Diamond Fields Resources Inc. Updates on Progress at Beravina Zircon Project

Pursuant to the Agreement, TMH was granted an option to acquire the Project for an upfront payment of US$250,000 and a commitment to fund the next stage of exploration and development work on Beravina (the "2019 Work Program"). The 2019 Work Program, which has been prepared by TMH, includes a planned drill program comprising 14 drill holes. Some of the drilling will be confirmatory in nature, while other holes are designed to test extensions to the known mineralisation. TMH will also be undertaking further market testing, metallurgical and process design work.
Following approval of the proposed drilling program by the Madagascan Ministry of Mines and Strategic Resources, the Office National pour l'Environnement ("ONE") required an Environmental Impact Assessment ("EIA") covering the drilling programme. DFR supported TMH through the related processing and has submitted the required EIA to ONE for approval. As part of the process, ONE has organised public consultations with the communities around the impacted areas, and is currently in the final stages of the EIA permitting process. Once approved, this EIA can form the basis of a more detailed work that will underpin the development of the Beravina Project.
The Company will provide further updates on progress at Beravina upon approval of the EIA and the commencement of drilling.
