THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONTAINS INSIDE INFORMATION FOR THE PURPOSES OF ARTICLE 7 OF REGULATION 2014/596/EU WHICH IS PART OF DOMESTIC
HALF-YEARLY FINANCIAL REPORT
(“IMC” or the “Company”)
IMC is pleased to announce the Company’s unaudited half-yearly financial report for the six-month period ended
Chairman’s Statement
In the six months to
Karaberd Mining Licence
We were pleased to announce on
The licence renewal provided for underground mining and the Company has entered into contracts to enable completion of the preparatory works. These are progressing well and will enable the finalisation of the currently ongoing contract negotiations with a major underground mining company who will manage the mining project. Further developments will be announced as appropriate.
Gold Production Commenced
As outlined in the last annual report, a technical audit of the Masis gold refining plant (to 999 fineness) was conducted in
The other main challenge, previously outlined, was that the Masis plant had relatively low capacity, which we have addressed in cooperation with corporate advisors
As I write, the first 120 tonnes of concentrate have been delivered to the Masis Plant where the concentrate is added to lower grade ore already stored at the plant and the mix then processed. The concentrate along with ore already stored at the plant will be refined in batches, generating a steady stream of cashflows for the Company.
On
Other Projects in
While the Company’s primary focus over the last year has revolved around obtaining the Karaberd mining licence renewal and, along with the associates of our major investor Mineral Ventures Invest, getting the Company into a position where we can control our production of gold right up to 999 fineness, the Company did maintain contact with other parties in relation to two other projects, one being a prospective copper related project. Further announcements on any developments in relation to these two projects will be made as appropriate.

IMC was very pleased to have been able to announce on
The fact that the level of gold in pyrite analysed at Boley in PL 2551 is similar to that in pyrite phases which host gold at the 6,000,000-ounce Curraghinalt deposit in
Great interest was shown in our latest published report on PL 2551 by parties at the recent
In conclusion, IMC has achieved transformative progress across our entire portfolio, both during the period and post period end, and having our Karaberd licence renewed to 2035, we now have a very solid platform from which to accelerate our development and deliver sustained value to our shareholders.
