Cameron Parry CEO of Metal Tiger commented: "We are pleased to announce the commencement of Uranium focused activities. It is also pleasing to report the JV partners strategic decision to work together to consider the acquisition of additional Uranium interests broadening and deepening both companies Uranium sector exposure.

We believe that a diversified resource asset portfolio should include exposure to highly attractive Uranium interests in readiness for a recovery in the sector.

We will provide a further update to market in respect of the Uranium study update in due course, and we will further report to market in respect of any Uranium asset transactions and related matters as and when material events occur."

Tanzanian Uranium Project Study

In August 2009 a study and report covering Tanzanian uranium potential was prepared by Mzuri Resources to assist with the identification of attractive uranium prospective licences for acquisition and development in-country. This report provided coverage of the following elements:

- Mineralisation models for uranium deposits;

- Existing uranium focused operational activities in Tanzania;

- Assessment of regional uranium prospectivity concentrating on south-west and central uranium regions;

- Specific assessment of identified uranium targets.

The JV has decided to commence its work together by undertaking an update of the above study report and ensuring operational decision making with regard to the Pinewood project, and any potential new acquisitions, is undertaken with a full understanding of the current status of the Tanzanian Uranium environment.

The updated study report is expected to be completed and delivered during October 2015 and the results of this work will be announced to market as appropriate. In parallel with this work the JV continues to seek uranium acquisition opportunities within Tanzania and other jurisdictions.
