also acting as Lead Manager to the Placement.
Metminco also advises that the 135,000,000 New Shares to be
issued pursuant to the Placement announced on the same date will
not be admitted to trading on AIM as the Company continues to be

its admission to AIM (to be effected 7:00am BST on 17 October 2018
- refer announcement dated 19 September 2018).
Sunshine Metals Ltd acquisition, Solomon Islands
Metminco has commenced due diligence on the acquisition of
Sunshine Metals Ltd which holds 80% of the Jejevo Nickel Project
('Jejevo') on Santa Isabel Island in the Solomon Islands, as well
as an 80% interest in an early stage bauxite prospect, the Tausere
Project, located on the southern coastline of Choiseul Island,
situated at the northwest extent of the Solomon Islands. The Jejevo
nickel laterite project has near-term development potential in
close proximity to numerous international markets. The due
diligence team has recently visited the Solomon Islands as part of
this process and will focus on the technical data, Prospecting
Licences and social licence.
Metminco notes that the Minerals Board of the Solomon Islands
Government's Ministry for Mines has recently approved a Mining
Licence for a nickel laterite project also located on Santa Isabel
Island. This reinforces the Company's view that with an appropriate
resource, development plan and engagement with all stakeholders, a
development of Jejevo is achievable.
