Directorate Change and Joint Venture update

The Company also announces that with the achievement of this important transaction milestone moving StratMin into the gold industry, Shishir Poddar has resigned from the Board with immediate effect in order to focus his attention on developing the Vatomaina graphite project in Madagascar. This project is owned by Tirupati Resources Mauritius Pvt Ltd ("TRM") in joint venture with StratMin. TRM has successfully completed a pre-IPO fundraising into Tirupati Graphite plc. ("TGC"), a UK holding company incorporated for the group. TGC intends to undertake an IPO and to be admitted to trading on AIM in the second half of 2017. Mr Poddar will focus his time and effort on completing this IPO and development of the group's graphite interests.

As announced on 18 June 2015, StratMin entered into a joint venture agreement with Tirupati Carbons & Chemicals Group (P) Ltd. ("Tirupati"), a private Indian-based graphite mining and processing group, with operations in India and Madagascar, which Mr Poddar is a director of. As of the date of this announcement, StratMin owns 1.45 per cent. of TRM and the Company is in the process of transferring these shares into Tirupati Graphite plc.

Mr Poddar remains a significant shareholder with 6,284,387 ordinary shares in StratMin, representing 3.55 per cent. of the issued share capital. Mr Poddar holds no options in the Company.

Brett Boynton, CEO of StratMin, said,

"We are pleased to announce this transaction milestone and have the regulatory filings in Australia now underway. I look forward to progressing to shareholder approvals with both StratMin and Signature Gold as quickly as possible.

It remains for me to thank Shishir on behalf of the Board and Shareholders for his significant contribution to the Company, repositioning the Graphamda operations and enabling us to successfully exit that investment. We remain a small partner in the Madagascan graphite industry through our ongoing holding in the new group and wish Shishir and the Tirupati team all the very best for the successful IPO and commissioning of the Vatomaina operation."

The Company will make any further announcements in due course.
