Clifford Elphick, Non-Executive Chairman of ZIOC, commented:
"During the first half of 2024, ZIOC completed a successful technical evaluation process with its Chinese EPC Partner to secure Chinese contractor pricing and to update the cost estimates of the 30Mtpa Feasibility Study. This is a completely different exercise to the study work conducted by consulting firms in the past, as the Chinese EPC Partner is a constructor and developer of iron ore mining projects, with specific expertise in slurry pipelines and pellet feed concentrate processing. We were delighted with the results and are pleased to have demonstrated the continued robust economics of the Zanaga Project.
Furthermore, port infrastructure discussions continue, and strategic partners remain interested in the Project. Volatile financial markets have delayed our engagement with these entities but we continue to remain positive on the potential to secure interest in the project in due course.
Following the repayment of Glencore's loan I am delighted that ZIOC is debt free. This is key to supporting management's engagement with strategic partners, and I look forward to the management team progressing the next phase of this initiative."

About us:
Zanaga Iron Ore Company Limited (AIM ticker: ZIOC) is an iron ore exploration and development company, with the Company's flagship asset being its 100% owned Zanaga Iron Ore Project located in the Republic of Congo, for which the Government Mining Licence, Environmental Permit and Mining Convention are all in place.
Business Review - Operations
Iron Ore Market
The iron ore market has seen volatility of late, with a significant reduction in benchmark pricing due to concerns over growth in China. However, recent stimulus from the Chinese government has renewed iron ore pricing to the same levels to which we have become accustomed. China continues to consume significant quantities of iron ore to feed its substantial steel industry and initiatives to produce lower carbon emission 'green steel' provide further support for premium pricing related to high grade iron ore products. This provides further impetus for the development of high grade iron ore projects such as the Zanaga Project.
2024 FS update process
In 2023 the Company partnered with a Chinese iron ore technical expert engineering firm ("Chinese EPC Partner") as part of a process to update the economic evaluation of the Zanaga 30 Mtpa staged development project.
Using the 2014 Feasibility Study's ("2014 FS") infrastructure designs, flowsheets and material take off lists, direct and indirect cost estimates were updated to current market pricing using Chinese major equipment and contractor pricing for both phases of 12 Mtpa Stage One haematite ("Stage One"), plus 18 Mtpa Stage Two magnetite expansion ("Stage Two") projects, inclusive of buried concentrate pipeline and port infrastructure.
A second phase of optimisation work ("Optimisation Study") is under consideration and involves investigating the potential to apply proprietary iron ore processing technology that the Chinese EPC Partner possesses, with the potential to provide further capital and operating cost savings beyond the results of the 2024 FS Update.
The 2024 FS update was completed to a (+/- 20% accuracy) full feasibility study level of definition, with the following positive results:
§ 12Mtpa Stage One
- Capital investment of US$ 1.94 billlion
- Operating cost of US$ 31.5 / dmt FOB
- Net Present Value of US$ 3.68 billion
- Internal Rate of Return of 26.2%
§ 18Mtpa Stage Two optional expansion
- Capital investment of US$ 1.87 billion
- Operating cost of US$ 24.9 / dmt FOB
- Total combined Net Present Value of US$ 7.36 billion
- Internal Rate of Return of 28.2%
The Company believes these positive results provide much greater confidence in the Project's economic feasibility in today's market and cost environment, and with this, provides a key catalyst for potential strategic investors to consider funding of the next logical Project phase, being the front end engineering and design (FEED) program to further define the Project's physical elements and risk abatement strategies.
Port infrastructure discussions underway
Discussions are in progress with a large port infrastructure development firm to investigate opportunities to align the Zanaga Project with their planned port infrastructure facilities in Pointe-Noire. Consideration is being given to both of the following port infrastructure initiatives:
· Opportunity for expansion of the existing port of Pointe-Noire, potentially enabling a larger solution for the EPP Project.
· Potential development solutions for a large bulk mineral port terminal capable of supporting the Zanaga 30Mtpa staged development project.
EPP Project
Whilst ZIOC's focus during 2023 was on advancing the 2024 FS update process, the Project Team continued to undertake a process to evaluate the potential development of an EPP Project that would be quicker to construct than the larger 30Mtpa staged development project and would utilise existing road, rail and port infrastructure.
The Project Team continued to advance efforts to develop optionality relating to the viability of the EPP Project. The Project Team has continued to evaluate the potential for the EPP Project to operate as a standalone project, or as an initial pathway to production during the construction period of the flagship 30Mtpa Staged Development Project.
Subscription Agreement with Shard Merchant Capital Ltd
The Company has been pleased with the success of the 2020 and 2023 ESA with SMC which has provided the Company with access to funding through a relatively low cost structure that minimised dilution to shareholders.
The proceeds received by the Company from SMC pursuant to the Subscription Agreement have been applied to general working capital, including the provision of further contributions to the Zanaga Project's operations.
