Von Berkeley Energia Ltd.

Thumb Berkeley Energia: Quartalsbericht März 2017 Erschließung der Mine Salamanca kommt gut voran, starke Unterstützung aus der EU - Die Erschließung der Uranmine Salamanca kommt weiter gut voran: o Alle Infrastrukturarbeiten sollten wie geplant abgeschlossen werden können. o Der Erwerb der Grundstücke ist mit der Sicherung weiterer 100 Hektar in diesem Quartal nahezu abgeschlossen. o Die wichtigsten Anlageteile wurden bestellt und werden derzeit von den Industrieexperten Sandvik in Finnland und Vibramech in Südafrika hergestellt. o Das Unternehmen hat mit Asturiana de Zinc SAU, einem Glencore-Unternehmen, einen Vorvertrag über die Versorgung mit Reagenzmitteln aus lokaler Produktion von 2018 bis 2021 zu Anschaffungskosten, die deutlich unter den Schätzungen in der definitiven Machbarkeitsstudie (DFS) liegen, unterzeichnet. - Billigung des Projekts durch alle Interessensgruppen: o Die Versorgungsagentur EURATOM unterstützt das Projekt Salamanca, da es der Europäischen Gemeinschaft Versorgungssicherheit bietet. o Das Unternehmen kommt seinem Versprechen nach, lokale Beschäftigungsmöglichkeiten zu schaffen; es beschäftigt mittlerweile 50 Vollzeitmitarbeiter und sucht aktuell nach 25 weiteren Angestellten, die Ende des Monats anfangen sollen. o In diesem Quartal fanden weitere Ausbildungsprogramme statt. Das Unternehmen hat mittlerweile über 120 Anwohner für die 450 Arbeitsplätze, die durch das Projekt geschaffen werden, ausgebildet. o Das Wiederaufforstungsprogramm zum Pflanzen von 30.000 jungen Eichenbäumen wurde nach einer Einigung mit der Ayuntamiento of Vitigudino aufgenommen; diese sieht vor, dass 20.000 Bäume in diesem Gemeindebezirk gepflanzt werden. Weitere 10.000 Bäume sollen während der Lebensdauer der Mine gepflanzt werden. - Finanzangelegenheiten verlaufen nach Plan: o Die Kapital- und Betriebskosten liegen auf dem DFS-Niveau oder darunter und sind im Zuge des FEED-Programms (Front End Engineering Design) nun nahezu vollständig ausgearbeitet. o Starkes anhaltendes Interesse seitens strategischer Investoren und Geldgeber o Robuste Bilanz mit 29,2 Mio. USD an Barmitteln und keine Schulden - Potenzial zur Steigerung der Reserven/Ressourcen und der Verlängerung der Lebensdauer der Mine: o Unterhalb der bestehenden Ressource bei Zona 7 wurden hochgradige Abschnitte entdeckt. o Die Gespräche mit einem strategischen Partner für ein auf die Exploration ausgerichtetes Joint Venture, dessen Zweck die Abgrenzung zusätzlicher Ressourcen zur Verlängerung der Lebenszeit der Mine oder der Steigerung der Produktionskapazitäten wäre, halten an. - Die Stimmung im Uranmarkt schlägt langsam um: o Der Spotpreis hält sich seit seiner Rally im Dezember 2016. o US-Versorgungsunternehmen starten nun neue Uranversorgungsverträge abzuschließen. o In Japen werden 25 Anträge auf Neustart von Reaktoren bearbeitet, von denen fünf mittlerweile bewilligt wurden. Managing Director Paul Atherley äußerte sich dazu wie folgt: Die Mine Salamanca wird nach den höchsten internationalen Richtlinien erschlossen und wir sind sehr stolz auf diese Investition, die in dieser Region, die so schlimm unter Langzeitarbeitslosigkeit - insbesondere unter den Jugendlichen leidet -, 450 direkte und weitere 2.000 indirekte Arbeitsplätze schaffen wird. Wir sehen uns ermutigt durch die breite und wachsende Unterstützung seitens der Interessensgruppen, von der EU bis hin zur lokalen Gemeinsschaft, wie u.a. an der steigenden Anzahl der Bewerbungen und den überbuchten Ausbildungskursen deutlich wird. Das Unternehmen hat bis dato mehr als 120 Anwohner ausgebildet und Bewerbungen von mehr als 25 Prozent der Bewohner der umliegenden Dörfer erhalten. Auch die EURATOM begrüßt die Mine Salamanca, da sie einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Sicherheit der kostengünstigen und sauberen Energieversorgung in der Europäischen Union beitragen wird. Wir erhalten immer mehr Anfragen von amerikanischen, asiatischen, europäischen und afrikanischen Versorungsskonzernen, die ihre Abnahmemengen mit der Versorgung durch einen kostengünstigen Lieferanten in einem OECD-Land diversifizieren möchten.

