The Company is focused on acquiring and developing cash generative, high quality projects which meet local market demand for commodities and utilising this cash flow to undertake value added exploration. In September 2011, Strategic Minerals purchased its first cash generating asset; the Cobre magnetite tailings dam project in New Mexico, USA which it brought into production in 2012 and which continues to provide a revenue stream for the Company. The portfolio was expanded in January 2016 with the acquisition of shares in Central Australian Rare Earths Pty Ltd, which holds tenements in Western Australia and the Northern Territory that are prospective for nickel sulphides, gold and rare earths. In May 2016, an additional exploration asset was acquired when the company entered into an agreement with New Age Exploration Limited to acquire up to 50% of the Redmoor Tin/Tungsten project in Cornwall, UK. This 50% acquisition has now been completed.

Re: Well worth a read Strategic Minerals' Cornish exploration adds to attractive mix, says brokerShare - 16:10 10 Mar 2017A punchy 1.31p price target could rise if a drilling programme in Cornwall is a success.SP Angel has started coverage of junior miner Strategic Minerals PLC (LON:SML) with a punchy 1.31p price target, which could rise if a drilling programme in Cornwall is a success.The broker says that Strategic is unusual for a junior in that cashflow from its tailings operation at Cobre New Mexico is sufficient to cover corporate costs while allowing it to explore new projects.“The portfolio of both Australian nickel/cobalt and Cornish tin projects further diversifies the company’s risk profile from both a commodity and geographical perspective.“The forthcoming drilling programme in Cornwall seeks to extend the vertical and lateral extent of the known deposit at Redmoor [tin and tungsten] and to upgrade the resource estimate from its current inferred status.“A successful outcome to this programme provides potential uplift to our base case value estimate of £16.0m.”

Substantial New Client at Cobre Strategic Minerals13 Mar 2017 11:58:39Strategic MineralsRNS Number : 2835ZStrategic Minerals PLC13 March 2017 Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) DisclosureCertain information contained in this announcement would have been deemed inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 until the release of this announcement. 13 March 2017 Strategic Minerals plc("Strategic Minerals" or the "Company" or "SML" Substantial New Client at Cobre Strategic Minerals PLC (AIM: SML; USOTC; SMCDY), the diversified mineral production and development company, is pleased to announce that its subsidiary Southern Minerals Group ("SMG", the operator of the Cobre magnetite stockpile, signed a contract on Friday 10 March with a private company, Galvin Investment Company ("GIC" for the sale of up to 350,000 tons of magnetite at a market based price over several years, subject to availability. Before the contract becomes effective, GIC must provide a US $100,000 Letter of Credit from an acceptable bank. The contract calls for a minimum purchase of 2,000 tons per month and logistics at the mine site would result in a maximum supply, above existing client demand, of 6,000 tons per month. This would effectively double annual sales from Cobre, which is likely to be achieved without affecting SMG's effective net profit margin of between 40% to 45% of sales revenue. The contract will terminate if, at any time, SMG loses access to the magnetite stockpile. Commenting, John Peters, Managing Director of Strategic Minerals, said: "While we are delighted with the prospect of undertaking this contract with Galvin Investment Company, the Board wishes to emphasise the need to temper expectations and for caution to be applied until the security Letter of Credit is provided and sales commence. This process may take up to 30 days before the contract would effectively commence. We will update the market as soon as the contract comes into effect."

RNS Redmoor Drilling Strategic Minerals02 Mar 2017 0707Strategic MineralsRNS Number : 2813YStrategic Minerals PLC02 March 2017 Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) DisclosureCertain information contained in this announcement would have been deemed inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 until the release of this announcement. 2 March 2017 Strategic Minerals plc("Strategic Minerals" or the "Company" or "SML" Drilling to commence at Redmoor Tin/Tungsten Project in CornwallContract signed with Energold Drilling Strategic Minerals PLC (AIM: SML; USOTC; SMCDY), the diversified mineral production and development company, is pleased to announce that Cornwall Resources Limited, its joint venture company with New Age Exploration Limited ("NAE", has completed the necessary arrangements for drilling to commence on site at its Redmoor Tin/Tungsten Project, Cornwall ('Redmoor') and has signed a contract with Energold Drilling for a two phase drilling programme aimed at extending the defined high grade resource at Redmoor. The first phase of the drilling programme will see 13 holes drilled followed by a second phase of 10 additional holes. There is provision for a further six holes subject to additional planning and land owner approvals. In light of approval from local government bodies (both Cornwall Council and Callington Town Council), support shown at community meetings, as well as land access having been acquired and the signing of the drilling contract, mobilisation has commenced and the first exploration hole is expected to be drilled at the end of March 2017. Commenting, Peter Wale, Director of both Strategic Minerals and Cornwall Resources Limited, said: "The early commencement of the drilling programme is a key milestone in our plans to develop Redmoor into a producing mine. The aim of the programme is to confirm and extend the high grade resource at Redmoor. "We are particularly pleased that arrangements to undertake the drilling programme were prepared with support from the local community. The work of our highly experienced exploration team (notably Jeff Harrison, Community Advisor and Brett Grist, newly appointed Exploration Manager) has placed us ahead of schedule and ensured that drilling will occur in more favourable climate conditions. The speed with which this has been achieved is also a credit to our joint venture partners NAE and their Managing Director Gary Fietz, who have played a major role in preparing for drilling. "The Company expects to complete both phases of the drilling programme this year and anticipates being in a position to update the market on the results from initial drill holes in the third quarter of 2017."

