MARKET ANNOUNCEMENT
The board of ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc ("ZCCM-IH" or the
Company") wishes to inform its shareholders and the public that it
has partnered with Kobold Metals and EMR Capital ("the partners")
on a Copper exploration project, Mingomba ("the project"), in
Chililabombwe District of the Copperbelt Province in Zambia.
The project is at the exploration stage with a view to attaining
mine development once the feasibility studies are completed. The
project is adjacent to the Kamoa-Kakula mine in the Democratic
Republic of Congo.
The investment is a ZMW 25,000 equity subscription into Mingomba
Mining Limited with ZCCM-IH assuming 20% of the equity in the new
company via a free carry mechanism with no capital contribution
over the initial exploration period. A free carry mechanism ensures
ZCCM-IH does not provide any financing in the initial exploration.
Kobold will be providing financing of approximately $35 million
during the initial three-year phase of exploration and it is only
after this initial $35 million is exhausted, that ZCCM-IH and EMR
would be expected to provide financing into the project.
Thereafter, depending on the results of the initial exploration
program, an additional $30million is expected to be spent to
complete the exploration program over the next 3 years, should the
exploration results be positive. All parties will then be expected
to contribute to the cost of exploration commensurate to their
respective shareholding.
