HIGHLIGHTS

Quinchia Gold Portfolio

-- Metminco Limited (Metminco or the Company) acquired Miraflores Compania Minera SAS (Miraflores Compania), formerly Minera Seafield SAS from RMB Australia Holdings Limited (RMB) on 20 June 2016.

   --       Miraflores Compania owns 100% of the Quinchia Gold Portfolio which; 
   -- has a NI 43-101 Mineral Resource of 2.8 million ounces of gold, 
 
   -- has a JORC 2012 Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource of 832,000 ozs Au and 817,000 ozs Ag at a 1.2g/t Au 
      cut-off. 
 
   -- covers 6,043Ha of granted concessions and an additional 3,792Ha of pending applications, 
 
   -- hosts a number of deposits and significant exploration targets including Miraflores, Dosquebradas, Tesorito and 
      Chuscal, and 
 
   -- is located in Colombia's Middle Cauca Belt, which hosts several multimillion ounce gold discoveries. 

-- The Quinchia Gold Portfolio provides the Company with a near term cash flow opportunity via the Miraflores Project where a mineable quantity of 4.03 million tonnes at 3.51g/t Au and 2.84g/t Ag has been scheduled containing 455,000 ozs Au and 368,000 ozs Ag.

-- Updated Miraflores Project mining study confirms an underground mining only operation to be technically and financially more robust than previous studies and will now be the focus of the planned Feasibility Study.

-- The Company will seek funding for the completion of a Feasibility Study and Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) at the Miraflores Project with a view to having the project permitted and the development funded by the end of the 2017 calendar year.

Los Calatos Copper-Molybdenum Project

-- Agreement with CD Capital Natural Resources Fund III LP (CD Capital) to fund the completion of Pre-feasibility and Feasibility Studies. CD Capital to subscribe for new shares of up to US$45 million to acquire up to 70% of Los Calatos Holding Ltd (CD Capital Transaction).

-- Initial investment of US$16 million to fund an infill drilling program to upgrade Inferred Mineral Resources to Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource categories, metallurgical testwork and permitting to meet with the requirements of a Pre-feasibility Study.

Mollacas

-- The Company and the landowner at the Mollacas Project settled and terminated all outstanding claims in relation to the access dispute.

-- The Company is assessing options available to it in relation to this project including seeking to secure land access for mining purposes.

Corporate

-- The CD Capital Transaction is anticipated to be completed by mid-October 2016. An interim funding arrangement with CD Capital to fund the Los Calatos Project until completion takes place, reducing the Company's monthly cash burn by approximately A$100,000 from September 2016.

-- The Company's cash position as at 30 June 2016 was approximately A$0.6 million. Evaluation of funding alternatives to progress the Miraflores Project through to completion of a Bankable Feasibility Study and decision to mine is underway.

Managing Director, William Howe said, "The period has seen the completion of two very significant events for the Company, the first of which resulted in Los Calatos becoming a genuine development option through securing a financial partner and, secondly, our entrance into the gold sector with the acquisition of Miraflores Compania. The focus is now firmly on advancing our near term and robust Miraflores Project in Colombia through to Feasibility and construction finance.

I am pleased we have exited a period of significant headwinds for the sector with two highly promising projects, and we look forward to updating our shareholders as we progress both projects towards development."