The road deviation programme is well advanced and land is now being cleared to prepare for installation of the crushing circuit and construction of the processing plant later this year. The land acquisition programme has progressed successfully with over 600 hectares acquired or leased to date, with only a few hectares remaining to be acquired. The crushing circuit, screens and ancillary equipment have been ordered and are currently being fabricated by Sandvik in Finland and Vibramech in South Africa. Equipment procurement for the electrical power line has been completed and the line deviation will commence once the road construction is complete. The Company has entered into a preliminary agreement with Asturiana de Zinc SAU, a Glencore company, to supply locally sourced reagent from 2018 to 2021 at a cost substantially below the one estimated in the Definitive Feasibility Study. These reagent costs represent approximately 30% of the overall process operating costs. Employment levels are increasing with over fifty employees now on site and this will rise to over 150 people by mid-year. The Company has started the process to hire an additional 25 local residents starting this month. Over 120 locals have now completed the companys skills training programmes enabling them for positons with the Company. These rising levels of employment are already beginning to have a positive effect on a local community badly affected by long term unemployment, especially amongst its youth. The Company remains committed to environmental excellence and as part of the Environmental License and the Environmental Measures Plan it will plant 30,000 young oak trees, a six fold increase on the number of older trees being cleared, greatly improving the ecological and agricultural value of the area. The agreement will come into force once the favourable report issued by the Environmental Territorial Service of Salamanca has been approved by the General Directorate of Natural Environment of the Castilla y León Regional Government. This reforestation programme has commenced with an agreement with the highly supportive local municipality of Vitigudino which details the arrangements for planting 20,000 young oak trees over a 50 hectare plot. The Company is currently evaluating quotes from a number of experienced mining contractors and is encouraged by the competitive bids received. A key focus is the management of cost escalation over the term of these and all major contracts and suppliers to the Company. Capital and the main contractual operating costs will be finalised in May 2017 following the completion of the Front End Engineering Design being undertaken by AMEC Foster Wheeler and are expected to come in at, or close to, the Definitive Feasibility Study estimates, reinforcing the Salamanca mines position at the bottom of the cost curve. A number of analysts have noted that due to low uranium prices Salamanca is the only major uranium mine under construction in the world today and will come on stream into what has been forecast as one of the largest supply-demand deficits ever seen in the uranium market. Sentiment towards the uranium market began to turn towards the end of 2016 and has remained positive in the first quarter of 2017. This positive sentiment is expected to continue over the next four years as the uranium supply coverage of the ~350 U.S. and European nuclear utilities is forecast to fall to between 20%-30% of annual requirements. These utilities have been largely absent from the market over the past five years and as they re-enter the market to begin re-contracting they will be competing with China for uranium supply which is predicted to spend US$570 billion building 65 new reactors. In addition and further reinforcing this positive sentiment Japan has recently announced applications to bring 26 of its 57 reactors back online. Five are already approved with up to five reactors expected to be commissioned each year from now until 2022. The Company is in a strong financial position with US$29.2 million in cash and no debt and is advancing its discussions with strategic partners and potential financiers. Further contracts for sale will be entered into as the market continues to improve, with the Company progressively building its sales book with high quality off-takers. As previously advised, the Company is not considering project finance nor will its finance be conditional on future off-take contracts. . EU welcomes the development of the Salamanca mine The European Union (EU) has welcomed the development of the Salamanca mine by approving the Companys offtake agreement for the sale of the first production. The EURATOM Supply Agency, the governing body for all nuclear fuel transactions within the EU, has concluded that the agreement is in accordance with Article 52 of the EURATOM Treaty and has countersigned the agreement. EURATOM announced the following during the quarter: We particularly welcome the emergence and development of a new EU based uranium mining project and believe that it will contribute to the security of supply of natural uranium for the Community users. The World Nuclear Association reports that the EUs 128 nuclear power reactors generate over one-quarter of the electricity for the whole of the EU. Following the recent closure of the small Rozna mine in the Czech Republic the EU no longer has any domestic uranium supply and over 60% of supply is now imported from Russia, Kazakhstan and Niger. Endesa, the Spanish electrical authority, has recently highlighted Spains dependence on nuclear power generated electricity. Spain has seven reactors supplying over 20% of the countrys zero carbon electricity. Endesa has advised that without nuclear generated power electricity costs would rise by 26%. Spain experienced a surge in electricity prices in January when the temporary closure of several nuclear power plants in France contributed to a trigger in electricity prices throughout Europe. In addition they report that there would be up to a 50% increase in CO2 emissions, to more than 28 million tonnes per year. Endesa noted "this effect is already being observed in Germany", with the gradual closure of its nuclear plants ordered after the Fukushima event. In November 2016, the