The identification of these cobalt readings in two of the 2016 drilling cores is extremely encouraging as their positioning provides us the opportunity to further assess the possible exploration target at a reasonable capital cost. We are also encouraged by the fact that the drilling programme has identified the strike length to be at least two kilometres." Further InformationThe cobalt mineralisation at Hanns Camp is considered significant and geologically unique given the zone overlaps, and is coincident with 10m at 0.4g/t total Platinum Group Elements ('PGE') from 36m and peak values up to 21.3% chromium ("Cr" and 19% manganese ("Mn".· HC003 recorded 10m @ 0.4g/t total PGE from 36mFurther analysis is being carried out. No previous cobalt analysis had been conducted prior to re-assaying three diamond holes (as previously reported on 3 August 2016). Very limited previous drilling has occurred over the prospect and is summarised below.· 15-hole open percussion programme drilled in 1971 and 1977 totalling 808 metres · 27-hole air-core programme drilled in 2007 on two regional traverses totalling 906 metres Although no direct cobalt analysis exists, geological logging shows an intact and well preserved lateritic enrichment zone. The extent of this enrichment zone at Hanns Camp has the potential to host a significant exploration target. Drilling to date has traced this over a two kilometre strike length.Cobalt is of increasing interest given the shortage of supply and increasing demand for lithium ion batteries. All reported cobalt and platinum results in this announcement were determined by Bureau Veritas Minerals laboratory in Perth, one of Australia's leading minerals laboratories. Nickel was determined via mixed acid digest, followed by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy ('ICP-AES') detection. PGEs were determined via fire assay followed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry determination.Hanns Camp forms part the Laverton Project, of which Strategic Minerals recently secured an interest via its agreement to acquire up to a 50% of Central Australian Rare Earths Pty Ltd ("CARE". Hanns Camp is located 250 kilometres north-east of the city of Kalgoorlie-Boulder, 12 kilometres north-east

Re: Opinion from LSE 2 Why invest in SML? LSE- no debt, warrants or dilutive financial arrangements - solid trustworthy management, the best i know in this market, with bod/management holding significant shares - cash generative covering day to day operations with a surplus (rare on micro caps, AIM, and i think the accounts that are due shortly will show a better than expected profit). - negotiation of cobre contract underway for 3-4 year deal (currently 1) - several projects that could propel the business to a new level, even minimum success at one project will more than cover the current valuation so little down side great risk / reward. - a promise of no dilution until minimum end of 2017 - a market of increasing commodity prices - updates due and planned activities to add value into 2017 - close neighbour at HC uncovered a giant with similar initial results to SML - Redmore project could hold significant value alone possibly of multiples of current market cap, also an already proven resource in place - 2 projects should be worth 70m each according to CEO! (140m is a share price of 10-12p!) - Bod options at 1.5p and 3p - so id imagine they believe that they will be able to take these up! if someone can think of any negatives im listening...

Opinion from LSE With thanks to Goldfinger on ADVFNThis is just the start. From LSE :Great week or so doubling up but the good news hasn't even started yet. Another point worth making is that all our projects are in stable western countries, uk, Aus etc.. too many aim companies have projects in far flung territories with all the polical problems and red tape that comes with it. The recent investor presentation mentions the fact that we intend to see Redmoor through to production and run the mine creating a few hindred jobs and contributing to the local economy. It might be that HC is too big for us and will be sold once proved up, hopefully for a huge amount and a special dividend for loyal holders. I can see redmoor proving over 15m tonnes making it a world class asset and prioviding 10/20/30 times our current MC alone. I really believe in 2 years time we will be in our way to becoming a mid tier minor with a sp in the double digit pence. Whether that's 10 or 40 will be dependant on a bit of luck with the drill bit and comodity prices but if everything goes our way there could be a few on here handing in their notices. The price will fluctuate but the only way to make the big bucks is to hold for 18 months and watch your investment grow however tempting it is to sell. Will be easier to do that once will see the results coming in our NAV going up and up. Long and strong into 2018. Silver.
