Drilling Programme at T3 is progressing as planned with four diamond drill rigs currently in operation on the 1km long area. The Phase 1 Resource estimate is expected to be completed by end of September, whilst the open pit scoping study is also progressing and scheduled for completion by the end of December. An update on the T3 resource drilling results and progress will be announced shortly.

Location

The MOD/MTR joint venture Botswana Copper/Silver Project is located on the Kalahari Copper Belt in northern Botswana. The T3 Phase 1 Resource Drilling area is located approximately 70km NE of the projects Tshimologo (T4) Prospect and is located parallel to the same structural trend known as the Mahumo Structural Corridor, that hosts MODs Mahumo Project (circa 20km NE of T3) and Cupric Capitals Banana Zone Deposit (60km NE) and Zone 5 Project (120km NE).

The exploration work is being managed on the ground, in accordance with JORC 2012 best practice, by MODs Competent Person, Mr Jacques Janse van Rensburg, BSc (Hons), General Manager Exploration (Africa).

The technical information contained in this disclosure has been read and approved by Mr Nick O'Reilly (MSc, DIC, MAusIMM, FGS), who is a qualified geologist who meets the criteria of a qualified person under the AIM Rules - Note for Mining and Oil & Gas Companies. Mr O'Reilly has visited the T3 site and reviewed MODs drilling and sampling protocols and procedures. Mr O'Reilly is a consultant working for Mining Analyst Consulting Ltd which has been retained by Metal Tiger PLC to provide technical support.

Metal Tiger confirms mineralisation at Kalahari copper belt's T2 West
09:10 15 Aug 2016

Given the variety of copper minerals identified at shallow depth, it is not possible to estimate a percentage for each mineral present or a grade for the mineralisation until assays are received



Copper mineralisation has been confirmed at T2 West on the property being jointly developed by Metal Tiger PLC (LON:MTR) and MOD Resources Ltd (ASX:MOD).

Metal Tiger, which owns 30% of the project in the Kalahari copper belt, said copper (Cu) mineralisation was confirmed in both of the first two reverse circulation (RC) holes drilled at T2 West, which is located 20 kilometres north of the T3 resource drilling area.

Hole MO-G-52R intersected 15 metres (m) of visible copper oxide and sulphide mineralisation from 55m down hole. Hole MO-G-53R intersected 10m of visible copper oxide and sulphide mineralisation from 8m down hole.

With the positive visual copper intersections in these two holes, drilling is continuing down dip of MO-G-52R and will then continue along strike to the east, initially on 250m spaced sections. Where results deem appropriate the RC drilling will be followed up by diamond drilling, Metal Tiger said. This regional target drilling is in addition to the ongoing resource drilling programme at T3.

Talking of T3, the phase one resource drilling programme there is proceeding according to plan, with four diamond drill rigs currently in operation on the target area, which is one kilometre in length.

“I am delighted to report the confirmation of new copper mineralisation at T2 West following drill testing of the soil sampling anomalies we reported on 13 July 2016,” said Paul Johnson, chief executive officer of the Aim-listed investment company focused on the natural resources sector.

“Given the tenor of the soil copper anomalies at T2 East and T2 West, at over three times higher than the 28ppm [parts per million] Cu anomalies that led to the discovery of T3, we had expected the drilling to show copper mineralisation; however, given the shallow depth of that mineralisation, and apparently significant mineralised intersections, we especially look forward to receiving the assay data in order to establish actual intersection grades and widths,” he added.

“In the meantime, we are also excited by the prospect of further copper intersections, down-dip and along strike at T2 West,” Johnson revealed.

Julian Hanna, managing director of MOD, said: “While our geologists are excited by the potential for a new discovery at T2 West, assay results are required to provide an indication of copper grades in MO-G-52R and MO-G-53R.”

Shares in Metal Tiger rose 2.8% to 4.14p on the news. Shares in MOD closed 2.1% higher in Aussie trading this morning.

SPANISH EXPLORATION UPDATE: NEW GOLD ANOMALY

Metal Tiger (LON: MTR), the natural resources investing company is pleased to provide an update regarding project developments in Extremadura, Spain.

Highlights:

• Soil sampling and alteration mapping at the Logrosán Gold and Tungsten Joint Venture (JV) project has delineated a new gold target area ‘Logrosán South’, located in the south of the project’s Antonio Caño and (the recently awarded) San Cristóbal exploration licence areas. This new target area is in addition to the ‘El Seranillo North’ gold target area reported on 5th April 2016.

• Soil samples analysed for gold by ALS Minerals laboratories have defined a 2km long gold in soil anomaly (up to 0.89g/t Au), which appears to be associated with two parallel structures identified by ground magnetics. Further soil samples analysed for gold using our JV partner’s own laboratory in Finland have shown that the anomaly can be traced over a total 6km long strike distance.

• Samples were collected over a total of 70 profiles, spaced at between 50m – 200m, the anomaly is currently open at one end.

• A programme of further follow-up investigation for both Logrosán South and El Seranillo North is scheduled for September, once the Spanish field team have returned from their scheduled summer break. This follow-up will run in conjunction with the ongoing work on the Maria Licence. Further details of these works will be provided in due course.

Paul Johnson CEO of Metal Tiger said: “We are excited to report the identification of an additional gold target for our Logrosán Gold & Tungsten Project. The addition of the Logrosán South gold anomaly is particularly significant given its current 6km length and its good correlation with structures indicated by our ground magnetics survey work.

We consider that we have a very strong, and growing, pipeline of gold and tungsten targets in what is turning out to be a highly mineralised region.

We look forward to providing further updates, as the field team recommences ground work in early September.”

Project Background

Location and Region

The Logrosán Gold and Tungsten Project is located in a geologically prospective, under-explored and mining friendly jurisdiction in west-central Spain within the province of Cáceres in the Extremadura autonomous region. The Project is served by a well-developed and maintained road network, with good power, water and telecommunications infrastructure and enjoys the full support of the regional and local government and administration.

Neighbouring Properties

There are three public listed exploration and pre-production development companies located within the surrounding region. The W Resources Plc La Parrilla tungsten mine is 43km south-west of the Project area; the Emerita Resources Corporation Las Morras Gold Project is 6km to the south; and the Berkeley Energia Gambuta uranium deposit is 40km north.

Background to the Logrosán Joint Venture

Metal Tiger entered into a Joint Venture with Logrosán Minerals Ltd (a Special Purpose Vehicle "SPV" company incorporated in the UK) on 13 March 2015.

Logrosán Minerals Limited is the joint venture operating company for the Logrosán Exploration Project. During the 18 months prior to the joint venture commencing, Metal Tiger's joint venture partner, Mineral Exploration Network (Finland) Ltd “MEN”, had carried out more than 40,000 soil samples, hundreds of pan-concentrate samples, covered thousands of linear kilometres with ground magnetic survey and assessed electro-magnetic tomography.
