The Tranche 2 Placement consisted of (i) subscriptions for 4,723,944 Shares and 37,478,267 CDIs issued in excess of the number of securities permitted to be issued by the Company without obtaining prior shareholder approval (Placement Capacity) under Listing Rule 7.1 of the Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”), such subscriptions being subject to approval by the Company’s shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1; and (ii) subscriptions by related parties of the Company (consisting of directors of the Company and companies controlled by directors of the Company) for 2,100,000 Shares and 400,000 CDIs, such subscriptions being subject to approval by the Company’s shareholders pursuant to Listing Rule 10.11.1. Shares issued pursuant to the Tranche 2 Placement are subject to a four-month statutory hold period expiring on December 26, 2020.

Aggregate gross proceeds under the Offering were approximately C$4.04 million (A$4.27 million). Net proceeds of the Offering will be used by the Company to further progress its Chvaletice Manganese Project in the Czech Republic (the “Project”) and for other general corporate purposes. Canaccord Genuity (Australia) Limited ("Canaccord") acted as Lead Manager and Bookrunner to the Offering, with Bacchus Capital Advisers Limited ("BCAL") acting as financial adviser to the Company. Fees payable in cash by the Company in connection with the Offering consisted of payments of C$142,160 to Canaccord and C$74,174 to BCAL.

The Shares and CDIs issued under the Offering have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to U.S. Persons absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration. This press release is not an offer or a solicitation of an offer of securities for sale in the United States, nor will there be any sale of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

Closing of the Debt Settlement

The Debt Settlement consisted of the issuance of 3,071,551 Shares and 150,157 CDIs at a deemed price of C$0.08 per Share or CDI to extinguish C$257,737 of indebtedness with certain creditors of the Company. All 150,157 CDIs and 1,150,967 of the Shares issued to related parties of the Company were subject to approval by the Company’s shareholders as required by Listing Rule 10.11.1 of the ASX. The issuance of 1,920,584 Shares to arm’s length suppliers exceeded the Company's Placement Capacity and accordingly, also required the approval by the Company’s shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1. The Shares issued in connection the Debt Settlement are subject to a statutory four-month statutory hold period expiring on December 26, 2020.

The issuance of Shares and CDIs to insiders of the Company pursuant to the Tranche 2 Placement and the Debt Settlement are considered to be related party transactions under Canada’s Multilateral Instrument 61-101 (“MI 61-101”). The Company is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements provided under sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 on the basis that participation in the Tranche 2 Placement and the Debt Settlement by insiders does not exceed 25% of the fair market value of the Company’s market capitalization.
