#BRES Blencowe Resources PLC – Stage 7 Drilling Program Update
Blencowe Resources Plc (LSE: BRES) is pleased to report that all three deep holes drilled at the Beehive deposit within its Orom-Cross Graphite Project have intersected significant continuous mineralisation to depths below 100 metres, more than three times deeper than the original 30-metre production horizon.
Importantly, all three holes ended within mineralisation, confirming the orebody remains open at depth and reinforcing the Project’s long-term scale and value potential.
The holes, each angled to a vertical depth of 100 metres (120 metres total length), form part of the Stage 7 resource definition programme designed to materially enhance both the upcoming JORC Resource upgrade and the ongoing Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS). Notably, the Beehive deposit – which sits outside the current 24.5Mt JORC Resource – is demonstrating significant depth and grade potential. These results are expected to underpin a material uplift in resource tonnage and overall project valuation.
This deep drilling builds on an extensive drill programme comprising 221 resource holes, 8 geotechnical holes, and 6 deep holes, collectively forming the foundation for a robust and substantial JORC Resource update.
A substantial number of assays are now pending. Consistent positive results from these will support an expanded Resource base, longer mine life, and ultimately a materially higher Net Present Value (NPV) for Orom-Cross. This will also ensure a steady stream of newsflow into both the JORC upgrade and ongoing strategic engagement – reinforcing investor visibility and confidence as Blencowe advances toward development.
Highlights:
· All three deep holes at Beehive delivered wide graphite intercepts from 30 metres to end-of-hole at 100m.
· All three deep holes ended in mineralisation, confirming the orebody remains open at depth.
· Two rigs are now drilling three further deep holes at the Northern Syncline deposit, 3km to the north of Beehive.
· Over 230 holes drilled to date as part of the wider DFS programme, with assay results expected to provide steady newsflow.
· Infill drilling campaign completed, which unlocks the next US$0.75M DFC tranche of grant funding.
· Assays pending from substantial number of holes; results to feed into upgraded JORC, DFS, and funding strategy
· Results will feed into the upgraded JORC Resource, DFS, and strategic engagement underway.
Ongoing Programme and Forward Workstreams
Two rigs are now drilling three additional deeper holes at the Northern Syncline deposit, targeting similar vertical ~100 metre extensions as observed at Beehive.
Final core logging and sample preparation from Beehive is nearing completion, with assays to be submitted shortly. The volume of assays pending from over 230 holes is expected to provide a steady stream of results and project de-risking milestones through the remainder of 2025.
Following successful completion of the recent infill drilling campaign (as referenced in the Company’s prior update), Blencowe expects to receive the next US$0.75 million tranche of the US International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) grant funding shortly. This payment reflects continued strong support for Orom-Cross from the US Government and underscores the importance of delivering a comprehensive, high quality DFS.
Work across all DFS streams continues to advance in parallel, including geology, engineering, infrastructure, and ESG. The DFS is expected to play a pivotal role in unlocking value through strategic offtake partnerships and securing project-level funding – such as with DFC – and other parties already engaged in early-stage discussions that could see full-scale development financing aligned to the Definitive Feasibility Study’s completion.
Executive Chairman Cameron Pearce commented:
“We are delighted with the new deep drilling results from Beehive which confirm wide graphite zones extending well below the previous 30 metres horizon and it is significant that we are still finishing in mineralisation below 100 metres on all holes. This speaks to the scale and depth potential of the Orom-Cross deposit. Importantly, we still do not know how deep this orebody goes and that is an exciting position to be in. Independent geologists Minrom have previously suggested Orom-Cross could host over two billion tonnes of graphite and success within both the recent step out drilling at Beehive and these deep holes go a long way to validating that view.”
“We are now drilling the Northern Syncline deposit where three more deep holes are underway, and if we can replicate these Beehive results across such a broad footprint Orom-Cross will continue to establish itself as one of the largest and most robust graphite projects globally. These results, alongside the JORC upgrade, ongoing offtake agreements, DFS progress, and advancing funding strategy, set the stage for a news-rich period ahead that can deliver substantial value accretion for shareholders.”
Importantly, the confirmation of deeper mineralisation has the potential for a material positive increase on the overall NPV of Orom-Cross as we factor these extensions into mine life and Project scale.”