Company entered into a sales agreement with Curzon Resources Limited, formerly known as Interalloys Trading Limited, for a total of two million pounds of uranium over a five-year period, with scope to increase to a total of three million pounds. The agreement is for an average fixed price of US$43.78 per pound of contracted and optional volumes, which compares favourably to the current spot price of US$23.50 per pound and establishes a strong cash margin above the steady state production costs of around US$15 per pound. The Company is building its offtake book as construction progresses and is currently bidding for, and in negotiations with, offtake contracts with major global utilities who, in recent months, have issued tenders for long term off-take contracts for medium to long term supply. It is clear from these negotiations that the Salamanca mines low operating cost profile and its location in the EU gives it a competitive advantage with those utilities looking to diversify supply away from non-OECD countries. Infrastructure development continues and major contracts being evaluated Initial infrastructure development commenced in August 2016 with the re-routing of the existing electrical power line to service the mine and a five kilometre realignment of an existing road. The road deviation continues to proceed as planned and will be completed in the European summer. The upgrade to the existing electrical power line will commence this August and will be completed by the end of the year. The deviation programme has been designed to create pedestrian footpaths and secure cattle paths in order to maximize the benefit to the local community. Clearing has commenced on land owned by the Company and where the processing plant, medium voltage substation, reagent storage facilities and buildings will be built. Approximately half of this land has now been prepared. Many of the trees being cleared are suffering from a fungal pest that prevents them from growing and are being replaced with young, healthy oak trees that will improve the ecological value of the area. The Company has entered into a preliminary agreement with Asturiana de Zinc SAU, a Glencore company, to supply locally sourced reagent from 2018 to 2021 at a cost substantially below the one estimated in the Definitive Feasibility Study. These reagent costs represent approximately 30% of the overall process operating costs. The Company will continue to pursue cost optimisation opportunities as it proceeds towards production to ensure that the Salamanca mine establishes itself at the bottom of the cost curve in terms of capital and operating costs once in production. Quotes from a number of experienced mining contractors are currently being evaluated and the Company is encouraged by the competitiveness of the bids received. A key focus is the management of cost escalation over the term of these and all the major contracts with and suppliers to the Company. Committed to the highest environmental standards The Salamanca mine is being developed to the highest international standards and as such, the Companys commitment to the environment remains a priority. The mine has been designed according to the very latest thinking on sustainable mining. The extraction and treatment areas will be continuously rehabilitated as operations progress and with minimum disturbance during operations. Once operations are complete, all areas utilised by the Company will be fully restored to an increased agricultural value. As part of the Environmental Licence and the Environmental Measures Plan over 30,000 young oak trees will be planted over an area of 75 to 100 hectares. This is a six-fold increase in the number of trees currently being cleared and will greatly improve the ecological value of the area. The reforestation programme began earlier this month following an agreement with the highly supportive municipality of Vitigudino, as part of the Companys commitment to environmental excellence. This agreement details the arrangements for planting of 20,000 trees over a 50 hectare plot in the municipality of Vitigudino. This plot forms part of an area of more than 500 hectares owned by the municipality that is used by cattle farmers, despite its deteriorating ecological value. The Company will make payments to the municipality of Vitigudino for the next three years to cover the costs of planting and maintaining the young trees and looks forward to entering into similar agreements with the municipalities of Retortillo, Villavieja and Villares de Yeltes. Land acquisition programme The land acquisition programme continues to progress well. This quarter the Company acquired more than 100 hectares, in addition to the 500 hectares it acquired and/or leased in 2016. The successful acquisition of this land will allow for the completion of the initial infrastructure currently underway and the commencement of construction of the processing plant later this year, together with construction of a medium voltage substation, reagent storage facilities and buildings. Further high grade intercepts below Zona 7 A major exploration programme targeting further Zona 7 style deposits across numerous key targets continued during the quarter. The programme is aimed at making new discoveries and converting some of the 29.6 million pounds of Inferred resources into the mine schedule with the objective of maintaining annual production at over 4 million pounds a year on an ongoing basis throughout the life of the mine. Additional high grade intersections have been recorded below the Zona 7 deposit, further supporting previous indications of continuity of mineralization beneath the current defined resource. Results from the final holes drilled in the current programme through the near-surface Zona 7 deposit (to a maximum depth of 271 metres) have reported grades consistent with, or higher than, the average grade of the Zona 7 resource. This latest drilling supports the results from holes drilled over the past year in which high grade intersections up to 14 metres @ 4,481 ppm U3O8 were reported. These results further demonstrate continuity of mineralisation beneath the current defined resource, with potential for the resource to increaseand lead to a resource upgrade. The