The Board of Sky Metals Limited (‘SKY’ or ‘The Company’) is pleased to advise that SKY has exercised the option
to acquire the Iron Duke Project, EL6064, with the issuing of 6,841,294 shares and 781,862 options in SKY
(exercisable at $0.064 within two years of the date of issue) to acquire 100% of the issued capital in Balmain
Minerals Pty Limited which holds the Iron Duke Project EL6064.
SKY CEO Oliver Davies comments: “While SKY remains focussed on exciting developments at the Tallebung Tin
Project and continues to work towards Mine Scoping Studies at Tallebung, the purchase of 100% of the Iron Duke
Project brings additional valuable exposure to Copper-Gold into SKY’s existing copper-gold portfolio. SKY plans to
build on the existing copper-gold resources and test the numerous undrilled copper-gold mine workings at the
Iron Duke Project in due course.”
This announcement has been approved for release by the Board of Directors.
