Guy Miller, Executive Director commented, "Having corner-stoned the recapitalisation and restructure of Evrima plc in July 2020, Gledhow is encouraged by the strong financing Evrima plc has completed at the beginning of September, with the financing being conducted at a premium to the Company's participation in July 2020.

Over the past 12-months, Evrima has been developing a disciplined and well-structured investment strategy in nickel-copper-cobalt-uranium resources projects, honed-in on southern Africa, with acquisitions of interests in projects in Botswana, detailed below.

What will be of significance moving forward is for Evrima to broaden its market audience and to present the company as a compelling alternative to direct asset exposure, and presenting a public market conduit to active exploration and development companies that are yet to list or are in the process of significant material events.

Evrima has an active period planned to the year end with a number of its investee's active in developing their assets through drill campaigns and corporate activity for which Gledhow looks forward to providing further updates."

Evrima: Current Investment Portfolio 1. Premium Nickel Resources Corporation ("PNR")

No. of Shares Evrima Holds: 1,000,000

% of Share capital: 1.37%

Last News Release on PNR can be found here

PNR is a private Canadian company that provides direct exposure to nickel-copper-cobalt ("Ni-Cu-Co") opportunities in the southern African region (principally, Botswana). PNR submitted an Indicative Offer ("IO") to the BCL Liquidator in June 2020 to acquire the former producing BCL Selebi-Phikwe Mining Complex and the Tati Nickel Mining Corporation ("TNMC") Operations as well as regional exploration joint ventures on highly prospective Ni-Cu-Co projects located in north-eastern Botswana.

PNR was selected as the preferred bidder to acquire the assets formerly owned by BCL Limited and TNMC on February 10, 2021. On March 24, 2021, PNR completed the Exclusivity Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") with the Liquidator for the ongoing six-month exclusivity period to complete additional work and related Asset Purchase Agreements (See Evrima plc News Release dated March 24, 2021). Negotiations are ongoing to finalise terms on the prioritised assets that will be included in the Asset Purchase Agreement.

The BCL operations at Selebi-Phikwe are comprised of a mining complex, a concentrator and a processing facility, as well as other supplementary assets and infrastructure such as rail line, tailings facilities, and employee housing. Shaft sinking and plant construction started in 1970 and open pit mining commenced at Phikwe in 1972. Throughout the mine's life the various deposits, over a 14 km strike length, have been mined by open pit and various underground mining methods. Mining concluded in October 2016 when the operations were placed on care and maintenance due to a failure in the smelter. PNR's redevelopment plan is based on a re-characterisation of the remaining resources and the ability to produce two separate commercial concentrates (a Cu concentrate and a separate Ni-Co concentrate).

Underground Selebi-Phikwe Remaining reserves and resources at 31 December, 2016:

Proven & Probable Mineral Reserves 49 Mt @ 0.61% Ni, 0.68% Cu Indicated & Inferred Mineral Resources 35 Mt @ 0.82% Ni, 0.92% Cu

The TNMC Operations are comprised of two mines and a processing plant situated 65 km south-east of town of Francistown, and 75 km north of the BCL Operations at Selebi-Phikwe. Underground production at Selkirk of high-grade massive sulphides between 1989 to 2002 produced 1 million tonnes @ 2.6% Ni and 1.5% Cu that was directly shipped to the BCL Smelter. A large volume of disseminated Ni-Cu mineralisation surrounds the higher-grade Selkirk mineralisation is being evaluated as a potential open pit development. The Phoenix open pit mine and processing plant began operations in 1995. The operations were put on care and maintenance in early 2016.

Open Pit TNMC remaining reserves and resources at 31 December, 2016:

Proven & Probable Mineral Reserves 17.8 Mt @ 0.19% Ni, 0.13% Cu; Indicated & Inferred Mineral Resources 234 Mt @ 0.22% Ni, 0.23% Cu
