Update on Central Tanami Project and exercise of first put option
On 27 June 2018, the Company announced that Northern Star Resources Limited (“NST”) had advised that commercial production (as defined under the joint venture agreement) will not be achieved by 31 July 2018. Furthermore, based on information available to the Company as at that date, it was not clear when or if commercial production would ultimately be achieved.
Failure to achieve commercial production by 31 July 2018 will render the first put option unexercisable until the date on which commercial production is actually achieved.
The Board is of the opinion that it is in the best interests of the Company’s shareholders to exercise the first put option and, accordingly, has resolved to exercise the first put option in accordance with the terms of the joint venture agreement.
