The following announcement as released on the ASX today and is set out for your

ALLIED GOLD LIMITED SUBSIDIARY COMMENCES DAMAGES CLAIM AGAINST INTERMET
ENGINEERS (PTY) LTD AND MR GARRY THOMAS
Allied Gold Limited advises that its wholly owned subsidiary Simberi Gold
Company Ltd ("SGC") has commenced legal recovery action against Intermet
Engineers (Pty ) Ltd ("Intermet") and Mr Garry Thomas, a former director of
Intermet, in respect to breaches of a contract entered into between Simberi and
Intermet whereby Intermet were contracted to design, procure and manage the
construction of gold processing and related facilities for the Simberi Oxide
Gold Project located on Simberi Island in Papua New Guinea.
The agreement contained a number of express terms relevant to specific
performance of the agreement and the successful delivery of the throughput
pursuant to the design and specifications of the plant.
Simberi claims that Intermet is in breach of the express and implied terms of
the contract and Intermet and Mr Garry Thomas have engaged in false, misleading
and deceptive conduct.
By reason of the breaches of the express and implied terms of the agreement,
Simberi has suffered loss and damage and accordingly has now lodged a claim in
The Supreme Court of Western Australia for damages which is estimated to be not
less than AUD$12 million in total as well as damages for contraventions of the
Trade Practices Act, Fair Trading Act, interest and costs.
