Tertiary Minerals #TYM – Notice of General Meeting – Wednesday 24 March 2021
Tertiary Minerals plc, the AIM traded company building a multi-commodity project portfolio announces that it is holding a General Meeting on Wednesday 24 March 2021. The business of the General Meeting will be to consider and, if thought fit, to pass a special resolution to empower the directors to disapply the pre-emption rights in respect of those shares that were authorised for issue by Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting of the Company held on 28 January 2021 (“the AGM”).
Having raised capital recently, as announced on 26 January 2021, the Company has no immediate plans to issue new securities.
However, a resolution to disapply pre-emptive rights has been approved at all previous Annual General Meetings but failed to pass at this year’s AGM. Given that only 4.25% of shares then in issue were voted at the AGM, the Directors are of the view that the wishes of the Shareholders as a whole may not have been properly represented and would like to give Shareholders a second opportunity to consider granting this authority.
The Board considers that this resolution is in the best interest of the Company’s shareholders and the Company as a whole. Accordingly, the Board unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of the New Resolution, as they intend to do so in respect of their own beneficial holdings of Ordinary Shares which amount, in aggregate, to 15,579,080 Ordinary Shares representing approximately 1.32 per cent. of the total issued share capital of the Company as at today’s date.
A circular and Notice of General Meeting has today been posted to shareholders.
General Meeting Arrangements
The General Meeting will be held at 11.00am on Wednesday 24 March 2021.
The Board continues to monitor the Government advice in relation to the COVID-19 situation and public gatherings. The Board believes that all shareholders will wish to comply with these guidelines and therefore physical attendance in person at the GM will not be permitted. The Company encourages shareholders to appoint the Chairman as their proxy with their voting instructions. Forms of Proxy must be received by no later than 48 hours before the commencement of the meeting and can be submitted electronically at www.signalshares.com.
The Company will continue to monitor the situation and if Government advice dictates that further changes to the arrangements for the General Meeting are necessary, details will be published on the website and via a Regulatory Information Service.

Tertiary Minerals #TYM – Lucky Copper Project Drilling
Tertiary Minerals plc is pleased to advise that drilling is scheduled to start today on the Company’s Lucky Copper Project in Nevada, USA.
The target is a disseminated sediment hosted, intrusion-related copper deposit and details of the project and the planned drill hole can be found in the Company’s announcements of 29 May 2020 and 11 January 2021.
Results of the drilling will be advised once analytical results become available.
Commenting today, Executive Chairman Patrick Cheetham said:
“We have decided to drill at an early stage on this project as historical exploration results present an immediate target with reported copper mineralisation that needs to be confirmed and put into a better geological context. We look forward to reporting results as they become available.”

Tertiary Minerals #TYM – Mt Tobin Project – Exploration Update
Further to its announcement of 11 January 2021, Tertiary Minerals plc is pleased to advise that it has now completed evaluation of its results from soil sampling and magnetic surveying at its Mt Tobin Silver Project in Nevada, USA.
Mt Tobin Silver Prospect
- Associated soil and magnetic anomalies defined over substantial strike length.
- Silver-in-soil anomalies defined over strike length of 1,200m and widths of 75-200m.
- Maximum value of 15.7ppm silver (0.46 ounces per ton) in soils against anomaly thresholds of 0.5 and 1ppm silver.
- Inversion modelling of magnetic data defines sub-horizontal pipe structure that closely follows the silver-in-soil anomaly along its full length.
- Anomalies are open along strike.
- Field mapping and evaluation of anomalies now planned for spring/summer this year.
Maps and images showing the location and distribution of the soil and magnetic anomalies will be available on the Company’s website at:
https://www.tertiaryminerals.com/mt-tobin-silver-gold-prospect-nevada-usa
Commenting today, Executive Chairman Patrick Cheetham said:
“It is pleasing to report positive results from our continuing exploration at Mt Tobin. The strong association of magnetic and silver-in-soil anomalies containing up to 15.7ppm silver makes for an exciting exploration target. Follow up field evaluation of these anomalies is now planned.”

Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) Disclosure
Certain information contained in this announcement would have been deemed inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 until the release of this announcement.
Detailed information
The Mt Tobin Project is located 73km south of Winnemucca in north central Nevada and was acquired to follow up historical reports of silver mineralisation in chert and silicified sediments.
In summer 2020, Tertiary carried out an initial reconnaissance prospecting visit that confirmed the earlier reports when rock samples taken from prospector hand-dug pits returned silver values up to 107 grammes/tonne (3.12 ounces/ton) with several other samples returning between 15 and 91g/t silver.
This was followed up in autumn 2020 with a UAV (drone) high resolution photogrammetric and magnetic surveys and a soil sampling programme.
The magnetic survey comprised 23.6-line km of flying on traverses 50m apart on a linear grid approximately 1,500m north-south and 750m in width. A total of 304 soil samples were collected on a 40m by 100m grid over the same area.
The soil analytical results have now been received and an initial interpretation of results has been carried out.
Soil samples were sieved and the minus 0.18mm fraction was submitted for geochemical analysis1. for silver, gold and various pathfinder elements. Samples were found to contain up to 15.7 parts per million (ppm) silver (0.46 ounces/ton) and anomaly thresholds were defined at 0.5ppm and 1ppm (being above the 80th and 90th percentile respectively).
At a 0.5ppm silver contour level the silver-in-soil anomaly extends over a strike length of 1,200m and contains areas over the 1ppm contour up to 500m in length and with widths between 40 and 150m. Gold values were anomalous up to 128 parts per billion (ppb), but silver shows a higher correlation with geochemical values of mercury, zinc, antimony and lead.
The magnetic data was processed by consulting geologist, Brian Williams, by inversion using Geosoft Magnetic Vector Inversion software to create a magnetic susceptibility model aligned with the size and orientation of magnetic bodies.
A low level but distinctive magnetic anomaly was defined with a sub-horizontal pipe shape extending north from a larger magnetic body at the south end of the survey grid. Mostly the magnetic anomaly does not outcrop but lies between 20m and 100m below surface. The magnetic anomaly shows a strong association parallel and immediately west of the silver-in-soil anomaly. In places it is coincident with a weathered diabase body at surface, but it is not dyke-like in form. The magnetic body may be caused by pyrrhotite associated with the silver mineralisation as the silver bearing rock samples referred to above were veined with stockworks of iron-oxides formed from oxidation of sulphide minerals.
The associated magnetic and silver-in-soil anomalies present attractive exploration targets and further work is now planned to include additional mapping and field evaluation of the anomalies.
This work will likely be carried out in late spring or summer this year due to the high elevation of the project area.
Notes:
- Samples were submitted to ALS (Reno, Nevada) and prepared using method code PREP-41 where soil was screened and the -180-micron fraction was reserved for analysis. Analysis was performed using method code AuME-TL43 – Trace detection limit method for Au plus multi-element package by aqua regia digestion and ICP-MS finish. ALS internal QAQC samples were inserted and returned satisfactory values.