#FCM First Class Metals PLC – Repayment of Loan and Share Placing
First Class Metals PLC (“First Class Metals” “FCM” or the “Company”) is a UK metals exploration company focused on the discovery of economic metal deposits across its extensive Canadian – northern Ontario land holding, is pleased to announce that it has completed the repayment of the shares loaned to the Company by James Knowles, a director of FCM.
Mr Knowles previously loaned the Company two tranches of shares totalling 5,912,059 ordinary shares of £0.001 par value (“Shares”), as announced on 17 July 2024, and consequently 5,912,059 new Shares (“Loan Shares”) have been issued to him today to settle this outstanding position.
Admission and Total Voting Rights
Applications will be made to the FCA and the LSE for admission (“Admission”) of the 5,912,059 Loan Shares, which is expected to be on or around 7 August 2024. These shares rank pari passu with the existing ordinary shares of the Company.
Following Admission, the Company has 97,653,420 Shares in issue, each with one vote per share (and none of which are held in treasury). The total number of voting rights in the Company is therefore 97,653,420. This figure of 97,653,420 may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for calculations to determine if they have a notifiable interest in the share capital of the Company under the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules, or if such interest has changed.
Share Placing
The Company is also pleased to announce that it has completed a private placing of 9,500,000 Shares at a price of 2.7 pence per Share (the “Placing Price”), raising gross proceeds of £256,500 (the “Placing”). Axis Capital Markets, acted as the Company’s sole placing agent in respect of the Placing. The company are pleased to appoint Axis Capital Markets as its new broker following the completion of the fundraising.
The Placing Price represents a 16% discount to the mid-market closing price of the Company’s shares on 1 August 2024, the last trading date prior to the completion of the placing.
The proceeds from the Placing, are intended to be used to continue the Company’s activities across the portfolio aimed at enhancing value, including:
– Expansion and development of the company’s exploration activities on the Dead Otter Trend North, Hemlo.
– Work will include the expansion and potential addition of further stripping and channel sampling sites accelerating exploration further across the 3.7km long Dead Otter Trend.
– Exploration activities on FCM’s other core projects in Northern Ontario.
– For general working capital purposes.
James Knowles, Executive Chairman, Commented:
“In light of the recent announcements regarding the high priority status of the Dead Otter Trend, it was considered wise to take advantage of the crews and equipment already mobilised at the site to increase both the number and scope of stripping sites.
We believe that the Dead Otter project holds transformative potential for FCM’s future, and completing this capital raise promptly will allow significant additional work this summer, thus enhancing our understanding of the geology and the target’s true potential.
Marc Sale, our CEO, is currently onsite overseeing operations and will collaborate closely with the Emerald Geological Team to formulate an expanded operational plan.
I am also pleased to announce the appointment of Axis Capital Markets to be the Company’s new broker”
Director’s-Stock Lending Agreement(s)
The Company does not presently have sufficient headroom to enable the Shares subject to the Placing to be admitted to trading without the publication of an FCA approved prospectus. The Company is therefore proposing that following Admission, James Knowles, a director of the Company, loans 9,500,000 Shares to the Company by means of a share loan agreement (the “Share Lending Agreement”), to facilitate the Placing by the Company. This loan involves no consideration being paid or security granted to James Knowles or a chargeable fee.
The Placing is expected to be completed on or around 21 August 2024.
The Share Lending Agreements provide for the allotment of an aggregate of 9,500,000 new Shares in the Company to James Knowles by 30 December 2024 to replace the Shares loaned in terms of the Share Lending Agreement.
James Knowles has elected not to charge a fee for the loan of these shares.
Following the Share Lending Agreement, James Knowles will have a total of 9,500,000 Shares loaned to the Company.
Material Related Party Transaction
As James Knowles is a director of the Company, the Share Lending Agreement is a material related party transaction (“MRPT”) under the Disclosure Transparency & Guidance Rules.
Marc Sale, Marc Bamber and Andrew Williamson, being the independent directors for the purpose of this MRPT, have approved the MRPT as being fair and reasonable from the perspective of FCM and its shareholders.

