Financial Results IMC Exploration Group PLC (IMCP) for the twelve months to 30th June 2016
Dear Shareholder,
The directors of IMC Exploration Group plc (‘IMC’) are pleased to present the Financial Results for IMC for twelve months to 30th June 2016.
World developments in recent times have had an encouraging effect on the mining sector and IMC is in a position to benefit from these developments. The rising price of gold and zinc since the beginning of the year is very reassuring but we are also very mindful of, and encouraged by, the results of an Irish Government sponsored Tellus geological survey.
Earlier this year, the Geological Survey of Ireland (GSI) released the Tellus Survey, revealing higher than expected values of gold and platinum in the stream and rivers of Counties Wicklow and Wexford in south east Ireland. All five of IMC’s precious metal prospecting licences in Wicklow and Wexford are sited centrally in the survey region, the very licence areas that we continue to explore with our joint venture partners, Koza Limited (a subsidiary of the gold mining major, Koza Altin Isletmeleri AS).
We are delighted to report that The Tellus Survey confirms high levels of gold in streams near the Gold Mine River and Avoca region of Wicklow. This justifies, confirms and validates the current geological exploration programme underway with Koza Limited.
IMC is currently evaluating a number of approaches from international mining companies in relation to its base metal licences. These advances have come as a result of a resurgence of interest in the base metal sector in Ireland, leaving IMC well positioned to take advantage of this via our 10 base metal licences, through the imminent implementation of our base metal Work’s Programme.
IMC continues to make excellent progress in its exploration and corporate activities. We look forward to the coming weeks and months with enthusiasm.
This is a great time for gold and base metals and is an exciting time for IMC.”

No amortisation has been charged in the period. The directors have reviewed the carrying value of the exploration and evaluation assets and consider it to be fairly stated and not impaired at 30 June 2016. The recoverability of the exploration and evaluation assets is dependent on the successful development of the group’s licence areas. | |||||||
