<>"CASCABEL:TIME FOR THE M & A SPOTLIGHT."- Research note by Paradigm Capital 11.9.18
www.solgold.com.au/investors-center/#pres

Quote:
"Highlights:There is little question that the Cascabel project is one of the most valuable copper/gold projects for the mining industry now that the Timok project in Serbia and Kamoa/Kakula project are solidly in the hands of the Chinese."

"Is it copper or gold:The industry trend is now towards j o i n t development of large multi-billion mining projects, and Cascabel is certainly large enough to accomodate this trend."

ALPALA and above that La ESCONDIDA 47.14Mt Cu

Pg 18: "USD $3 billion in Initial Capex."

Comment:
1)One will note that the Capex [Initial capital] has come down from JPM*s figure of US$3.5b to US$3b per Solgold*s Mar 2019 presentation.

2)Cobre Panama news: "First ore processed at Cobre Panama"- Mining Journal, 13.2.19
https://www.mining-journal.com/copper-news/1356439/first-ore-processed-at-cobre-panama
Quote: "Copper producer First Quantum has introduced first ore to the Cobre Panama plant, a major milestone in the delivery of the $6.3 billion project."

One will see that Cobre Panama in Panama cost $6.3 billion in capital costs vs $3b for Alpala, Cascabel. One will also notice the copper grade at Panama @0.35% cu. On one forum, there used to be discussions over grade but one can see that 0.35% cu has now transpired into a mine.

First Quantum is listed in Canada and has a share price of $14.04 with a mkt cap of C$9.68 billion.

3) From the Solgold Mar 2019 presentation, it sets out the TIMELINE which is useful.

4)Escondida & Escondida Norte
"Combined proven & probable: 2.018 Billion @1.24%cu copper,
1.701 Billion of low grade copper at 0.55%Cu total copper &
290Mt of copper oxide at 0.73% acid-soluable copper. As at mid-2004"

"Proven & Probable 3.9 Billion - last 34 years."
"Ownership: BHP 57.5%, Rio 30%, Jeco Corp 10% & International Finance Corp 2.5%."

<><>2Luke*s link to the AFR article mentioning Solgold and Rio. Tribeca was keen in the article that they wanted Rio to takeover Solgold at some $1.5 billion [In US$. £1=US$1.3].

The last M & A was US$1.4 billion from recall.

US$1.5 billion = £1.1 billion.

**On Fri, 8 Mar 2019, Solgold*s share price was 37.3 British pence with a market cap of £688.68m.
52 wk high 45.05p and low 20.4p.
BHP last bought shares in Solgold at 45p.
