RNS Metal Tiger PLC Botswana Copper/Silver Project – T3 Infill Drilling Results Metal Tiger plc (AIM:MTR), the London Stock Exchange AIM listed investor in strategic natural resource opportunities, is pleased to provide an update on the infill drilling results at the T3 Copper Project (“T3â€), held 100% by MOD Resources Limited (“MODâ€), in the Kalahari Copper Belt, Botswana. Metal Tiger currently holds approximately 10.48% of the issued share capital of MOD. T3 Infill Drilling Highlights -An approximate 60 hole infill drilling programme commenced at T3 during January 2019. Infill drilling is within the boundaries of the first two stages of the proposed T3 open pit, with the objective of upgrading early production into the higher confidence, JORC compliant Measured Resource category. -To date 25 holes have been completed utilising up to three drill rigs, with assay results being received for 11 holes. -Remaining 35 infill drill holes are expected to be completed by the end of the first half of 2019. It is anticipated that the infill drilling programme will be completed after both the proposed T3 open pit Ore Reserve and the Feasibility Study, both of which remain on track for completion by the end of March 2019. -Significant infill results include: Hole MO-G-188D 31.50m @ 2.0% Cu and 36g/t Ag from 86m, including 10.0m @ 4.7% Cu & 98g/t Ag from 105m Hole MO-G-191D 47.0m @ 0.9% Cu and 7g/t Ag from 89m, including 15.3m @ 1.6% Cu & 15g/t Ag from 104m Hole MO-G-192D 13.7m @ 1.6% Cu and 6g/t Ag from 53m 33.0m @ 2.0% Cu and 14g/t Ag from 88m, including 16.0m @ 3.3% Cu & 36g/t Ag from 99m Hole MO-G-193D 17.7m @ 1.4% Cu and 21g/t Ag from 98m, including 6.5m @ 2.5% Cu & 36g/t Ag from 108m Hole MO-G-197D 22.0m @ 1.1% Cu and 10g/t Ag from 95m Michael McNeilly, Chief Executive Officer of Metal Tiger, commented: “We are pleased to report the significant infill drilling intersections from MOD’s T3 project in Botswana. The infill drilling programme is expected to allow a significant portion of the Mineral Resource to be categorised as Measured, with these initial results also providing the prospect of increasing the current open pit Resource. Standout downhole intersections include 31.5 metres at 2% copper from 86 metres, including 10 metres at 4.7% copper from 105 metres, in hole MO-G-188D. Based on MOD’s current projections the T3 feasibility study is expected to be completed by the end of March 2019, with the infill programme completing mid-year.†More via link below: [link]

RNS 7 March 2019 Metal Tiger plc Kalahari Metals Limited – Exploration Update Metal Tiger plc (AIM:MTR), the London Stock Exchange AIM listed investor in strategic natural resource opportunities, is pleased to provide an update regarding Kalahari Metals Limited (“KMLâ€) and the results from KML’s recently completed soil sampling programme together with KML’s re-interpretation of historical data, including magnetic, airborne electromagnetic (AEM) and drill data, over KML’s Kitlanya joint venture licence holding. The results indicate compelling new targets for follow-up in both Kitlanya West (“KIT-Wâ€) and Kitlanya East (“KIT-Eâ€) (together the “Kitlanya Projectâ€), as well as expanding on drill targets identified in KML’s Ngami Copper Project (“NCPâ€). The Company is pleased to confirm that the recent work completed on the Kitlanya Project satisfies the first earn-in option for KML to acquire 25% of the Kitlanya Project from Resource Exploration and Development Limited (“REDâ€), as detailed in the Company’s announcement of 30 November 2018. Highlights: Re-interpretation of magnetic data in KIT-E introduces two new target areas as anticlinal structures rather than historically interpreted synclines. This is supported by historical soil sampling and drill data, effectively placing the prospective mineralised contact in a fold hinge setting at relatively shallow depths under thin cover. The northernmost target is situated 5km south of MOD Resources Limited’s (“MODâ€) T3 deposit. KML has recently completed 3,410 soil samples over KIT-E, which have returned anomalous lead and zinc domains with low concentration copper anomalies associated with the northernmost fold-hinge target. Results provide support for potential mineralisation in the fold structure. Re-processing and inversion of historical AEM data over KIT-W has potentially identified three folded conductive ‘dome’ structures situated in the correct stratigraphy to host copper-silver mineralisation. These targets are considered excellent candidates for drill testing. Re-analysis of a selection of historical soil samples from NCP, using low concentration partial digest TerraleachTM geochemistry, has identified a distinct zoned copper-lead-zinc anomaly associated with a priority fold-closure target from recent AEM interpretation. Michael McNeilly, Chief Executive Officer of Metal Tiger plc, commented: “The results from recently completed soil sampling and re-interpretation of historical data over the Kitlanya Project has provided compelling targets for drill testing. We are actively reviewing KML’s proposed diamond and reverse circulation drilling targets as they relate to this additional interpretation and hope to be able to drill targets at NCP in the near future as well as define drill targets at Kitlanya West and Kitlanya East. We look forward to keeping shareholders updated in this regard.†We recommend that readers also refer to the version of this news release on the Metal Tiger website which includes informative images showing the geophysical interpretations.
