Raiden Resources (ASX:RDN) Managing Director's Commentary on Mt Sholl Ni-Cu-PGE Project

This transaction is in line with our stated objective of generating maximum value for shareholders from our entire portfolio of projects, while management's key focus remains the realization of value from the LCT projects in the Pilbara. The Mt Sholl project is the largest, and currently the only open-pitable, Ni-Cu-PGE sulphide resource in the district and may have the potential to unlock a district scale opportunity for development. The current resource and JORC Exploration Target are based on ~85,000 meters of drilling, along with other technical studies undertaken over the past several decades. Work to date has demonstrated the potential for an increase in mineralization, with all deposits being open along strike and to depth. We look forward to working with the FQMA team, which brings, not only the ability to fund future exploration programs, but also a wealth of technical experience in exploration and development of Nickel-Copper sulphide deposits.
