PROSPECTING RIGHT LODGED IN TERMS OF SECTION 24 OF NATIONAL ENVIRONMETNAL MANAGEMENT ACT, 1998 (ACT 107 OF 1998) READ WITH REGULATION 19 OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT (EIA) REGULATIONS, 2014 AS AMENDED FOR PROSPECTING RIGHT FOR URANIUM (THORIUM) AND RARE EARTHS ON REMAINING EXTENT OF PORTION 1 (DRAGOENDER PUT); PORTION 6 (A PORTION OF PORTION 1) ; PORTION 10 (A PORTION OF PORTION 7 - ZOUTPUTS); REMAINING EXTENT OF PORTION 14 (A PORTION OF PORTION 8); PORTION 17 (A PORTION OF PORTION 1) ; PORTION 18 ( A PORTION OF PORTION 1) ; PORTION 19 (A PORTION OF PORTION 1); PORTION 23 (A PORTION OF PORTION 1) ; PORTION 24 (A PORTION OF PORTION 1) ; AND PORTION 25 ( A PORTION OF PORTION 14) OF THE FARM RIETFONTEIN 11 AND FARM 20 IN EXTENT: 4737.5007 HA IN EXTENT LOCATED IN THE PRIESKA DISTRICT, NORTHERN CAPE PROVINCE FOR SIX DRILL HOLES

Expanded_Motivation: 

PROSPECTING RIGHT APPLICATION BY CAMEL THORN GROUP ON PORTIONS OF FARM RIETFONTEIN 11 AND FARM 20, PRIESKA FOR SIX DRILL HOLES Prospecting work to be performed (i) Mapping A first phase of mapping is proposed to assist in the evaluation of the thorium, uranium and REE potential. This mapping is focused primarily on the assessment of geological maps, previous studies conducted in the area as well as land distribution patterns and surface infrastructure. (ii) Geochemical surveys The use of geochemical surveys is not relevant for the style of mineralization and thus none are planned. (iii) Geophysical surveys Ground magnetics and ground gravity on a pre-determined grid will be undertaken to determine the location of the thorium, uranium and REE potential formations. (iv) Invasive prospecting activities A programme of six (6) surface diamond drill holes are planned, comprising TNW, TBW and BQ size core and depths ranging from 20m to 50m, thus producing an estimated 300m drilled core. The drilling will be laid out on a random grid, which will allow for the determining of a Samrec category of mineral resource classification. (v) Road construction and drill pads This phase entails the grading of 5 kilometre of new road, the construction of 5 kilometre of new road, and the construction of the six (6) drill-pads.
