About the Vidalita and Jotahues Gold Projects, Maricunga Belt, Chile
The Vidalita and Jotahues gold projects are located in the Maricunga gold belt in the Atacama Region
in northern Chile hosting numerous world class gold and silver projects. Emu’s projects cover an area
of approximately 135.7 km2 secured by mineral exploration concessions and host alteration and
mineralisation that appear geologically similar to other high sulphidation gold deposits of the
Maricunga gold belt. The projects are accessed using a network of roads that link Copiapó with the
Refugio project (Kinross), Cerro Casale project (Barrick/Goldcorp) and the Caspiche project
(Goldcorp). Refugio is located 30 km to the northwest of Vidalita.
The Company holds an option (Option) to acquire a 100% interest in certain of the Vidalita and
Jotahues concession packages from two Chilean companies.
The concessions are the subject of the Option comprise 2 packages: one package, (the Prospex SpA
concessions) covers six concessions at Vidalita, is subject to a 2% NSR on any production, and the
second package, (the BLC SpA concessions) comprised of three concessions at Jotahues and two
concessions at Vidalita (Vidalota A&B), is subject to a 1% NSR.
An Option payment of US$100,000 is due in November 2018 if Emu elects to continue with the
project. The Option may be exercised in November 2019 on payment of US$2M following
expenditure of US$1M, the issue of 2.5M Emu shares and then if Emu defines: (i) 0.5Moz of gold
in measured resources, a further 5M ordinary shares will be issued; and (ii) 1Moz of gold in measured
resources, a further 5M ordinary shares will be issued.
Emu continues to look for new mineral exploration, development and mining opportunities within
Australia and at various overseas jurisdictions.