Company will conduct additional drilling and resource estimation work at Zona 7 aimed at increasing the mineral resource estimate and unlocking further value in this exceptional deposit. Exploration activity will focus on discovering mineralisation similar to the Zona 7 deposit which is located close to surface and without a strong radiometric anomaly present. Drill targets will be identified using a combination of techniques including ionic leach, ground geochemistry, radon emission and detailed structural mapping. Exploration joint venture discussions continue The Company has progressed discussions with potential exploration joint venture partners. The orebodies currently being developed cover less than 10% of the 1,160km² license areas which are located within a highly prospective uranium region and which remain largely underexplored. Given the Companys current focus on the construction of the mine, discussions have continued with strategic partners to fund an exploration joint venture designed to delineate additional resources to extend the mine life or expand production. The partners would be expected to bring extensive multi commodity exploration experience and the very latest expertise that could be applied to the large body of structural and mineralizing events at the mine. The exploration joint venture would cover only Berkeleys exploration tenements and would not affect ownership of deposits currently within the mine plan. The Company will make an announcement if an agreement is executed. Alternatively, the Company will continue to pursue its own exploration activities aimed at extending the mine life or expanding future production. Strong interest from financiers and strategic partners The Company is in a strong financial position and is considering a range of financing options whilst remaining focused on its aim of minimizing dilution in order to protect the equity value of its shareholders. As previously advised, the Company is not considering project finance, which would require the Company to lock in fixed price uranium contracts at current low prices. Uranium markets have improved in 2017 and further off-take contracts will be entered into in the ordinary course of business as development activities continue. The Company continues to progress discussions with various potential strategic partners and financiers interested in taking a minority stake in the Salamanca mine, all of whom are currently undertaking detailed legal, financial and technical due diligence. Commitment to the community The Company continues to be committed to the rejuvenation of the local community and being a good neighbour and community business partner. The Company has already invested some 70 million in the area over the past decade and is planning to invest an additional 250 million in the coming years as the mine develops. The Company has been by far the biggest investor in a rural community suffering from decades of under investment and high levels of unemployment, especially amongst its youth. The Company has made a commitment to the local community via a cooperation agreement with the highly supportive local municipalities. It is committed to supporting the local communities and has installed a Wifi network for the villagers and sponsored various local sporting events and festivals. Employment and training The policy of preferentially hiring and training local residents has been very well received with the training programmes continuing to be heavily oversubscribed; to date, over 120 locals have attended courses organized by the Company and 25% of residents from the local area have applied for jobs. The Company has received over 21,000 applications for the first 200 direct jobs it will create. The mine will create over 450 jobs once in full production and the University of Salamanca has estimated that for this type of business there will be a multiplier factor of 5.1 indirect jobs for every direct job created, resulting in over 2,500 direct and indirect jobs being created as a consequence of the Companys investment in the area. This month, the Company announced that it has begun the hiring process to add a further 25 employees to its team at the Salamanca project bringing the total number of employees to close to 70. The candidates will start on site next month, carrying out activities such as fencing the project, preparing for the next exploration campaign and preparing the 50 hectare plot in Vitigudino for reforestation activities and readying other areas of the site to allow for imminent construction. Training programmes will continue to run throughout the year to ensure that sufficient people from the local communities are qualified for jobs created during the construction and mining phases. Last week, the Company conducted a Health and Safety training course providing vital information to potential future employees from the area on safety procedures on a mine site. The course was heavily oversubscribed and enthusiastically attended. Commitment to raising the number of women employees- The Company remains committed to diversity and inclusion throughout all levels of the business. The Company recognizes that an inclusive and diverse workforce leads to increased productivity and better relationships with the communities in which we operate. The Company has been championing gender diversity over the past decade, as evidenced by the high number of women employed throughout the various levels of the Company. Currently nearly 40% of the team in Spain are women and the Company is committed to raising this number and proportion over the coming years. Permitting update There is strong support for the Salamanca mine from the EU down to the local municipalities. To date, the Company has received more than 90 favourable reports and permits for the development of the mine. The Company is fully permitted for all the work it is currently carrying out in preparation for full construction. With the Mining Licence and Environmental Licence already obtained, the next approvals comprise the locally issued Urbanism Licence and the Construction Authorization by the Ministry of Industry, Energy and Tourism for the treatment plant as a radioactive facility, and which are currently in process.
