ABSTRACT:Canyon Resources Limited (Canyon or the Company) is pleased to report the outcomes of the Scoping Study (the Study) for Stage-1 of the Minim Martap Bauxite Project (the Project) located in Cameroon, West Africa. The Project is 100% owned by Canyon. The Study represents an interim milestone in the Minim Martap Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) which was initiated in 2019 and is anticipated to be presented as a 2-Stage, 2-Port development opportunity in the first half of 2020. The Study was supported by a variety of leading consultants including Ausenco, Mining Plus and Wood Mackenzie and draws on a wealth of industry knowledge in rail and port operations, bauxite mining and bulk commodities. The Study demonstrates Stage-1 of the Minim Martap Project as a robust, stand-alone, project with significant upside potential via a longer mine life underpinned by a high grade, large volume resource thought to be the only Guineastyle bauxite deposit outside of Guinea The current resource still only represents approximately 50% of the available target bauxite plateaux on the Project area. Canyon is planning the development of the Project in a 2-Stage, 2-Port execution programme with initial production exported though the port of Douala utilising the existing rail and port infrastructure. As the Study demonstrates, Stage1 is expected to be a self-supporting bauxite project with a simple, low cost and fast track path to operations. Stage-2 is anticipated to unlock higher export volumes and lower operating cost. Stage-2, which is being investigated as part of the PFS currently underway, will focus on the improvement of Stage-1, and the transition from Stage-1 to Stage-2, via the installation of the Kribi rail extension allowing for higher production rates through the existing deep-water port of Kribi.
