Company Announcements Office Australian Stock Exchange Limited 4th Floor, 20 Bridge Street, SYDNEY NSW 2000
During the September 15 quarter, Bounty Mining Limited ('Bounty') generated an operating cash outflow of $0.03m (previous quarter cash outflow of $0.3m). As the Company is in a development phase for the Wongai project, continued negative cash flows are expected.
By agreement with the directors, no Non-Executive director fees were paid during the quarter.
Due to the difficulty in raising capital, the Company's was unable to progress the Wongai project during the period.
In July 2015 the Company's Continuous Miner and its spare parts were sold to a private purchaser for
$0.25m and $0.05m respectively, which the board considers to be a fair value in the current market. This represented a significant variance to the Written Down Value. A company vehicle was also sold.
During Financial Year 2015 Bounty borrowed $17k from a company associated with its Chairman and CEO Gary Cochrane. This was short-term working capital loan unconnected to the Company's major loan facility. This loan was partially repaid during the September 2015 quarter
While the Company remains in active discussion with a number of interested parties regarding other financing options, no funding commitments have been received at the time of release of this document.
The directors cannot be certain therefore that sufficient capital will be raised to fund the Company's existing commitments or any future activities.
GeneralBounty has kept the market informed of developments as they have occurred and / or reached disclosable certainty. Bounty will continue to meet its obligations under Listing Rule 3.1.
The company has not received any information that would alter the results of the previously announced JORC reports.
