RNS Number : 6168Q Asiamet Resources Limited 27 January 2026
27 January 2026
Asiamet Resources Limited
("Asiamet" or the "Company")
Update on Proposed Sale of Indokal (KSK Project)
and
Beutong Project Update
Asiamet Resources Limited (AIM: ARS) is pleased to provide an update on the
status of the conditions precedent relating to the proposed sale of its
interest in Indokal Limited ("Indokal"), which owns a 100% indirect interest
in the KSK Project and associated BKM Copper Project ("KSK"), to Norin Mining
(Hong Kong) Limited ("Norin Mining"), as announced on 6 November 2025. The
Company also provides an update on the Beutong Project.
Indokal (KSK Project) Sale - Conditions Precedent Progress
As previously announced, completion of the sale is subject to, inter alia:
(a) approval of the sale by the Company's shareholders;
(b) customary Chinese regulatory approval required by Norin Mining; and
(c) other transaction-specific conditions relating to KSK.
The Company provides the following update on progress:
· Shareholder approval: The proposed disposal remains subject to
approval by shareholders of Asiamet at the General Meeting due to be held on
29 January 2026.
· Chinese regulatory approval: Norin Mining has confirmed to the
Company that it has completed the submission of all the required materials for
the relevant Chinese regulatory approval. The application is currently under
review by the relevant authorities, and, based on customary approval
timelines, Norin Mining has indicated that it expects this approval to be
obtained in February 2026.
· Other transaction-specific conditions: Progress continues on
seeking to satisfy the remaining transaction-specific conditions relating to
KSK, including relevant Indonesian regulatory processes. The Company does not
currently anticipate any material issues in relation to these processes.
The Company will provide further updates to the market as appropriate as the
remining conditions precedent continue to progress.
Beutong Project
The Company remains focused on advancing the Beutong Project in line with its
development objectives.
In December 2025, the Aceh region of Indonesia, where the Beutong Project is
located, experienced severe and widespread flooding, which resulted in
significant disruption to communities and regional infrastructure. During this
period, engagement with local and regional authorities was temporarily
deprioritised, as government focus shifted to recovery and restoration of
essential services.
With regional recovery efforts now progressing, the Company remains committed
to advancing the optimal pathway for Beutong and has resumed discussions with
the relevant authorities.
The Company will continue to keep shareholders informed as appropriate.