#BRES Blencowe Resources PLC – Subscription & Conditional Subscription – Replace
New Investor
The Company is pleased to report it has raised US$500,000 (£392,350) at 5 pence per share with a specialist African-based investor (“African Investor”) through the issue of 7,847,000 new ordinary shares. The investor has undertaken extensive due diligence over the last four months and the current investment is viewed as an initial entry into the project ahead of anticipated further investment as required. The shares have been issued to the African Investor under the Company’s existing headroom.
Additional Investor and the Issue of a Prospectus
In addition, the Company has conditionally raised a further £2,500,000 at 5 pence resulting in the issue of 50,000,000 new ordinary shares to an additional strategic investor (“Strategic Investor”). The Company is required to publish a prospectus on the basis that it will be issuing more than 20% of its issued share capital in a 12-month period. The Company and its advisers are in advanced stages of finalising the prospectus. The Company anticipates publishing the prospectus this month and will update shareholders prior to its publication.
Conditional Subscription
The Strategic Investor has received investment committee approval and made a firm commitment to subscribe. The subscription by the Strategic Investor is subject to the Company issuing the prospectus, a general meeting by the Company to approve certain resolutions relating to the issue of new ordinary shares, settlement of the investment and the issue and allotment of the new ordinary shares.
For the avoidance of doubt, the subscription by the African Investor is firm and not contingent on any investment by the Strategic Investor. The subscription funds have been received from the African Investor and the Company shall apply for the new ordinary shares to commence trading.
Admission
An application has been made for 7,847,000 new ordinary shares to be admitted to trading on the official list and the London Stock Exchange from 8.00 a.m. on Monday 12 February 2024 (“Admission”).
In accordance with the FCA’s Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules, the Company confirms that following Admission, the Company’s enlarged issued ordinary share capital will comprise 217,226,950 Ordinary Shares. The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in Treasury. Therefore, following Admission, the above figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations to determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company, under the FCA’s Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
Mike Ralston, CEO of Blencowe Resources, commented:
‘I am pleased to provide this positive update with respect to our fundraising initiatives. As previously reported, we have already received US$2,000,000 in grant funding from the US International Development Finance Corporation (“DFC”) out of their approved US$5,000,000 grant. A further US$1,000,000 is expected from the DFC in the near term as the next milestones have been met.
We now welcome a new specialist African investor to the register following the fundraise of US$500,000 at 5 pence, which represents a healthy premium to the current market price and underlines their decision to invest for the long term after an extensive due diligence exercise. We reasonably believe that they will look to invest further as our relationship is built.
Moreover, we are now in the closing stages of a further subscription of £2.5m at 5 pence from another Strategic Investor and we are busily working with our advisers to finalise and issue the prospectus.
Both these investments at 5p underline the value proposition offered by Blencowe and will provide us with a good runway to complete the DFS this year. We are making rapid progress in de-risking the Orom-Cross project, especially following the recent letter of interest received from the DFC to provide a funding solution for the build and development of Orom-Cross. We will continue to work closely with the DFC as we complete the DFS to ensure construction can commence at Orom-Cross in a timely fashion.
I believe it is testament of the quality of the Orom-Cross project that we have been able secure funding partners like this at a time when the junior mining sector continues to face significant difficulties with respect to sourcing capital. We are hoping to deliver an NPV in the DFS significantly higher than the post-tax NPV of US$482M achieved in the Pre-Feasibility Study and will keep shareholders updated on our progress.’

Background
Orom-Cross Graphite Project
Orom-Cross is a potential world class graphite project both by size and end-product quality, with a high component of more valuable larger coarse flakes within the deposit.
A 21-year Mining Licence for the project was issued by the Ugandan Government in 2019 following extensive historical work on the deposit. Blencowe completed a successful Pre-Feasibility Study on the Project in July 2022 and is now within the Definitive Feasibility Study phase as it drives towards first production.
Orom-Cross presents as a large, shallow open-pitable deposit, with an initial JORC Indicated & Inferred Mineral Resource of 24.5Mt @ 6.0% TGC (Total Graphite Content). This Resource has been defined from only ~2% of the total tenement area which presents considerable upside potential ahead. Development of the resource is expected to benefit from a low strip ratio and free dig operations together with abundant inexpensive hydro-electric power off the national grid, thereby ensuring low operating costs. With all major infrastructure available at or near to site the capital costs will also be relatively low in comparison to most graphite peers.
