BKM Project Power Study Completes Technical Inputs for

Optimised Feasibility Study - Publication Imminent

 

 

Asiamet Resources Limited (AIM: ARS) is pleased to advise shareholders that the supplementary power supply study for BKM Stage 1, the initial development phase of the Company's flagship BKM Copper Project ("BKM" or the "Project"), located in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia, has now been completed. This represents the last major technical input required for the Optimised Feasibility Study ("OFS"), which is now undergoing internal review ahead of publication.

 

Competitive proposals were received from multiple power plant equipment suppliers, providing robust operating cost assumptions tailored to the size and scale of BKM Stage 1. Various configurations were considered, providing flexibility and confidence in the selection of the preferred approach.

 

BKM Stage 1 has been designed as a lower-capex project focused on near-surface, higher soluble copper material. The Project targets annual copper cathode production of circa 10,000 tonnes, with substantial upside potential from the broader KSK Contract of Work as part of Asiamet's staged development strategy.

 

Key Highlights:

 

· Power Study Completed: Comprehensive evaluation of power supply solutions finalised. All Opex inputs for the financial model complete.

· Project Fully Defined: All engineering, cost, and technical studies now complete, presenting a de-risked and execution-ready copper project aligned with lender criteria.

· Financing Readiness Enhanced: Completion of the supplementary study marks the final technical input for the OFS and enables formal financing preparations to commence.

· Strong Lender Engagement: Active engagement continues with multiple prospective financing partners, throughout the final stages of study compilation and reporting.

· Imminent OFS Completion: Finalisation of the power study enables the Company to move swiftly towards OFS publication and progression to the financing phase.

With the final input received, the Company will now proceed with final internal reviews of the OFS documentation and expects to announce a release date for the full OFS in the near term.

 

Darryn McClelland, Chief Executive Officer of Asiamet, commented:

 

"Completion of the power study represents the final technical building block for BKM Stage 1. Importantly, it reflects the benefit of early lender engagement ensuring that our study aligns with the expectations of our financing partners and positioning us to move quickly into financing.

 

What we are delivering in BKM Stage 1 is a de-risked, construction-ready project targeting approximately 10ktpa of copper cathode - a strategically positioned, scalable supply source of copper into Asia's rapidly growing copper demand centres. Stage 1 unlocks a platform for broader development across the KSK licence area, where we see significant longer-term value potential.

 

With this major milestone complete, our immediate focus shifts to publication of the Optimised Feasibility Study and the transition to project financing. The Company also continues to receive inbound interest from groups looking to engage once the final OFS is published."

 

 

Investor Engagement:

Following the publication of the Optimised Feasibility Study, the Company will host an Investor Meet Company presentation to provide shareholders with further insights into the updated project economics and the next steps towards financing and development.