As a result, the Company has entered into a new 2024 ESA with SMC on 1 July 2024, post period end. An overview of the two ESAs is provided below:
1) 2023 ESA
a. On 1 July 2023 ZIOC announced that the Company had entered into a Subscription Agreement with SMC, a financial services provider.
b. Under the Subscription Agreement, the Company agreed to issue and SMC agreed to subscribe for up to 36 million ordinary shares of no par value in the Company ("Subscription Shares") in three tranches of 12 million shares each
c. Total net proceeds of £2,266,255 were received from the facility
2) 2024 ESA
a. As announced by the Company, on 1 July 2024 the Company entered into a new Subscription Agreement (the 2024 ESA) with SMC.
b. Under the Subscription Agreement, the Company will issue and SMC will subscribe for 36 million ordinary shares of no par value in the Company ("Subscription Shares") in three tranches of 12 million shares each (the First tranche was issued immediately on 1 July 2024).
On 1 July, SMC completed a block sale of 14,380,953 shares at a price of 5.25 pence per share ("Trade Price") (the "SMC Block Sale"), and simultaneously the Company completed subscriptions of new ordinary shares at the Trade Price with Glencore, of approximately US$ 300,000 in aggregate; and Mr Clifford Elphick of approximately US$ 20,000 in aggregate. The entirety of the Company's remaining US$744k outstanding loan to Glencore at the time was repaid on 10 July 2024 as a result of this receipt of funding. ZIOC remains debt free, a positive step in enabling the advancement of further discussions with potential strategic partners.
Appointment of joint Corporate Broker
In March 2024 ZIOC appointed Shard Capital Partners LLP ("SCP") as Joint Corporate Broker, alongside Panmure Liberum Limited, who are also the Company's Nominated Advisor and Joint Broker. The addition of SCP to ZIOC's advisory team provides further support to the Company, and additional resources as the Company looks to advance to the next stage of development on the Zanaga Project.
Director resignation
Following Denis Weinstein's departure from Glencore, with effect from 29 September 2024, he will cease to be a director of the Company. Glencore will consider its right to appoint a replacement director to the Board of ZIOC in due course.
Cash Reserves and Project Funding
As at 29 June 2024, ZIOC has outlined a 2024 Project Work Programme and Budget as outlined below.
At 30 June 2024 the Company had cash reserves of US$0.09m The Company had cash reserves of US$0.08m as at 10th September 2024.
In order to raise additional funding the Company entered a Subscription Agreement with SMC (as described above). The financing structure with SMC enables the Company to access funding for the costs that the Company is expected to meet in the near future. For illustrative purposes only, if the average price at which SMC places the 36,000,000 shares was 5.49 pence (being ZIOC's 90 day value weighted average share price as at 28 September 2023), the net proceeds received by ZIOC from such sales would be approximately £1.98m. Based on the current cost base at the Zanaga Project, the direct loan facility to Jumelles Ltd, the current low corporate overheads of ZIOC, the agreed cash preservation plan adopted by the Company (described below), the Company's existing cash reserves and (on the basis of cautious assumptions made by the Company in its funding model) the funds expected to be obtained from the funding facility established by the Subscription Agreement with SMC, the board of directors of ZIOC (the "Board") believes that the Company will be adequately positioned to support its operations going forward in the near future. As the final cash amounts to be received for each tranche of issued shares, and the timing of this receipt, are dependent on SMC successfully selling the shares prior to transferring funds to the Company, the Board is of the view that the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate. However, the Board acknowledges that there is a material uncertainty which could give rise to significant doubt over the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and, therefore, that the Company may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Nevertheless, based on and taking into account the foregoing factors, the Board are satisfied the Company will have sufficient funds to meet its own working capital requirements up to, and beyond, twelve months from the approval of these accounts.
The Company continues to review the costs of its operational activities with a view to conserving its cash resources.

Notes to the financial statements
1. Business information and going concern basis of preparation
As at 29 June 2024, ZIOC has outlined a 2024 Project Work Programme and Budget as outlined below.
At 30 June 2024 the Company had cash reserves of US$0.09m The Company had cash reserves of US$0.08m as at 10th September 2024.
In order to raise additional funding the Company entered a Subscription Agreement with SMC (as described above). The financing structure with SMC enables the Company to access funding for the costs that the Company is expected to meet in the near future. For illustrative purposes only, if the average price at which SMC places the 36,000,000 shares was 5.49 pence (being ZIOC's 90 day value weighted average share price as at 28 September 2023), the net proceeds received by ZIOC from such sales would be approximately £1.98m. Based on the current cost base at the Zanaga Project, the direct loan facility to Jumelles Ltd, the current low corporate overheads of ZIOC, the agreed cash preservation plan adopted by the Company (described below), the Company's existing cash reserves and (on the basis of cautious assumptions made by the Company in its funding model) the funds expected to be obtained from the funding facility established by the Subscription Agreement with SMC, the board of directors of ZIOC (the "Board") believes that the Company will be adequately positioned to support its operations going forward in the near future. As the final cash amounts to be received for each tranche of issued shares, and the timing of this receipt, are dependent on SMC successfully selling the shares prior to transferring funds to the Company, the Board is of the view that the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate. However, the Board acknowledges that there is a material uncertainty which could give rise to significant doubt over the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and, therefore, that the Company may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Nevertheless, based on and taking into account the foregoing factors, the Board are satisfied the Company will have sufficient funds to meet its own working capital requirements up to, and beyond, twelve months from the approval of these accounts.
The Company continues to review the costs of its operational activities with a view to conserving its cash resources.
